eral muddle. The costs were taxed
to the plaintiff in the novel action.
The side issue of the chickens came
up first, in which John Vetter of
Raleigh, had accused one Jack Guyer
Of stealing innocent fowls from him
and for which the said Jack Guyer
was alleged to have assaulted the &C.
cuser in a manner well calculated to
prove his innocence. The defendant
was fined SIS and costs.
Then the grand larceny event came
off, in which -four men Of the Raleigh
neighborhood, Dennis, Robert McCul-
loch and two Guyer brothers, were &C
cused of having done away with the
menagerie previously described. All
Of the evidence submitted to convict
these men of the offense with which
they were charged was a jack knife
bearing upon the handle the initials
M, A. c., which had been found laying
open or his premises by the complain
ing John Vetter. Blade of said knife
was marked with blood and with
feathers said by experts to have come
from the neck Of a goose. The blame
for the theft was fixed upon the four
men already mentioned, because the
Raleigh Provision house, in which
some of the defendants are directly
and some indirectly interested, sold
some geese about the time of the
theft. and because they had in their
possession a calf's hide, from which
hide the ears had been removed, for
which reason Mr.. Vetter could not
positively identify it, az his stolen
calf had been marked on the ears.
At the trial it was decided that there
vas prosecution without cause and
Justice Macarthur of Leith, to whom
change of venue had been taken from
a Raleigh Justice, dismissed the action.
Attorneys Nelson Of Carson and Lang
er of Mandan prosecuted both cases
and Attorney Nash Of Flasher defend
ed the accused.

GILBY WOMAN is
KILLED; GASOLINE
PLANT EXPLODED

With almost every inch of her body
blistered by fire, Mrs. S. o. Stone of
Gilby, aged 40, died seven hours after
she was injured in the explosion of
gasoline fumes that had filled the
basement of the residence in Gilby.
A second explosion of the gasoline
lighting tank, from which the fumes
causing the first explosion had arisen,
shook the house from its founda-
ton; shattered windows, cracked
walls and broke dishes and glassware
about the home.
Mr.. Stone is the postmaster at Gill
by. About five years 6 he was a
resident of Grand Forks, having a
meat market in connection with the
Hart grocery on DeMers avenue.
Mrs. Stone had gone to the base
ment of her home about $50 o'clock
Sunday morning, striking a match to
find some potatoes.
There was an instant explosion, and
Mrs. Stones clothing took fire. Rush
ing from the basement she reached
the front yard, where she threw her
self into the grass, attempting to eX-
tinguish the flames.
NeighbOrS, attracted by her screams,
went to her assistance. using blankets
with which to shoulder the fire. After
the fire in her outer garments had
been eXtinguished, and the work Of re-
moving her clothes began, it was
found that the blaze still was eating
its way inner under clothes, and be-
fore this was put out. she had been
scared and scorched from the Shout
ders to her feet.
Second Explosion.
Fleetwood Mclean, a son-in~law
and H. c. Dickson, who went into the
basement to eXtinguish the fire, sup
posed they had the blaze entirely out
and left.
Just as they reached the outer air
there was a second explosion, the en-
tire plant going up this time. It is
believed that the first explosion loos-
ened the gasoline tank feeder and
that there was still a fire in the base
ment when the men left.
This second explosion almost wreck
ed the house. The walls were cracked,
windows were blown out, and dishes,
glassware, etc, throughout the house,
were broken.
The accident which killed Mrs,
Stone is the second Of the kind that
has happened at Gilby within a com
paratively short time, the late Girls
Rutherford being the other victim
of such a mishap. Although he was
not killed outright, his death some
time later was, in part, due to the
accident.
Came From MapIeton.
Mrs. Stone had been a resident of
Gilby about tWenty-fOur years, com
ing to this county from Mapleton. N.
D.. where other relatives reside now.
Several years & Mr.. and Mrs.
Stone removed to Grand Forks, Mr..
Stone engaging in the meat business
here. Previous to that time he had
conducted a meat market in Gilby.
About four or five years ago they re
turned to Gilby, Mr.. Stone being nam
ed postmaster.

alleged fact that IL disproved by the
police records.
The statements 81 Mr.. Tslley came as
a surprise to the bistrict-Attorne.. and
his stan. The indictment charges
Sweeney with taking a bride 'on or
about" April 3. 1911.
Even AZ sweeney was not In Harlem
at that time" said Mr.. Whitman this
afternoon. the Indictment stands. mas
much a. the provision OF the statute Is
that the phrase on or about covers n
YEAR Tie date OF q crime alleged does
not have to be specifie,l any closer to
comply with the statute"
The contention OF Mr.. Whitman was
disputed In advance In court by Mr..
Tailey. Undoubtedly the fact that a
faulty date had been mentioned In the
Indictment has been known to Sweeney
and his counsel all along, and has had
It's effect in inspiring their air of Sc
rene confidence.
Assistant District-Attorney Clarke OBJ
Jected to Mr.. Taiiey's motion. lie said
the mere fact that the defense could
rebuff the States Indictment was not
ground for permission to inspect the
Grand Jury minutes. Besides, Mr..
Clarke said. the indictment charged
that Sweeney was in charge OF the
sixth District on or about" April
8. 1911.
Justice Con refused to grant the mo-
ton on the ground set mp by Mr.. Tai
ley. saying that the alleged perjury Is
q question Of fact to be substantiated
or disproved. He said he would con-
slider . motion based on the ground
that without inspection OF the Grand
Jury minutes the defendant could not
get . fAlr trial.
Mr.. TAilsy amended his motion to
cover this point MIR. Clarke asked for
two days In which to prepare an an
swer to the motion and Justice Gon
set the proceeding on the motion for
Wednesday morning.
PLEA OF NOT GUILTY ENTERED
PENDING INSPECTION.
Mr.. Tallsy then entered a plea Of not
guilty on behalf Of Sweeney and the
bail bond furnished at the time OF
Sweeney's arrest was continued.
Sergeant Peter J. Duffy, accused Of
having acted a. Sweeney's collector.
was arradsnsd TO plead 20 the indict-
msnt against him. Abraham Levy APP
pearsd ~ counsel for Duffy. On his
plea that he had Just been called into
the case. permission was given to him
" postpone his plea until Wednesday.
Patroiman John J. Hartigan. indicted
for perjury in falsely swearing that he
did not know Sweeney furnished @ bride
for George A. Sipp, was arraisned. His
counsel. Charles Donnelly. entc red q
plea OF not guilty and asked for speedy
trial. MIR. Donnelly said he could have
entered . motion for an inspection OF

have attacked the indictment. but he
felt IL would be better to get q trial
