A PECULIAR WATCH CASE NOT
OF OPEN FACE.

Royalton Banner: Postofhce In
spector N. Noile was in the village
the fore part Of the week and drove
out to Upsala to Investigate an al
legged depreciation Of the mails. On
May 9th a watch valued at $85 was
mailed: at Royalton, the. same having
been repaired that day by Jeweler
Murfitt. 1t was not re: istered but
sent by ordinary mail by Tim Gritten
to the owner, Chas. Lindgren of
Upsala. 1t seems the watch never
reached it's destination, at least it
had not been delivered up to the time
complaint was made to the postal
authorities. It is claimed by two
reputable citizens of Upsala that the
watch did arrive and in good order as
it was seen hanging among other
watches in jewelers. window. These
claim they were in the jew elry store
and saw q watch which they recog-
nized as the missing timepiece.
During the temporary absence Of the
proprietor from the store they ex-
amined it more closely and found
they were not mistaken. These facts
were communicated to the department
and on them Noile was ordered to
make an investigation.
The suposition is. Of course, that
the watch reached Upsala all right
and that 1t was abstraoted from the
Office without the postmaster's know
ledge or with his connivance and left
at the jewelers.. A. Swedback, the
postmaster, was absent from home at
the time the watch is supposed to
have arrived at his Office, and his
deputy, a young lady, has had
charge of the Office.

TIE RUSH AT THE ROSEBUD
RESERVATION.


Long Prairie Leader: Clarence
Davis returned Saturday from his
trip to South Dakota, where he made
application to file on some of the
land of the great Rosebud Indian re.
servation just opened for settlement.
There are 2, 900 farms to be had Of 100
acres each and the land is some of the
best in South Dakota. All applications
must be in by July 2s at which time
the books are closed and the drawing
begins. There will be one hundred
drawings day until all the lands are
selected. If Clarence's name Ia drawn
early, he will be able to choose fine
farm in which case the trip will prove
to have been most profitable one.
he said that prominent banker of
Yankton told hin that If he was
within the first 800 chosen, he would
lend him $1,000 on the unimproved
land for improvements, so it can be
seen that the land is valuable. The
management of the drawings is In the
hands of the government so there will
be no doubt but what everybody will
have fair show. As soon as ones
name Is drawn, he has ten days to &C.
lect his land and file his homestead
entry. There were many Thousands Of
applicants and the daily papers re-
port some pretty rough times around
the land Offices. Such occasions are
always the opportunity for the gamb-
lers and other hard characters and the
Rosebud reservation is about the
liveliest spot In America at the pres
ent time.

and at meetings set apart for this pur- pose and to do everything in their power for the enlightment and intellec- tual advancement of their proletariat."
 The resolutions committee reported to the convention that it recommend the adoption of the measure with the exception of the clause following the first whereas" A socialist delegate arose and asked why that particular section should be expurgated. This opened the flood gates of oratcry and and the battle wds not over until an hour and fifteen minutes after the regular time for adjournment. By an overwhelming vote the delegates then passed the resolution as rec6In- mended by the committee and express cd their confidence in John Mitchell and Samuel GOmpers.
 Max Hayes, who championed the so- Cialistic doctrine, in a speech so drOus- ed the galleries that they Gheered for him for several minutes. This caused President GOmpers to threaten to clear the hall of all visitors if demOnstra- tiOns of the kind were repeated. The debate became warmer and some of the best speeches Of the session were made during it's course. Criminations and recriminauons flew thick and fast.
 I chell arose in the convention and stat ed that unless Delegate Victor Berger, of Milwaukee, was able to prove his statement that he CditchcID had -been @ traitor to the working man, ne must stand before the eyes of all present as a convicted liar. Then a motion was made to suspend the rules and allow President GCmpers and John Mitchell an opportunity to defend themselves.
 Trouble arose over Q printed slip dis tributed to sCme of the delegates which charged MT. Gompers and MT. Mitchell
 with dining with President Eliot, cf Harvard. The article in question said the place at which the meal was eaten
 was an unfair" house and that Pres
 ident Eliot was the man who called a
 "scab' a hero It bore the heading:
 Are They Traitors
 The reply Of President GOmpers was
 most bitter and impassioned and the feeling among the deCegates was tense
 He admitted attendance at the dinner but denied every inference drawn
 therefrom and declared that as long as he was connected with labor move ments, he would fight against politics
 being mixed with UniOnisn. MT Mitchell made quiet address but was accorded the closest attention. He
 was loudly applauded when he said that he defed any man to point to any . act of his which might be interpreted as against the Interests of the work ing u-6n.
 The fight between the Chicago Fed eration of Labor and the na-ional or : ganization, brought about by a ques- tion of trade autonomy was partially settled by permitting Delegate William ' Schardt, president of the Chicago Fed eratiOn of Labor. to have a seat and a i voice in the present convention ana ! directing President GOTpers to go ts 1 Chicago within thirty days and en- ] deaVOr to settle the dispute bctweeT

