lifted their hats.

o'clock Saturday that a jury in the
Heaton case was drawn so DR.. Row
an could give his testimony and start
on his trip.

not be found. Later it was learned
that tiriag Of the delay he had started
for Europe. An effort was made TO
overtake him at jamestown and 1T was
reported that he had been nabbed by
the federal officials. but this report
proved to be untrue. An endeayor was
then made to stop him at Fargo and
later at st. Paul bur he seems to have
made a clean getaway.
There Is some reason for the sur
geon's nervousness and flight. He had
his berth engaged on steamer which
sails May 20. This is important as all
steamer berths are sold to August. tie

Woman's Head Almost Sew
cred With a Razor
MURDERER KILLS HIMSELF
VICTIM WAS A pENIzEN OF THE
UNDERWORLD AND THE MAN
WHO KILLED HER WAS HER
PARAMouR-HousE IN WHICH
DEED WAS COMMITTED WAS
PERFECT SHAMELESS WHEN Po-
LICE ARRIVED.

Bismarck, N. D., May 16.-In the
which the denizens of the underworld,
blind pigs and outcasts generally have
been driven to cover, Grace Fox, 80
year-o woman and formerly mem
Der of the demi monde, was killed ear
ly this morning. Her paramour, Ole
Quamme, formerly barber, later a
hangeron at a "blindpig'' in the out
skirts of the city, and who has several
times previously threatened the life
of the woman, with whom he has been
living for several months, committed
the deed and then took his own life.
The woman's throat was cut from
ear to ear with a razor, and so violent
was the sweep Of the weapon in the
hands of Quamme that the woman's
head was nearly severed from her
body, and the edge of the razor was
broken off by contact with the verte-
brae of the neck.
Quamme then stood before the mir
ror in the bureau in the bedroom,
picked up another razor that lay on
the bureau, and. cut his own throat
severing both jugulars and half turn
ing and falling on the same bed with
the woman. Both bodies were found
by another resident of the underworld
who had been summoned by a third
occupant of the house, who foresaw
trouble when Quamme came to the
house shortly before midnight and be-
gan TO threaten and abuse the Fox
woman
The bedroom was shambles when
the officers of the law arrived at the
place in response to summons. Both
bodies were taken i'm charge by Coro-
ner Field and an inquest is being held.
Quamrne, up to seven or eight
mon his ago was a barber and lived at
Mandan. He was once before arr
rested for threatening the life Of the
Fox woman. His home was formerly
at Kerkoven, MINI. He was about
35 years of age.
Quamme came to the house where
the murder and suicide occurred short
ly before midnight and began to
threeten and abuse the Fox woman.
Another woman who was an occupant
of the house. feared trouble. and went
to an adjoining house to summon help.
When they returned the crime had
been completed and both bodies lay
on the bed in the room.
1t developed at the inquest that
Grace Fox was an assumed name and
that her true name is Grace Madden,
and that she lived in st. Paul, where
she now has two sisters. up to two,
years ago.

lars to the farmers of North Dakota
and the northwest in general" is what
w. HI. Grasse, who has charge of the
weather bureau at Moorhead has to
say of the copious rains of Saturday
night and Sunday and Sunday night
and today.
Mr.. Grasse returned home by way
OF Canada this morning from a BUSH
ness trip to Spokane Wash, and he
said the rain has been very general
all over the northwest and that it was
worth millions of dollars to the farm
ers of the northwest.
While the rain was not so greatly
needed in the Red river valley it GER
tainly was needed in the western part
of the state, and came as blessing.
James Quinlivan of Dickinson, who is
IN the city visiting friends and attend
ing to business said that he had no
hesitancy in saying that the lana was
drying up. while 1t is not so bad
in North Dakota" said ne, "still 1
will say that between Detroit and ST.
Paul in Minnesota it was greatly need
ed, and will do worlds of good"
The rain began TO descend at inter-
walls on Saturday evening and during
all night there was more or less of it..
All day Sunday there were short show
ers and last night there was a good,
wholesome rain. With warm weather
following the rain everything will be-
gin to hump in North Dakota.
