the State Federation of Labor was
one of the most able yet submit

action by the wage earners. Mr..
Fairgrieve worked in the mines
owned by Henry G.. Davis, demo-
cratic vice presidential nominee in
Mineral county, Maryland, but
does not give Mr.. Davis as much
credit as a friend of the worker

his election is assured.

MYSTERY STILL VERY DEEP
Nothing That Could Convince Him She
Took Any Part in Drug Store Rob-
bery-Business Men May Fer
ret Out Mystery.

Miller, S. d., Feb. 1.-The hearing
of Hattie Pitcher ended last Friday in
her discharge from custody, on the
charge of completely in drugging Will
bur Quirk and attempting to rob the
Collins drug store on January II. The
Justice held there was 10 evidence con-
Meeting her with this crime.
Charles Henshaw, proprietor of the
hotel where Miss Pitcher boarded,
swore yesterday afternoon that the
young lady was not in her room at his
house that night at l o'clock. though
she all along claims that she had been
shot there at 8 o'clock that evening,
drugged and left in her room till next
morning unconscious.
Ex-Judge Pussy. her attorney, made
q most pathetic plea for the fair pris-
oner, saying he was helping without
hope of fee, because she was an orphan
and penniless. Many Of Miss Pitchers
old friends stood by her to h last. A
number OF witnesses testified to her
good character. States Attorney j. H.
Cole made a determined showing dur
Ing the three days hearing. He was
ably assisted by Judge Briggs, but
about the same mystery surrounds the
s~hootingsand the holdup as before. The
efforts to- ferret out the perpetrators of
the two crimes will be pushed until
something Is known Of them.
Miss Pitcher was not put on the witness
stand. A number of witnesses testified to
her good character up to the time of her
arrest. Judge Pussy made a long, sym
pathetic plea for her. and many of her
old pioneer friends stood by her to the
last, believing in her innocence. Her at
torney declared he was fighting for her,
for friendship of the Pitcher family gen.
orally. without fear or reward, as the
girl is penniless and an orphan.
The girl has the sympathy of all, even
those who may believe her guilty, in that
she has been more slime against than
SHINING.
The business men and others will try
to have the mystery ferreted out If pos
sible.

AFTER KING
Dynamite Bomb Found in an Obscure
Corner of His Palace.

Dynamite Bomb Found in an Obscure
Corner of His Palace.
Madrid, Feb. 1.-What is believed to
nave been an attempt to destroy the
palace and kill King Alfonso and
members of the nobility came to light
when q soldier found a dynamite bomb
n an obscure corner of the palace
square yesterday.
Passing the royal residence, the
soldier noticed the bomb which had,
apparently been secreted under a
stone. He notified the major COM
handing the palace guard and the
bomb was conveyed to the guardhouse.
After soaking the bomb in water it was
found to contain enough dynamite to
wreck the entire palace.
Strict orders We're issued to the
secret police to find out how the bomb
had been placed where it was found.
All concerned were cautioned to say
nothing about the discovery. 1t is not
known what the police have learned
regarding the matter, but it is thought
that the persons concerned in this at
tempt to destroy the palace are those
who planned to have the king shot
while hunting Jour months ago.
The former attempt was only frus-
trated by one of the kings personal
escort, who shot a gamekeeper after
The latter had leveled his gun at King
Alfonso. At the time great mystery
was thrown around the affair, some Of
the ministers going SO far as to say
that the gamekeeper was accidentally
shot, and that there had been no at
tempt on the kings life, even after a
number of arrests had been made.
1t is said, also, that during King
Alfonso's levee las Saturday the po-
lice discovered an Internal machine
Underneath a bench near the doorway
Of the palace.
