FAMILY KILLED
AS they SLEPT

ELLSWORTH, Kan. Oct. 49,
Slain as they slept Sunday night, the
bodies of Will Snowman, a chauffeur,
his wife and three small children
were discovered last night in the
Snowman home by a neighbour who
CHANGED to call and VINO entered the
house whei no one responded to his
knock.
The features OF all the victims
were battered beyond recognition by
the blows of an axe, which the STAY
er had used. The youngest member
of the family, baby. had been beaten
until it's head was severed from the
! body.
The authorities thus far have failed
to find anything pointing to the
cause for the crime nor clues to the
guilty person.

NORTH DAK01AN::
IS DROWNED

HASTINGS, MIMI, Oct. 18-The
body of Scott Dietrich, age about 80
years, a wealthy farmer and ranche1
from Straubville, N. D., was found
floating in the Mississippi river of
Point Douglas, two miles above here
yesterday. On the person of the
drowned man were found letters from
his mother and sister at 42O Kin st.,
KutZtown, Pa. A bill of lading show
ing that he had shipped one car load
of cattle to South St. Paul from
Straubville, and another one to Blue
Island, ILL.,, led to the belief that he
should have had more money on his
person than the $50 which was found.
The BODY showed no marks of violence
but the manner in which the man got
into the river is a mystery.

Some of Bismarck's advantages wit

Some of Bismarck's advantages with
which all are familiar, are its un
equaled railway facilities. Business
institutions and wholesale houses can
reach out from this central point and
touch every portion of the state. The
assurance that the Milwaukee and
probably the Minneapolis and St,
Louis railways will be here within
two years will mean that the state
capital will have the very best rail-
road accommodations of any city in
the northwest.
The city has an ideal location. 1t
is built on the banks of the greatest
navigable highway in the world. 1t
has an unlimited supply of pure
water. 1t is question of only a few
years before the water shipping facil-
tiles will be utilized. The country is
new yet, but the greet power at the
city's disposal will not be allowed to
go to waste forever. The climate is
healthful. An the city is rapidly be-
coming City Beautiful The

predicted that within the ensuing dec

There is. or was. in Berlin certain
cafe where rudeness is the keynote of
the waiting staff. Every patron who
enters the restaurant is hustled
roughly into a seat. abruptly interrc~

to submit to seeing his food thrust
before him with as little ceremony as
one might show to stray dog. This

SETTLED AT LAST.

That the primary cause of the de-
structicn of the battle shig Maine was
| the explosion Of subterranean mine
or some similar continuance, was the
verdict Of the board of United States
naval experts, rendered yesterday in
the report of the Vreeland board,
which returned last night from Ra-
vana. The board is unanimously OF
the opinion that an explosion external
to the ship caused the explosion OF
the vessels magazines. This con
clusion was reached after two weeks
spent in Havana examining the wreck.
1t is hoped that the above will set
tic once and for all this question
which has been open during the past
thirteen years. There was every
reason from the first to believe that
the terrible disaster TO the United
States battleship was the work CT
fends. Whether the Spanish author
tiles had anything to do with the das-
tardiy act is still an open question.
The explosion may have been the
work Of others who were desiring
American interference in Cuba. The
late General FitZhush Lee, who was
consul for the United States at Tia
rana at the time, said the Maine was
blown up by mine. He was there
and was supposed 10 be in posi-
ton to know. notwithstanding this,

trv prefer to believe the. explosion
was the result Of an accident on board
