SPRECKLEs AIDS THE UNEMPLOYED
Will Turn Over 5000 Acres to tho
Salvation Army for Raising
Sugar Hects.

a Francisco, Cal, May 24.-The ru-
raj homestead plan for the unemployed
as formulated by the Salvation Army
and which will be followed by the army
and the citizens committee, is almost
certain Of success. The plan in brief
Is to acquire certain a Of land
from the government, from the ndivid
ual Il otherwise. and to occupy these
lands and settle on them the poor and
what is NOW as the surplus popula-
ton of the state. Yesterday morning
Major Winchcll and ex-Mayor Ebert
had an interview with Claus Spreckels,
in the course of which that gentleman
said he felt sure the colonization plan!
was feasible. The great future of the
beet sugar industry made it possible for
colonists to be placed on beet sugar
land in a wholesale way. He said he
would buy all the sugar beets that
could be raised at 81 n ton. He cited
the case of a couple of Danes in the,
Salinas region, who last year netted
$1,000 from a crop of beets raised on 200
acres of land. Spreckles said he had
5000 acres of land suitable for the sugar
beet, which he would turn over to the
Salvation Army on almost any terms
it might desire. This LAND the army
could COLOMBO with the unemployed Of
the city. The proposition will undoubt-
eddy be accepted.

move District Attorneys :
Rebates on Drayagc
Considered.

Washington, May 25.-The United
States supreme court rendered a deci-
sion that the interstate commerce com
mission has no power to prescribe rates
on railroads.. h &c u also decided the
case of L. Il. Parsons, late district at
torney for northern Alabama. He was
removed from office in 1893, having been
appointed for fou ears in 1890. He
refused to recognize the power of tbs
president to remove him before the eX-
piration of his term and fought the case
through the various courts, all decisions
up to and including the supreme u
being against him. Today's decision
has been looked forward to with inter
est because of the effect on the removal
of ofiiceholders incident to a change or
administration. j. S. Wright of PITTS
burg. Pa, was granted rebate on pay
for drayage. The lower court held TINS
to be a violation of the provision OF the
interstate law forbiddinS diS-
elimination. The supreme court TO-DAY
rendered a decision affirming that or
the lower court.
The court dismissed the case Of Biyth
VS.. Hinckley, involving the estate OF
Millionaire Blyth of California, for want
of jurisdiction. The effect Is to leave
the property in the possession oil MIS-
Hickey, daughter of the millionaire.

A TYPICAL TEXAN TRAGEDY.

of Assassination by
N HTph

Dallas, Tex, May 26.-About 4 o'clock
Sunday morning a mob of about 500
white farmers from the counties of
Cass, Wood and Smith stormed the Jail
at Tyler, Smith county, and shot Will
lam Jones. a well known white man Of
Mineola, Wood county to death in his
cell. On last Tuesday night DIR. Riley
Stewart, a leading planter. ~eX-county
commissioner Of Cas- county, was
called out from his home near Linden,
the county seat of Cass, and killed by a
negro, who crushed his skull with a
club. Ellie Johnson, a negro, vas ar
rested on Wednesday morning. II
later In the day William Jones was TAX
en- into custody. The sheriff of Cass
county hurried them off to Smith coun-
ty Jail Wednesday night. as he did not
consider the prisoners would be safe in
Linden Jail. About 200 men made a
demonstration in front of Tyler jail
Wednesday night, but departed on a
eshow Of force. The mob Sunday morn
ing was not expected. and easily over
powered the officers. They spared the
negro who did the killing because he
had confessed all the facts of DR.. Stew
arts murder. He says Jones hired him
to Kill Stewart, that he n others might
be benefited by heavy life insurance.

