Dear Sir: Through your kindness
| wish to inform our friends and
neighbors. that my wife has sue
cessfully underwent a difficult
and serious operation at the St.
Joseph hospital at Dickinson,
and from all appearance is doing
the best possible under the cir
cumstance.
We will never cease to praise
the care my wife receives from
the sisters. Their devoted lives
do not receive the credit due
them, their every act is but an
act of kindness. coming at every
call with sympathetic smile and
leaving only when nothing more
can be done for the comfort OF
their patient. No christian life
will receive a greater reward for
their devoted lives than these
sisters. trust nothing will pre-
vent a speedy recovery that my
wife may soon return to her
family and place as a devoted
mother.
Thanking the many friends
for their words of best wishes,
remain.
Yours respectfully.

Auto Jumps
From Bridge
Falls Distance of About Seven
Feet-None of the Occupants
Seriously Hurt But Cosnider-
ably Shaken Up.

Last Sunday while an auto
party composed of Louis Harth,
c. |. Crone, Mrs. William Crone
and two children and Mr.. and
Mrs. Vincent Pippert, of St.
Louis, Mo-, were on their return
trip from the north country, they
met with a peculiar but fortunate
accident.
When near Frank Nehl's place
they were obliged to cross a
bridge, the approach to which
had been recently filled. The
dirt was loose and soddy and
when the car struck this place the
driver lost control of the machine
and it went over the side of the
bridge, dropping a distance of
about seven feet to the creek be-
low. 1t was fortunate indeed
that some of the occupants of the
car were not killed or seriously
hurt, but aside from slight bruis-
es and a general shaking up no
further damage was done. One
of Mrs. Crone's children. which
was on her lap at the time the
car took the leap, was thrown in
to the lap of Louis Harth in the
front seat, who was driving the
car, but was uninjured.
Some of the minor but essen
tial part for the operation of the
car were broken as the car went
over the side of the bridge, but
even that sustained only slight
damage. The car landed right
side up. A short time after the
accident ]. P. Reeve happened
to come along and brought the
entire party back to town. The
car was left until the next day.
The accident was a lucky one.

whether or not he would accept
the position.

INC mayor tnen tOlo the coun
Gil very forcibly that he did not
have to closet himself with
men and get their consent to ac-
cept an Office before he made an
appointment. That it was his
duty to select a man whom he
thought would make good Off
cial and then use his influence, if
necessary, to get him to accept.
He stated that this manner of Sc
lecting officials was perfectly
lawful and was followed by the
governor of the state as we'll as
the president of the United
States. Mr.. Linger moved that
the appointment be confirmed
and all but Mr.. Lowell voted
yes" Mr.. Greiner qualified the
next morning.
Mr.. Jepson again moved to
adjourn, but the motion was
ignored and lost for the want of
second.
The question of the city audi
tor was then brought up and the
mayor gave the council to under
stand in a very forceful manner
that he did not propose to be
dictated to by them in any par
ticular regarding the appoint
ment of an auditor, considering
the position they had taken on
all appointments offered by him.
He stated the law made it his
duty to appoint and the council S
to confirm, unless they could
give good and sufficient reasons
why the man appointed was not
capable to act, and inasmuch as
no reason had been set forth
against either Mr.. Burt or MIR.
Haigh, he would not withdraw
his appointment under any cir
cumstances. MIR. Lowell stated
that personally he did not believe
MIR. Haigh a man of independent
action and admitted that he was
not friendly, and also said, evi-
dently talking for the solid
five, that the council neve,
would confirm Haigh for audi.
tor. He admitted that person.
ally he did not like MIR. Haigh
but was promptly informed by
the mayor that Personaiities
should not enter into the trans.
action of city business. That they
were working for the public and
when a man offered a bond OF
$4,000 signed by fifteen of the
most prominent farmers in the
Golden Valley, that he should
lay aside his personalities and
consider the public need. Furth.
er he would not consider any OBJ.
jections unless they were made a
matter of record, whereupou
MIR. Lowell wrote the following
into the record and then read il
to the council:
MIR. Lowell stated that
he did not consider MIR.
Haigh a man who would
fill the office of city auditor
in an Independent and busi-
ness like manner, notwith-
standing the attitude of the
mayor or city council on
any question and would
likely to perform acts that
would require legal action
to restrain him for consum-
mating"
After Mr.. Lowell read the
above the mayor instructed him
to let the record show that if Mr..
Lowell could substantiate his
charges against Mr.. Haigh at the
next meeting. his name would be
withdrawn and another offered.
The meeting then adjourned.

