s~ationai Case Must Stand Trial.
Sioux Falls. s. D.. May 5.-Now that
Rev. Charles A. Lyons. who created a
sensation by disappearing from Sioux
rested In st. Paul n brought back to
this city, he will discover that his
punishment for deceiving a young
woman Of Sioux Falls will be swift and
sure. When taken before Judge Waits
the prisoner waived his preliminary
hearing and was held for the next term
Of state circuit court.
His arrest was due largely to the
personal efforts Of the woman he had
Deceived. When Lyons reached Sioux
Falls In custody OF an officer, Mrs,
Lyons and q friend were posted at the
1epOt where they could see without be-
Ing seen. and she readily identified the
prisoner as the man who had deceived
her.
Lyons first appeared in Sioux Falls a
year ago this month. and for a time
made his home with Rev. E. A. Orr.
pastor of the local Christian church.
Lyons exhibited credentials which were
apparently all right and which were
satisfactory to the clergymen Of the
ctty. For a time he occupied the pulpit
Of the Presbyterian church. and also
II the Baptist church.
Last summer he met Miss Emma Per-
Wis. stenographer in the Sioux Falls
Savings bank, the leading financial In
stitution Of h city. He at once COM
menced to pay our to the young lady.
and on October s. last, this eliminated
IN their marriage. They lived happily
together and Mrs. Lyons was nearly
Frustrated when on December = her
husband mystertously disappeared.
It was not until within the last few
weeks that she became satisfied that
she had been deserted md that the
villain In whom h had repoeed the
utmost confidence was still alive. Then
she determined to have Lyons brought
to Justice. and opened q correspondence
with every book bindery In the country.
During her investigations abe alap
AocertAined that Lyons had been mar
tied three tim1r before he married her
ana that two Of these wives were still
alive.

W. q. Hall at Rest.

w. G. Hall died at his home in Cor
Wallis Friday after long illness.
Consumption was the cause of death.
He had suffered for years with the
dread malady, but only within the
past year had been confined to the
house. His death was not unexpected
as he had declined rapidly for several
weeks.
Mr.. Hall is survived by his wife, a
daughter, Miss Maude and a son
Mark, who live at Corvallis. There
is another son Claude, whom they
were unable to locate.
The funeral was held Saturday af-
ternoon from the Christian church.

of the deceased and impaired comfort
to those who sorrowed for his loss.

a gaping hole in its side is rather a
paradox. The aperture is about six
feet from the ground and about foot
square. In making his escape John

for, on account of the thickness Of the
wall, it would have been difficult for
him to catch himself.
Commencing two weeks ago with a

now face two serious charges, one for
arson in burning the city jail and also
for breaking Jail. These counts entitle

DEMOCRATIC NOr1INEES CHOSEN
ON FIRST BALLOT,
BRYAN WILL SUPPORT The TICKET
Parker Sends Alarming Telegram De-
Claring for Gold Standard
hearst's Loyalty.

st. Louis. July 9.-Chief Judge AL
ton B. Parker of the New York state
court Of appeals was nominated at
about fifteen minutes to O'Clock this
morning for president of the United
States by the Democratic national
convention. Only one roll call ensued,
and so decisive was the result of that
one that contrary states began to call
for recog milton and the ballot finally
resulted in unanimous vote for the
New York state man. The scene was
dramatic in the extreme.
Darkness had witnessed the gather
ing OF the democratic hosts, while
broad daylight, the sun paling the
electric lights, witnessed the close.
The convention was in session from
8 O'Clock last night until nearly six in
the morning. In that time eight
names were presented to the conven-
ton. Nominating and seconding
speeches innumerable were made,
and as dawn approached it became
necessary to limit the seconding
speeches to four minutes each. An
exception was made in the case of
William J. Bryan who, in one of the
most dramatic situations ever wit
messed in a political gathering. ad-
dressed the convention and concluded
by seconding the nomination of Sena-
tor Francis NJ. Cockrell, the "favorite
son" candidate from Missouri.
Davis for Second Place.
Ex-senator Henry G. Davis of West
Virginia was nominated unanimously
for vice president this morning at l
O'Clock, after one of the stormiest ses-
sions OF the democratic convention.
Before the result of the first ballot
was announced the vote had stood:
Davis, GAS; Williams los; Turner,
100; Harris So. Various states
began by changing their votes 20

make the nomination unanimous.
which was carried.
The convention then quickly wound
up it's business and at 1877 a. m., ad-
journed sine die.
Parker's Alarming Telegram.
When the convention reconvened
this afternoon the startling announce
ment was whispered around in differ
ent circles that a sensation was to be
sprung in the convention at the elev-
enth hour.
It developed that Judge Parker had
telegraphed his views on finance, in
which he declared for the gold stand
ard and suggested that the conyen-
tion should know this fact, that it
might be given an opportunity to Sc
lect some one else for the party's NOM
inee should his views not be in accor-
dance with those of the delegates.

