JUDGMENT
IN MILLER CASE
AFTER DELIBERATING TWO AND
d ONE-HALF HOURS JURY
FINDS FOR PLAINTIFF.
CASE WILL BE APPEALED
Attorneys For Taylor Coal Co. Not
Satisfied With Verdict-Other
Circuit Court Notes.

After celebrating about two and
one-half hours the jury sitting in the
Don Millers admr. VS.. Taylor Coal
Co. case found the plaintiff damaged
to the extent of $1,000. The attor-
neys for the coal company are not
satisfied with the verdict and an ap-
peal is certain. This is the second
time the case has been tried in Ohio
Circuit Court, the Court of Appeals
granting the defendant a new trial.
Plaintiff was given $4,000 damages
in the former hearing.
Don Miller died about a year ago
and plaintiffs, his estate, claim that
death was due to tuberculosis caus-
ed by an injury received when a
mule in the Taylor Coal Company
mines ran away. Many fine points
of law were involved and the. case
has attracted considerable interest
in the section of the county in which
the accident occurred.
Following is the verdict and per-
sonel of the jury: eve, of the
Jury, find for the plaintiff and fix
damages at $4,000. tSigned) Mack

FOR
ROAD BUILDING
SENATE PASSES FEDERAL AID
BILL TO ASSIST STATES IN
HIGHWAY BUILDING.
$l,5lO,OOO FORKENTUCKY
Will BE Great Help to Blue Grass
State Provided She Puts Up
Like Amount.

Washington, May S.--Under the
terms of the revised bill, providing
for Federal aid in the construction Of
rural post roads, that passed the SEN
ate today, Kentucky will receive a
generous amount during the each of
the five years for which the approp-
Ration is carried.
OF the S5,OO0,OOO to be expended
by the Federal Government during
the next fiscal year, for road improve
ment work in the several states, Ken
tucky's share is 100000. During
the second year when $10,OOO,OOO Is
to be spent, the States apportion-
ment is 1901, 200; during the third
year, the State is scheduled to re-
ceive $301,S0 of the SIS, 200, 900 to
be expended; during the fourth year
$402,400 is Kentucky's share of the
$20,0O0,O00 and for the fiscal year
ending June 80, 1921, when $685.
100000 is to be spent the State is to
receive s503,000 for road building
purposes.
Kentucky's Share. -~~,t
The apportionment to Kentucky
and her sister States is made on the
bases of area, population, and the
mileage of rural delivery and star
routes. Kentucky embraces 40,1S1
square miles; her population is said
to be 2,2S9,905 and she has 26,769.-
"a miles of rural delivery and star
routes. AS a result, the State is
scheduled to receive 2.O12 per cent.
of the Federal app6rtlonment; pro-
vided, of course, she complies with
the provisions of the proposed law.
Credit Plan Defeated.
The bill, known as the Bankhead
Good Roads Bill, was passed without
a record vote. 1t provides $4,000
900 in construction of post roads,
contingent upon an equal expendi-
ture blythe States. A fight, led by
Senator Smoot, of Utah. to extend
the credit of the United States to the
States for construction of roads was
lost AZ to 20.
The bill appropriates s5,000,000
for the year ending June 80, 1917,
with increasing appropriations until
1921 when the entire amount is to
have been spent. The money is to be
apportioned by the Secretary of Ag-
riculture, according to the terms Of
the bill.
Senator Nelson, of Minnesota, and
Senator Lippitt, of Rhode Island,
FLASHED in the closing moments of the
debate after the Rhode Island Sen
ator had introduced table showing
that three Eastern States, New York,
Massachusetts and Pennsylvania,
would contribute through their taxes
more than one-half of the entire re-
venue appropriated for roads.
West Enriching East.
81 have heard so often that GER
tain States pay more than their share
of the income tax, that l am getting
tired of that" Senator Nelson stated.
"The Eastern States are able to pile
up the great fortunes because they
draw on the Western country for 1t.
They have not got this money from
Europe, but from us consumers in
the West, and l am getting tired OF
their objecting TO pay back a small
portion of it to the people of the
West"
The measure is substitute for the
Shackleford bill. which passed the
House, providing that not more than
S25, 900 900 should be appropriated

