NAN DEAD IN CUTOFF LAKE
Body is Not Yet Identified, but Held
by Coroner.
MAY BE CASE OF FOUL PLAY
FIoster - Found by Railroad Em-
plOyes Near the West End
of the Illinois Central
Bridge.

The body Of a man was found floating
under the surface Of Cutoff lake about 100
feet north of the west end OF the Illinois
Central railroad bridge, Thirteenth and
Henderson streets. Monday morning. Foul
play is thought to have been the prime
cause of death.
The body was first seen by some railroad
men crossing the trestie on their train and
by a man named Harvard. The crew
consisted of r. Dorau, conductor;
l.. d. Griffith. engineer; John Ian
der, fireman. The matter was reported
to Coroner Heafey at 1O:15 o'clock and he
sent his assistant out to take possession OF
the body. 1t had been secured with a rope
from a boat by the men who discovered it.
No boat was found adrift in the lake, so
it is believed the man either fell from
the trestle or was thrown into the water
after being knocked unconscious. There was
a cut on the top of the head.
In the opinion of Coroner Heafey the body
had not been in the water more than
twenty-four hours before being removed.
It is thought not TO be that of a railroad
man or switchman. as men in the north
yards failed TO identify It.
No trouble is anticipated i'm the final iden-
tification, as there are distinctive marks
and peculiarities about the body. Several
front teeth are missing from the upper jaw.
the left ear is small and effectively formed,
while the right is large and apparently per-
feet. There is afdepresslon, indicating per-
haps some former wound or injury, just
below the breast bore, The hair and mus
tache are reddish brown and the latter is
rather long and ragged. The eyes are gray
and the man weighed about $50 pounds and
was five feet eight inches in height. Moth
ing but a linen handkerchief and a leather
tobacco pouch were found in the maNSs
pockets.
Poorly dressed, the body is supposed to be
that of a laborer. 1t was clad in ordinary
gray-mixed coat and trousers, made by
Kuh. Nathan & Fischer and supposedly
bought in Omaha. The shirt was of soft
material and red and gray striped, like a
''hickoTy'' shirt.
Coroner Heafey is holding the body and
expects to have it Identified before night,
when the question as to how the mar came
to his death may also be solved.

Sleepy Hewitt
Still Unterrified
~Chuckling in His Sleeve at the Way
He Blufed Those Game
Wardens.

SLEEPY" Hewitt is still unterrified. He
appeared with his counsel, ]. NJ. Macfar-
land, in county court Monday morning and
arranged for release on bail in the sum
of $500 which was furnished by George
Drossoff.
The only charge against Hewitt lie fish
ing with a seine" for which the horrible
penalty of a s45 fine may be exacted. 1t
was expected that Deputy Game Warden
Boehler would swear out a warrant for
resisting an officer, the same being the
effective shotgun play which Sleepy
Hewitt made by the bank of Cutoff lake
the other night. But Boehler has not APP
peared and Hewitt is still chuckling up
his sleeve and down his necktie.
Howe and Winship have also been re-
leased on bail, but Nels Anderson, who
gave his name as John Doe is still in
custody. After holding up Boehler and
Frank Brown, Hewitt says he went to the
grand old state of Iowa where he was the
guest of friends until this morning. That
he was reposing in a hollow log thus
seems to have been a base libel. Hewitt
still has the shotgun.

NEW MONDELL ACT ATTRACTS
GREAT ATTENTION TO LAND
Homeseekers Flood Railroad O6ices
with Inquiries About
the Law,

Great interest in the new Mondell act Is
being shown by prospective settlers from
the middle west and both the Burlington
railroad offices and the Northwestern are
being flooded with inquiries concerning the
land which is now subject to homestead
entries.
This act doubles the size of homestead
a settler may take. giving a chance at $40
acres of good land, with a total. of 100000
acres subject to entry.
The secretary of the interior has set aside
large tracts which haveobeen examined and
found to possess no mineral value.
The homeseekers' formati bureau of
the Burlington has prepared maps showing
the exact location of the land, considerable
of which is in Crook and Weston counties,
near Newcastle and Moorecroft.
Crops from this land shown at the Ma
tional Corn exposition at Omaha were AZ
most the equal of crops from the irrigated
sections. The rainfall is about 2l inches.
