The railroad man then recognized that he was dealing with a man of determination. He was angered, and suggested that Arnold could not do any businees if the railroad refused to mike special rates for excursionists.

In the meantime the Milwaukee had financed the construction of a rival resort on a sandy beach on the other shore, but it was subjected to the fiercest rays of the sun in the summer and failed to prosper. It had served to embiter Arnold the more, however. The Milwaukee envoy was prepared to pay $30,000 last April and end the controversy once for all.

"My price is $40,000," replied Arnold. "Never," answered the rilroad man. "We'll take off all our excursion trains and allow no special rates first." "Very well. My price has gone up to $50,000, if that's the way you feel about it." The railroad men had another think coming and offered to pay the "Never!" thundered Arnold.

Arnold Forced by Death to Give Up Fight Against a Railroad. Sioux City, November 10. 'My greatest regret in leaving this life is that I am no longer able to continue my fight with the Milwaukee railroad. It never had enough money to buy my little tract here so long as I lived, and I hate to think that it will be possible after I am gone." Five hours before his eyes closed jn death W. 'B.

Arnold, founder and owner of Arnold's park, the summer resort, at Lake Okoboji, which he valued at. gave utterance' to the foregoing passionate declaration of his undying hatred of the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad. Arnold's death at Arnold's Park a week ago removed one of the best known pioneers and one of the unique characters who have contributed to the development of the great Hawk-eye state. 'For twenty years he waged, single handed, a contest with the railway.

His little farm occupied the most desirable part. of the shore, and contained practically all the natural woodland to be found on the "beautiful lake. When the Milwaukee road decided to extend its line to this summer resort it assumed that it would have no difficulty in buying this land. But Arnold had ideas of his own regarding a fair price for his land. He demanded The railroad would pay only $5,000.

He would not yield. Very well, he might think it over. Another year rolled by and the representative of the Milwaukee thought that he could have his price. "But my price is $10,000 now," said Arnold. "Come now.

Take $7,500 and we'll call it a bargain," urged the railroad man. Arnold wouldn't hear to it. The railroad man threatened to start a. rival park on the other shore of the lake. Arnold laughed at him'.

There was no location that could compare with his, pud he defied the Milwaukee to go ahead. He insisted that he was asking only a fair price for the tract, as it was yielding him a big revenue, and increasing in value each year because of increased patronage of summer tourists. Two years later a high official of the Milwaukee came to Mr. Arnold and explained that he bore the olive branch. He said he wanted to apologize for his predecessor and was anxious to be 'reasonable.

He was willing to pay $10,000 for the place, though, he didn't think it worth it "My price is answered Arnold. "You must be' urged the railroad man. Arnold said he was in dead earnest.

From the Lock Haven Express. Clinton county is the Mecca for hunters from all parts of the state and it is safe to say that at least 200 camped in the mountains hereabouts last night, fully equipped for the onslaught on the deer, which began at daybreak this morning. As early as last Saturday deer hunting parties started for the mountains and they were followed by others, loaded down with tents, guns, ammunition, provender and a liberal sprinkling of dogs.

These parties were followed this morning by droves in squads of twos, threes and fours until it is safe to say that 500 men and boys are scouring the forests of the county to-day in search of seasonable game of all sorts. If no one is killed or injured through carelessness or mishap before the close of the month it will be ouiraculous. In all twenty hunting clubs, running from five to twelve men, went into Allegheny moutains and Seven Mountains from Centre county alone, while hunting parties from Philadelphia, Reading, Pittsburg, Punxsu-tawney, Clearfield', Altoona and Tyrone also went into camp on the Al-leghenies, so that 400 or 500 is a safe estimate those who are on the trail in that section.
