RICH COAL DEPOSITS
BILLIONS OF TONS OF Ignite
uNDERLIE LANDS OF STATE.
Can Supply It's Own Fuel Needs for
Hundreds Of Years to
Come,

That the western part Of North Da-
kota is heavily underlain with beds of
Ignite coal of high grade has been a
matter of common knowledge for many
years, but any systematic develop
ment of these vast resources has been
matter of only comparatively recent
years.
Governmental surveys disclose that
at least $4,000 square miles are un-
derlain with deposits Of this splendid
fuel, the available quantity being esti-
mated at five hundred billion tons.
Mining of this fuel was begun at first
in small way, but each year now
sees a vast increase in the output UNI
til the average now reaches 100000
tons and is steadily increasing. This
product is used as fuel by all the state
institutions and is furnished to large
and ever-increasing number of domes-
tic and industrial consumers.
A Valuable Fuel.
AS fuel Ignite is thoroughly rec
ognized to be of great value. Recent
experiments have been successful in
producing briquette, stable and
weatherproof, of about the same spe.
cific gravity as anthracite coal, equal
to the latter in heating power and de-
liverable outside the door of the con-
sumner at a price below that Of any
eastern coal. This cost is figured with.
out taking into consideration the value
of by-products procured during the
process of manufacture which would
still further reduce the price at which
it could be profitably sold. Several
plants now exist for the manufacture
of these briquettes and more are in
contemplation.
For production of fuel and illumi-
mating gas this coal possesses value
superior to almost any other variety,
and when the vast deposits underlying
thousands Of square miles in western
North Dakota are recalled. some con-
ception may be formed of the vast
wealth now lying beneath the surface
awaiting development.

LITTLE GIRL SAVES SISTER

Rolette-Esther Arnard, years old,
made her way into the smoke-filled
blazing home of her father and moth
er, near Belcourt, N. D., and carried
out her 15-month-old sister, who had
been left in her charge. Then she
ran for aid to save the home, but
was too late and it burned to the
ground.
The little girl was in the garden
when the fire started. She ran to
the door and tried to get into the
bedroom, where the baby was.
Flames drove her back and out. She
stumbled choking, to the side of the
house, and with her tiny hands she
smashed window pane and crawled
into the smoke-filled room and reached
the baby's crib.

NATIONAL GUARD OF STATE

The people of North Dakota are
Justly proud of their regiment Of Ma

ent about eight hundred members, in
GLIDING officers, and consisting Of the
following organizations: Twelve COM
panies of infantry, a machine gun
company, a hospital corps and a band.
The North Dakota regiment ranks
among the very best in the United
States, and according to government
reports is in very high standing for
efficiency and discipline. It is equipped
exceptionally well in every respect,
with the latest models Of guns and
paraphernalia, while some Of its mem
beers bear the honor of being among
the keenest sharpshooters in the Unit
ed States army, navy or National
Guard. The state camp grounds are
ideal and are reputed in army circles
as being the most beautiful in the
Northwest. Nearly every organization
has an up-to-date armory, well built
and spacious, with officers quarters.
drill halls, storerooms, gymnasiums,
bathrooms, and all necessary equip
ment. Nearly every member of the
regiment 10 an athlete Of no mean
ability.
In 1898 the state sent 71S men, which
was more than its quota, to the Phil
ippines. The regiment made most
enviable record, participating in 81 en-
gagements and penetrating farther
into the interior than any other volun-
teer regiment. So valiant were their
deeds that upon one occasion General
Lawton gave utterance to his we'll
known statement: "You can't STAN

Every North Dakotan can and
should be Justly proud of his citizen

home and lives 1t stands without
chance of dispute that every man Of

To Finish Medora Bridge In February.
Dickinson.-The work on the Red
Trail bridge at Medora is going along
without hitch and should the wealth
ar remain mild until the first of the
wear as it often does in this country,
the Bridge Company will probably fin
ish it's contract about the first OF
February. This, however, would be
the earliest possible date, as heavy
construction bridge work like this nee
essarily goes slowly. This bridge
across the Little Missouri river has
three spans of 1$5 feet each. The
east abutment is completed.
