TRIM THE e


The following is the section of a
clause from a Mayville ordinance re-
Gently passed: st is hereby declared
that all overhanging branches of trees
extending into and over the streets of
the city of Mayville at a height of less
than eight feet above the sidewalks
therein, are an obstruction and an i'm
pediment to public travel and the con-
venient and proper use of said streets;
and all persons owning or occupying
lots or land along any of the public
streets of said city are hereby forbid
den to allow such branches of trees to
project On overhang any of said trees,
at a level less than eight feet above
the level Of the sidewalks of said city"
Bismarck has an ordinance providing
that trees shall be kept trimmed eight
feet above the walk, but in many
places branches Of trees project over
the walk at a lower height-making
dangerous distractions, especially at
night. Owners Of property should see
that trees are trimmed to the proper
height.

HOLMES FOR AUDITOR.

Pink Paper (Dem.): H. L. Holmes of
this plae. who received the nomination
for state auditor on the republican
ticket, is well fitted by business train
ing and natural ability for the posi-
ation given him. Our people, without
regard to political sentiment, appre-
;ciate the honor that was done the
town by selecting one of its leading
citizens for the important position of
state auditor. If he is elected the
people of the state can feel that the
affairs of that Office will be conducted
Intellectually and promptly. His nom
ination is not due to any effort on his
part, but anne as a compliment to the
man and. the county. He arrived home
ON Thursdays train on (which were a
large number of eXc~ursionists bound
for the Winnipeg exposition, among
whom&were a number of Hillsboro peo-
pie including the band. When the
train stopped at this place. the band,
under the direction of E. Y. Sarles of
Hillsbcro, filed onto the platform and
played a selection in honor of Mn.
Holmes. This little kindness on the
part of MIR. Sarles, the leader of the
opposition to the ticket nominated at
the state convention. was very nice
and was fully appreciated by the
friends Of Mr.. Holmes. The impress
sion left could be expressed by the old
cry. What's the matter with sarles?
He's all right"

DECAPITATED REMAINS OF MUIR
DERED MAN DISCOVERED AT

DECAPInATED REMAINS OF MUIR
DERED MAN DISCOVERED AT
DEVILS, LAKE,.
A Devils Lake special says: A most
four and revolving murder was discov-
cred late last night by Hans Wilson, a
laboTing man who went to call on Nick
5Nachtsheim, an old bachelor who was
living alone in his cottage in the south
part of the city.
After repeated raps for entrance
without receiving a response from in
side, Wilson raised the window and
lighting a match discovered that a
tragedy had been enacted He noti-
fled the officers and an investigation
disclosed that Nachtsheim had been
murdered and his body thrown into
the cellar.
A guard was placed over the house
for the remainder of the night and this
morning Sheriff Rutan impanelled a
jury and an inquest was ordered.
A horrible sight was presented when
the dead body was raised from the cell
lar to the room. The head was sew
cred from the shoulders and had a deep
bullet hole in it's crown. AS the body
was in a. bad state of decomposition, it
is evident the crime was committed at
least eight or ten days ago, and the
absence of any blood stains shows
that the man was killed outside and his
body placed in the cellar. The bullet
was found in the head and is of 3S
caliber.
The tragedy is shrouded in mystery
and the only motive apparent is rob
berry. Nachtsheim during the recent
Chatauqua season sold much beer and
must have had several hundred dollars
on his person when killed, but only IL
cents was found in his vest pocket this
morning. He was employed in the
Great Northern coal sheds and was
about IS years old and came here from
ST. Paul many years ago. He was d
a quiet. unassuming and peaceful dis.
position and was not known to have
had I'M enemies.
There is absolutely no clue to identif!
his murderers. although the officers ar
shadowing several suspicious charac
tiers. = q.

CARNEGIE FOR EAST SIDE PLAN
SAYS 1T WOULD NOT BE FAIR NOT TO PROVIDE FOR THAT
REGION-IEWlS VARY TO ROUTE.


said TO Tribune reporter that he had opposed
the passage of the proposed change in the West
Side subway because of the absence Of proper
provision for the East Side, and had only just
reached agreement in regard to the matter
on a verbal understanding that the other part
of the city would be cared for. He heartily
in favor Of the proposed subway. AS to the
route, he had not investigated the matter suf-
ficiently to feel able to express opinion, but
on the general subject of a subway for the East
Side there was room for two opinions.
1T is for the manifest advantage Of the peo-
pie Of congested part Of the city" said Alder
man Mccall. and East Side alderman, 1t
appears to me to be a mere matter of justice.
There is no good reason why anv discrimination
should be shown in the matter of rapid transit,
favoring section Of the town above another.
Time is just precious Frst-ave., as it is on
West Eni-ave.. and l shall support any meas
ure looking toward the attainment of proper
East Side facilities. You may quote me in favor
of The Tribunes plan as emphatically as you
please
Alderman P Chambers. of the XXvIIIth Dis
trict, declared himself in favor of any project
that helped the people.
Il think however" said Alderman Chambers.
that Ffrst-ave- would prove the best selection
as route. Lexington-ave is residential. and
it is quite possible that the property holders
would not care to have it torn up. Second-ave.
and Third-ave. Of course, have too much on
lnern ALREADY TO ADMIT OF anything more but
First-ave has further incumbrance than a
line Of horsecars. and il is in the midst of a
numerous population
Alderman T. F. Baldwin also favored the plan
on general lines. Il represent district that is
without millionaires," said he. but it requires
the same facilities of metropolitan life. And
whenever can stand up for the privileges of
my district and add u the conveniences and
comforts Of the people in it, you may be 1
will do So
Alderman James E. Gaffney was also in favor
OF The Tribune's plan. Il will vote for any
thing that favors the people," said Mr.. Gaffney.
If the subway would do that-and, though
have not given, the matter sufficient attention
yet to say positively, II seems to me it would
then / certainly in favor Of it,
