WOOD CHEAP FOR CASH

SIOUX FALLS WINS AND LOSES
Its Officials Are Declared Not In Con-
tempt of Court.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Nov %
Judge Garland in the contempt pro-
ceedings instituted by the old water
works company, as the Outgrowth of
the fight for municipal system Of
water-works in Sioux Falls, and in
which Mayor Burnside and other city
officers were the defendants, decided
that they were not guilty of Intentional
ly violating the terms of his decree in
the waterworks case.
He accordingly ordered that the con-
tempt proceedings be dismissed and
defendants discharged The Judge,
however, was emphatic in the declara-
ton that the attempt to complete the
municipal plant was a violation of his
decree, and that it must stand exactly
as it is until the United States cir
cult court of appeals decides the main
case, which is now pending before it,
The attorneys for the old water
WORKS company argued that the at
tempt to complete the municipal sys-
tenn was violation Of Judge Carland's
decision on July q last, which perpet-
ually enjoined the city from complet-
ing and operating the municipal sys-
tenn.
This decision contained a clause
that prohibited the city from complet-
ing and operating it's plant until said
city may lawfully do So" The whole
contempt proceedings were based upon
the legal definition of the words "un-
til said city may lawfully do So"
The city authorities inasmuch as the
decision last July by Judge Garland
held in substance that the bonds is
sued for the municipal plan carried the
bonded Indebtedness of the CITY be-
yond the constitutional limit, believed
that the raising of money for the COM
pletion of the system by special tax
alton would be no violation of the
terms of the permanent Injunction.

Girl Masquerades as Man Four Years


LOUISVILLE, KY, Nov. 29.-Garbed
in the clothes of man and putting a
black cigar, a woman later identified
as Miss Bride Helm, who says she has
masqueraded as a man for the past
four years, was arrested today by a
policeman who thought the apparent
man was a woman. Taken to the Jail
the young woman was forced to dis
card her borrowed clothing for that
furnished a woman by the strict laws
of propriety.
She left Jeffersonyille four years ago
and returned there a few weeks ago
where she was recognized in spite OF
her clothing. After leaving Jefferson
Vile some weeks ago, she came to
Louisville. She became houseboy in
a boarding house and two weeks ago
accepted a position as a plumber
helper. When arrested the young wo-
man had been out of work several
days. She promised the Jail matron
she would never wear the clothing OF
a man again.

Board Decides Upon Its Policy for 1904 Sales to
Take Place in Only Four. Counties.

The state lands board, composed of
the governor, state auditor and com
missioner Of schools and public lands,
met at Pierre and decided upon the
matter of sales and lease prices for
the coming year. All the lands which
will be offered for sale this year are iu
the counties of Sphinx, Beadle, Kings
bury and Brown.
After considering the matter of
leases it was decided to make no
change in prices west of the Missouri
river and to lease only for five-year
terms In that section. In the Missouri
valley counties east of the river the
list remains practically the same as
last year. In the northeastern portion
of the state slight advances were
made on lease prices, while in the
southeastern portion a decided ad-
vance was made.
In Marshall county there IS tract
of about $4,000 acres Of state land
which practically cuts that county
through the center. and the residents
are DESTROYS that It be disposed of and
placed on the tax list of the county.
