CITY IMPROVEMENTS.

Ever since the announcement of the
building Of the sugar factory was
made last February. the growth of our
town and its business has been steady
and quite satisfactory TO everybody.
This growth is tle inevitable result
Of the establishing Of an enterprise
in our midst that would carry q pay
roll OF thousands of dollars monthly
and makes a market for the most
profitable crop the farmer can raise.
But as the town expands there
are many improvements to b. male
and which are absolutely necessary II
we would continue to go forward.
Anon, the improvements which are
considered By many to be necessary
for Holly at this time are system OF
water works, electric lighting and new
sidewalks. But do not imagine that
mr. honorable Board OF Trustees has
been at all dilatcry in recognizing the
necessity for these things. The water
works and lighting questions have
been deliberated upon by the board at
numerous meetings during the past
few months, the systems In use in
other towns have been investigated,
and man. persons who have had ex-
oerience in the business have been
consulted. AS yet, however. no def
mite conclusion has been reached as to
the most feasible plan.
While we should have a system Of
water works Just as soon as we can
possibly get it, we are glad to note
the fact that the Board of Trustees and
the mayor manifest disposition to go
slowly in the matter. giving every
phase OF the question the deliberation
that its Importance requires, and to
act in body for the best interests OF
the town. When Holly gets water
works. which will no doubt be in the
very near future. the citizens may rest
assured that 1t will be the best that
can he had and one that will give the
best service at minimum expense.
In the matter Of electric lighting the
board is considering several proposi-
lions for systems adapted to a town
Of Holly's size ana on this as on the
water works question. they are taking
plenty OF time. as they should do, hav-
ing within easy reach at all times the
big stick" with which to greet the
CRATER. who invariably bobs up at
such times as these.
The sidewalk proposition was taken
Up at the meeting Of the board Mon
lay night and discussed at length. 1t
was unanimously agreed that cement
walks should be laid for two blocks
IN each side of Fourth street and a
committee was appointed to interview
he property owners interested and as
certain their sentiment on the matter
This is an improvement that will do
more to attract the attention and ad-
tniration of the stranger for our town
han anything else that could be done
and no citizen who wants to see new
comers locate here should oppose it.

GIRL STANDS BY HIM
UnfroCked Pastor Who EIoped
Is on Trial

NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., March
13.-The trial Of ]. F. Cordova, the un-
frocked minister and formerly pastor
OF the Conklin Methodist Episcopal
church Of South River, who is charged
by his wife with assault and battery
and abandonment as result of two
sensational elopements with the
daughter of the village blacksmith,
began here today. Miss Julia Bovine,
the young woman with whom Cordova
twice. fed, has persistently declined to
forsake him and was brought into
court today. She has been kept in
Jail as a witness awaiting the trial.
steadfastly refusing to accept bail Of
fered for her release. The first elope-
ment of the pair occurred last May,
but they returned to South River soon
afterwards. A few weeks ago they
again eloped, going to Washington,
where they were apprehended and
brought here. Cordova has repeatedly
declared his willingness to accept
punishment if Miss Bovine Is un-
harmed.
Mrs. Cordova, wife of the former
pastor, was the first witness against
her husband. She testified about her
husbands elopement. but was not per-
mitted to give the name of the young
woman with whom he went away, the
court ruling Miss Bowne's name out
upon the objection of counsel for Cor
dova. Mrs. Cordova said that when
her husband left her he declared that
she would never see him again: that
he gave her some money and subse-
quently sent here more. She identified
letters written by her husband asking
her to secure a divorce from him.
Cipher letters, alleged to have been
sent to Miss Bovine by Cordova, were
identified as having been written by
her husband. Cordova, she said, was
paid 500 per year.
Miss Bownes father was prevented
from testifying by objections from
counsel for. the defense, which were
sustained by the court. When Miss
Bovine was called she evaded all ques-
tions that would implicate Cordova
until the prosecutor, in desperation,
asked her: r<
Have you banished from your mind
all memory of this man, as you have
banished what we want TO know pa
The answer was a defiant and en-
phatic negative.
Cordova testified that he left home
on May IL because he could not longer
live with his wife. He declined to an
swer questions as to who accompanied
him to Mexico and other places. The
prosecutor asked the court to compel
an answer, and Judge. Strong said he
would consider the matter. and ad-
journed court until tomorrow.