From English Family

Funeral arrangements for Otto

suicide. have not been made yet, but
the services probably will be held to-
morrow from the mortuary chapel of
the Gard e. Moore parlors, where the
services were held today for his victim
Mr. Deacon
Today, the body Of the murderer lay
in a portion OF the undertaking es-
tahlishment, while servicec were being
| said over the remains of his victim in
nearby room.
Suket lived in Fargo many years
ago, having first come here about
twenty-five years ago. was married
here, and after remaining for several
years, moved to the vicinity OF Finley,
where he owned farm.
About five years ago he sold out his
farm near Finley and returned to Csss
county, and purchased the land on
| which he and his family have been
| living since. and where he killed him
self.
| The farm is composed Of 226 acres
| lying just east of the Sheyenne river
on the north side of the Red Trail. The
financial condition OF the family Is far
from the best, as there is known to be
a $1,000 mortgage on the land.
Man Of High Character.
John Deacon, Suket's victim had
only one living relative, his brother.
| Arthur Deacon, 14l2 First avenue
south, this city.
Deacon was a bachelor, who for
| forty years had lived on this little
place just in the bend of the Sheyenne
| river. He was widely known over the
county, and was we'll liked by every
| one who knew him.
Home Reveals Character.
In his way he was rather a charac-
| ter: he was a great lover of nature
\ and books and his little home, where
he lived so long and where he died 50
violently at the hands of an insane
neighbor, was model Of neatness and
| comfort.
Deacon came from an old English
| family, and was able to trace his
forebears back to 1881 in an un-
broken line, and has in his little
Sheyenne river place many relics OF
| the past Shelves Of books line the
walIs-books all Of the best, which bear
mute testimony to the esthetic tastes
and scholarly qualities of the murder
| ed man.
TIE had only about four acres Of land
where he lived, but he kept this in the
| best OF condition, and while not
| luxurious, his home was one Of modest
comfort and restful environment.
Friend Of Wild Life.

| mails that inhabited the fringe of
| timber along the Sheyenne and which
almost surrounds his house were his
| friends This is borne out by the fact
that he had built many shelves through
the timber where he daily scattered
feed for the birds when the SHOWS
covered the ground and food was hard
for the feathered denizens to pro-
cure.

Lieber, with Gerry and Kemp, sat in
the shade of the veranda, smoking after
the midday meal The stock had been
corralled, but, ON Kemp's advice, the
start for Fazenda Flores was to be
made halfway through the afternoon.
There was to be great moon that
night and the drive would be robbed of
the perils of darkness to cattle as we'll
as of the horrible heat.
The three were silent, half somno-
lent, when a passing herder grunted
and pointed westward with his chin.
Lieber stood up and looked. A pillar
of dust was coming across the desert.
He could see men riding and some
thing else. He took his field glasses
from a peg and looked again. "Fu-
neral, or a sick man." he said and sat
down to wait. Kemp started whiting
to keep himself awake. Since the hour
of Lieber's confession he had hardly
spoken.
When the cavalcade came within
easy view Gerry stood up and watched.
He could not hide his curiosity like
Lieber and Kemp. On front Of the
horses caEe four men bearing a sag
cling hammock on pole. They were
running in quick, springy steps that
made the hammock sway gently from
side to side. The pace they kept up
under the burden was marvellous.
They were followed closely by eight
horsemen. At the first signs of falter-
ing among the bearers, four of the
riders would throw themselves off
their ponies and run under the pole.
The change of relay was made without
stop, without a pause. The freed
ponies stood with hanging heads and
styaddled legs. Even from distance
one could see that the burdened men
had run the wiry little beasts off their
feet. They were AL in, but the men
were still erect-keen. With final
squirt the cortege drew up before the
veranda. Lieber stood up. Dead or
dyinge" he asked.
Master. we do not know" an
swered the Oldest of the men, their
leader.
"Fever or smallpox asked Lieber
Fever"
With a look OF relief Lieber went
down the steps to the hammock. A sheet
had been thrown over the pole to keep
off the worst of the sun. He pulled
1t of. A CHASTITY sight met his eyes,
but he did not shrink. Bring him up
