There was trouble In the Mansfield

old. had gone to bed the night before
with racking headache. and when her
mother went into her room the next
morning Bertha looked up at her with
q singular expression on her face and
asked:

Light system

Mohall, N. D., Aug. 11-George H
Todd of Minot was here and met with
the city council at an adjourned meet
ing. He submitted for their consider
alton proposition to install an electric
lighting plant and asked for a fran
chise for the project.
Mr.. Todd proposes installing a plant
costing approximately, $4,000 that will
furnish light and power for the resi-
dents of the city and will finance the
deal himself. The proposition he Of
Ifered appealed to the councilmen and
in order to further consider the matter
and post up on some points that will
enter into the granting of such a fran
chise as Mr.. Todd asks, the council
took an adjournment until Aug. 19.
Mayor Gilseth appointed ]. S. Fergu-
son, Chris Thoresn and Ben Balm

port on the matter when the council
meets again and it is pretty certain
that the franchise will be granted, as
the city is very badly in need of a
lighting system and the proposition
Mr.. Todd offers seems to contain all
that could be asked of a company
willing to invest capital and take
chances with conditions as they are
in Mohall.
In the event the franchise is granted
Mr.. Todd agrees to light the streets
of the city, giving a 12 o'clock service,
at a cost of 5000 year It Is estimat-
ed that it will require twenty or more
lights to do this in a satisfactory

ITALIAN KILLED
near nAYELOCk

New England, N. D., Aug. II. -
Petco Guthoff. Greek laborer, was
instantly killed when the gasoline
speeder he was riding jumped the
Milwaukee track few miles east Of
Havelock. Guthoff, in company with
Section Foreman Peter Gubridge and
two other laborers, was on his way
to work when the accident happened.
The speeder was hitting a twenty five
mile clip when a farmers dog, with
out any warning, jumped out of the
grass in front of the little car, ditching
the machine and throwing the oc-
cupants in all directions, Guthoff
landed between the rails, striking on
his head on the ties with such force
that his neck was broken. The others
landed outside the rails and escaped
with few bruises.
A special train was sent out from
New England to get the body and take
the injured laborers back to town.
According to his companions, Gut
hoff has family in Bulgaria. He has
no relatives in this country. After
the inquest the body was turned over

SETTLEMENT in
TAXATION CASE

Bismarck, N. D., Aug. 11.-A settle
ment has been reached relative to the
1911 personal tax against the elevators
and warehouses of the Great Western
Elevator Co. On or about July, l.,
1911 this corporation was reorganized
under the name of the Great Western
Grain Co. and the new company re-
fused payment of their taxes for 1911.
The matter dragged on and under an
opinion of the attorney general the
various counties of the state despaired
of collecting this tax. Some months
ago it was referred to the tax COM
mission and Comr. Geo. E. Wallace,
with the assistance Of States Attor-
ney Brendt of Burleigh county, COM
menced proceedings of secure the pay
ment of the tax in Burleigh county.
Their elevator at Burleigh was seized
by the sheriff and would have been
sold had not the company settled the
tax. While the outcome of the litiga-
ton was doubtful now comes the
Great Western Grain Co. and proposes
to settle this entire tax by paying
one half of the original tax, as we'll
as the penalty and interest. Cass
county has already settled on this
basis and 1t is probable that the vari-
Gus counties will realize a neat sum