SHOOT UP PIG AND DOG
IN A MURDER TRIAL
Youths Lawyers Contend That He
Fired in Self Defense

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, March 1S. =
The ,arcasses of pig. and dog were
exhibited to the jury today in the trial
of Paul H. Schmidt, the youth accused
of the murder Of William Taylor,
farm hand. The animals had been
subjected to tests by medical men en-
ployed by the defense as experts on
gunshot wounds. Dressed in mems
clothing, SO that the effect on both the
fabric and living tissue could be noted,
the animals were made the targets Of
shotguns fired at different distances.
Witnesses for the state have asserted
that. judging from the character of the
wounds on Taylor's body, he must have
been at least ten feet away from
Schmidt when the fatal shot was fired.
AS a result of the animal experiments,
the experts for the defense testified to-
day that the men could not have been
more than four or six feet apart at the
time Of the shooting. Their testimony
is in support of the contentious of the
defense that Schmidt shot Taylor in
self-defense Immediately after a strug-
gle for the possession of the gun

ONLY MUSIC CALMS
Young Woman Made HystericaI

EAST ST. LOUIS, ILL.,, March 49,
Thrown into violent hysteria by a foot
pad, who robbed her of SIG on the
street on Saturday evening, Mamie
Powers, aged IS, lies in her bed unable
to recognize anyone around her and
is quieted only when songs are sung to
her. The physician thinks the sooth-
ing influence Of the music will eventu-
ally restore her to reason.
Miss Powers reached her home aft
er her encounter with the robber and
fell fainting. When revived she raved
and since has had but one lucid mo-
ment. That was Sunday evening, when
she suddenly cried:
Send for Will McGraw, want him
TO sing
The young man was summoned, and,
accompanying himself on mandolin,
began singing. Instantly Miss Powers
became calm. The moment the music
ceased she grew hysterical. McGraw
sang himself out and was relieved by
another musical visitor, and the music
was continued until midnight, when
the patient fell into a deep sleep. To-
day, when she was again hysterical,
the singers Gained her,

EXPENSIVE FIRE
Glass Block Property Goes,
With Losses Approaching

Special to The Globe
MANKATO, Mimi, March 13.-One
OF the costliest fires in the history of
the city occurred this evening, when
the j. b. & d. Richards glass block
property was completely wiped out,
with all its contents. The fire was dis
covered in the rear at about 9 o'clock,
and spread with wonderful speed, so
that flames were bursting out from
three sides before the fire department
arrived. The building was erected and
originally used for department store,
but when ]. b. & d. Richards purchas-
ed It they used the first floor as an
exclusive dry goods store and rented the
second floor for offices. The origin of
the fire is unknown.
]. B. & d. Richards lost on building
$4,000 and on stock $4,000. They
carried $4,000 insurance on building
and $4,000 on stock. The Northwest
ern Telephone exchange had recently
installed a central plant in the rear of
the second floor at an expense of IS, 900.
It carried $4,000 insurance. Other losses

MRS.CODYCAVEDRUG
So Declares the Sister of Buf.
fdlO Bill

DENVER, Colo, March 13.-The al
legation that Mrs. Cody threatened to
give her husband, Col. William f.
Cody, drug to bring him under her
control has been repeated in a deposit
tion made in this city by Mrs. Helen
Cody Wetmore, a sister of the colonel,
to be fled in his divorce suit in the
Wyoming court.
Mrs. Cody told me-" said Mrs. Wet
more. that she had obtained drug of
some character from a clairvoyant and
that she intended to give il to Col.
Cody in order to get control over him:
that she thought herself a better man
ager for the property than the colonel.
and that she wished to get control of
all the property at all hazards"
This is the statement upon which
Col. Cody bases his charge that Mrs.
Cody attempted to poison him. The
trial is practically finished, with the
exception of taking one or two deposit
tions in Nebraska, before the matter Is
laid before the court at Sheridan on
March 20.
