CORNERING THE WATER.
Concerted Action by South Dakota
Farmers

ESTELLINE, S. D., May 21-Lake
Poinset, the largest lake in South Da-
kota, is six miles west of Estelline.
The high water in the curly eighties
raised its water at least fifteen feet
Since then it has been gradually lower
ing, until it is now at the same level
that it wasI prior to 1881. A dam on the
river below the inlet would turn the
river into the lake, which is at least
twelve feet lower. BY digging race a
distance of fifteen or twenty rods and
damming the river, an S-foot head can
be secured. That would raise the water
in Poinset fifteen feet and also fill
Lakes Albert, John, Sarah and Dry
lake, covering an area of at least
thirty-five square miles. Dams and
bitches could be constructed north and
west Of the lake at little expense,
whereby several thousand acres of
land now in crop could be irrigated
from Poinset. Meetings were held on
Saturday last at Estelline AMI Castle
wood, and committees appointed to
take charge of the matter and turn 'ss
much of the river as is not needed for
domestic purposes below into the lake.
Hamlin county has never had a fall
ure in crops, owing largely to the
moisture in the atmosphere from the
evaporation of the lakes, and in the
future proposes to keep all the water
in the county that the law will permit.

THE DIAMOND,

BALTIMORE, Sept. 9.-The race for
the National league pennant is still
full of possibilities, for at least three
of the contestants, and while the home
team has clear lead, it is by no
means out of the woods. The champi-
ons and Phillies have each fifteen
scheduled games to play, while the
Spiders have but ten. Baltimore's per-
centage is now Cos, Cleveland 627, and
Philadelphia sos. If both Baltimore
and Cleveland should lose all their re-
naming games and the Phillies won
all theirs, it would stand: Baltimore,
SIC; Cleveland, SIS; Philadelphia, 649.
If both Baltimore and Cleveland lose
five game, the percentage will be: Bal
timore, 656; Cleveland, SIT; but if
Cleveland wins all the remaining
games and Baltimore loses five, the
race will be a tie at Csc. If, upon the
other hand, Baltimore wins but five
games and Cleveland does the same
thing, then the score will stand: Bal
timore, 616; Cleveland, Sit.
To win the pennant in such an event,
Philadelphia would have to capture
twelve of her fifteen games. giving
her 60 Combinations of this kind
naming games, and they are interest
ing in that they show that even yet
there is at least a possible chance for
triangular contest toward the end
of the race.

Suddenly the blood left Miss Ayres'
face as suddenly as it had come and
left her as pale as death Itself. She
made an attempt to rise, wavered,
tried to catch herself on the pew in
front, and fell headlong into the aisle,
which startled everyone on that side
of the church. An usher at once
rushed to her assistance. He attempt
ed to raise her to her feet, but she had
stiffened until every muscle seemed
strained to the highest tension. Her
eyes were wide open, with fixed and
CLASSY stare, ard those around for a
moment feared that she had been a
victim Of & sudden attack Of heart
disease. She was carried out of the
audience room to the open air, where
it was thought she would at once re-
cover, but she was still as insensible as
when first picked UP. After few mo-
ments of vigorous work, she slowly be-
gan to revive The usual question of

When told of the circumstances
which had brought her where she was,
Miss Ayres said:
L have been taken that way before.
The doctors say it is pressure of blood
on the brain.''
After making this admission, Miss
Ayres suddenly relapsed into silence,
declaring that ''she felt all right now
and walked unaided out of church.
DR.. Loba, the pastor of the church,
when questioned about the occurrence.
said that after the service Miss Ayres
came to him to inform him that she
had been uninjured by her experience
and explained to him the cause of her
remarkable actions.

that Miss Ayres has for a long time

AS A HYPNOTIC.
HOW MUSIC AFFECTS MISS BESSIE
AYRES.
At the First Strains of Voluntary
on a Church Organ, She Goes Into
Hypnotic Trance.

