Lead, S. D., Jan. 24.-.As a expect

order of the city school board relative
to the compulsory vaccination of
children. George Glover, who is the
son of Mrs. Mary Baker Eddy, the
noted Christian Scientist of Boston,
has commenced a test case which will.

ask the court to show cause why his
son shall not be permitted to enter the
city schools. The school board has

the order of the state board OF health.
There are n number of families of
Scientists i'll the city, with about
twenty children. The contestants in
the case will endeavor to show that
the present state law is directly
against religious liberty.
Pierre, S. d.. Jan. 24.--In response
to an inquiry from the state educa-
tional department., Attorney General
Pyle has submitted an opinion that
under the laws of this state the order
of the state board of health in regard
to compulsory vaccination of school
children cannot be enforced, except in
places where smallpox exists or is con
tagious in communities.

Fever Patients Torn Down.
Sioux Falls, S. D., Jan. 24.-The resi-
dents of the Sixth ward Of this city
are very much excited over the To-
eating of a pest house for scarlet fever
patients in their midst. Last week
scarlet fever broke out in the Nor
wegian Lutheran college and on Fri
day night one of the pupils died. SAT-
nrday there were six cases among the
students and these were removed to y
building in TIE north end of the city.
In the afternoon u bowling mob of
200 from the Sixth ward sur
rounded Mayor Lien and Health
Officer Subera, who were found
on the principal street of the
city, and for a time it looked as if
trouble would result. Finally a meet

day evening, which was attended by
some 200 Sixth warders and practice
ally every physician in the city. The
latter We're unanimous in telling the
excited %populace that there was no
danger, but they would not be salts
fed with anything short of the re-
moval of the patients and the tearing
down of the building in which they
had been placed. The members of the
city council are out today looking for
a suitable building in the outskirts.
There are 40 pupils at the school

Stocking supers,i,,on..


Notes and Queries: On the Welsh
border it used to be considered that
the surest precaution against witch.
craft was to wear the left stocking
wrongside out. This leads us to an.
other kind of superstition connected
with the harmless, necessary hose
their value. when properly worn or ar
ranged, as charms or as projections
against sickness or pain. Ii YOU will
only take the trouble when you go to
bed to cross your stockings and shoes
you will be quite sure from the grin
or cramp. Again, if you hang your
stockings crosswise at the foot of the
bed, with a pin stuck in them, you
need have no fear of nightmare: the
bag has a holy horror of cross and pin.
Wiseacres have also been heard to de,
clare that il you will always put your
left stocking and shoe on first you will
enjoy immunity from toothache. This,
however, the most superstitious Of
mortals will likely take leave to doubt.
Toothache, that "hell Of a disease Us
Burns calls it, is no 'respecter Of per-
sons, nor, assnredly, of stockings or
legs.

Milbank,s GOOD showing.

Milbank, s. d., Jan. 24.-The city
made a very substantial growth the
past year. Estimates Of a month ago
put improvements at $4,000. but a de-
tailed list will bring them up to $780,
coo. Among the new buildings are II
Touring mill, costing 100000; two
brick stores and a large number of
residences, many of them very fine.
The improvements in 1895 amounted
to 100000, and in 1897 to 100000. AS
showing the prosperity of the farmers
from this station $50 carloads of
wheat and -four, 46 ears of cattle
and hogs, 90 cars of other products,
besides u large lot of butter, eggs,
etc, in lots less than carloads. The
stations Of Big Stone, Corona, Twin
Brooks, Summit. Lea, Bolt, Revillo and
Albee. did as well in proportion. The
prospects for building the present

New York, Jan. 24.-Count Boni de
Casteliane and wife, nee Gould, arrived
today from France. They went to a
hotel. The count evidently did not
like the stories printed about his al
legged losses in speculation. He stig,
matted Deroady, editor of the III
CARO-, which first published the story,
as a liar, and declared that when he
goes back he will slap his face il he
does not retract. The count showed a
statement which said he would send
the editor. A translation follows:
There has been communicated to
me on board ship the calumny in the
Partisan papers which emanated from
the Figaro. You will at once print a
formal denial. l reserve the right OH
my return to tell you what, I think Of
your disloyal act"

tinued the count warmly. 81 never
played cards for money or gambled in
any other form. l did not lose money
in speculation. These stories are all
falsifications, as false as can be. There
is no truth in them at ALL"
When the question OF the relations
between himself and wife was touched
upon the count said: Our relations
are perfectly harmonious"
Then he smiled at his wife, as she
stood by his side, and she smiled at
him. There was seeming good feeling
in the smiles.

