One Man Killed and Another Injured Yesterday
Evening.
A fatal accident occurred at the
Chaplin mine at Iron Mountain, about
four o'clock yesterday afternoon. While
John Nicielhausen. George Villa and
Charles Westerin were working ia the
ninth level OF d shaft, the support to the
tinbc'S gave way, percipItating con-
siderable loose ore into The level where
the men were working. Villa escaped
unhurt, but Westerin and Nierelhausen
were completely covered by the falling
ore and thinkers. a rescue crew went 20
work at once and about seven o'clock
last evening succeeded in rescuing
WESTERN who was under about two feet
Of ore, but. surprising as il may appear,
alive. Though severely, bruised, no
bones were broken and he was not fatal
ly injured.
John Nierelhausen was not taken out
until seven o'clock this morning. when
his dead body was found beneath n
mass oi ore and timbers. Nierelhauseu
was a member OF the Sons OF Herman
and the funeral will occur tomorrow
afternoon under the auspices OF that
order

TAX TITLES Are VALID.
In The Opinion OF the Sup emc Court Tax Title
Of 1904 a c Good

In the Opinion OF the Sup enc Court Tax Titles
Of 1863 e Good
The supreme court OF the state de
cded ON Tuesday ~ question ol the
greatest interest to holders Of tax titles,
the ease in point being that oi Peter
Muirhcad W.. LOuls Sands, the Manistce
lumberman.
In january. 1898, tho complainant
became the purchaser from the state,
of the land la controversy, under a taN
decd the state having become the
purchaser ut the annual tax sale m
December, 1898 The lands had been
sold for the delinquent taxes Tor the
year 1891 aud the bill was lilcd to
quiet complainanps title under his tax
decd.
In the opinion, which WAS written by
Justice Montgomery, and concurrcd IN
by the entire bench, the tax INV is gone
through pretty thoroughly, and it Is held
that the sale was reg glar, and that tax
titles OF 1891 are good. The sales under
the law OF 1893 are correct The Cpn-
ion says, IN substance, tnat NO sale can
be set aside after confirmation, except
ing where they were paid or where prop.
crty WAS exempt. This makes tax titles
perfect where proceedings subsequent to
the decree are regular.
The opinion says this construction Of
the law may, i'm particular cases, work a
hardship, but the law is the Outgrowth
OF many years OF investigation and cX-
porience, aud WIS conceived by law
makers TO bc the beat measure which
could be adopted, having IN view the
purpose OF compelling the owners 60 pny
taxes promptly, and il is not the
province OF the court. To frittcr away its
plain provisions 10y forced construction.
