Construction OF the proposed new
bridge to meet present and future
prospects was urged. The navigation
interests suggested that the bridge
should not be built without a draw.
and that the clearance under it be six
ty-five feet. with a fifty-foot width of
waterway Nearly all the present nav
igation would clear the bridge without
requiring an opening of the draw if con-
structed on that plan.

the company had lost contracts because
of the added cost of reloading stone
farther down river.
j. H. Crawford, president of the Gran

concern also owned quarries on the up

inactive. He told of having been unable

British at Front Hopeful.

LONDON, June 20.-The Times mill
tary correspondent in France writes
that the opinion on the British front is
most optimistic that the war will be
brought to a successful conclusion dur
ing the year 1916. The feeling of OPP
timism. he says. is based largely on the
following factors:
Continually lgrowing numbers of men
and quantities of munitions on the entente
front; the extraordinary successes of
the Russian armies; the arresting of
the Austrian offensive in Trentino; the
silencing of the German navy through
the sea battle off Jutland: the exhaus-
ton of the German reserves, as indi
Gated by the calling up of seventeen
year-old youths, and the use of prison

ditions are favorable to u.s. and it only
remains for generalship and hard
lighting to take advantage of them

GRAND JURY ADJOURNS

After having been in session six
days, the Grand Jury adjourned
: last Friday morning after submit
ting the following report to Judge
Young: ..
=, eve, the grand jury, for the April
term, 1916, would most respectfully
report that we have been in session
six days; have diligently inquired
into the few violations of the law
which were brought to our atten-
ton and returned into court indict-
tments where the facts justified.
We find, however, that there was
very little lawlessness to investi-
gate. In fact, our county appears
to be in the cleanest and most
peaceful condition of any in the
State. We feel our citizens are en-
titled to congratulations upon this
condition and truly hope the next
grand jury may find things equally
as favorable. Me believe this is
due, in the main, to the impartial,
rigorous and prompt manner in
which the local city and county
officers are enforcing the law.
BY direction of your Honor, we
have made a special effort to as
certain whether any one has been
operating any game of chance since
the last term of this court and
have been unable to secure any
evidence to sustain an indictment
for either maintaining such a game
or gambling in any manner and
our investigation leads us to be-
lieve that the practice has been

MADE NOSE FOR A GIRL
Surgeons Manufactured One Required
by Child Of Twelve, Born
Without One.

A nose, which in lines and SYM
metry compares favorably with the
natural variety, has been manufac-
turcd from soupbone by surgeons
at Samaritan hospital at philadcl-
phia for twelve-year-old girl.
The girl was born without nose.
Her parents refrained from taking
her out in public because of the at
tention her deformity attracted.
Surgeons at the Samaritan hospital
decided that the girl could have a
nose like any other person. DR.. W.
Wayne Babcock carved a nose along
Greek lines from a soupbone.
An incision was made in the from
tai bone of the skull and the soup
bone nose securely fixed in position.
Then the flesh of the face was
stretched so that it covered the soup
bone. Nostrils were pierced in the
flesh, and the child was able to
breathe freely through the new nose.
In few days she will be able to
leave the hospital.

Night before last we had a
chance to experience some of the
vagaries of North Dakota
weather. For several days it
seemed spring was on the job.
Tuesday night, however, a heavy

quickly followed by light snow.
Yesterday morning it looked like
real weather again.
Rumors of accidents were cur.

port had it that a girl had been
drowned in the Beaver. Ii later
developed that the girl had gone
into the creek, horse and all, but
had gotten out again safely.
Gus Wudke crossed the wagon
bridge across the Beaver south of
Linton yesterday. One of the
tugs became unlocked and he
had to get out of the rig. The
water was nearly up to his Shout

going back and made a detour of
several miles, going out of Linton
to the west.

their meetings are open to all pa

their attention than to expect
the superintendent to adjust them

High Water
Causes Deaths

Fred Laut is reported to have
been drowned in the creek which
runs just south of Braddock and
which under ordinary conditions
is nota very important stream.
However, according to the limited
information which it has been
possible to secure, Laut and a
companion were attempting to
cross the bridge on the main road
which was under water. The
horses walked off the edge and
both men and horses were lost.
It was stated that one of the bod,
les had not been recovered. All
attempts to communicate with
Braddock by telephone yesterday
were unavailing, as the wires
were down.
High water is causing trouble
this spring, although about the
only damage reported so far is to
bridges on the Northern Pacific
branch north. Tuesday night
the north train failed to arrive
and it was discovered that
bridges north of Hazelton had
been washed out Tuesday after
the train had passed over them.
Conductor Tom Fergus 'phoned
yesterday that they could not
possibly expect to get home be-
fore tonight. and perhaps not
then. Yesterday morning the
Beaver had raised so far that the
Schott residence south of town
was completely surrounded and
