assftassij.:>s

Chicago, Feb. 5-Four true bills
charging city hall officials with con
spiracy in connection with the "sfale
rock sewer frauds we're returned by

indicted were John Erickson, city en-
gineer; Michael H. McGovern, con-
tractor; Paul Redieske, former depu-
ty commissioner of public works, and
Ralph A. Bonnell, former assistant
city engineer.
All four, with the exception of
Ericsson, were indicted short time
ago in connection with the alleged
attempt to defraud the city of about
$25 900 in building of section NJ OF
the Lawrence avenue sewer. "Shale
rock" scandal was in regard to the
construction of section D" of the
same sewer. The city paid the Nc
Govern company more than $4,000
for the removal of a large quantity
of so-called "shale rock" Upon ex-
animation by experts it was stated
that the "rock" was nothing more
than hard clay and offered little OBJ
struction in excavating. Mr. Nc
Govern was the contractor in charge
of the construction, and was the man
paid for the removal of the "shale
rock" Bonnell certified that it was
rock. Ericsson approved Bonnell's de-
cision. Redieska then put his stamp
of approval on the work, and the city
paid the money to McGovern.
Second indictments were returned
against McGovern, Bonnell, Redeiske
and Senev, the others who were in
dicted last week on charges of at.
tempts to defraud the city out OF
$250,000 for work on another part

A scHuMANN- HElNK STORY.
Great Contralto Gave Concert at
Champion Not on Schedule.

A Marquette man relates n pretty
story in which Madam Schumann-
Heink is the central figure, says the
Mining Journal. With her party, Mad
am Schumann- IIeink left Monday
morning for Hancock, where she sang
that evening at the Kerredge theater.
At Champion a long wait was neces-
sary, because the St. Paul train from
Chicago was belated. While Madam
Schumann- Heink was strolling abou,
the depot platform she was approach
ed by two little barefooted girls. The
elder carried bit of geranium bios
SONS, which she proffered to the great
contralto, saying: MY mother says
you are the great singer, and told me
to give you this" The little one was
questioned by Madam Schumann-
Heink and their colloquy led to the lat
ter accompanying her to her home, a
short distance away. 1t was humble
bit of home, much too small to ac-
commodate its family of seven chill
dren, but one of its decorations was
picture of the Madam, cut from
newspaper and fixed to the wall.
This little family group had Schu-
mann Heink concert all of its own, for
learning that there was a piano in
neighboring house, she escorted the
brood there and, securing the requisite
permission, sat down and poured Out
some of her wondrous melody to the
manifest delight of her small circle O.
listeners. This treat to the little ones
was followed by a substantial recogni.
ton of their material needs i'm Tho
form of check which was to be usec
to buy them footwear, and Schumann'
Heink added another to her chapter o.
gracious deeds.
This isn't a press agents story.
Is related by a gentleman who learned
of It indirectly. If Schumann- Heinz
had a word about 1t, like as not j
would not be published. But it. as did
her visit to the Marquette prison, gives
glimpse of the strength of her kind
ly interest in people of all degrees anC
stations, and her lovable and Chart
able character.
