UNWORTHY OF HER LOVE
SUICIDE OF YOUNG MAN REVEALS
PATHETIC ROMANCE
Borrowed Money From Sweetheart
He Had Never Seen, Went on
"a Spree and Killed
Himself.
Special to The Globe

SIOUX FALLS, S. D, Feb. 15.-The
suicide Of Joseph Hail. Of Vermillion, has
revealed a love romance which is not
without its pathetic features. It has been
ascertained that Hall had a sweetheart
living in North Carolina. Hearing of his
death she wrote to Mayor Hanson ask
ing for full information concerning his
DEATH
In the letter she stated that herself
and Hall were to have been married this
spring. Their engagement resulted from
newspaper advertisement, neither ever
having seen the other. Hall, a short time
before his DEATH had written her that
he had $500 in the bank; that his life
had been insured for $4,000 payable to
her, and that an employer owed him
$500, but that he needed $25 to aid him
in collecting the sum by a lawsuit
The amount his North Carolina sweet
heart sent him by the first mail Since
then he had not written to her, and the
news Of his sudden death came as a sad
blow
The faithful North Carolina woman
may never know that with the S25 sent
by her Hall started on the carousal
which resulted in his committing suicide
by drinking carbolic acid after he had
gambled away the last cent of what re-
manned Of the money sent him by his
sweetheart.

Archbishop Ireland Makes an Eloquent Ap-

Its Suppression.
TINE TO LOOK TO LIVES and HOMES

posal of an amendment to the constitu-
ton
Speaking of America and approaching
closely to the question of anarchy, he
said:
''If anywhere it be a hideous crime to
seek to wreck civil society, it is so in a
manner unspeakable when civil society is
wrapped in the folds of the starry banner;
when civil society is named the American
republic
The applause had not died out before
he began to talk eloquently of time when
"the chief magistrate of the republic
was stricken to death by the act of vile
assassin" Then he referred to the mur-
ders within seven years, in Europe. of
president of the French republic, a prime
minister of Spain, an empress of Austria
and king of Italy, and continued:
1t is time that we look to our lives
and cur homes; to our most precious in
heritances and take measures to ward
from them the peril Of death. Anarchism
lives among US, few of our large cities
are without their clubs of maniacs It's
spirit threatens to watt it's blighting
breath over the whole land.'

WASHINGTON, Feb. 16-Members Of
the Mckinley Memorial association are
greatly disappointed at the lack of in
terest en- the part of the general public
so far as contributions are received. So
far only little more than $500 600 has
been reported to the national executive
committee. 1t is believed that the con-
tributions which have not been reported
will swell this sum to nearly $200,000 but
that amount is scarcely one-tenth of what
was expected.
A meeting of the national executive
committee will be held here Feb. 26, at
which will be discussed the necessary
change in plans. One of the members of
the committee said that undoubtedly the
project Of monument costing nearly $780,
eco would be changed, and the commit
tee would arrange to have one built
which would be paid for by the subscrip-
tions in sight.

CHICAGO, Ill, Feb. 15-Tn the name of
liberty itself, Archbishop Ireland of st.
Paul, demanded this evening the passage
of federal laws for the suppression of
anarchism, the enemy of liberty
Speaking at the monthly dinner of the
Merchantes' club, at Kinsleys, Archbishop
Ireland specified three kinds of Iegisla-
ton to this end, each of which he re-
garded as essential to the welfare of the
country. By the first anarchist immi-
grants must be excluded BY the sec
ond, the life of the chief executive must
be effectually protected. By the third,
the formation Of plots on American soil
against the lives of foreign rulers must
be prohibited, and in case congress has
no authority for such legislation the
archbishop saw his way forward, unhes-
itatingly.
Let the constitution be so amended
that this authority be allowed it beyond

Special to The Globe.
LONDON, Feb. 15.-Chile's proposal to
the Beers to settle in Chile has led to
some discussion in London as to the pos
sibility of a considerable migration of the
Burghers after the contest of the two
republics is complete. No doubt many Of
them will prefer to leave South Africa in
view of the altered political condition.
Emigration to Chile, however, is not
regarded as probable in view OF the fact
that the Beers are ranchmen rather than
farmers. Many of their friends here
think that if they decide to leave their
native land the best alternative would
be Texas or New Mexico.
Dutchmen thrive in the United States
and even attain to the presidency. The
Teutonic element in the North American
Union is one of it's best elements, and
has quickly absorbed the American
theory of government and social life.
Hence, say the advocates of a Boer immi-
grafton to the American southwest, the
Dutch Africander would there repeat the
history Of the Dutch who founded New
Amsterdam.
