SHOT IN BOX CAR.

A man by the name of H. Sibbert hailing, he says, from Denver, Col., was brought to the city hospital this morning at an early hour suffering with a gun shot wound in his groin. He claims to have been working at Casselton and to have gotten into a freight car at Wheatland last night for a ride west. In the same car were two other men, and after the train had left the Jamestown yards, Sibbert, who was asleep, was awakened by the others and told to give up what property he possessed. The assailants covered him with a small revolver, but thinking to save his money Sibbert showed fight and in the row he was shot twice, the other bullet striking his shoulder blade but not cutting the skin to any extent. The men got away and the wounded man was brought to the hospital by the train crew. The bullet still remains in the wound. He claims to have family in Colorado, and had $6 and a gold watch which the robbers did not secure.

THE MOTHER KILLED.

Dickinson, N. D., Special.—A frightful accident occurred at a stock ranch north of this place. Mrs. Samuel Bierline went out for a ride with her two little boys. The horse became frightened and she was thrown from the wagon and instantly killed. The children were uninjured. The hired man saw that the horse was ungovernable and rode swiftly to the rescure, but arrived too late. The little boys were left by the dead mother while the rider went six miles for help.

Busiest Doctor in the Valley

In the matter of furnishing new recruits to the population the Golden Valley appears to be doing its share—holding its own, at least. On Thursday of last week the stork alighted at the home of S. L. Kleve, at Carlyle, and left a fine girl baby. On Friday the old bird was up north of the city at the home of Lije Smith and left with Mrs. L. P. Callender of Trotters a lusty man child. Tuesday he was at P. H. Outzen's, where a girl was left, and Wednesday he was right here in the city, at the Wisconsin Cafe, where Mr. and Mrs. F. J. Essene were made happy over the donation of a female child. All in all, it has been a busy week for old Doc Stork.