the two big organizations. If this could not be effected it was the sense of the convention that the Chicago body be permanently suspended from the American Federation of Labor.
 Another action of far reaching inn pprtance was that taken on the report of the special committee on the de- mands of the typographical union for an eight hour day. The convention voted to endorse the demand and pIedg- ed to aid the movement financially by levying an assessment on each of the million of members if sUlfa course should become necessary. The typo graphical union has set January, 1906, as the time when the eight hour day will be demanded by their organization.
 Niagara Falls, N. Y, and Fort Worth. Texas, invited the delegates to hold the next annual sessicn in the re- spective cities.
 The convention voted this morning unanimously in favor of the exclusion measures providing for the exclusion of Japanese and Ec.eans from the United States, and aIl insular posses sions on Mines similar to the exclusion of the Chinese. \ petition bearing the signatures of all union labor men will be presented to congress on this sub : ject.

New York, Nov. 21-Lazard & Freres have increased their gold engagements for export to S3,8OO.0OO. Of this amount s1,OOO,OOO will be shipped to Paris on a steamer. leaving tomorrow and the balance on Thursday. This exhausts the supply of gold bars at the assay office. Goldman, Sachs and company today engaged $5OO,OO0 gold coin for shipment to Paris tomorrow, making S2,3OO,OOO coin and bars to be shipped then
 The first engagement of gold coin announced since the payment last spring for the Panama canal was that of Goldman, Sachs and company to- day. Bankers say that with the ad- vance this afternoon in the rate for sterling exchange to 4S7, the market had reached a basis where it was easily profitable to export coin. It is believed in financial circles that considerably more gold coin would be exported now that the movement had begun.

A PACT 10 DIE


 Chicago, Nov. 21.-Suicide while tenn porarily insane over the loss of her betrothed was the verdict of the cor oner's jury today in the case of Ella Gesterling, whose dead body was found on Saturday in the girls apartments at the VendOme hotel
 The death of the young woman, ac- cording to the police theory, may have been the result of a suicide agree ment,' entered into by the dead girl and Charles A. Parker, of Cincinnati, the well known railroad official. Par ker died suddenly in Cincinnati under circumstances that might indicate that he had taken his own life. The n- quest in the case of Miss Geste7ling, however, failed to bring out any con firmation of the alleged pact.
 Miss Gesterling was formerly one of Mir. Parker's stenographers in Denver, and the friendship existing between them was strong enough to cause com ment. The result was the girls re- moval to Chicago. Correspondence be- tween Parker and the young woman was intercepted by. J. W. Parker, the twenty year old son of the railroad of ficial. In this us nner. it is said the young man learned that his father contemplated securing divorce in or der that he might marry Miss Gester- ling.
 Grief over this discovery and a feel ing of shame at his fathers entangle- ment were the cause it is believed. Of the sons suicide recently in St. Louis
