AGED MAN FOUND DEAD Andrew Engstrom, Settler Near Tenstrike, Died Yesterday Morning. WAS RETURNING HOME WITH FOUR COMPANIONS. Body Was Discovered Lying by Roadside—Coroner Marcum to Investigate. The dead body of Andrew Eng- strom, a homesteader living five miles north of Tenstrike, was found yesterday morning at 9 o’clock lying by the road over which he was passing while re- turning home from Tenstrike. Engstrom, in company with four companions, Peter Thomp- son, Ralph Adamson, Peter Has- ener and Joe Lerum, the latter two homesteaders near Tenstrike arrived in Tenstrike Saturday. They remained about'town dur- ing the day and set out for their homes at 5 o’clock in the after- noon. Thompson, Hasener road ina wagon while Engstrom and Adamson followed behind. When they had reached a point two and one-half miles north of Tenstrike Engstrom stopped and he was found dead the next morning by a fire which he had evidently built to keep warm by and which was not yet quite burned out. The body was found by a man named Fred. erickson, who immediately re- ported the affair in Tenstrike. Fred Wilson, a liveryman at Ten- strike, went out and viewed the body of the dead man and after- wards notified Sheriff Bailey and Coroner Marcum in Bemidji. The coroner instructed him to remove the body to Tenstrike, where it was taken yesterday and lies at the city hall awaiting the arrival of the coroner, who will go to Tenstrike tonight to make an investigation ‘of the circum- stances surrounding the death of the man. The party of five men of which Engstrom was a member visited several saloons during their stay in Tenstrike, and the last place in which they were drinking be- fore their departure was at Stur- | devant’s saloon, They were in good humor, however,and it is not suspected that foul play is in any way connected with the death of the homesteader. Bemidji Defeated. The Bemidji base ball team went to Blackduck Saturday night, where they were defeated yesterday afternoon ina game with Blackduck by a score of 9 to 5. The Bemidji team was made up largely of picked up players, only a small portion of the regu- lar men being in the lineup, and this is said to be responsible for Blackduck’s victory. MORE ORE SPECIMENS of Iron Taken From Vein Near Gemmel. NO DOUBT THAT LARGE DE- POSIT IS THERE. Mr. Martin Says Indications of Ore Extend For Ten Miles Along M. & L. R H. Martin of Grand Rapids is in Bemidji today on his way home from the vicinity of Gem- mell, where he has spent several weeks. During his stay at Gem- mell Mr. Martin became inter- ested in the stories circulated to the effect that a large iron de- posit existed in the yicinity of Gemmell, and spent some time investigating the reports. The result of his investigation was that he became thoroughly con- vinced that iron ore existed in no small quantities. He exhibited several specimens of ore in Be. Lerum and:midji today which were taken from the vein discovered by Peter McHugh, and stated that there was undoubtedly a bright future for that section as a min- ing country. “I have been all through that part of the country,” said Mr, Martin, ‘‘and have looked into the matter quite thoroughly. The more Linvestigated the more I he- came convinced that there was a large iron deposit near Gemmell which, when developed, will com- pare with other iron mines throughout the state. Ore indi- cations exist for 10 miles along the line of the M. & I.,-and for all this distance can be seen pieces of ore that have been thrown up out of the ground from the ditches on each side of the railway.”’ Mr, Martin has had consider- able experience as a mining man and his conviction that an iron deposit exists near Gemmell lends color to the reports hereto- fore published.

PRSI L SHOL 1% | The Kennewick Irrigating Canal Is located at the very gateway of | the Yakima Valley, which is ad-} mittedly one of the best irriga- tion propositions in the United States. Standing as it does, at the extreme east of the valley, and almost at th~ junction of the Yakima River with the Columbia, it has a season which is from two to three weeks earlier than the upper part. Smail fruits and berries are an especially profit- | able crop, and on account of their ripening early, command the highest price in the market. For the same reason, canteloupes are grown at Kennewick in great profusion, and inasmuch as they ripen from two to three weeks earlier than the Colorado cantel- oupes, they are in great demand. Land can stlll be purchased at; reasonable prices, but is being very rapidly taken up, and those who wish to locate in this valley had better secure their land there at as early adate as pos- sible, The climate is very mild and healthful, and is particularly beneficial to persons afflicted with bronchial or catarrhal troubles.
