Heavy Pipe Shipments.

The movement of pipe continues to bs brisk from Bessemer and to all are being made every day.
 The movement of pig iron continues with the same activity that has char acterized this product for some time past and the iron yards are compsra- lively empty.
 The demand for the local brick is phenomenal. all the yards being as busy as possible and hardly able to keep up with the demand.
 Lumber and building materials con- tinue to arrive in great quantities, which, with an increased fall trafic due to the natural prosperity of the times, makes the railroad returns very gratifying.
 Altogether the indications point to a splendid fall and winter season. Within two weeks 1t is expected that there will not be single industry in the vicinity but what will be run ming full timc.

 Verneuille was in good form, and would have won his game easily had 1t not been for dumb playing at times and bad support Rain fell in torrents for ten minutes in the last half of the fourth and the remainder of the game was played on heavy grounds.
 Dr. H. T. Inge announced this after noon that tentative arrangements had been maia with the management of the Birmingham team of the Southern League, for a post series of games provided Birmingham wins the South err League pennant.

TWO CHILDREN KIDNAPPED.
Watertown Woman, Divorced, Is sus-
pected of the Crime.

Watertown, s. d., March 30-The dis
appearance of the two little Gibbs
children from the home of Mrs. ]. H.
Thorpe Of this city, has occasioned
quite surprise. Three years ago, Mrs.
Gibbs was given a decree of divorce
from her husband, Mr.. Gibbs. the de-
cree having been signed by the late
Judge Julian Bennett. At the time the
divorce was granted, there was moth
ing said as to the disposition Of the
two little children of the Gibbs, the
Judge not giving either party in the
action the custody of them.
That being the case. the two children
were placed in the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. w. B. Keeney, and at the time Of
their removal from this city to the
coast they children were given to the
care of Mrs. ]. H. Thorpe. Now while
Mrs. Thorpe was absent from her home,
a woman came ana wanted to take the
children out, giving an excuse that she
wanted to get their pictures taken.
Since then neither the children nor the
woman have been seen here, although
the trains were guarded.
1t Is rumored that dispatch has
been received here, stating that the
woman and children had arrived in
st. Paul, where she now lives, having
remarked. but the report cannot be
confirmed.
Now that she is out of the state, no
legal action can be taken to make her
return the children to this city or to
Give them up.

WAS NOT MURDERED.
Mysterious Disappearance of Dakota
Farmer Mystery No Longer.

Sioux Falls. S. D., April At has
now been ascertained that Chris Sven,
a farmer who mysteriously disappeared
in this city some weeks ago under cir
cumstances which some believed
pointed to murder is alive and we'll.
1t is reliably reported that recently, i'm
mediately prior to the departure of
Mrs. Sven for hardwood. la, to take
UP her permanent home with relatives
at that place. she received q letter from
her missing husband.
Sven wrote and mailed the letter at
Bergen, Norway. and it's receipt con-
firms the belief of many that he had
not been murdered, but would eventual
ly turn up at his old home in Norway.
That because of domestic difficulties
Sven quietly left Sioux Falls for his
old home in Europe cannot longer be
doubted. The recent arrest OF TWEEN
ty-four persons in this city at one
time was IN connection With the Gis-
appearance OF Sven, the arrests being
made on suspicion that the parties ar
rested had been implicated in or knew
something concerning his disaopea''-
ance.
