MYSTERYIN FARM Death
Death of Fred end Henry Boltmeier
Is Wrapped i'm MISREPRESENTATION
of Death From SuffOcatiOn Is Rout-
ed-Money and Valuables Were
Not Disturbed.

Goodrich, N. D., April 14.-Though
the OFFICIALS have made a complete
and thorough investigation into the
deaths of Fred and Henry Boltmeler'
the two young men found dead IN
their shack several days ago., the
cause of death has not yet been re-
vealed The men were discovered ~
ing in their bed by a neighbor and 1t
was first supposed that asphyxiat1on
had caused their demise, but later
developments would tend to show
otherwise. AS shown by the evidence
there was no sign of any struggle,
both men were lying in natural pose
of sleeping. Fred Boltmeier appar-
emily died without awakening, as his
eyes were closed and in the position
of a person asleep. His brother Hen
nv had evidently awakened enough to
move his head slightly, and his eyes
we're partly open and he was looking
M. There was no sign of robbery, as
S57 in money was found In their
clothes, their gold watches and three
guns were there. The cause of death
could hardly have been asphyxiation,
as the ashes in the stove indicated
that they had only had wood and pa
per in the stove. The lamp was near
" full of kerosene, and there was
nothing on the chimney to indicate
it had been smoking. One COW and
four horses were found in the barn.
The COW was nearly dead, and the
horses were in bad condition, as
from the evidence submitted, they
had not been fed or watered for sew
en- ...Iht days.

Mrs. Dell Mcvey called on Mrs. J
w. Granting last Thursday and In
crossing the creek the bridge, and
which said bridge is little better than
no bridge, as there is a washout at
each approach, her. horses got fright
ened and ran away. Fortunately the
lady was not hurt as she got out OF
.he buggy and was attempting to lead
the team across the bridge. The
wheels were sunk in a hole near the
bridge and when the horses were n
nally induced to move they started
with a jerk and got away from Mrs.
McVey. This is not the first accident
that has happened and probably not
the last at the same crossing and
there is an opinion among those who
have to use this highway that 1t Is