British Success Will Not

70 FIGHT ON AT ANY cos'
says South African Republics Arc
Capable of Successfully lte-
sisting Twice the Pres.
u British Force.

brussels, Jan. 24.-Dr. w. j. Leyds.
shc Transvaal envoy extraordinary
and minister plenipotentiary in Eu-
dictated the following important
statement just before leaving here OH
a diplomatic mission to Paris and
Berlin:
an view of the new and critical
phase into which the war is now en-
tering, l send to the American people
q few words on the subject of any
eventful proposals in regard to the
suspension of hostilities, n desire for
which appears to be gaining strength
on both sides of the Atlantic.
"Let me say at the outset that i am
as confident as ever of the ultimate
triumph of our cause. A temporary
success of the British arms would
merely have the effect of infusing
fresh vigor into our men and strength
cning their determination to hold out
at whatever cost.
while the actual fighting strength
of both forces is only now about equal.
England might even double her army
now in South Africa without crushing
our powers Of resistance.
But however resolved to continue
the struggle, we have ever been desir-
GUS 10 take duNdltdSc VI any toil
affairs which might leave the door
open to terms of honorable settle
ment.
81 am grateful to Mr.. Stead and that
considerable portion of the public,
both British and American, who are
urging the discontinuance of the war
on terms satisfactory to both belliger-
ents.
although not a signatory to the
peace conference, the Transvaal has
ever been willing to profit by that por-
ton of The Hague convention which
invites friendly interference on the
part of a neutral power. Moreover, in
dications have not been wanting since
the outbreak of hostilities that Presi-
dent Kruger would never bar the
door to a resumption of those negotia-
tons which were broken-if not
through the bad faith of the British
government, at least by an unfortnn-
ate misunderstanding which friendly
conference might at that time have
settled.
But it is not our place-especially
while England is hurrying fresh
troops to South Africa-to make the
first advances. Past events absolutely
preclude such a course and | am
equally confident of the future.
"Yet this does not alter the fact
that President Krueger's attitude is,
and will remain, one of conciliation,
and that he would be both ready and
DESTROYS to treat on any terms which
assured South African republics that
Independence so much insisted on i'll

period of the negotiations.

Berlin, Jan. PA dispatch received
here from Durham says that the Ger
mar bark Marie, loaded withssuiphur.
which was captured early in January
by the British cruiser Fearless and
taken to Port Elizabeth, has been I'm
conditionally released.
The release of the Marie has made
n most excellent impression here and
is interpreted us showing the earnest
desire of Great Britain to ~re-establish
friendly relations with Germany.
Nevertheless there is the highest III
thority for the statement that Ger
many has not abandoned the idea of
bringing about a clearer definition of
what constitutes contraband and the
rights of neutrals on the sea, either
through an international conference
or direct diplomatic negotiations be-
tween the cabinets.
A high official Of the foreign office,
discussing the matter said:
Germany must await, of course. the
result of the present negotiations with
England regarding neutrals. We are
not anxious to take the initiative in u
movement for n clearer definition of
contraband, but if necessary we shall
do SO.
United States Ambassador White,
when asked for a statement of the
American position, said:
II have no authority to express the
views of the government, since Ger
many has not yet approached the
United States with a request for a
cleaner definition of contraband and
the rights of neutrals, but I may say
our government has always been
ready to go into a conference on the
subject. Ever since the declaration of
Paris in 1856, the United States gov
eminent has stood for the same sea
rights as land rights, respecting pri-
yate property, holding it free under
any circumstances. which is going
further than any other nation.
During the peace conference at
The Hague ! made a desperate effort i'll
the same direction. Not only did 1
write a long letter to the president of
the conference, Baron de Staal, but I
also made a long speech on the ques-
ton before the conference. I found
Germany, Sweden and Holland with
the United States in the main, but
England was against us, and also
France and Russia, for we'll known
reasons"
The East African line is now cstab-
fishing the amount of damage it sus-
tanned by the seizure of the Bundles
rath. This will be at least 100000
marks.
