Paul. Two years later, with flat
bottomed steamer he established the
first regular communication with St.
Paul and the Manitoba ports Of the
fertile Red River Valley.
The st. Paul, Minnesota and Mani
toba Railway was formed to operate
the property, with Hill as general
manager. When in 1888 Mr.. Hill was
elected president he undertook the ex-
tension of the road from its Dakota
and Minnesota homestead to the Pa
cific ocean He was confronted by
three great competitors to the south,
each of which had received big bonuses
as government aid, whereas the MAN
itoba" or the Great Northern, as it
came to be known, did not have dol
lar of government subsidy or an acre
of grant to forward its progress from
the Minnesota boundary to the sea.
In this light, Hills plan was widely
deemed pure folly, but he pressed it to
conclusion by building and populating
as he built. For several years he laid
rails westward at the rate Of a mile a
day, and at cost of 100000 mile,
and as he went he left trail of en-
bryonic farms by the railside.
While Mr.. Hill built up for himself
and his associates an immense fortune,
he also helped to create for the settlers
along his lines a wealth of over five
billion dollars in real property, which
is represented by the value of the
400 900 farms and their 65,000,000 acres
Of improved land.
Upon his retirement, at So. the
"streak of rust" he had bought 30
years before, had expanded to more
than 5000 miles and it was earning
gross profits of more than $66,0O0, 900
year, and carrying 15.000.O00 tons
OF freight annually. He still retained
hand in the Great Northern's policy
as chairman of the board of directors
while his son Louis. who had worked
up from the humblest position of his
fathers railroad became president.
The secret of the Hill success was-no
secret at all, according to Mr. Hill
and he had no new recipes to offer
.The man with the big opportunity
today" he said, ais the man in the
ranks" But the secret of failure he
frequently declared to be extravaganza
he regarded this as a national tend
ency, against which he strongly set
himself, particularly as concerned the
natural resources.
During his active supervision of the
Great Northern system. Mr.. Hill over
saw almost every detail. to the wonder
of all employees with whom he came
in contact. A fugitive instance of his
recognition in his own country is the
story of a tourist who declares tha
there Pre- afloat in the Swedish sec
tion OF the Northwest upwards of 10,
900 different stories in Swedish dialec

PLUNCER ON PISTOL
SAVES WOMAN'S LIFE
RATE HUSBAND SNAPS SEVERAL
TIMES, BUT CAP FAILS
TO EXPLODE.

That Mrs. Charlie Rowell, better
known as Margaret Hill. member of
the notorious East Pine street family,
the members of which have caused
the police and local charitable organi-
cations so much worry for the last
several months, is alive today, is due
to the fact that the pistol which her
husband snapped at her yesterday,
was defective one.
In police court this morning the
woman produced the pistol the plum
ger of which was defective. There
was single cartridge in it, the cap
Of which was badly dented, showing
that the hammer had struck it repeat
edly, without effect
Rowell, who has been employed in
the Sanford strawberry fields for some
weeks, was in court, charged with car
rying concealed weapon, and with
assault and battery. The wife was
the chief complainant. She declared
that she and Rowell were married last
August, but that they lived together
but three days. She gave one reason
for the separation, while Rowell tes-
titled to an entirely different one.
Rowell went to the Pine street home
yesterday morning, the woman testi-
fed, and drew the pistol on her, snap
ping it repeatedly. 1t failed to fire.
She wrested it from him, sent for the
police, and turned the weapon ever
to them.
The woman and her mother, Mrs.
NJ. M. Hill. had engaged Attorney
Duncan Draughn to prosecute the
case. Rowell swore that the woman
obtained the pistol on a bed in the
room, and then called for her mother.
declaring that she had taken it from
him.
The minimum fine OF $25 and costs
for carrying concealed weapon was
given. The assault and battery charge
was dismissed.
Dilemma for Mayor.
Ernest Carter, negro elevator boy
in the Carter building, was in Police
Court this morning on charge Of as.
sault and battery, carrying concealed
weapons, and profanity. He plead
guilty to the profanity charge, and
denied the others. Attorney Claud
Hill represented him. The mans wife
took the stand in the concealed weap
on case. MIR. Hill objected to her tes
tifying, and produced law showing
that wife cannot testify against he
husband in such case. The Mayo
said that if Mr.. Hill was correct, h
had made mistake in the precedin
Rowell case. He took the attorney
word for it, and dismissed the cor
cealed weapon charge.
Rowell then came forward and Pre-
tested against his sentence, sayin
that his wife was the only witnes
against him when he was convicted
The Mayor took Rowelrs case unde
adyisement.
The negro elevator boy was fine
$3.50 on the profanity charge, aud di
charged on the assault and batter
charge.

self, threw open the townsite.
Although Lowden paid the two In
dams for the land, he never received
anything from the government as re-
endorsement for the townsite. The
case has been in litigation for the past
ten years, having been tried before
four different courts and in each in

during all this time titles to almost
three hundred holders Of town lots

Should the Ferris bill be enacted
It would enable all holders OF town
lots in Tuttle to secure patents, would
end all litigation over the matter and
strike down the barrier which has
operated against the growth and de-

Of the interior, and the attorney gen
eral, Representative Ferris is confident
that he can secure the enactment Of
