How an Alleged "Shover OF the Queer
Escaped Punishment.

William katzenberger yesterday entered
acompaint before United States Commits
Goner Spriggs against Thomas Dillon for
passing upon him a counterfeit dollar
early Thursday morning. Dillon was al
ready in custody when the warrant was
applied for. The counterfeit was an ex-
eeedingly poor one, but seems to be too
light to be composed entirely of lead.
The hearing occurred at o'clock yester-
day afternoon and the defendant was dis
missed. as it was shown that he was so
drunk upon the night in question that he
could not have distinguished a counterfeit
from genuine dollar.

To Close the Sioux Falls Brewery.

Sioux FALLS, S. D., April l7.--Word
comes from Huron that committee
was appointed at the meeting of
the prohibitionists to close up the
Sioux Falls brewery and that 81, 900 was
placed at the disposal of the committee
for this purpose. The committee named
is r. X. Busby, of Parker: r. G.. Lang
ley, of Huron, and Il. t. Meredith, of
this city. Mr.. Meredith was not pres
ent at the meeting, knew nothing of
what had been done and had no COM
munication with those present with ref
erence to the matter He was inclined
to discredit the report until he
was shown the dispatch from
Huron. 1t is not likely that any
thing in this line will be attempted. In
1890 w. A. Wilkes began an action in
the cs~cuit court to declare the brew
cry nuisance and to have it abolished.
Judge Aikens decided that the brewery
was nuisance and ordered it's abate-
ment. An appeal was taken to the su.
preme court, where the case now is.
In case the decision is unfavorable to
the brewery an appeal will be taken to
the United States court. Many import
ant constitutional questions are in
volved and prohibitionists generally
have expressed willingness to await
the ultimate verdict OF the courts. The
property interests involved are great,
as the plant represents an investment
of Sf50,0O0 The institution now en-
ploys about fifty men.

foot level of the Deadwood-Terra mine
in a well timbered slope and spread SO
rapidly that it was with difficulty the
men and mules were hoisted to the
surface without loss of life. About
thirty of the men were asphyXiated'
but all recovered.
The level of the Deadwood-Terra
parallels the 200-foot level Of the Home
stake and highland mines and the hre
spread to them. All operations. in the
three mines were stopped and tre-
mendous effort is now being made to
get the fire under control. Owing to
the impossibility of anybody remaining
underground more than few minutes
at time on account of the smoke and
gas, very little has been accomplished,
and is feared that all the timbering in
the three mines will be destroyed.
In that case serious caves would oc-
cur in the mines and long time elapse
before the resumption of work. Two
of the mills were shut down and
the Others will suspend operations.

remains" was the arrogant reply ol
President McLouth when confronted
with the fact that most Of the students
of the Brookings college would not re
main at the school under the present
management, Many of the students
have already left and more will go Al
once unless there is aspeedy settlement
of the troubles.
Regent Shannon has displayed a won
derful talent for doing nothing since
his arrival at Brookings, and under hi.
treatment the case has grown worse
rather than better. At meeting IL

stated to Mr.. Shannon, who said tina
he did not know what to do and thai
he would announce later whether ol
not he would call meeting of tn,

prepared charges against several pro
fessors of very severe kind and chin
that they have plenty of proof to 9ab

something would have TO break soon.

LATEST SOCIETY FAD.
A New York Belle to Be Married in an Old
Gown,

New YORK. April l7.-An unmistak
ably new fad has been introduced in
this day and year of grace among New
the Bradley-Martins, who have just re-
turned from abroad for the purpose of
marrying the only daughtar of that
fashionable family TO the earl of Craven
in this city, to introduce new custom
for wedding occasions. The fad in
question is for the bride to wear an old,
soiled gown for her wedding dress
during the performance of the cere-
mony. This is startling innovation,
even for this society people, but Brad
ley-Martin has announced it to be cor
rect and of course it must go with
society at large-the 400-though it
may not go with Uncle Sans house.
The bradley Martins arrived here on
the Teutonie from England last week,
bringing with them the only daughter
of the house and seventy-three trunks
and packages, comprising the family
luggage. SO important arrival as she,
along with the list of luggage, natur.
ally led the custom house people to ex.
anime no end OF dutiable articles of
the costliest character, particularly as
they were aware of the approaching
happy event. Mr.. Bradley-M in
formed Deputy Collins that he had
brought nothing dutiable from Europe
except an oil painting of his son worth
about $4,000. He then rendered the
customs duty on the picture.
AS Deputy Collins expressed it, "you
could have knocked me down with a
feather" Recovering to some extent
Mr.. Collins asked: But where is your
daughters wedding tronssean?"
That" said Mr.. Bradley Martin,
has been left at our place up in Scot
land. My daughter will return there
TO reside after her marriage to the earl
of Craven. These trunks here contain
only our wearing apparel, all of which
has been in active service and therefore
is not dutiable.'
but where Is the wedding dress
the wedding gown?" gasped the deputy
surveyor, weilnigh dazed at the pros
pect of no dues worth mentioning COM
ing to the government after all the an.
ticipation Of the occasion.
"Oh, my, of course" replied Mr..
Bradiey- Martin. I'm one OF those
trunks, there. but II Is an old one and
in use. My daughter has worn it on
several occasions at receptions In Eu-
rope and it is soiled, so that no duty
can be charged on it,

A Novel Departure in Wells.