THE LOCAL CONDITIONS.

Observer Hayden of the local sta
ton, stated this morning that very un
usual conditions had been recorded
here within the past twenty-four hours
or rather within the past thirty-six
hours. Since midnight of Saturday
night Al of an inch of precipitation
has been recorded, which brings the
average amount up to 10 of an inch
above the normal. Previous to Sat-
urday the record of averages was SO
of an inch below normal While the
gain over the normal amount is small.
yet it is consoling to know that the
rainfall in this section for the present.
season is up to the normal in quantity.
and one-tenth of an inch to the good.
Since five o'clock last evening there
has been IL of an inch of precipitation
recorded, and the predictions for the
net twenty-four hours are for rain
or snow, with colder weather. There
fore, it appears that the ranchers and
stockmen have reason to congratulate
themselves today on the prospects Of
the coming season.
The wind has been stronger In the
past day and a half than is generally
supposed. At 10:45 this forenoon 1t
attained a speed-the maximum for
the day-of forty miles an hour.
A very unusual condition of the
temperature is also noted, one which
Observer Hayden states does not oc-
cur oftener than once q year here.
Between s a. m. and p. m. yesterday.
the highest temperature was 4S above,
but between o'clock last night and
5 this morning the thermometer once
registered so above. The mean tenn
perature for the day was forty degrees
above zero.
The above will be good news to the
ranchers along the Humboldt below
Winnemucca. II practically guaran-
tees the hay crop to be in excess of
that of last year, and will be a bene-
fit in MANY WAYS.

DEATH Of LITTLE
ANNA BUSCH
Occurred SuCdenIy at Stock
ton, California, As She Was
on Her Way to School

The Silver State Is in receipt OF . let
ter from H. Busch. well known In this
city, who now resides in Stockton. Cal.
enclosing the following clipping from
the Stockton Record, presumably Of
last Friday. although the date is net
given:
Little Anna Busch. the daughter OF
H. Busch, who resides at ia North
Aurora street. dropped dead while rid
ing into the school yard Of the Free
mont school on her bicycle this aftei-
noon. Death was due to heart failure.
THE little girls case was . most Pc
culiar one. For years It has been
known that her heart was on the right
side instead Of the left. She suffered
from heart disease very frequently and
her father spent hundreds OF dollars
attempting to cure her. The best ply
sicians in the land were bafSied by her
case
THE girls parents were always very
careful not to let her become excited.
and great care was also exercised by
her teachers. This afternoon at
o'clock little Anna rode to school on
her wheel and was just turning into
the gate when she fell backward. strik-
ing upon her head.
"She was picked up by Principal
Grubbs and conveyed to her home in
buggy. Drs. Harkness. Oliver and
Young were summoned hastily. but all
to no avail. Her heart was very weak
otr1 hn <t1~Hx
from the exertion OF pedalling her
wheel.
The sad and peculiar accident caus-
ed a great commotion among her play
mates. many Of whom saw her fall.
The little girl was q member Of tho
Fremont fifth grade. Principal Grubbs
states that everything possible was
done to resuscitate her."
The little girls age was about II
years. The friends of the family liv-
ing here knew, as stated in the clip
ping above, that she was threatened
by heart disease, and the announce
ment of her death is therefore hardly
a surprise; this makes the news none
the less sad. however. and all will
unite in sincere sympathy for the be-
reaved parents.
Nothing has been left undone In
seeking permanent relief for the child.
A few years ago Mr.. and Mrs. Busch
took her to Chicago. where she at
tracted great interest among the most
celebrated surgeons Of the United
States. who were powerless. however.
to give her permanent relief. and who
predicted. as the family physician here
had stated. that her death would occur
in the manner In which 1t really did.
