heavy snow storm the middle OF March
followed by heavy rains the latter part
Of the month has saturated the SOIL TO

Skeleton OF MastodOn.

The museum at the University OF
North Dakota will within a short
time receive a-specimen in the form
of the skeleton of a maStudOn, which
Prof. Brannon says is the largest one
in the United States at least, and he
thinks it is the largest in the world.
The skeleton was dug up in a swamp
in Ontario, Canada, about 20 years
ago.
Prof. Brannon states that the
dimensions of The animal must have
been immense, and that it is consider
ably larger than the largest one IN
this country, the specimen known as
the ,Newbury skeleton in the Boston
museum. The animal must have
stood at least 16 feet high, and
weighed $4,000 pounds. The bones
alone weighed l,50O pounds after being
perfectly d,y. The skeleton is re-
markably perfect, there being but
very few of the bones missing. One
of the tusks is complete and measures
IA feet. The lower jaw bone is also
complete with all the teeth still in
place. The thigh bone is IS inches
long. and the ball in the ball and
socket thigh joint is larger Than a per-
sons head.

granted the franchise the company
will build a complete plant and engage
in business. The council was asked
to refer to places where the company
is doing business.
The ordinance was read and the
proposed rates are very reasonable.
The plant will be in operation Aug.
1st, in case the council passes the
ordinance.
The bid of the American Well
Works of Aurora, ILL.,, offering 20
cents per foot for the we'll pipe the
city has on hand was on motion re-
jected.
The matter of the case Of Gottlieb
Schulz against the city for damages
was up for consideration and the gen
eral opinion seemed that it would be
best to secure settlement with
Schulz without any law. Schulz in
jured his arm by a fall on defective
sidewalk. City Attorney Thorp was
empowered to make settlement
The ordinance relating to an $4,000
bond issue passed and the auditors
salary ordinance also was passed.
Attorney Thorp stated that he be-
lieved the city had good case against
Hall in the road matter. Hall fenced
up road the city claims has been
used so long that it has become pub
lie highway.
The water committee which had
been investigating the water question
found that there were Al consumers
who had paid during the quarter end
ing March 81, and that 47 had not
paid In three months but about
$3.50 had been received while it cost
the city sl55 per month for water.
The committee recommended that
the water commissioner call on all
those in arrears and if they did not
pay have the water shut off.
Klaus said in the last quarter there
were Al water consumers who had
paid, in the previous quarter A and
in the quarter previous to that Al.
He believed that they should be made
to either pay at once or go. without
city water.
Chapman thought there was some
thing wrong somewhere when the sys.
tenn was far from being self-support-
ing. He felt that it was matter Of
considerable Importance and should
be acted on at once. Chenery said he
knew men who were getting city
water and had never paid anything
for it.
The report of the water committee
was adopted all voting in favor Of
same.
