POWDER IN CHIMNEY.

Had Nedwik Cooked His Own Supper
He Would Have Been Blown to
Atoms.
The apparently trivial act Of eat
ing a meal down town instead of pre-
pairing it for himself at his bachelor
home saved the life of Frank Newdik,
an inoffcnsiye German of Sioux Falls.
Newdik had been informed that a
mysterious enemy has camped on his
trail. He maintains bachelor quarters
in a dwelling which he erected for
himself He recently decided to en-
large his house, and to do this had to
demolish q chimney. He was unex-
pectedly called away from home be-
fore the chimney had been completely
torn down.
During his absence some unknown
person or persons visited the place.
When Newdik returned he had par
taken of a meal down town and with
out delay prepared to resume the work
of removing the chimney.
To his horror he discovered, stuffed
in the flue, oil-soaked rags, inside OF
which was a sufficient amount of gun
powder to wreck a large business
block. Had Newdik. upon his arrival
at the house, started a fire to cook
his frugal meal, as was his custom, he
and his dwelling would have been
blown to atoms and great damage done
to adjacent property.
Newdik was not aware that he had
an enemy in the world, and the at
tempt to destroy his life and property
is wrapped in mystery.

Faux Wins After All.

The South Dakota state fair proved
very satisfactory to Faux county. Its
exhibit was the best and secured first
prize by 81 points. The first reports
from the state fair grounds stated that
Faux county was placed in lower
position. This report was caused by
an error in casting up the points for
the different exhibits
When the first figures were given
out they had not been revised, and an
error existed which the judges and the
board win hasten to correct. The to-
