COUNCIL WILL HEAR TAX
ASSESSMENT PROTESTS

At its regular meeting next Tues
day night council will listen to COM
plants of tax payers on assessments
made against their property. 1t is
not believed that there will be many
protests when the tax payers are adj
vised that while their valuations have
been very materially increased that
the millage will be decreased and that
the total amount they pay will be
about the same as formerly.

DRAGS SELF 2
MILES TO STOP
TRAIN AFTER Il
LEG SHELTERED

Fort William, Ont, Nov. l.
The engineer of the slow freight
yesterday saw a man standing on
tn etracks, leaning on canoe
paddle and feebly waving a red
/ bandana.
He stopped. The man collapsed.
The stranger, suffering from
high fever, was taken aboard the
freight train, dropped at AmyOt
an dtaken to hospital. This was
his story, CLEANED from his raw
ings:
He was William Anderson and
he lived in AmyOt.
Out hunting, he accidentally
shot himself in the leg two days
ago. The bone was shattered.
With one paddle he made a
splint. His shirt he used as a
bandage. His necktie served as a
tOurniquet.
Patching himself up, he took his
other paddle for a crutch and be-
gan dragging and pushing himself
aICng through two miles of brush
to the railroad. 1t was slow work
and bitter cold. He moved only a
few yards an hour, but he kept on.
He reached the tracks yester-
day. For "a hours he waited,
without food or water, for a train.
He may recover.

Verdict Placing Blame
on Dead Woman Fails
to- Satisfy Mother
CONFESSED AFFECTION
For Pastor to Her Hus.
band; Claimed Love
Reciprocated
tBy Associn.4d Press,

Havre, Mont, Nov. 1-Unexplain-
ed features of the double killing Fri
day of the Rev. Leonard Jacob Chris
tier, an outstanding church man and
orator of the state, and Mrs. Marga-
ret Carleton, member of his con-
gregation, skiA puzzles authorities
here today.
When a coroner's jury Saturday
night returned "a verdict to the effect
that Mrs. Carleton did the shooting
while under the influence of an over
dose of sleeping powders the matter
appeared closed. But Mrs. Carleton's
mother, Mrs. Joseph Pyle, of Butte,
was NOT satisfied, and started a fur
ther investigation, 1t was shown
that the bullet which killed Mrs. Car
Teton had been fired downward, not
upward, as had been testified at the
coroner's inquest. The husband of
the dead woman, former district
Judge Frank E. Carleton, issued a
statement asserting that Mrs. Carle-
ton had confessed to hm her love for
Rev. Mr. Christler, and had intimat-
ed that her love was returned. Mr..
Carleton condemned what he char
acterized as an attempt to white
| wash" Mr.. Christler's character.
Ownership of the gun which was
used in the killing is another mys-
! terry. Mrs. Carleton had a revolver,
small weapon, which was found la
ter among her effects. Mr.. Pyle al
so claimed that diamond rings Mrs.
Carleton was seen wearing Thursday
have not been found and has sugges-
ted that if the rings were taken from
Mrs. Carleton's hand after the shoot
ing, the revolver might have been
placed in the open palm at the same
| tine.
The only story of the shooting told
so far was that of Mrs. Christler, said
to have been the only other person in
the Christler house at the time. She
had her back toward Mr.. Christler
and Mrs. Carleton when she heard two
shots, and turned to see Mrs. Garlic
ton fall, she told the coroner's jury.
City officials and physicians who
answered Mrs. Christler's telephone
call after the shooting found the bod
les in small hall, in which the chief
of police testified at the inquest,
there would not have been room for
third person.
Mr.. and Mrs. Pyle left stoday for
Helena, where second funeral SER
vice for Mrs. Carleton will be held.
One was held here yesterday. Mrs.
Pyle said before leaving that she did
not yet have sufficient evidence to
demand that the authorities reopen
the case.
