CITY TO DO
CELEBRATING
THIS YEAR

You need not save up to buy
fireworks this year for you will
probably not be allowed to shoot
them.
The commission this morning
considered the "safe and sane"
Fourth.
TITS NO use trying to do away
with the celebration but the city
ough to do it," said the mayor.
81 think we ought to prohibit
anybody shooting anything and
then let the city get up a big cele-
bration at the park or somewhere
and have fireworks and speech
making and all that. There are
always lot of windy fellows who
want to make speeches." said
Fawcett.
The other members of the COM
mission thought 1t would be a
good idea, SO it is likely the city
will do the celebrating for every
body this time.
The city may also hire a band
for Sunday concerts through the
summer. The matter Will be tax
en- up next week.

MURDERER
IS FREED

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
NAlNAIMO, b. c., May 90
After four hours and ten minutes
deliberation the jury in the cele-
brated local murder case of Rev.
Holmes, the fourth jury to consid-
er it, at late hour last night
brought in a verdict of not guilty
and William Holmes, charged with
the murder of Gus Carlson Sep
tember 13 last, was Immediately
discharged.
Holmes was a boarder at the
home of Gus Carlson and the mur-
dered man had an idea that his
wife and Holmes were too friend
ly. Carlson had told him to
leave the house several times. The
man was found dead in his room,
evidently having been killed by a
club, and Mrs. Carlson was tied in
her room.
The woman is of a hysterical
nature and told several stories of
the alleged happenings OF the
night of the crime. Public SYM
pathy in Nanaimo has all along
been with Holmes.

CRASH AT
DEPOT

George A. Bond was sent to thu,
Fannie Paddock hospital with a
slight bruise on his left knee and
leg as a result of an accident that
occurred at 10:30 this morning on
the construction work Of the new
union depot.
While placing rock weighing
-four or five tons in the east wall
of the building. a defective cable
snapped, letting the 90-foot der
rick drop to the west and across
the floor of the building. The
weight of the first derrick broke
the guy lines which connected IL
with the two remaining derricks,
bringing the other two to the floor
with a crash that could be heard
for blocks and dropping heavy
timbers and cables among a score
of workmen.
That a number of men were not
killed is considered miracle.
