Daniel Maloney, who has been on
trial all week charged with the MUIR
der Of Nick Nachtscheim, was found
guilty by the jury at Devils Lake and
a life sentence recommended. Nick
Nachtscheim, an old man who had
been running blindpig, was found
dead, with his head, severed from his
body, in a cellar under his house on
the third Of last August The condi-
tion Of the body indicated the crime
had been committed ten days or more
prior to his discovery. About four
months later, while drinking heavily.
Daniel Maloney, a hard character ot-
tempted to commit suicide by cutting
his wrists with razor He bled pro-
fusely and believing he was about to
die is said to have made this admis-
sion: II am done for now. My God!

able to look man in the face since" ="
Upon this statement he was arrested.
Witnesses testified as to threats he
made against Nachtschiem prior to ne
murder. The evidence was entirely
efrcumstantial, but strong HIN was
presented. Maloney's defense was
that he had tremens when he cut him.

he did. The verdict meets with popu

.GALvEsTON's SEA WALL.

1t VIII Be Three Miles Long and
Seventeen Feet High.
Galveston is to have sea wall
three miles in length and costing near
IL $2OOO,OOO, which calls for the most
pretentious piece of engineering of the
sort ever attempted in the United
States,' said T.. C. Machem of the Lone
Star State to Washington Star man
at the Ebbitt hotel the other morning.
Ever since the great calamity of sew
eral years ago it has been realized that
something must be done to prevent a
repetition of the horrible disaster, and
q sea wall was nit upon as the best So
luton of the problem. This wall is to
be built of concrete and stone to a
height of seventeen feet above low
water, and when it is completed or.
in fact. while it is being done. it is
proposed to fill in the entire city until
it Is on level with the top of the
wall. K
'sThe money for building the wall has
been provided, and the engineers have
reported favorably on the plan. The
only thing yet remaining is provision
for the money necessary to fill in the
city. and it Is quite certain that this
will be done by a change in the city
charter. which will admit of all the
taxes heretofore paid to the state being
diverted into fund for the purpose
Of filing"

slot Machine to Facilitate Mailincr
of Special Delivery Letters.
The postal authorities have author
lied experiments to be made in Wash
ington with All automatic letter box
designed especially for handling spe-
cial delivery letters. writes the corre-
spondent Of the Philadelphia Public
Ledger. The box is the invention Of a
Chicago man and trials that have been
made warrant the belief that 1t will &C.
con1plish all that is claimed for it. It
is proposed to place six Of the boxes on
trial in Washington at prominent ho-
teas and points where large numbers
Of people daily pass. t s..
The box is q slot machine arrange
ment and IS quite ingenious IN It's con-
struction and operation. The letter In,
tended for special delivery Is first
stamped with a stamp representing the
regular postage. A dime Is then drop
ped into the slot of the box. and imme-

back which causes the letter to be
stamped with the number OF the box
and with consecutive number. Coi-
lections are to be made at short inter
walls by special messengers. The de-
pository for the coins is SO arranged
that the messenger or collector cannot
touch the money. He takes out the
metal box into which the money has
fallen and replaces it with another.
The clerk at the postoffice who re-
ceives the special delivery letter keeps
the key of the box. To prevent the
use of spurious coins the repository is
so arranged that each coin when drop
ped rests in the order in which it was
dropped. At the same time each letter
Is stamped with number. Thus. If
the third coin should be spurious. it
would be known that it was dropped
in with the third letter. which would
not only prevent the carriage of the
letter. but would furnish a clew to the
sender as well. 49,. ~