CHAMBERLAIN. $. D., April ia
novel departure in the way Of artesian
wells will soon be inaugurated in this
county. In the southern portion Of
the county are the Bijou Hills, small
mountains which cover considerable
territory, and are smooth as prairie on
the top On this plateau, $50 feet
above the level of the surrounding
prairie are number of farms. 1t is
proposed to sink an artesian well on
the top of these hills. \ well ut such a
altitude would furnish water for the
farmers on the top of the hills as well
as for many of those living on the
prairie in that vicinity.
The steamer, Last Chance, is now
making regular trips TO Oacoma, on the
west side Of the Missouri near Lower
Brule agency, and settlers who desire
to cross the river here can do 20 with
out delay. During the week the
steamer has been very busy
taking settlers across, many of the
| land seekers having brought with them
| large numbers OF cattle and horses,
| preparatory to at once commencing
1 farming. 1HOuSaffdS Oh acres WSSt vi
| the river which have never before
| yielded crop will this season produce
bountiful crops of all kinds.
Mrs. Sarah La CroiX, of Crow Creek
agency, is engaged in making an article
which will be among the curious things
exhibited at the worlds fair. 1t is a
mat made from jack and cottontail rab-
bits ears and tails, and will contain
hIndreds of pieces.
About all of the free government
land in Lyman county has been taken,
and the new settlers are now pouring
into Presho county, the second county
west Of the river. New settlers are
rapidly filing up the country for dis
tance of forty or fifty miles back from
the Missouri, and If the present rush
continues for many more months, the
newcomers viii be compelled TO go
some distance west in order 10 secure
good claims. But when 1t Is consid-
cred that there are more than 900, 900
ceres Of good land still unsettled be-
tween this city and the Black Hills it
would seem that there win be plenty
to satisfy all who go to that section OF
the state for several months yet At
the present rate of settlement, how
ever, it will tie but few years until
the free government land in this state
will be a thing Of the past,

token of the esteem in which he is held
by the people of this city, irrespective
OF party. Mr.. Miller responded with q
few appropriate remarks. Elder G.. w.
Freeman was then introduced by Mayor
Comfy, who spoke at considerabx
length.

An Erroneous impression.

Huron, S. D., April 1.-THE inn
preston has gone out over the state
that the result of the late municipal
election means that Huron will attempt
to repudiate her debts. The impression
is an erroneous one, and while {. IL.
Myers, who was reelected mayor, may
have his own ideas concerning the
settlement of the financial affairs of
the city, he does not propose to
repudiate any of its legal
indebtedness-ev every dollar that Huron
honestly owes will be paid Is rapidly
as possible. Holders of bonds or other
claims against the city. legitimately
issued, need have no fear as to the ulti-
mate result Huron spurns the impu-
tation of reputation flung at her by
jealous rivals. The day is not far dis
tant when Huron will prove TO the sat
isfaction of the entire northwest that
she stoops to no mean propositions or
dishonorable methods to free herself
from obligations legitimately incurred.

The Todd Divorce Case.

Sioux FALLS, S. d., April I'D. Il.
Powers, attorney for Mrs. w. r. Todd,
left for Yankton TO look up matters in
reference to the case. Copies of the
divorce papers have been received here
and apparently Todd makes out a
strong case. He swears that he knew
that Mrs. Todd was in st. Paul. but
that he did not know her address, al
though he tried in many ways to dis
cover it. +. f. Harriott, of Elk Point,
swears that he mailed to Mrs. Todd a
copy of the summons and complaint at
st. Paul. Todd says that from 1866,
the year of the marriage, until 1891,
the date of the separation, his wife
treated him in a very unseemly and
cruel manner. She possessed q yio-
lent and Jealous nature and grew
angry on the slightest provoca-
ton. Once she threw clock at his
head, and again she struck him with q
rocking chair. She called him hard.
unjust and even unprintable names and
that, too, in the presence of the chill
dren and of strangers. Often she
threatened to kill him and freely eX-
pressed regret that he was not dead.
Once he says she threatened to poison
him. Charles Hoborghly, printer,
formerly employed by Todd, who
boarded at the house, corroborates
Todd's testimony. Mrs. Todd declares
that she was never given notice of such
a suit, that her husband knew of her
whereabouts and insists that she will
If possible secure the annulment of the
decree.
