grow up as total abstainers. then the drunkards
will die out with the next generation and on this
account the liquor interest is doing everything

TRIBUTE TO THE STRIKERS.
Judge Collier Commends Miners for
Their Peaceful Conduct.

Judge Collier Commends Miners for
Their Peaceful Conduct.
The hearing in the injunction case
against the striking Pennsylvania miners
came up before Judges Stowe and Collier
at Pittsburg Monday, and is perhaps one
OF the most important and interesting ever
held in Pennsylvania court. From the
testimony adduced and from the express
sion of the court it can safely be said that
there will be some surprises. That the in
junction will he materially modified there
can be no doubt, which on its face would
indicate victory for the strikers.
Judge Collier said in court that the
strike would go down in history as one of
the wonders of the country, remarkable
for the lack of disorder. for which the
strikers are commended and have the SYM
pathy of the court. He said: "This can
be no question as to what our duty is under
all the testimony, but am somewhat in
doubt as to whether or not the order should
be modified. We cannot determine this
without consultation"
Judge Stowe said Monday afternoon:
"This injunction will not justify the is
suing of an attachment against any
marchers who are not found in company
with the men named in the injunction.

where President Mckinley is spending his
vacation, says:
1t is learned here that there has been
considerable correspondence over the man
agement of the foreign department Of the
government. and report comes here that
Secretary Sherman, inspired by rumors of
the presidents displeasure at his lack of
diplomatic etiquette, in discussing matters
of the department, has written the pres

change.
The president has been in communica-
ton with Judge Day almost constantly
since his departure from Washington, but
it is not believed here that the assistant
secretary is any better informed as to Mr..
Sherman's intentions than any one else.
That there will be change in the state
department Is considered certain, but
Judge Day is not regarded as the likely
successor of Mr.. Sherman in any event.
Should Mr.. Sherman retire, Whitelaw

THE NEWS OF THE DAY
SOUTH DAKOTA HAPPENINGS IN
CONDENSED FORM.
Question Of Importance to South Da-
kotans L. Raised at BrittOn Which
Involves the Liquor Law Passed
Last Winter--Other Items.
Involves Liquor Law.

A very interesting question has arisen at
Bri;ton under the liquor law passed by the
legislature last winter. An application
was made in behalf OF the state and county
against the board of trustees Of the town
of Britton for an injunction restraining
them from issuing permit to one Davis
to sell Intoxicating liquor in the town UNI
til an election should be held and there
was vote in favor of the sale of liquor at
retail. No vote has been taken as pro-
vided in section % Of the act. Judge Wells
appeared for the board Of trustees and
raised the question that section % was in
violation of one OF the provisions
of the constitution. which re-
Quires that every bill shall embrace but
one subject. which shall be expressed in
its title. Judge Wells argument was to
the effect that section q provided for the
entire prohibition Of the liquor traffic, and
that the title of the act was not broad
enough 10 cover such a provision; that the
title of the bill was intended to cover a
license law, pure and simple, and that the
legislature could not, under such title,
introduce prohibtive provisions without
violating the constitution.

Excitement Over the Murder of the
Detricks Is Growing.

Excitement Over the Murder Of tho
Detricks Is Growing.
There were many detectives at work in
Bellefontaine, Ohio, Sunday on the rumors
regarding the double murder of David
DERRICK and his wife. While Tony Ford
and Lew Deerwester are under arrest for
the crime it is believed there are others
who know something about it. In connec-
ton with the rumors in the neighborhood,
one man attempted suicide on his wife's
grave because he was suspected and a
woman, after brooding over the horror,
took morphine with suicidal intent. Sat-
urday Mrs. Chas. Spellman a relative of
the Detricks, charged her father in law,
Mack Spellman, with criminal assault and
there was talk of lynching the father-in-
law as well as Ford and Deerwester, but
no violence is anticipated, although the
excitement is intense.
The developments of the past week have
been such that many are apprehensive Of
the result. The sensation now is the al
legged confession of Ford to Mrs. VIM. Els
worth, previous to his arrest, that he COM
mtted the double murder. Ford now de-
MES the confession.

Recommend Reduction,

The board Of pardons has recommended
that the fine Of $1,000 which was imposed
on Robert Doorman of Lyman County, be-
reduced to 500. Doorman was convicted
of cutting timber on state lands, and under
the statute the lightest penalty which can
be imposed is $1,000. The penalty was
placed at this figure to protect the state
from large corporations which would take
large amounts of timber, but when it was
applied TO the case OF Doormau it was a.
rather severe penalty, as he had only re-
moved IL few small bushes, and the only,
reason the ease was ever pushed against
him was on account of a neighborhood
row and spite work. or at least it is So
reported by those who know the paltic-,
ulars of the case.

SAVED GRANT FROM CAPTURE

Old St. Louis Negro Who Spoiled a
Confederate Scheme IL Dead.
Thomas Jefferson Saphington, an old
negro who saved Gen. Grant from capture
by the confederates, was buried Sunday
near Saphington, suburb of st. Louis.
In 1868 when Gen. Grant came back to
make short visit to his farm near that
city, Saphington. who was first lieutenant
of the Second Missouri militia, learned
that number of the most radical sympa-
thizers with the south had planned to cap
ture Grant and take him south a prisoner.
Saphington determined to thwart the
scheme. He hurried to st. Louis and met
Grant just as he was starting for his farm.
The result was disappointment to the men
who were lying in wait for him.
