IowAN BURNED in A CELL.
Tragic End Comes to William Dyteh
in North Dakota.

Mason City, Oct. 31.-William q.
Dytch, an old resident of this county.
but who for the past four years has
been a resident of Burtram, N. D..
came to'a tragic end in the county Jail
at Dunnybrook, N. D., Tuesday night,
which resulted in his death in a fire
that consumed the building. The story
which has come to relatives here is one
of strange mystery and one which none
of them are able to understand.
Mr.. Dytch left his home at Burtram
on Oct. Is, enroute to visit his mother
and sister living at Crookston, MINI.
While on the way he received word
that a position as section foreman
awaited him at Butte, Mont, on the
Milwaukee road, and CHANGED to stop
at Dunnybrook over night. The word
received here is to the effect that his
peculiar actions indicated mental UNI
balance to the authorities, and he was
placed in Jail over night for safe keep
ing. He was allowed his pipe and to-
bacco, and it is thought in using
matches to light his pipe he set his
bunk afire and as a consequence the
building. Before anyone reached him
he had suffocated.

Bile in the intestinesis as important to diges

bile is only supplied when the liver is in active

The serious and chronic forms of indigestion

the liver causing good flow of bile to aid

BEATEN BY THE

Frank Klaus. besotted with drink
and bleeding from deep gashes in
his head, was found in the O. r. &
N. railroad ya,ds about o'clock
this morning by Patrolman Casey.
Klaus wounds appeared to have
been made with blunt instru-
ment of some sort. He was con-
scious, but from loss of blood and
the drink he had taken, was I'M
able to walk
The patrol brought him to police
headquarters, where he told a
somewhat incoherent story about
two Italian "black hand" men who
forced him to accompany them to
the railroad yards and there
pounced upon him and beat him
insensible. He said at first that he
thought they also robbed him of
$65. but this was iisproven when
the officers who searched him
found that amount Of money In the
denominations he named in his
pockets.
Patrolman Casey also reported
that the nightwatchman at the rail
road yards took two shots at a
couple of men he saw running be-
tween the cars.

The plan has been carefully

private interests. of the company
and public interests of the city.

The city engineer makes one
suggestion, however that implies a

opinion ON grade separation cover
ing every phase of the pending n.
p. discussion. His plans contem-
plate Encouragement Of railway
facilities in this city and appeared
so near the proper solution, II pos
sible of accomplishment, that the
council will take it up by commit
tee with the railroads concerned.
In brief his plan is that the g..
n and N. p. tracks be connected
south of Greene and Walton SITS.
and new freight and warehouse
district be created in that territory
from the junction to Sprague av.
and Ivory st. This scheme contem-
plates a common user of the track

connecting at the Crestline and

entrance from their respective loca-

also provided for, either at the
east tllu vi tHC cpia d'. tiSSeiS
or at the site of the present n. p,

slight deviation in streetcar routes
at this point would be necessary.
This plan, the engineer argues,
would permit the three Hill lines a
common track outlet west, to be Sc
cured by a 100 foot tunnel
through Cannon hill, beginning
near the East Sprague trestle and
terminating at the Hangman creek
bank in Stafford's addition, the

KOREANS PLOT
ASSASSINATION

SAN FRANCISCO, March "a
Fearing that yesterdays assault
upon D. w. Stevens, Japanese
Korean diplomat, is but one of a
series of assassinations planned by
the local colony of Koreans against
Japanese and their sympathizers,
Japanese here are taking every pre-
caution. Last night the home of
the Japanese consul was guarded
by special policemen, and the
homes of the majority Of. wealthy
and prominent Japanese were also
guarded.
In Korean quarters the shooting
of Stevens is taken as the signal
for a wave of patriotic enthusiasm
and many did not hesitate to give
unqualified approval of the crime.
Further arrests are possible.
1t is known that the Japanese
consul has gathered mass of data
in regard to revolutionary plots Of
Koreans. Japanese Consul Koike
has sent long dispatch to Ambas-
sador Takahira in Washington.
Stevens is reported doing as we'll
as could be expected and has
chance for life. The wounded
Korean is not expected to live.

to subways, If the railroad plans
are followed, the engineer advises
deck construction to avoid the
closing of any street except Oak,
where the old line would descend
from the new. He holds that Ber-
nard cannot be opened without es-
tablishing an impractical grade. 1t
is contended that a rs foot street
can be opened at Maple Not less
than 10 foot clearance is advised,
with Division and Maple not less
than 15h. The company plans for
