TEMPTED TO TRADE
Wall Street and a Bull Market sepa-
rated Mrs. Hubbell-smith From
a Cool $4,000.
She Asserts That Cowan Pocketed
the Money and Has Him Ar
rested for Embezzlement.
Special to The Journal,

Milwaukee, Wis. Aug. S.--Mrs. Blanche
Hubbell-Smith, young, petite and bru-
nette, the daughter of the late Jay Hub
bell of Houghton, Mich, and the wife of
a former captain in the United States
army, is the plaintiff who has caused the
arrest in New York Of Joseph Cowan, a
young broker, who is charged with the
embezzlement Of funds amounting to
$55,525.
Mrs. Smith is well known in society
circles In this city, where she frequently
has visited and where she intends to
make her future home Inheriting for
tune upon the death of her father few
years ago, she was tempted by the al
lurements of Wall street and a bull mar
ket to invest a portion of her inheritance
in stocks on margins thru the firm of
Joseph Cowan & Co., the senior member
of which is the person under arrest.
Mrs. Smith did her first dealing with
the Baltimore branch. Her attornies, w.
D. Hooper of Milwaukee. and House,
Grasman & Vorhaus of New York, will
attempt to prove that Cowan, with whom
she afterward dealt directly, did not buy
any stocks for her, but simply pocketed
her money, leading her to believe she had
lost it in speculation.
Married Gypsy.
While camping near Pewaulxee lake re-
Gently, Kittie Reynolds, daughter Of Win
field Reynolds, became infatuated with
Alexander Williams, a young gypsy camp
ing near by. The band Of gipsies left for
Racine several days ago. Wednesday
night Williams returned to the Reynolds
camp and spirited Kittie away to Mil
waukee, where they were married Thurs
day morning.
The girls parents say she is only Il
years old, but Kittie swore her age was
18, and obtained a special dispensation
AS soon as Kittie reached Milwaukee the
police were notified and searched for the
couple. They were finally found in the
gypsy camp near Racine and taken into
custody. The girl told the police she die

SOUTH DAKOTA
MODERN "DIP" FOR CATTLE
Plant on the Carpenter Sanborn Place
Cost About 81 900.

PUKWANA s. D.-There has just been
completed on the Carpenter Sanborn A.,
00O-acre stock farm what may properly be
termed a "cattle dip" that for capacity,
durability, completeness and convenience
likely surpasses anything Of the kind in
the west.
The vat is 40 feet long, feet deep, 80
inches wide at the bottom and So inches
wide at the top. 1t is all walled with
stone, and the wall is covered with a
heavy coat of cement, as Is also the bot
tom, so there Is no leakage or waste Of the
dip fluid" At the approach of the dip
is a chute, arranged that it may also be
used for branding and vaccinating. The
exit is connected by two dripping pans"
16X24 with cement floor; and when the
cattle are put thru the drip, they stand
some twenty or thirty minutes on the pans
to drip off,; and the drippings run back
into the vat. ~
The capacity Of the vat Is $3.50 gallons.
A II horse power boiler is used for heat
Ing the drip preparation. On an average
it takes from fifteen to twenty seconds
for an animal to swim thru the vat; but
$50 head of medium sized cattle an hour
is about the working capacity The dip
complete cost about 81, 900. Messrs. Car
penter g. Sanborn have just finished dip
ping about 5000 head.

to open the state campaign about Sept.

test from then until election. The exact
date of opening is left to State Chairman
Jackson and ]. B. Sullivan, candidate for
governor. The tariff and trust issues will
be dominant, with some attention to I'M

bill. The silver issue will be laid aside
by general consent and seemingly gem

program.
1t is likely Mr. Sullivan will open the
campaign at Denison, the home of Secre-
tary Shaw, tho this is not fully settled
If he does, Sept. Il will be the date, as the
county convention Is to be held then.
State Chairman Jackson predicts an in
teresting campaign and a large cut ting
down of the republican vote. He figures
on keeping the republican plurality down
to 10000. He says the outlook for the
democrats in this state has not been so
good in ten years. He expects no diff

Congressman M. J. Wade will devote
months or six weeks to the campo ign.
He is enthusiastic on the tariff and trust
issues and spoke against the Aldrich bill

Some Of the more jealous democrats at
the conference predicted the defeat OF
Cummins. The more level-headed mem
bers of the party, however, contented
themselves with prediction of heavy re-

who predict Cumrnins' defeat say there
will be a large stay-at-home republican

Amerlcan Idols for China,

American enterprise has done much to
almost completely stamp out the manu-
facture Of heather idols and gods at Biz
mingham, England, which for generations
was noted for it's trade in this line. Dur
ing the past ten years the manufacture Of
idols in the English city has so fallen off
that now only small orders are received,
and they are handled by the little fac
tories. By reason of the decrease of this
particular industry in Birmingham, manu-
facturers on the continent are prof1ting
proportionately. That Christian America
is coming to the fore in producing these
images is shown by large contracts re-
Gently given to Philadelphia and New
York houses for the manufacture Of Chi
