FOUND A SKELETON.
Remains of Man Found in Slough With
Bullet Holes in His SkkIl-Had
Lain There for Years.

Grand Forks, N. D., Aug. 1.-THE
skeleton of man was found in a
coulee seven miles northwest of here
by S. J. Wilkins. The bones indicate
the man may have been dead two or
three years. The man when alive is
thought to have been about five feet,
five inches high, and to have weighed
about 140 pounds. There were two
bullet holes in the skull, one near
each eye, and the bullets were inside
the skull. Underneath the body were
remnants Of a fine overcoat, piece
of silk muffier, a revolver with two
empty shells, a razor and two pocket
knives. Near the revolver were
pieces of an alligator grip. The
pieces of clothing and shoes indicate
that the man was well dressed and
not a hobo. Z
The hay in this cou1ee had not been
cut for few years, and there is moth
ing to determine accurately how long
the body had been in that place.
From the fact that there were two
empty shells in the revolver and two
holes In the skull 1t might be a case
of suicide, but the further fact that
the holes were from opposite sides
of the head seem to point to murder.
Two years ago last spring a man
named Thompson disappeared from
Eemerado and the remains may be
his. The officials are Investigating

MlNOT LEAGUE
IS VERY ACTIVE
CIVIC LEAGUE HAS HIRED SPOT
TIERS TO KEEP TAB ON BOOZE
SOLD IN DRUG STORES.

Minot, N. D., Aug. ia fund of
$500 has been raised by the Civic
league of this city for the purpose of
employing professional spoilers
against the drug stores in Minot The
league claims that the druggists are
violating the laws in the amount of
liquor that they sell to customers and
that they are not making them sign
the little book. The Civic league
when organized last April started put
ting up various candidates for city
offices, most of whom were defeated.
In the county fight they took no part.
Following the election of Mayor Clark
who was not their candidate, the Civic
league has been making a study of
municipal affairs. Several warrants
were sworn out for alleged blind
piggers against whom their spoilers
are slated to appear as complaining
witnesses. They have been somewhat
chagrined, however, at the lack of op-
portunity they have had Of exercising
their powers. Since Mayor Clark has
gone in every gambling house in the
city has been closed up, the social evil
has been completely segregated and
the blind pigs have been largely done
away with. The city officials. how
ever, have nothing to do with the en-
forcement Of the laws regarding the
drug stores, SO that the new channel
into which the league has turned its
efforts does not eeect the city officials.
No announcement has been made as
yet to the part the Civicgleague will
play in the coming fan election, but
1t is thought that no amicabIe agree
ment can be reached among the mem
bers.

Hazelton, N. D., Aug. 11.-Special-
The baseball tournament held here
last Friday, Saturday and Sunday was
a success in every respect, though
some of the teams expected were not
able to be present. Napoleon, Linton
and Hazelton teams contested, six
games being played. Hazelton won
first money, Linton second and Ma
poleon third. All the games were
holly contested, and as each team had
been strengthened for the occasion,
close scores resulted in most of them.
Friday Afternoon.
The first game was Friday after
noon, and was won by Hazelton by
the following score:

Dick Painter of Napoleon, ex-
league umpire, officiated at most of
the games, and gave good satisfac-
ton. Considerable money changed
hands on the result of the last game,
as there is much good natured rivalry
between the two towns in regard to
their respective ball teams. These
games gave Hazelton the undisputed
championship of this part of the state,
as at the Linton tournament week
ago they defeated Linton, Ft. Yates
and Pollock, winning every game they
played, and repeated the trick on
their home grounds in this one This
practically ends the baseball season in
Emmons and Logan counties.

ate of Church in Rawayton.

