Road Talk at Evans
(Eyans Specially


Messrs. Young and Goh. represen-
tatives of the Denver Interurban
road. met with the members OF the
Evans Commercial club Friday night.
The evening was given over to rail-
road talk, the chief topic of discus
sion being the granting of right-of-
ways through town. The lnterur-
ban people announced that their road
is financed and they we're not ask
ing financial aid at this meeting. No
definite steps toward granting the
right-of-way were taken as the sur
vey had not been made and the re-
quest was not definite: but the gen.
eral sentiment seemed to be in favor
of granting the railroad any reason
able requests. The attitude of the
business men is very favorable to the
road.

Found Indian Skeletons
(Green City Special J

Hard on the heels of the indian
relic story of Ault comes one from
Green City that is of even greater
interest. An Indian grave was open
ed on the ranch OF s. Sanford this
week and found to contain two skei-
etons. one of an adult of unusual
height and one OF child. There IS
no doubt about the grave being an
Indian one. as quantities OF beads
have been found in the same locality.
The grave was discovered while
digging bitches on the 1000 acre
ranch belonging to MIR. Sanford. The
skeletons were unusually well pre-
served Some bones OF the adult
were hard as stone, but those OF the
papoose seemed soft. although theN
had not crumbled.

EATON FIGHTING
up. FOR CROSSING
TOWN COUNCIL GOES TO COURT
Four Principal Streets to BE Graded
and Graveled
(Eaton Specially

Eaton Speclal)
The war is on at Eaton and the
town board has instructed the town
attorney, James G. Gault, to insti-
tute proceedings against the Union
Pacific Railway company and force
crossing at Fourth street. The
matter of crossing there has been
argued for months: Superintendent
Wick Roy and other officials have
visited the town in person and look
ed over the situation; the townspeo
pie have insisted that Fourth street
is the logical place for thorough
fare and yet nothing has been done.
AT the last meeting of the council
Attorney Gault received his instruc-
tions, and things are going to get
busy right away 1t is believed that
the only reason the Union Pacific
people have for withholding their
consent is that they intend to locate
the new depot at the particular plare
desired by the farmers for a cross
ing.
At the same meeting it was de-
cided to gravel Oak, First, Second
and Third streets. Besides this they
will curb and gutter Oak street and
two blocks of First street. Some
curbng has already been done by
those having homes on Oak street.
The work of graveling commenced
this morning.
All those in the sewer distric.
have been ordered to make connec-
tions with the sewer system.

CLYDE FITCH IS
DEAD IN FRANCE
AMERICAN PLAYWRIGHT FAILS
TO RECOVER FROM AN oPER-
ALTON FOR APPENDI-
GIFTS.

Chalons Sur Marine, Sept. 6.--Clyde
Fitch, the American playwright, died
at $3.50 Saturday evening. He had
been unconscious since 4 In the af-
ternoon. The doctors and his friend,
Eugene Guthier. were present at the
bedside.
Death was due to appendicitis from
an operation. Mr.. Fitch was stricken
with an acute attack while travelling
from Germany and upon his arrival
here underwent an operation at the
hands of DIR. Alquier. The patient rail-
lied somewhat after the operation. and
yesterday showed some signs OF inn
provement. He suffered a relapse last
night, however, and although he was
fully conscious during the early hours
today the improvement in his condi-
ton was not maintained. After
marked delirium he lapsed into UNI
consciousness about o'clock I'm the
afternoon. at which time the attendant
physician gave up hope OF his re-
covery.

HUSBAND IS DEAD
and Wife DYING

New York, Sept. 6.--'T shot him,
He was untrue TO me, He was going
around with other women, SO 1 made
up my mind to end II all"
This is the explanation the police
say Mrs. Clara Gunther gave them
when they rushed into her little flat
in Brooklyn this afternoon and fund
her husband dead and the woman
dying. George Guntner, the husband,
had been shot three times through the
heart. Mrs. Gunther had a bullet
wound in her breast. The revolver
was still in her hands.
Neighbors say that Gunther. who
a chauffeur employed at a public
garage, drove up to his home in an
automobile this afternoon and short
ly afterward they heard sounds OF a
quarrel, struggle and then OF fur
niture being overturned, followed by
a succession of revolver shots.
The dead man was s5 years old and
his wife 80. The woman Is expected
to die.

VS. serlousIY hurt.

Frank Zebley, lad IL years old, was
accidentally struck by an automobile
being driven on Fourth street north
yesterday by Alphonse Erdel The
boy was playing in the street and
made an attempt to cross the road
way in front of the machine, which
was stopped Immediately and the boy
was merely Knocked down, not run
over. DIR. Humphrey, to whom the boy
was taken, says slight Craze on the
nose and cut on the lip was the ex-
tent of the injuries. Mr.. Erdel did all
he could to avoid striking the boy, but
the latter turned first one way and
then the other. Drivers generally
complain that they are much annoyed
by boys, at the location named, con-
tinually playing in the streets and
trying to catch onte moving vehicles
for ride and If they are reproved
the drivers get considerable sass" for
their pains. Only on Saturday a
child in the street narrowly escaped
accident In front of a team.

FORTY MILES OF
TREES PLANTED
THE N. p. PLANTS 10000 GOLDEN
RUSSIAN WILLOWS FOR SNOW
FENCES ALONG RIGHT or WAY
UNDER DIRECTION CT r. l..
5EALs or THE A. c.

F. l. Beals Of the agricultural coll
lege. who has been in charge Of the
work of planting hedge snow fences
along the right of way Of the North
ern Pacific railroad has returned to
the city and win soon resume his
duties at the college.
Mr.. Beals has been experimenting
the planting OF these new and attrac-
tive fences since April /. He stated
that during the summer he has been
working from ten TO thirty men and
has planted 100000 Golden Russian
willows, which are being used for the
fences. These trees will replace all
the old wooden fences which have been
great expense to the company and
are far from attractive.
Althogether about forty miles Of
trees have been planted including
those put into the nursery at Buffalo,
where the company is raising the
trees for this work. Fences have been
planted from Magnolia to Buffalo,
from Bracken to Oriska and about
four miles west OF Sanborn. The
trees set out in the spring have grown
from five to six feet during the sum
mer and these will need little atten-
ton other than keeping them trim
med.
AS a snow-break these fences will
prove far superior TO the old wooden
arrangement. On the north side of
the track two rows are planted, one
row 100 feet and the other It's feet
from the track On the south side
one row is being set out. These fences
are decorative as well as useful. The
work is being done under the general
supervision of Prof. G. B. Waldron of
the A. c., in whom the choosing of a
suitable variety of shrub for the pur-
pose was placed by the railroad COM
pany.
1t will take several years to COM
plete this great work but when once
finished will give the railroad some
thing that is far superior in every
respect to the kind Of snow fences now
| in use.
