SCHOOL, BOARD IN.
SESSION LAST
EVENING
Decide Not to Purchase More
Fuel at Preseat-other
Matters.

The last meeting of the old school
board was held in the Central school
building last night with all the men,
bers present except ]. A. Sorley The
meeting was called to order by D. Nc
Donald, president pro tempore, but
before the reading of the minutes was
completed he vacated in favor of Presi-
dent Bacon, who was absent when the
meeting opened, but later appeared.
The fuel committee, to which had
been referred the question of investi-
eating the advisability of purchasing
next years supply of wood because of
the danger of coal strike and the
consequent increase in price, reported
that there was now on hand about 400
cords of wood available for next year,
and as this would last until late in the
winter it was not advisable to make
further purchase. The report was ac-
cepted and filed.
The committee on building and
grounds reported that the sidewalk in
front of the Belmont school building
should be changed and also that the
boiler of that building should be re-
paired. The report was adopted.
A communication was read from the
Sheet Metal Works in reference to a
bill which has been pending for some
time. 1t seems the bill was for work
done on the Belmont school building,
and the contractors claim that it was
their bill and that they were RESPONSE
BILE for it and not the board. 1t was
decided that the secretary should so
notify the Sheet Metal Works.
The bond of the city threasurer as
eA-of1lcfo treasurer of the school dis
trict was read and upon motion was
referred to ]. A. Sorley as a special
committee to report on the correctness
Of the form.
A communication was received from
Attorney George A. Bangs relevant to
the case of the board against Archi-
tect DeRemer for alleged defects in the
plans of the Belmont school building,
IN reference to an appeal in the same.
The matter was referred to the COM
mittee on buildings and grounds to in
vestigate and report at the next meet
ing.
A communication was also received
from Mr.. Bangs in reference to the
penalty and interest on delinquent
taxes collected by the county on the
district assessment and retained by the
county. There is due the district from
this source $6,232.2S. The whole ques-
ton is one of the construction of the
law, and determination by the courts
as to where the money should be ap-
piled when collected. The question
which the board. is considering is
whether or not it is advisable to in
stitute a suit to recover the amount or
not. The entire matter was referred
to the committee on ways and means
with power to act.
A number of designations of teach
ers were presented and without being
read they were referred to the commit
tee on teachers and schools to investi-
gate and report at the next meeting.
The usual current bills were al
lowed.

1t is worth, but are business men who
deal in oil the same as merchants
deal in groceries.
They sell It for what it is worth
with fair profit added. But they do
not permit the Standard to fix their
prices or to control their supply. 1t
will be decided advantage. to the
consumers of oil in this city and
throughout the northern part of the

A BODY FOUND
in RIVER
Remains Of Drowned Man Believed to
be William NOlander Found In Red
Lake RIVER Near CroOkstOn Last
EvpntnD

Special to The Evening Times.
Crookston, Mimi, May 2.-Nels Han
sen, a prominent farmer residing three
miles west of the city on the Red
Lake river. last evening found the re-
mains of man in the river near his
home. The body was lodged in the
limbs of tree, near the center of the
stream. Chief of Police Eek was at
once notified and he and deputy went
to the scene, together with the coroner.
There is little doubt that it is the
remains of William Molander, who was
claimed by the waters of the Red
Lake river ten days ago. There was
no means Of Identification as the body
was in the river, and he was not
known there. Being the only body
that is known to be in the river at
the present time and being about time
that 1t would start to float as a result
of the formation of gases, there is no
doubt that it is the unfortunate
Crookstonite.
The body was recovered and
brought to the city. The Identification
was made complete today by the find
ing of jack-knife In the victims
pocket. The knife bore his name.
The deceased was drowned on April
20 by the capsizing of a boat. A COM
panion who was with him escaped.
The remains will probably be taken to
NOsstOn for interment.

Strassberg arrived in Emerald two
weeks ago and when it was announced
Tuesday afternoon that he was suffer-

be no further spread of the disease.
though great many people were sub
jected to contagion.
Smallpox has been practically
stamped out in North Dakota, but now
and then an occasional case hobs up
for the care of the health authorities.
Eternal vigilance has been their
watchword ever since the epidemic
which struck Minnesota along in 1900
and which later spread alarmingly TO
the confines of this state Strassberg's

ALTMAN CASE
GOES UP
Mayor Duis and John Dinnie Sign g..
600 Bond on Appeal-Action Now
Goes to United States Circuit Court
Of Appeals at st, LOuis. Mo.

The case of D. Altman versus the
City Of Grand Forks, an action brought
to recover $4,000 for personal injuries
alleged to have been sustained through
the negligence of the city in permitting
a loose plank in a walk near the west
end of the DeMers avenue bridge,
which plank was the ultimate result,
it was claimed, of the plaintiff being
seriously injured, has been taken up
to the United States circuit court of
appeals at st. Louis, Mo. The bond on
appeal was made out today and signed
by Mayor George E. Duis and John
Dinnie. 1t is for $4,000.
This action was originally tried in
the federal court and a verdict of $3.50
found for plaintiff 1t is from this YER
dict that the city takes an appeal. The
appeal was perfected and sent up by
George A. Bangs, who has handled the
litigation for the city ever since it's
institution
In this connection 1t might be inter
esting to note that today is the first
time in ten years that Mr.. Bangs
shoulders have not carried the burden
of official cares. A little less than ten
years ago, following the resignation
of G. J. Fisk from that Office, George
A. Bangs was appointed city attorney
by Mayor John Dinnie. During the
intervening space Mr.. Bangs has, ac-
cording to statement made today,
handled an aggregate of $4,000 in
personal injury suits in which the
city was defendant OF this total,
judgments of only $3.50 have been
secured, and $3.50 of the latter
amount is still pending on appeal.
Thus it will be seen that the final
judgments which the city has had to
pay have amounted to only $500 in a
total of $4,000 claimed During the
ten years Mr.. Bangs he'll doffice as city
attorney he worked on salary of 5000
per annum and expenses. His sue
cessor, Scott Rex, who has just been
appointed by Mayor Duis, would not
accept the position at salary of less
than 1000, notwithstanding that all
litigation pending against the city has
been practically wound up. There is
no question in the mind of the local
members of the legal profession that
$1,000 is none too large an amount
for that officer

The Depot Location.

The location of the new freight depot
of the Northern Pacific will probably
be located at a different point than at
first suggested. 1t will be location
in line with the company's ice houses,
and a block from both the street and
the avenue. This will give a 130-foot
driveway to the building. The change
Of location is made so that some oftthe
tracks on Fourth street can be re-
moved. There are now seven tracks
crossing the street, and with the new
arrangement two and probably four Of
them can be dispensed with.
