A young man named Fred Betz was killed at Fort Rice last Thursday morning. He had gone to the barn to harness his team preparatory to going to Mandan, and one of the horses kicked, striking him above the heart, killing him almost instantly. The funeral was held yesterday, and interment made in the Fort Rice cemetery. Much sympathy is expressed for the mother, who is almost heartbroken.