cases arising before their pass

age.
Permitted to Make Entry.
Senator Gronna bill however
will apply to future as we'll as to
past cases, and if it passes the
House in its present form. any
entryman who through no fault
of his own loses his homestead
before making final proof will be
permitted to make another entry
whether he made his former en-
try before the passage of the bill
or whether he makes it in the fu-
ture. 1t will also give relief 10
those who have been so unfor-
tunate as to lose two prior en-.
tries; previous laws have permit
ted another entry only in case the
entryman had made but one
prior entry.
Must Show Good Faith.
To prevent persons making
speculative entries from selling
their Accomplishments and then
making new entries. the bill re-
quires applicants to show to the
satisfaction of the department
that their prior entries were made
in good faith that they have not
speculated in their homestead
rights and that they have not
been guilty of any fraud in con-
nection with such former entries.

Popular Young
Lady Weds
Miss Elsie D. Vossbeck and Leo
Mckeever Joined as Life PART
ner's-The Event a Surprise
to Friends.

At 7:45 Wednesday evening,
Rev. Father Wolphers spoke the
words which united as man and
wife, Miss Elsie D. Vossbeck of
this city, and Mr.. Leo Mckeever
of Dickinson. The ceremony was
performed at the parsonage and
was witnessed by only the i'm
mediate relatives of the con-
tracing parties. The wedding
couple were attended by Mr.. aud
Mrs. A. ]. Vossbeck, brother of
the bride.
After the tying of the knot the
company returned to the home
of the bride where bountiful re-
past was served, presided over
by Mrs. George Irving and Miss
Julia Murphy.
The bride is the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. ]. Vossbeck of
this city, but perhaps is more
widely known as the popular and
efficient clerk at The Ladies
Emporium. She is an exceed
ingly popular young lady among
all who have made her acquain-
tance and her friends feel that
what will be the loss of Beach in
her change of residence, will be
gain for Dickinson, her future
home.
Mr.. McKeever is in the employ
of the Northern Pacific railway.
running from Dickinson to Glen
dive. and is well spoken of
among those who know him here.
The happy couple will be at
home in Dickinson after August
IS, and carry with them to their
new home the best wishes of the
friends of the bride for long,
prosperous and happy life. in
which the Chronicle desires ito
unite.
Among those from out of
town who attended the wedding
were Mr.. and Mrs. Hugh Me-
keever and daughter, Stasia.
parents and sister of the groom.
The wedding was very much
of a surprise to the friends of the
bride here. but was occasioned
by an unexpected, but short va
cation granted the groom. He
was obliged to return to his work
on Friday morning, but Mrs. Me-
keever will remain in Beach for
a short time before going to
Dickinson.

JIM CONLEY FOUND GUILTY.
Accessory to Murder of Mary Phagan
One Year on Gang.

Atlanta, February 25.-Jim Con-
ley, the negro, was found guilty as
an accessory after the fact of Mary
Phagans murder by jury in the
criminal division of the superior
court Tuesday morning after five min
utes' deliberation, and was sentenc-
ed by Judge Ben H. Hill to twelve
months in the chain gang.
The feature of the trial was a SEN
sational speech by Solicitor General
Hugh NJ. Dorsey who, after recount
ing evidence given at the Frank
trial, declared that the evidence
abundantly establishes the fact that
the hair found on the lathe in the
metal room did come from Mar.
Phagan's head.
He ridiculed DR.. H. F. Harris
opinion that the hair was not the
slain girls, and he insinuated that
the defense of Frank was afraid to
ask the States witness, DR.. Harris,
about the hair, otherwise the de-
fense would have elected DR.. Harris
opinion as he got the opinion OF
Franks witness, Magnolia Kennedy,
on the same point.
When the trial of the case was
resumed at o'clock Tuesday morn
ing, Albert Mcknight, the negro
wanted by Solicitor Dorsey as a wit
ness, had not been located by the
score of detectives who have been
searching for him, and Mr.. Dorsey,
who later intimated that he feared
that Conley would disapl ear as Nc
knight has done, if given his liberty,
told the court he was ready for the
argument.
Judge Hill then stated that he
would eliminate the felony indict-
ment from the proceedings, and let
the trial proceed on the misdemeanor
indictment, which carried with it as
an extreme penalty only one year
in the chain. gang. Later in the
charge he explained his reason for
this ruling that, in his opinion, the
facts in this case did not come under
the definition of an accessory after
the fact, when the act is a felony.
The law in such case, as construed
by Judge Hill, is that person must
harbor or conceal a person convict
ed of a crime; in other words, the
law practically covers only the case
where a convicted felon is received, !,
after his escape, and is hidden from
the officers of the law.
