The crime for which Basanella was
to serve life sentence of imprison-
ment was for the murder of a lumber
jack in a box car near Grand Forks
about seven years ago. His brother
John was also implicated in the crime.
Soon after the trial the men escaped
from the Grand Forks Jail. Joe was
later apprehended in Montana. John
drifted to Mclean county, where he
lived under an assumed name. He
murdered a man there, was convicted
of the crime and hanged at Wash.

Woollen was doing six years time
for assault with intent to kill The
crime OF which he was convicted took
place in Jamestown. At the trial he
was found guilty and sentenced to
five years Imprisonment. While he
was awaiting transportation to the
penetentiary he escaped from the
Jamestown jail He was captured lat
er, however, and his sentence was
extended one more year.
Particulars learned later go to show
that the men probably doubled on
their tracks from the farm house

for the river, where there is the pro
lection of dense underbrush and tim

road, whose trains run quite slow in
approaching the Missouri river bridge
making it possible for men to gel
aboard, and where many of the es
capped convicts have made their get

Last evening a citizen of this city
came from the woods and reported
seeing man in blue clothes on thi
edge of the timber and he seemed t,

ey am indirectly receiving from the
government, would be luke warm
on the proposition of a government
building or any other Improvement
for Bismarck. Our city has out
grown the period of doubt and all
that is now necessary is to pull to-
gether for everything that will up
build the city. I trust that politics
may not interfere with united bust
ness front on the part of our people.
1 don't know anything about the city
hall proposition that seems to have
caused some friction-don't know
what shape the city is in to bond,
but certainly we should have good
city hall sometime. don 'tssee what
harm would come from the granting
to the people the opportunity to vote
on the bonding proposition. It is a
pretty safe proposition to leave mat
tiers of this kind to the people. If,
after full discussion of the PROPOSE
ton, it did not look good to the tax
payers, they would vote it down.
When bonding proposition carries
the cause must have merit or nine
times out of ten the measure fails.
I know our delegation in Washing

for Bismarck but the watch dogs of
the treasury may head Off many
meritorious propositions of this ma
ture this campaign year, but our peo-
pie should keep busy and they will
win in the long run.

All the way through the men seem
to have been protected by phenomen-
al luck from detection, as no one, save
the man who caught a glimpse of
Bassanella through the timber, has
caught sight of them.
When they first made their escape,
however, they were plainly sighted
about two miles from the penitentiary

In the fall of 1901 Axel Anderson OF
Cummings, N. D., and another man
were returning to their homes in a
box car with their teams from the
lumber woods OF Minnesota. At the
tarnsfer just west of Grand Forks
Joe and John Bassanella entered the
car and demanded money of them.
Anderson resisted, was shot and kill
ed, the other man keeping very still
for fear of like fate. The Bassan-
ella brothers left the train, but were
soon after captured and jailed at
Grand Forks. From there they made
their escape, Joe getting to Montana,
where he was captured some months
later. John wandered into Mclean

COLD WAVE UPON Us
Temperature of 70 Degrees 10 Mar
tinshurg Tuesday Followed by
Sudden Change.

The weather OF Tuesday much ike
balrny spring day, made q ~ery de-
cided change last night making good
the warnings of the weather bureau
of the coming of cold wave Waking
up this morning it was at once felt
that the genial warmth Of the good old
summer time had changed TO the
frigid winds OF winter From the
thermometers registering 20 degrees
yesterday, there was a drop to s6
degrees this morning.
1t Was a keen cutting air that met
those who We're out early this morn
ing. The usual groups Of men and
boys seen on the streets during Tues
day, kept themselves close housed.
The fires were stirred vigorously, and
those that had been left TO 90 out,
were hastily rekindled. The cold stay
ed the farmers from making their
usual trip to town and the streets
were comparatively quiet during the
day. Even the shoppers We're slow to
make their daily rounds spying out
the nice things for Christmas.
That the thermometer should reg
lister anything like 70 degrees on the
first day or December is a most un-
usual thing. Winter flannels and over
coats We're decidedly uncomfortable.
Not so today. Overcoats are In de
mand. and no sweat drops fall from
the over-heated brow, The porkers
slaughtered yesterday are safe for fu-
that the genial wamth of the good old
of yesterday have subsidized Even the
coal men are rejoiced.
