United States Marshal Wade of Sioux
Falls camp up last evening and returned
today having in charge W. G. Beaman,
charged with having violated the United
States revenue laws. It is alleged that
a year or 80 ago. Madam Hawkins OF the
Lake Herman bagnio wanted an internal
revenue license to sell liquor and author
lied MI. Beaman as her attorney to Sc
cure the same. Instead Of procuring a
new one, it is alleged that he took an old
one, scratched out the former name and
inserted that of Madame Hawkins. She
did business under 1t for some time
when the fraud was discovered and she
was estopped from selling liquor by the
officers. Her complaint to recover the
s25 which she paid Mr.. Beaman for the
fraudulent license led to the apprehension
OF Mr.. Beaman by the United States
authorities. Along with him today, went
to Sioux Falls Madame Hawkins and
another inmate of the bagnio, and Sher-
If Fox, who will be needed as witnesses.
At the Chautauqua stockholders
meeting yesterday afternoon Messrs.
Carhart aud Uline reported progress in
soliciting aid to lift the association out
Of its indebtedness. They had secured
subscriptions and concessions from those
to whom the association was indebted,
to an amount over $500 and t bought it
could be easily I'M reased to $4,000. The
estimated receipts this year they thought
would reach within 800 of expenditures
which they placed at 5000; but the
larger receipts yesterday than expected
and the saving on Talmage's expense
will probably bring the association a
small amount ahead this year. The
receipts yesterday we're over $500. The
board OF directors were allowed greater
latitude in the matter Of making con-
tracts for the sale of rew lots. E. C..
Whalen has accepted the offer of the as.
ISOLATION to 60 out and sell stock. He
will be ready for duty in two or three
weeks. The directors were also empow-
cred to send out an advertising agent in
the spring.
Last evening after four o'clock was
a respondent time on the Chautauqua
grounds. Fully 1900 people were pre-
sent a%nxious)y awaiting the great
preacher, Talmage. But Talmage did
not come. The management wired to
every point where it was supposed he
might be heard Of; but no information
came concerning Mr.. Talmage. The
management was dumbfounded, the
people Disguised. There was nothing to
do but make the best of a bad situation,
The management stated plainly they
could make no apology as they knew of
no reason for his absence. They would
do the best they could under The cir
cumstances. The band, little Ada Hest
and DR.. Eugene May were called into
requisltion and until nearly six o'clock
gave the audience a very enjoyable pro-
gram DR.. May first gave a comical reci-
tation THE Widow Malone" and put his
hearers in the best of humor, then he de-
tailed toIthem some of the wonderful
beauties OF the Yosemite Valley, Callfor-
nia. This lecture was particularly fine,
instructive and entertaining. IE the
same time DR.. Talmage could not have
done better. The evening concert-a
combination Of all the talent on the
ground-was lengthy and of great merit
SO that on the whole, those who came to
hear Talmage and remained over got
their moneys worth. Among other
places telegrsphed to yesterday was Wa
SEGA, MINI, inquiring for Mr.. Talmage
and this morning Supt Hager received
the following answer which is the only
clue received as to Talmage's where
abouts: "Waseca, July 23.-Talmage
just wired me from Chicago. You can
reach him here the 24th."-H. G. Jen-
nings.
