At present the principal interest is
Icentered in the mayoralty, for which
two big men of the city are candt-
Gates and against whom not one word

l1he only difference between them IS
the quality OF their progressiveness In
the administration of the affairs nt
Moorhead and the making Of the NUM-
cipality so attractive that 1t will forge
ahead in the matter Of commercial
supremacy.
Also considerable interest is center
ed in the fight for alderman OF the

where the Kiefer influence will be
lcentered. Despite anything to the con-
ltrary, on or off the ticket, Mr. Kieter

SUED FOR STEALING CORPSE

A strange case occurred at Johns
town, Pa, recently, as a result of
dispute between two undertakers con-
corning the burial of tie body of John
Vorchik. One Of tie undertakers,
John Gaydos, and half5a dozen friends
entered the room inswhich Stephen
Brady, the rival funeral manager, had
laid out the body in casket, and
knelt about it as if in prayer When
they arose they grabbed the casket
and carried out the corpse before the
dumfounded mourners could inter-
fere. The Gaydos brigade calmly car
ried the casket to the Gaydos estab-
lishment, transferred the body to an
other casket and sent the empty one
to the Brady place. Relatives Of Vor-
chlk then went before a magistrate
and sued Gaydos for larceny Of the
dead man.
