Frank, Bryant, the versatile editor
of the, Napoleon Homestead, came up
Monday, on business, and will return
this morning. Mr.. Bryant says the
people along the south 500 are very
much pleased with the new passenger

Bismarck, transact their business : at
the banks, the land office, the capitol
or with any of the business houses,
either in the afternoon or in the morn

necessary to spoil three days for such
a trip. Mr.. Bryant has also been hon.
ored by the people naming his home
township after him, and making him
chairman of the board of supervisors.
Mr.. Bryant is a pioneer in Napoleon,
has done much boosting for that sec

and the elevator, being pinioned
about the stomach.
Body Pinioned.
1t was Impossible to move the ele-

chop away the ceiling and a part Of
the wall, in order to remove the body.
While the unfortunate man vas not

state Of semiconsciousness and asked
them to get him out. After several
minutes he was released and DR..
Fisher did what he could to restore
him, but there was no possible hope
for him and he passed away.
One Of the first witnesses was
Chas. Shart0w and D. c. Ramp, who
heard cries in that direction and ran
to the rescue of the unfortunate man.
They claim there was nothing said by
deceased as to how the accident hap.
pened, and all that he said was in an
undertone, asking to be released.
The remains were. Immediately re.
moved to his own undertaking room.
The Probable Cause.
Several who were of the first on the
scene of the accident are of the opin.
ion that Mr.. Field. attempted to start
the elevator, and being unacquainted
with it started 1t the wrong way.
When the cage raised a short distance
Mr.. Fields back struck the top of the
door. knocking him over the edge just
in time to be caught. He was in a
position as if reaching for one of
the cables. This seems to be the
most reasonable solution of the acct
dent, and is. c%oncurred in by the jury.

to the wife was left to Rev. Jackson,
Rev. NShute and Mrs. Harvey Harris.
Mrs. Field showed wonderful nerve
and calmness and bore the shock eX-

The Verdict.
Owing to the fact that Mr.. Field
was the coroner, 1t was necessary for
Judge Pierce to act in the case. The
jury was made up Of Geo. Welch, w.
II. Cassclman and NJ. J. Mckenzie.
While they did not locate the blame,
yet none of the employees were charg-

determined as accidental.

RENTING HOUSE FOR
IMMORAL USE
IS ILLEGAL
SUPREME COURT HOLDS LAW
AGAINST DEALING IN FUTURES
is INSTITUTIONAL.

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 25.-The su.
preme court held that the renting of
house with the knowledge that it
is to be used as house of prostitution
Is an offense in Mississippi under the
common law and constitutes a misde-
meanor, indictable and punishable.
This is the first time such case has
been decided, Judge Smith dissenting
The court reversed the decision of
the lower court at Vicksburg in con-
Victing Clarence Horn, white, Grip
pied peddler, of manslaughter and SEN
fencing him to two years in the pen
1tentiary. 1t is said Horn acted in
self-defense when he knocked down
and killed Roscoe Shropshire on the
street in Vicksburg in the fall of 1911,
after he had been attacked.
According to another decision a
court of equity has jurisdiction at the
instance of the minority stockholders
to appoint a receiver and wind up
the affairs of a growing corporation.
In the case of A. N. Beattie, of Goa
homa county, the supreme court re-
verses its lower court for sustaining
demurrers, and says the statute pro-
hibiting the carrying on in MISSISSIPPI
pi of the business of dealing in fu-
lures on margins is constitutional and
not in conflict with the interstate COM
merce law of the United States, be-
cause the state has the right to reg
ulate any business conducted within it.
The court also holds that in the in
dictment for running bucket shop
it is unnecessary to give the exact ad.
dress, the statement that it is in a Ger.
tain state and county being sufficient
