SNOWSL|DE BLOCKS
THE n. P. MAIN LINE

Train No. 2 on the Northern Paci-
tc. due here at 7:42 last night, was
annuled. A snowslide at Auburn,
Wash, blocked the Northern Pacific
main line, and tied up all traffic. Ev-
cry northern line to the coast is now
blocked. The Great Northern and
Milwaukee roads have been running
their trains over the n. P. tracks for
the fast week. but the slide yesterday
put the n. p. out Of commission also.
The Great Snow" is believed to be
over, however, and thousands of men
are busy in an effort to open the
railroads. No attempts have been
made for several days to run trains
over the mountains
Trains from the east were a few
hours late, but are running nearer
their schedule than they have run
for weeks

DOG E ] |D[| Wealth v 4
.IE. 4
scrapes Up Gold Buried Many
Years Ago.
Owner Of DOG Turns Money Over to
Administrator of Property-Some
Of the Coins Over Fifty
Years Old.

Dubuque, Ia.-JChn Datlsman, Jr..
painter and paperhanger, lives in the
town OF Richardsville, in house on
the old Maxwell place. A few days
ago his dog was digging under the
porch at the back Of the kitchen, and
Datisman watching him saw some
thing glitter in the dirt. 1t proved to
be :. twenty-dollar gold piece. Then
Datisman did some digging himself.
with the result that, scarcely covered
with earth, was found small tin box
with gold coins. The dog in digging
had raised the top Of the box and
scraped the single coin out with loose
dirt. The box was found to contain
$1,000 in gold coins OF s., $40 and $40
denominations.
Datisman was the only person who
knew of the find. He knew the money
was not his, but he didn't know whom
1t belonged to. He determined to find
the rightful owner if possible and re-
store the money. He consulted no
one about the matter, but refreshed
his mind about the property on which
he was living and made inquiries OF
other persons better acquainted than
he.
It was found that for many years
James Maxwell had lived in the place,
that he was reported to be wealthy
and that it was said he sometimes
buried money. Maxwell died about
fifteen years ago, killed in an Illinois
Central crossing accident. The prop
erty went to his son, Alexander Max
well, who has since died, and is now
in the hands OF an administrator, John
Broessel, who lives near Peosta.
Datisman surmsed that the money
had been buried by the senior Max
we'll and that it now belongs to the
heirs to the Maxwell estate, and so
he went to Peosta and turned it over
to the administrator.
Broessel insisted on Datisman &C.
cepting 5000.
A number of the coins bore dates
of more than fifty years back. The
latest date on any of them was 1899"
on one of the IS pieces. From this
it is evident that Maxwell buried the
money as late as 1900, which was but
year or two before his death. Or
it may be that he had 1t buried there
a long time prior to that time and
simply made additions to his store
as he came into possession OF gold
coins.

ARGUE FOR REHEAR|NC
OF KIDNAPPING CASE

Devils, Lake, n. D., Feb. @.-The
now famous Benson county kidnap-
ping case in which Normal Lnce, de-
teclive, was convicted of stealing the
Michaels child, came up in the district
cOur. before Judge c. W. Butte on a
motion for new trial.
The Benson county jury last fall
wrote the drastic chapter in the case,
by finding that Luce acted with fel-
onons intent in taking the child from
the little school on GrahamS Island.
The argument is an echo of the
longest standing litigation in this
state. barking back to the divorce Of
Michels, the awarding Of the child to
the father by the district court, the
appeal to the supreme court, and the
failure of the latter to enter the order
of the supreme court, which techni-
cally left the possession OF the child
with the father
States Attorney ThOs. Baker of
MinneWaukan, who secured the con-
viction of Luce in the district court,
resisted the motion for new trial,
