Monday night
A hitch prevented the execution of the
plan to consider several other contracts
for city work during the year. Changes
were necessary to bring the contracts in
conformity with new legislation and II
was found that the contracts, as present
ed last night, were scarcely safe. Amend
ments had been inserted in some of them
after they had been signed by the con-
tractors and their sureties, thus making
wide possibilities in the way of iitiga-
ton. The committee rose to meet after
the city attorney had passed on the con-
tracts and the board of works had Sc
cured the consent of the contractors and
sureties to the changes or had new con-
tracts signed.

SWEETHEART Is uNpolNe.

Man Accused Of Forgery Is Captured
Through Fondness for Young Woman.
Love for his Grand Forks sweetheart
lured E. J. F. Peterson back to Hoople,
N. D., where he was captured by Depu.
ty Sheriff Johnson. Peterson is charg-
ed with floating several bad checks in
Grand Forks, and the warrant for his
arrest was sworn. out by George Mum
70, who cashed check for $50 in pay
ment for a lady's diamond ring. For
the past two months Chief Lowe has
been on the trail of Peterson, who left
Grand Forks, stating that he was go
ing to Spokane to take place in a
bank. He had been employed by Nash
Bros, wholesale grocers.
Chief Lowe notified the officers OF
Spokane to arrest Peterson on his ar
rival there, but he had evidently been
posted and avoided Spokane, although
he was near there. It was found that
he had visited Missoula, Whitefsh,
Glen Ullen and other towns on the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
lines, but he always managed to elude
the officers. He kept up correspond
ence with his sweetheart, but mailed
his letters on the train, and she also
mailed hers on the trains, so that there
would be no chance for his hiding
place to become known. Recently May
Hughes, the girl in the case, went to
visit relatives near Hoople, and 1t was
surmised that Peterson would seek to
join her there. It was learned by
Chief Lowe that Peterson had appear
ed in Grafton and from there has gone
to Hopple. The chief accordingly sent
Deputy johnson to Hoppe to make the
arrest. Deputy Johnson found Peter
son at the farm of brother of Miss
Hughes, and there was gloom, where
happiness had followed the reuniting
of fond sweethearts. Peterson was
taken to Grand Forks for preliminary
hearing.
A peculiar feature of the case Is the
fact that the checks were drawn on q
National bank CT Spokane, which has
been out of existence since 1898. Be-
sides the check for $50 passed on Mum
70, the prisoner is charged with having
passed check for 1853 on the Grand
Forks Steam laundry Co., one on Ba-
con & c. Van Alstine, in payment for
livery hire, and several small amounts
on other business firms.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS FOR NEGRO.
He Is Convicted of Murder as Result
Of Row Over Poker Game.


twenty-five years in the state peni-
tertiary were imposed on Fred Ham,
lin, colored by Judge Pollock of Fargo
when the jury in the district court re-
turned verdict of murder in the sec.
ond degree.
Hamln was placed on trial at Sher-
brooke Tuesday morning for the MUIR
der of Carl McRea, which occurred at
Finley, N. D., Oct. %. The case was
given to the jury Saturday afternoon
at 5 o'clock and it is understood that
but very few ballots were taken. The
prosecution was aided to a large ex-
tent by confession made by Hamlin
before he knew that McRea was dead,
In which he stated that he shot TIE
man. A quarrel over a poker game
started the fight which resulted in the
murder.
Hamlin said he shot McRea in SELF
defense. He was defended by Ex-Teu1-
perance Commissioner Murray. At
torney Johnson prosecuted him.

BETTER SHOW FOR ALIENS.
North Dakota Commissioner Will Co.
Operate With Government.

Commissioner Gilbreath of the de-
partment of agriculture and labor will
cooperate with the government depart
ment that is seeking to place alien Ia
borers on farms and in other places
where they may become self-support-
ing.
Mr.. Gi!breath believes that if tenn
rorary employment is obtained for
aliens, either as agricultural laborers
or on railroad extensions and similar
work. they will be able to find new oc-
equations in short time and will be
assimilated by the population of the
state better than if they are unable to
obtain employment at the beginning.
An effort will be made also to inter-
est the railroads in the matter and see
if temporary employment cannot be
provided for men willing to work.

WIFE pEsERTIoN.

Woman Alleges Husband RaiIroaded
Her to Asylum and Took Her Money.
Michael Allen, arrested at Grand
Forks on charge of wife abandon
ment, took a change of venue from
the court of Judge Mclaughlin to
that of Judge R. ]. Purcell. His bond
was fixed at $500, and he was unable
to furnish it. His case is alleged to
be particularly inexcusable one. In
order to get possession Of his wife's
property, he is claimed to have had
her sent to the asylum year ago.
When his wife was in the asylum he
secured possession of property and
sold it for $4,000. Then he squanderec
the money, and when his wife re-
turned recently she was penniless.
She was refused support by her hus-
band. She charges that Allen had
her railroaded to the asylum in order
to get possession of her property, and
promises to make things interesting

ROMANCE ENDS IN DIVORCE.
Groom Disappears on Wedding Day
and Has Not Been Seen Since.

Groom Disappears on Wedding Day
and Has Not Been Seen Since.
Deserted Immediately after a ro-
mantle elopement from st. Thomas to
Grand Forks, Lila GRADER waited from
April to November for Alfred GRADER
to return, and last week her marriage
was annulled by Judge Charles F. TEN
pleton's court at Grand Forks.
Sad is the story of cruel and unex-
planned desertion related by the plain
tilf, who was allowed to resume her
maiden name Of Lila Gardner.
To the court Mrs. GRADER recited
that the defendant persuaded her to
consent to marriage with him by
fraudulently representing that he
loved her and claiming that he had a
!. home prepared for her near Regina,
Canada. He pleaded with her SO that
she finally consented to marry him
and they agreed to meet in Grand
Forks for the wedding. Accompanied
by her sister-in-law, Mrs. GRADER went
to Grand Forks and stopped at the Ho-
tel Dacotah. GRADER had arrived in
Grand Forks the day previous and was
guest at the Hotel Imperial. The
marriage was performed by Rev. F. E.
R. Miller, in the parsonage Of the Bap.
tist church and after the bridal party
had returned to the Hotel Dacotah
GRADER excused himself, saying that he
would return to the Hotel Imperial to
get his grips. From the time he left
the Hotel Dacotah to the present day
he has not been seen by his wife. AT
ter waiting and weeping for two days
in the Hotel Dakotah she returned to
st. Thomas, mystif1ed by the conduct
of her husband.
Mrs. GRADER has one theory in regard
to the case which is probably the cor
+rect one, and that is that GRADER loved
another young woman and was Tilted
by her. To get even with the first girl
he protested love for Miss Gardner,
was married in haste and repented just
as hastily. The plaintiff is beautiful
young woman, accomplished and of
excellent family, and how GRADER could
have been so heartless cannot be I'M
derstood by her wide circle Of friends.
