man who cares for prosperity and sobri-
ETY. of the state should vote for repeal Of
the probibitory law" Better might
that paper have said: "Every man who
desires the prosperity Of the saloon in
South Dakota and is Indifferent whether
our citizens become drunkards, should
vote for the repeal of the prohibitory
law"
Seven years ago We went out Of part
nership with the saloon, and now an ef-
fort is being made to compel US to re-
enter that partnership, but We believe
that next Tuesday the voters OF this
state will so record their estimate of any
compromise with the liquor traffic, that
never again will an effort be made to
plant the legalized saloon within our
borders.
However important may be the issues
portant for the fathers Of South Dakota
to decide as is the question whether
~henceforth their IONS shall be exposed to
the alluring temptation Of the open sa-
loon.
All who sincerely desire the prosperl-
ty of the state, the happiness Of the
home, the welfare of the young men, the
prevalence of sobriety and industry, will
make a cross opposite the mo" before
last amendment IN the ballot.
"They e~nslave their children's chill
dren who make compromise with sin"
aid there can be no worse slavery than
that of bondage to the rum power,
whether an individual becomes abducted
to the drink habit or a citizen for a con-
sideration sells bis liberty to that most
powerful monopoly that ever rules its
abject slaves with q rod OF iron.
Little will it affect the happiness Of
the homes of our city and Of this county
whether are elected officials that hold
n or another opinion as to gold or sill
YER, but it does make u vast difference
| how they propose to deal with criminals,
and when officers have by the faithful
discharge Of duty incurred the enmity Of
law breakers, it would seem as if all citi-
zens who wish the law enforced, would
irrespective Of party preferences unite
to re-elect the men who have in the past
made it uncomfortable for those evil
doors that would like to carry on in our
midst a traffic, most menacing to the
safety Of our children.
Ii is q pretty safe rule for temperance
men to vote for such officers as saloon
nen do lot want.
Some people seem to feel that because
q man has held an Office once, that no
matter however we'll he may hsye per-
formed the duties OF that Office he ought
not to be reelected because forsooth he
! has received some remuneration for his
services and that another 10 entitled to
that salary, just as il the Office were for
the benefit OF the individual instead Of
the officer being hired by the people to
do work for them.
Those who are interested in the sale Of
intoxicants vote for officials that will
serve them, and they care not to what
political party an officer NAV belonv.

The Car will also don the collar, star
and jewels of the Order of st. Andrew,
valued at over 100 900 rubles. This order
is never worn save on day of coronation
and is adorned with five pink diamonds
and two aquamarines, one blue and the
other green, set in diamonds. The jewels
which the Czarina will wear are little in
ferior in value. The state coronet con-
tains stones of unequaled beauty. The
necklet worn with il consists of huge
single stones which hang in pendants.
The coronation robe is the most costly
ever beheld and the MASSES of precious
stones which her imperial majesty will
wear in addition will be of incredible
value.
They include the smaller insignia of the
st. Andrew order set with gems represent
ing fortune. These magnificent symbols
of authority will remain in the throneroom
during the night guarded by detachment
of grenadiers of the palace and several
gentlemen of the court.
This afternoon the Emperor and EN-
press left the Palace of Alexandrina and
took up their quarters in the Kremlin.
Their chief devotions were paid to-day in
the Cathedral of the Redeemer, small
chapel upon the gold court, surmounted
by twelve small gilded cupolas.
This private chapel of the palace con-
tains a miracle working image of the
Savior, and here before the golden image
the imperial couple perform their acts of
preparation for the morrow's sacred
ceremony.
All day long preparations have gone
forward for tomorrow, and many OF the
tribunes which were erected for the
triumphal entry have been removed, so
that more space can be given for the mass
ing of soldiers and grouping of invited
guests.
The decorations in the city have been
looked to and remodeled where necessary.
Preparations for illuminations have also
been made. Special masses have been
said at all the churches in Moscow to-day,
with prayers for blessings on the Emperor
and Empress upon their coronatio n.
The weather Throughout the DAY was
clear and bright. A rehearsal of the grand
gala performance. which Will be given at
the Grand Theater or opera-house of Mos
COW, was helo tonight.

ELIOT CALLED A cR0AKER.
Grand Army Men Sharply Answer the
Criticisms of the College
President

NEW YORK, N. Y, May 25.-A Journal
special from Boston says: President
Eliot's attack on the G.. A. R. has excited
widespread interest, and many answers
have been received here in the form of
newspaper rcorrespondence. Some of these
are given herewith:
1. n. Walker, commander-in-chie of the
G.. A. R., says from Indianapolis: Croak-
ers like Eliot may refuse to do justice to
our organization. but the time will come
when not only grateful people, but every
lover of liberty the whole earth round,
will stand uncovered when they contem-
plate the value of its services to the cause
of liberty and justice. It's deeds will live
when the memory of such men will be
buried in oblivion"
Major General o. o. Howard saws:
'Grand Army men, in action and senti-
ment, are better exponents of patriotism
than those who pronounce the defense of
the life and honor of the country lingo
ISM 1t is common now to condemn the
politicians and criticize Congress, but it is
new thing to accuse them of being afraid
of crippled and aged veterans. We wish
only to provide honestly for the old,
manned and helpless who freely offered
their country their lives in the time of the
countrys peril. Doubtless congressman
are afraid to withhold from them this
measure of Justice"

church, and the place has been visited by
thousands of curiosity-seekers to-day.
DR.. Meacham, who made an analysis of
the stains upon the various articles found
in the cellar, said that while he was not
prepared to state that the stains were
those caused by human blood, owing to
the fact that during the long period that
had elapsed since the perpetration of the
deed the blood corpuscIes had be-
come contracted. making it hard
matter TO distinguish it from the
blood of animals, such as horses, dogs,
etc. Nevertheless, he emphatically pro-
nounced the stains that he had examined
upon the lower door of the furnace and
upon the barrel found in the ce liar to be
undoubtedly blood stains. Beyond that
he was not prepared TO give further state
ment, except that be would operate with
a final test upon the articles, including the
smears on the paper.
The officers have no tidings Of the miss
ing preacher. The Governor of the State
has been asked to offer large reward for
his capture and it is expected that he will
do so to-day.

