Thieves and Counterfeiters.

Centerville is having considerable eX-
element over the arrest of a gang of
thieves and counterfeiters who have made
headquarters there for some time. Samuel
Lindsay of Irene is the owner of clothing
store there. Last fall the store was closed.
The stock was left unprotected from
thieves, the only barrier being an ordinary
lock on the front door. MFR. Lindsay made
occasional visits to his store and soon be-
gan to miss few goods. A lit e detective
work resulted in the arrest of two boys,
who were convicted and sentenced to the
reform school. 1t was rumOred at the time
that some older persons could account for
some of the stolen goods.
The house of Louie Deedrick was
searched recently and also that of Sam
Ronenberger. A large part of the goods
were found in these houses; also quite a
quantity of counterfeit money, moulds, dies,
other material, and complete counter
feiters' outfit. Dollars, halves and quar-
ters in all stages of development were
found. Rosenberger is in custody, but
Deedrick has disappeared.
State Pharmacy Board.
The regular quarterly meeting of the
state board of pharmacy was held at
Huron. Those present were n. j. Blescr
of Milbank, president; c. c. Maxwell of
Arlington, James Lewis of Canton and
1. A. Keith of Lake Preston, secretary.
The following applicants for state certifi-
Gates were examined: ID. j. O'Brien of
Bridgewater, w. H. Stark of Salem, J. E.
Hanger of Bryant, J. f. Heisler of Huron.
The examinations have recently been
changed, and while they were heretofore
deemed very rigid, they are now much
more so, and before an applicant can Sc
cure certificate he must be thoroughly
competent to perform every duty arising
from the position of a pharmacist. The
next regular meeting of the board will be
held in Sioux Falls on June Is.

the nature of criticism of Secretary

illegal his recent order relative to
goods imported after April l, when ac'

the destruction of his home by the
flood, left with his wife and FIVE chill

his flatboat large bull. When within
a mile of the hills, the bull. which was
almost famished, in attempting to
browse on willow trees, tipped over