CHICAGO, Sept. 9.-Church music
has a strange effect upon the sensi-
bilities of Miss Bessie Ayres, of Evans
ton.
During the Sunday services at the
First Congregational church in that
suburb, Miss Ayres was completely
hypnotized by the strains of the or
gan, and she finally went into a hyp-
motto trance. from which she was res
cusita!ted with great difficulty. Miss
Ayres was sitting in the very center
of the church and her peculiar actions
created the greatest excitement.
AS soon as the strains OF the organ
were heard, those sitting near Miss
Ayres noticed that she half rose in
her seat as if to change her position.
Then she seemed to think better Of it
and sat down again. In a rnoment
those in the same pew noticed that her
fingers were twitching nervously and
that her face had become so red as to
be nearly purple. A lady Sitting in
the pew behind asked Miss Ayres if
she could give her any assistance. She
turned to reply to the well-meant in
curry but no words came from her
lips. She seemed to be making dess-
perate struggle with some emotion,

Town of GridIey Suffers From the
Elements.

OTTAWA, Kan, Sept. 9.-Gridley,
town of 400 people on the Santa Fe
road. fifty miles southwest of here,
suffered the total destruction of many
of it's best buildings by last nights
storm. while hardly d structure in the
place escaped injury. bt is believed no
one was seriously hurt.
About 8. O'Clock yesterday, a storm
of wind and rain burst on the town
from the northwest The wind was
what was known as "a straight blow,
and it's mischief was mainly confined
to The unroofing of buildings. A down.
pour of rain Immediately followed, and
Amounted to a deluge, twelve inches of
water falling in an incredibly short
time
The rain completed the destruction
that had not been accomplished by the
wind. and in a few minutes every
stock of goods had been soaked and
the household possessions of most of
the inhabitants were in the same con-
dition.
Strange to say, with all the falling
roofs and walls and flying debris that
! broke windows far and near, not a
person of the town reported more than
the merest personal injury.
A great deal of damage is feared
in the contiguous country. One farm
house half a mile from town was COM
pletely destroyed and one inmate, sup
posed to be Mrs. Clara, Massie, was

RAISED A RACKET.
Kier Hardie Makes Another Bid For
Fame.

CHICAGO, Sept. 9.-Kier Hardfe. the
English labor leader. sadly disturbed
the usually sedaIte weekly meeting of
Methodist clergymen today by a red
hot socialistic speech and was greeted
with such storm of ministerial disap-
prevail that he was compelled to aban-
don the floor. Hardie had been invited
to address the preachers and, with
several. local socialists attending the
meeting, the Englishman proceeded to
air his views, loudly applauded by his
friends, and finally bitterly denounced
the execution of the Chicago anarchists,
and eulogized them as pioneers of a
new religion. The storm which greeted
the statement almost carried Hardfe
off his feet. Half a dozen preachers
bitterly denounced the sentiments eX-
pressed and the speaker was compelled
to sit down. The minister then pro-
ceeded with a scathing denunciation of
the speech and speaker but when quiet
was restored Mr. Hardie finished his
address, being frequently applauded.

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The question
whether the clubs of the city were

out the following:
"A club or corporation can no more
violate the law than an individual.
When evidence is secured against a
club that is violating the law by sell

proceeded against just as a saloon
keeper or his employees
IF an officer has evidence of VIOLA
ton in a club it is mis- duty to make

called to account. If any person has
evidence and applies for warrant

DURRANT's DEFENSE.
1t is a Virtual Admission of His
Guilt.

Guilt.
: SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. Am even
ing paper prints a sensational story
about the defense which will be offered
in the trial of Theodore Durrant for
the murder of Blance Lamont. The
following statement is credited to a
person connected with the defense:
The alfbi will be strong, but the de-
Tense has witnesses to show that Dur
rant not only did not commit the MUIR
der, but will indicate who did commit
it. There will be more than one i'm
plicated in the murder. Witnesses villa
testify that they saw the girl enter
the church on certain afternoon with
certain. man and that at that time a.
second man was in the church There
the defense will rest its inquiry IL
will not attempt to prove that these
parties did commit the murder. The
statements as to this are so direct
that they will leave no ground for the
prosecution to stand on, so far as Dur
rant is concerned