Rowayton, March 26.-It has be-
come known that the reason for the
resignation of Rev Frank c. Brown
from the pastorate of the First Bap-
fist church here was due to letters
of an unbecoming nature written by
him to Clara Raymond, eldest daugh-
ter of Charles Raymond, formerly a
representative in the legislature.
These letters were read by the young
woman's father to the trustees of the
church and the pastors resignation
followed. In one of the letters he in
vited Miss Raymond to visit him at
his winter home in the south and
enclosed ten dollar bill to defray
her travelling expenses. The con-
tents of the other letters are not
made public.

invalid wife and a daughter % years
old. Miss Raymond has given up her
membership in the church, in the

it was found that a cellar way was
broken into and later in the day an
other intrusion took plrce. One bat
and four dozen baseballs were taken
and yesterday the detectives rounded
up the above named boys. Each Of
them was only too willing to tell the
part the others took in the matter, but
they all said that it was little Johnnie
ZappOne who actually went into the
storehouse. The Tato boys live on
North Willow street while the others
live on French and Gilbert street.
The Lawrence boy was fined 81 and
costs with the alternative of going to
the state school for boys in Meriden
and John Zappone was fined S. and
costs with the same alternative. SEN

MORE BIDS CALLED FOR
Another Effort 10 Give Employ
ment TO Waterbury Laborers.

The street committee of the de.
partment of public works, consisting
OF Commissioners Scully and Walker
10 whom was referred for considera-
tlon and report, the question wheth-
er or not it was for the best interests
OF the city to award the contract to
New Haven firm or have it done by
the day, only local labor being en-
ployed, got together yesterday and
decided that owing to the large num-
Der OF unemployed men in Waterbury
at the present time it would not he
lalr TO home labor to bring in men
from out Of town, and agreed to re-
port pack to the board that all bids
be rejected and the work re-adver-
USED, proposals to be confined to
residents of Waterbury, the success
1ul bidder to pay not less than fifteen
cents an hour for labor. Already the
bid Of d. T. Altman, which is lower
than the one submitted by the New
Haven firm, is in the hands of the
clerk and it is not likely that this
VIII be the only one, so that nobody
need be alarmed about the city losing
anything. Bids will be received next
Tuesday night. Owing to the neces-
slty of opening up work as soon as
possible on this job, it was decided
10 call special meeting of the board
and at 4 O'Clock yesterday afternoon
the mayor and all the commissioners
met and unanimously approved the
report of the street commissioners
and instructed the engineer to issue
the call for bids not later than to-
day. !

watched Alio very closely. Allo sat
most of the time with downcast eyes,
but occasionally he would look at the
jury or at witness, and with blinking
eyes he would seem 10 be trying to

The district attorney in his statement
said that in Sicily, where Alio was

Their Leo there was a deep silence in
the courtroom. He spoke in simple
words, with no effect at eloduence. hut
his description of the murder made Il
deep impression upon the jury.
Because of eXcommuncation from
the Catholic church Alo could get no
work nor any place to live IN Italy. He
therefore left for South America. While
there he was told by countryman of
his wife being untrue to him with a
priest. He told these stories without
any show Of feeling The only time
Allo showed any excitement was when
he told of the killing.

HARD FIGHT TO SAVE BLOCK
Frost Building at Bellows Falls Cutie d
bv Fire.

Bellows Falls, March 9.-The oldest
building in Bellows Falls, known as
the Frost block, was badly Quilted by
fire this afternoon, causing loss OF
about $4,000.
The fire, when discovered had a big
start and for a time a disasterous con-
flagration was feared as adjoining the
block was the Central Hotel and in the
rear, within a few feet the livery
stable of H. w. Trowbridge, all of
wood. A hard wind was blowing end
the firemen had one of the hardest OF
fights. The building burned fiercely
and the top Of the block was burned
off. although the flames were kept
from the two lower stores.
The occupants included: A. NJ. Rich
ards. who ran a meat market, Henry
King, marble dealer, G.. l.. Fletcher,
tailor, and several families. The
block is owned by III. s. Frost, who
also owns the Central House. The ex'
act age of the building is uncertain
but in 1898, when it was purchased by
Quartus Morgan, grandfather of the
present Quartus e. Morgan, it was
then very old building. Its age is
approximately $50 years and 1t has re-
NAMED practically as ii was at the
time Mr. Morgan bought II. For years
1t was the local tavern and was fam
Gus as a hosterlery and roadhouse. 1t
had not been used for a hotel since
about 1920.