CLAIMS 1T is AN OLD STORY
Milwaukee. Preiatc Explains IN AL
legged Decision From

Milwaukee,, May 26. Milwaukee
church d~ignitaiies do not place much
reliance in the statement that a recent
dispatch from the pope has been re-
ceived practically anglicizing the Ro-
man Catholics of this country. 1t is
said that the announcement Is only a
repetition of a decision promulgated ten
years ago. Mgr. Zeininger said the
pope had been been asked If in the same
territory several parishes could be es-
tablislled for people of different lang
lages, n each of them enjoy the same
independence, and he said they could as
often as the erection of such parishes
} IL account Of different languages seem
opportune to the bishop for the welfare
Of souls.
He also held that parents have the
right to G their children to any Ro-
man Catholic school they choose. In
Milwaukee,, for example, many families
Of German descent attend the cathedral,
the church Of Gesu. and, in fact, the
churches in all the English speaking
parishes.
Mgr. Zeininger added that it might be
well to trace the source of this piece of
news and discover why it was not given
out by the delegate a. Washington, in
stead of being sent out as a waif from
Chicago.

New York, May 22.-It leaked out on
the Brooklyn water front that the rush
of grain to South Africa is about to be
resumed. The British steamship kur-
distan, which sailed from the north
pier. took $4,000 bushels OF Wheat and
the British steamship Mount Sephar
commenced to load $4,000 bushels Of
wheat at the Iron elevators. 1t is said
for the next three months shipments
to the Cape and to east African points
will be as great as those of last year.
which We're unparalleled in the history
Of South Africa. At the same time
enormous quantities of mining and ag-
ricultural machinery and other Ameri-
car products will complete the cargoes.

Yankton, May 26.-There will be no
commencement exercises held by the
city schools of Yankton this year, never
before in the history of the city
never before in the history of the public
schools here has this ever occurred. The
cause is the changing of the high school
course from three years to four years,
this extends the work of the class which
should have graduated this June to an
other school year. Some important
changes in the corps of teachers for the

D.. and Miss Alice B. Mounsey of Trip,
S. D.. both graduates of the South Da-
kota normal school, have been engaged
for the sixth and fifth grades.
Miss Eta M. Morse of lake Geneva,
Wis, and Miss Jennie White of Miller,
S. D., have been engaged for the fourth
grade. this grade requiring four teach
ers next year.
Miss Elizabeth Bower, a Yankton girl,
who has been teaching in the Sioux City
schools for several years, has been
asked to come to Yankton and assume
charge Oh the third grade.
The teachers who have held the above
named positions for the past year and
who have resigned are:
Miss Cation of the third grade, will go
to Chicago n continue her studies in
the University of Chicago.
Miss East, of the fourth grade will go
to Terre Haute. Ind, to resume work
In the. normal school there.
Miss Stevens of the fifth grade will
take up the study of music.
a new feature has been added to the
city schools this year in forming an
athletic association comprising the high
school young men and those of the sew
enth and eighth grades. 1t is to be Il
permanent organization. The first an
nual field day will occur May 81, which
will consist of base ball. bicycle racing,
foot racing. broad and high jumping,
nigh kicking. hammer throwing and all
sports which usually form the college
field day exercises.
superintendent Vert is well satisfied
with the school year work which will
close June II. When the fall term opens
he expects the facilities of the schools
to be much improved. as there will be
additional eachers and a new school
house.
The attendance upon the schools next
fali is estimated will be nearly 900, an
increase of about 100 over present at
tendance. Work upon the new school
building will begin as soon as contract
Is awarded. The plans, made by w. L.
Dow of Sioux Falls, have been accepted.
The fankton Portland Cement works
have now opened full force. a regular
train runs to the works morning and
night. The daily output is estimated
at five carloads or 300 barrels.
The Yankton Heating and Plumbing
company has been awarded the contract
for the steam heating and plumbing of
the new Indian school at Santee agency,

SOUTH DAKOTA

1t Is told of a Florida farmer moi far
rom Tallahassee that he has devised ar
ingenious scheme by which he has rele-
gated the hoe and cotton sweep to d2s-
letude. The cotton planters. it is said.
know that geese will not touch the cot
:on plant, but like very much the tender
grass that is the bane of the cotton
patch. This farmer noticed that his
geese kept a part of his patch free from
grass, but wouldn't go near parts
IF it, n he found that they went only
where there was drinking water. He
nit upon the idea of e%quipping each
goose with a gourd, which he filled with
water and cut a slit in, SO that any n
DOSE might drink from this little
rough suspended from the neck of it's
elbow. Then he turned the geese loose
n his cotton field, and they cleared it
of all grass.