cnrsion of the season down the bay ves-
terday. Charles Dakin of this city, who
reached the city last night after escaping
from the barge Caledonia off Elizabeth,
n. j., brought the first news to New York.
Dakin said that Joe Harmon, a pugilist,
quarreled with man named Solisky when
the exeursionist were off Perth Amboy
and shot him in the abdomen. AS he fell
Solisky seized the revolver and, turning it
upon Harmon, shot him in the abdomen
in return. Both, Dakin said, wonld die.
Harmon was rowed ashore by five of mis-
companions and taken to a hospital in
Elizabethport. Then the FIVE men were
locked up. Both the wounded men are
middle-weight fighters and it is said that
Harmon knocked Solisky out about two
weeks ago.
The excursion continued on its way to
New York with Solisky on board, presum-
ably in dying condition.
The excursion was that of the Diamond
Pleasure Club and when the barges Gale
donia and Coxsaxie, towed by the tug
Genesta, left the foot of Market street yes
terday afternoon, after having taken
aboard excursionists at the foot of East
Eighteenth street and the foot of East
Sixty-second street, there were nearly 500
me n and women on board.

African Republic, it is positively stated the
Boer Government has reliable evidence
that the present Matabele war in Rhode
sia has been brought abo ut on purpose to
enable Great Britain to forward troops to
Buluwayo, and when all is ripe to attack
the young republic from four sides at
once. This has caused the Boer Govern
ment to warn its citizens to keep them
selves in readiness 10 take the field at
moments notice.
Until Cecil ]. Rhodes is removed from
South Africa the Beers maintain there cam
not be lasting peace. On the northern
and western boundaries of the South Afri-

move of the British troops. tits no secret
in Johannesburg that the Beers have their
spies in Cecil Rhodes camp and also
among the Matabeles.

JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA, May
25.-The people OF Natal have requested
the Government to see that the militia
and the regular troops are kept in readi-
ness to take the field against the Beers of
the Orange Free State. Transvaal Repub-
lie and the large numbers of Dutch in
Natal and Cape Colony who are in sym
pathy with the Beers of the Transyaal
and are ready TO join them against Great
Britain, should this latter nation invade
the South African Republic. The impress
sion prevails throughout Natal and Cape
Colony that Great Britain, in sending
fresh troops to South Africa, purposes con-
quering the Orange Free State and the
the South African Republic.

being a widower when he arrived in this
city is true.
While here the last time he spoke to an
intimate friend of love affair he had on
his hands at Salt Lake City, claiming that
young woman there was very much in
love with him, but he had not then made
up his mind as to whether he would marry
her or not.
He states that before his departure from
Salt Lake City the young lady in question
had sent her trunk to his house with the
information that she herself would follow.
No names were mentioned by Hermans,
and it is not known to whom she referred
His statements and the fact that his two
wives died under suspicious circumstances
leads to the belief in Minneapolis that the
crimes laid at his door were committed by
him.

contain the requisite number of steel but
tons for such an article of apparel and the
strong point is that they correspond ex-
actly with those on the blood-saturated
overals.
Miss Clausen wore FIVE or six artificial
teeth and farther examination of the
ashes taken from the furnace resulted in
the finding of two artificial teeth, with
metallic rivets similar to those worn by
the dead girl.
To-day the detectives found in q second
hand store Miss Clausen's trunk, which
the pastor claims to have sent to her by an
unknown expressman some weeks after
her disappearance. The trunk, it trans
pires, contains the wearing apparel of the
missing girl. Among the articles of cloth
ing was the dress in which Miss Clausen
had the photograph taken, now in the pos
session of the police. In addition to this
it now appears that Hermans solo the
trunk and clothing himself and that he
disposed of the girls guitar at the same
time. The date of this transaction was
December IL last, just two months and
eleven days after the girl disappeared.
Whether the bones found in excavating
the basement of the church include those
of Miss Samuelson, the other girl who it
would appear fell victim to the pastors
lust and bloodthirstiness, cannot yet be
determined. The search in the church
and surroundings is not by any means yet
concluded. and further discoveries can be
expected. 1t has been established that
Hermans was intimate with the Samuel
son girl, and that he performed a criminal
operation on her. A few days prior to her
disappearance, the pastor had a large box
made, and some of the officers hold the
theory that some of the bones found in the
church are too old to be those of person
only dead since January, and that the
preacher packed the remains in the box,
and either shipped it away or else took il
along with him when he left for Kansas
City on May 6.
1t has further developed that both girls
had intrusted to Hermans considerable
money for safe-keeping or investment.
Miss Clausen, it is known, gave him $500
very shortly before her disappearance, and
Miss Samuelson had also given him sew
eral sums of money while she was living
with him. Hermans drank heavily at
times and kept a stock of wines and
liquors at his study. The officers are keep
ing up the search in and around the
