AGENT SHOT HUSBAND.
south Dakota Widow Again Sues III.
nois Central Railway.

Katie Z. Bowen, the widow Of Frank
Bowen, until his death a prominent
resident of Ben Clare, town situated
on the Illinois Central east of Sioux
Falls, has, by her attorney, Joe Kirby
OF Sioux Falls, instituted suit in the
United States court in that city
against the Illinois Central Railroad
company for damages in the sum of
$4,000.
me husband of the plaintiff was
shot and killed Feb. 81 last by Henry
A. Steagald. agent of the Illinois Cen
trail Railroad company at Ben Claire.
Steagald was tried in the state circuit
court, but was acquitted on the ground
that he was mentally irresponsible.
He was afterwards sent to the state
hospital for the insane at Yankton.
Mrs. Bowen alleges in her complaint
that by reason fthe loss of her hus-
that by reason of the loss of her hus-
her for support that Steagald was of
dangerous and violent character,
subject to violent fits of anger and
with general disregard for the per-
sons and lives Of others, and was not a
man fitted to have charge Of the sta
ton house, but was wholly untitled
and incompetent to occupy such posi-
ton, all of which was at said time well
known to the defendant"
She further alleges that at the time
of the murder of her husband he en-
tered the station house in pursuit of
his business with the railroad com
pany, and that Steagald, while Bowen
was in the discharge of his legitimate
and lawful business with the company.
shot and killed him.
In addition to the $4,000, the plant
III asks that she be awarded the costs
and disbursements of the action.

Judge Mccoy has given his decision
In the salary case of the county Judge
OF Brown county, ]. H Hauser, and he
decides that so far as Hauser Is con-
cerned the law is unconstitutional, the
constitution providing that salaries
may not be increased or decreased

cial
Hauser applied to the county COM
missioners for an increase of salary
allowance on the ground that the pop
ulation of the county is 10000 or more.
The board refused to make an increase
and he then asked the circuit court
for mandamus to compel the COM
missicners TO pay the higher amount.
TO this the commissioners through
the states attorney, demurred on the
ground CT the unconstitutionaIity of
the law in this case. and the decision
of Judge Mccoy sustains the demurrer.
There are several other cases pending
in counties Of the state. this being the

MACAR0N| WHEAT GROWS IN FAVOR.
Claimed That Many Who Tried 1t Prefer It to ANY
IN Other Varieties and That Price Will Go Up

In view of the fact that for the first
time in the history of South Dakota
upwards of one million bushels of
Eaaaroas wheat was grown III the
state this year, the matter of inducing
the milling and elevator companies to
handle this grain rs of deep interest to
the farmers of this, as well as other
states OF the Northwest. The grain
yields SO well on the rich soil of South
Dakota that if market were secured
for it there is little doGbt that next
year would see greatly increased
acreage devoted to macaroni wheat.
very interesting and important
letter ON the macaloni wheat situation
has been received by Prof. Z. c. Chill
eott. agriculturist of the experiment
station of the South Dakota agricuI-
tufal college, from NJ A. Carleton,
cerealist OF the United States depart
meat of agriculture who this fall made
an official tour of the Northwest for
the purpose of studying agricultural
conditions in that part OF the country
The information contained in the let
ter will be of interest TO the farmers
of every state which is adapted TO the
production of macaroni wheat. Pref.
Carleton writes in part as follows
Il would like very much if you would
help US to make it understood among
The pioneer press. (Miller, Hand County, S.D.) 1893-190?, 1903-11-12

the farmers in the Dakotas that they
are not being nearly so badly treated
In the matter of prices for macaroni
wheat as they have imagined have
looked into the matter very thorough
ly recently, testing the prices of vari-
Gus wheats on an export basis, and |
find that the macaroni wheat never
has sold in Minneapolis and Duluth at
a price that would be more than about
10 cents on the outside below No. /
Northern, calculating prices on an ex-
port basis.
1t should be kept in mind always
that the macaroni wheat has no COM
parison with other wheats as to price.
1t is an entirely independent CROP
standing upon it's own merits as to
supply and demand for the price it may
bring. Hence if the ordinary wheat
goes up or 10 cents it does not fol.
low by any means that the price of
macaroni wheat should advance pro-
portionately.
THE public has yet to learn the
value of macaroni flour for bread.
Many who have tried it prefer it to or
binary flour. In the opinion of those
who have investigated the matter, if
it were placed on sale where other
fo"rs are sold, it would come at once
into general use"

SAD TRAGEDY IN BLACK HILLS
Albert Jensen. Young Rancher, Strikes Down His
Sweetheart and Then Cuts His Own Throat

After numbering the girl Jensen
wrote three letters, all of which were
to the effect that he was in love with
her and that she had promised to
marry him, but that she leased him,
all the evening and he became angry
and killed her. Jensen cut his throat
with razor, which was found lying
beside the bed. His sufferings must
have been intense, for he had walked
about the cabin, evidently for the
purpose of getting a shell for his gun
with which to put an end to his suffer
ings, as bloody tracks led UP to box
containing some empty shells. But
there was no evidence that shot was
fired. An empty shell was found In
his shotgun, but it is believed it was
placed there after he had cut his
throat.
The last time Jensen and his sweet
heart we're seen alive was on the even
ing before the day their bodies were
discovered. when they departed for the
purpose Of attending a dance in the
neighborhood.

RANGE CORN.
Cattle Belt Raises Forty Bushels an
Acre.

SeNs'S SS'e naiSCS F0Tty BUSHELS an
Acre.
Dan Bierwagon, a rancher from Les
lie. who has tried farming with stock
raising the past year, reports corn
which will go forty bushels to the acre.
and has brought in fine samples of that
grain, and with it potatoes which will
weigh two pounds apiece, and onions
which will weigh over pound each.
Mr.. Bierwagen was a former Doug
las county farmer, and Is raising as
good crops at Lesline, In Stanley coun-
ty, as he raised in Douglas county.
There has been rush of cattle to
the market from Pierre the past two
weeks, about 700 cars going out in
that time. 1t is estimated that the
shipments this year will be rs per cent
in excess of last year, which was the
heaviest shipping year up to that time.
Many Of the ranch owners are COM
PEELED to reduce their herds on account
OF the settlement of the range country,
and are shipping as close as possible
this year. There will be another ship
ment the first of the coming month
which will about close the work Of
this year.

young rancher living in the western
portion of the Black Hills and his
Sweetheart were the principals. AL
bert Jensen, the young rancher, killed

with her parents, departed about eight
cen months ago for their new home in

with the girl previous to their depar-
taTe from Lawrence county. The trag-
edy occurred in Jensen's cabin, near

mining engineer Of Keystone and Hill
City, now in charge of operations for

tory. Besides much mining and mill
ing, there is constantly under way a
large amount of prospecting and ex-

formed by natives, under the super
vision Of Americans and English. Mr..
Baldwin has daughter at Hill City
whom he is visiting.
