PRINCIPALS OF SHOOTING
scRAPE BOTH LIED TO COUNTY
coUNT-oNE LAUGHS IN COURT
AN THEN 10 TRIED FOR AS
SAULT

The trial Of William Anderson, the
Winona, Minn negro who wrew a gun
on William Jetor yesterday was held
in police court this morning. There
were many witnesses subpoenaed.
though 1t was unnecessary for all to
take the stand to testify, as sufficient
evidence was given in the testimony of
the first four who appeared. Anderson
was accused Of clipping with Jetor's
wife and without warningf, IT is said,
drew gun on the st. Paul man in
front of the Red River hotel on Front
street yesterday. The latter succeeded
in knocking him down and taking the
weapon away from him. In so doing.
the defendant averted, Jetor drew
knife with the intention Of cutting
Anderson.
During the trial Jetor sat by the
side OF the states attorney and
chuckled quite audibly as each testi-
mony was given. None of the wit
nesses had seen the knife and knew
nothing Of such an incident in the
fray. This so pleased the complaining
witness that he laughed outright.
His mirth was not long lived, how
ever, for no sooner had the Anderson
case been disposed of and the defen-
dan held to the county court and sent
to jail In default of bond fixed at 500.
than the states attorney prepared a
complaint against Jetor for assault
and battery. Things took a different
aspect at once and the exuItant ne
gro's laughter of a moment before
melted into regret and he became quite
serious.
He was found guilty Of assault and
battery and bound over to the county
court also, with bond fixed at 500.
and in default of which, he too walked
away to the county Jail to await trial
The twi of them, indignant at each
other, and each gloating over the mis-
fortune OF the other. were handcuffed
together and left the court room to-
gether with Deputy Sheriff Bingham in
charge.

Young Lady Falls in Sewer Ditch in
Residence District in Minot
Minot, n. D., July 16.-Distressing In

well known Minot young lady, just
after returning from the dance at
Spring Park lake, when in entering her
home in the fashionable residence dis
trict OF the city she fell to the bot
tom OF an excavation being made for
city sewer extensions and was COM
PEELED to remain there for several hours
until by dint Of painful effort, unaided
she again reached terra frma and
gained her room.
The lady in question returned home
from the dance some time before mid
night last night In front of the place
where she rooms the city has force
or men working on extensions for the
sewer system. The ditch is about
twelve feet deep and narrow as the
grave. She missed her footing and fell
to the bottom.
Then her predicament was anything
but pleasant. Most women would
have screamed and reused the neigh
borhood, but this one didn't. She pre-
served silence, although suffering some
slight injury, and waited for a friendly
pedestrian to CALAMITY raise her from
the depths. But the hour was too late
for many pedestrians to be abroad
and she finally decided the only thing
TO do was to get out herself.
1t was after 1880 this morning be-
fore her efforts were crowned with

500 STOPS WORK
AT Devils LAKE

Devils Lake, N. D., July ls,-Eght
cars Of material which had been nm
LOADED here for the 500 railroad for
bridge and culvert work, is being load
ca up and shipped away-where, no
one seems to know.
Mayor McGlory, who is the local
attorney for the road states that the
contractor who has the work near the
city has orders to quit work TODAY.
It Is understood that the 500 has
ordered all work stopped on the pro-
posed line from Medford TO Drake
The reason assigned by some ia dine
TO haul to market as in former wears
outlook there viii not be as much grain
TO haul to market as informer wears
and the company is In no hurry To
complete the road until there Is brsi-
ness In sight. That may be one rea-
son. Another reason is that the mon
ey market is Tightening up and IL is
hard to get money to build railroads
while the irresponsible insurgent rab-
Die is threatening to do SO many
things. Still another reason advanced
why work in this locality has been
discontinued is on account OF the diff
~NS SAASSdAltSIEu III procuring right
of-way through the city. It has been
generally understood that the right
of-way was all arranged for sometime
ago, but 1t seems it was not. Some of
the farmers are demanding prices
which the company considers outrage
GUS, and several pieces of city proper
ty are being boosted far beyond what
Is considered a reasonable figure, A
story is in circulation today to the
effect that the 500 may not after all
run into Devils Lake, and that they
can better afford 20 pass up the town
than to pay the price demanded to get
IN The original plan was to run about
five miles north Of town, or on the
south side of the lake. The company.
X seems, has never been any too well
satisfied with the idea Of running into
Devils Lake as it disarranges the plans
for an air line from Medford to Drake
and forces them to make an expen-
sive cut and fill near Medford In order
to get out directly west.
Anyway, work has stopped. How
long, 1t will stop or when it will be re- |
sumed If ever, no one in Devels Lake |
knows.

sioner of Insurance e. C. Cooper. who
is in the city this afternoon returning
to Bismarck from trip to Des Laos,
where he has been to adjust a number
of the losses there through the recent
fire stated that the people at Des Laos
are still confident the fire was of In
cendiary origin, but that 1t is very
doubtful IL the guilty party will ever
be brought to justice. Mr.. Cooper says
the loss on the sixteen business
houses destroyed by the fire was about
100000.
The business men at Des Laos are
taking their loss philosophically and
in the face of crop prospect that is
not the best they are planning to re-
build.
The Farmers bank has already be-
gun to clear ground for the erection
of a new brick building and others
of the merchants will start work on
new business houses as soon as the

Change in Engine Equipment of

reciprocating engines originally conteTn-
plated. high speed marine steam turbines
with reducing gears, made by the West
inghouse Machine Company. has been ap-
proved by the Secretary of the Navy.
This change promises a very consider
able reduction in weight of machinery
and space occupied, and permits an addi-
ton Of 176 tons to the coal bunker capac-
ity Of the vessel.
No alteration in the price to be paid
by the government Is involved.
The turbine machinery with gears is TO
he built by the Westinghouse Machine
Company complete and furnished to the
shipbuilders for installation. An extern
sion of thirty days in the contract time
has been granted to cover time lost
in consideration of the change.
The same shafting and auxiliary ma
chinery are to be used, so that in case
the turbine installation proves made
quate 1t can be removed and reciprocal
ing engines installed without difficulty.
The builders are SO sanguine as to the
success of the proposed type of machin-
cry that they have guaranteed, in the
event of it's proving unsuccessful. to re-
move it and install reciprOcating engines
without additional cost to the govern
ment. merely STIMULATING that they shall
be given an extension OF time Of nine
months to build and install reciprocating
engines in the event of such failure.

were hustled TO shelter in nearby apart

entirely consumed. only the brick walls
remaining.
