The scarcity of hotel accommoda-
tions in Aberdeen was illustrated in an
awkward manner for four persons re-
Gently. Two bridal couples arrived
from Sioux Falls and went at once
to a hote. Every room was taken
so they went to another and met with
a like fate. After trying all the hotels,
they finally went new apartment
house where, in response to their in
quiry for rooms. they were informed
that only one room was available, but
that it had two beds The quartet held
a hurried consultation and accepted
the room. The two couples left the
city the next morning without confid-
ing to anybody what they thought
about the deal or their impressions Of
the unsual condition in which they
found themselves.

TOaOUST OIL TRUST.
Texas Begins War ON Waters-PhTco
Concern.

Concern.
The long expected suit by the state
Of Texas against the Water-Pierce OIL
company was filed Thursday evening
In the Twenty-sixth district court by
Assistant Attorney General Lightfoot
The suit is for custer from the state
and cancellation OF permit to do busi-
ness in Texas for violation Of the anti
trust laws and for penalties aggregat-
ing $5,22S,400. The penalties cover
a period since 1900. the year in which
the company was readmitted to the
state.
The state alleges in its petition that
the Waters-Pierce OIL company has
been affiliated with and part of the
Standard Oil company since its or
ganization. The state also prays for
an injunction restraining the defend
ant company from doing business 9TH
er than an Interstate business within
the state Of Texas. The petition al
leges that the reorganization of the
Waters-Pierce Oil company in 1900 is
fraudulent and that the conduct of the
business of the company was in no
sense changed by or after the nomi-
inal reorganization. The state also in
cludes copies of the trust agreement
OF the several oil corporations and the
affidavit of H. c. Pierce denying and
swearing that the Waters-Pierce Oil
company was a member or party to a
trust.
The state alleges that the Standard
Oil company not only dominates the
Waters-Pierce Oil company but the
Corsicana Refining company at Cor
sicana and the Security Oil company.
of Beaumont, and also oil companies
and refineries of Texas.

AFTER A FOXY JOINTIST.
Gregory County Man Has Scheme for
Beating License System.

State Land Commissioner Bach pro-
poses to block the scheme Of Theodore
Muensch, Of Jamison, Neb., to secure
a cheap saloon license through the
use of South Dakota state land. jam
isOn is located on the Nebraska side
Of the state line bordering on Greg
ory county, and Muensch went onto
an adjoining school section in this
state and opened up his joint. The
department was notified that he was
a trespasser and an agent went down
to look the matter up. AS soon as
Muensch learned of this he secured a.
lease of the tract from the county
auditor Of Gregory county and the
same was sent to the department for
approval. This approval has been re-
fused and Muensch has been notified
that unless his saloon is at once re-
moved from the tract he will be pro-
ceeded against criminally. AS he has
paid license in Gregory county for
year he is up against proposition or
loss whatever move he makes in the
matter. but he will find it better to
heed the warning Of the department
than to attempt to make fight in
the case.

ings and Loan society against the city

Twelve deaths. the injuring of
scores Of other persons and $500, 600
damage to property were caused at
Jellico. Tenn, Friday, when carload
of dynamite standing on track near
the Southern railroad depot exploded
with report that was heard for twen-
ty miles. Buildings were shattered in
the business section of the town and
nearly every piece of glass within a
radius OF one mile of the scene was
broken. ..".
The dead: George Atkins. lineman
for the East Tennessee Telephone
company; John Cook, car Inspector;
Walter Rodgers, clerk for United Cold
Storage warehouse; John Gordon. col
ored; James Sharp, colored; James
Lovett, aged IL: Ida Raynor, aged 3
years: James Reynolds, John Hoch-
man, John Cook, Joseph Sellers.
There is a possibility that other bod
les may be recovered from the ruins.
Eighteen persons We're seriously in
jured, among them r. d. Baird, presi-
dent OF the National bank Of Jellico
and mayor of the city, who was cut in
the neck.
The freight car. belonging to the
Pennsylvania railway lines, contained
$50 boxes. or 10000 pounds, of high
explosives consigned to the Rand Pow
der company at Clearfeld. Tenn.
Two causes are assigned for the ex-
plosion. One is that three persons
were shooting at mark on the car,
and that a bullet entered the car,
causing the explosion. The other is
that while the car was standing on a
sidetrack a carload of pig iron was
switched against it and that the i'm
pact caused the explosion.

The South Dakota state fair last
week has been pronounced a success
by the press and by the thousands of
visitors who braved the rains to visit
it. New buildings gave room for larger
exhibits than ever before, and the fair
experts pronounced it in many ways
a promising rival of the larger and
older state fairs of the northwest
Next year. with the many new coun-
ties to be re!-'esented, and direct rail-
road communication with the Black
Hills, the fair will have one of the
largest and richest exclusive terrific
ries in the country to draw from. and.
its success is predicted accordingly.

MYSTERY NEVER SOLVED.
Echo of Disappearance of Former Da-
kotan In Fresno.


The appointment of John D. Avin
as administration of the estate of the
late Henry E. Christopher, of Fresno,
Cal, and formerly of Aberdeen and
Columbia, S. D., recalls the mystery
surrounding the disappearance Of Mr..
Christopher in Fresno eight years ago.
In former days he lived at Aberdeen,
acquired considerable property i'm
Brown county and became very well
known. About ten years ago he took
his family from Aberdeen and settled
in Fresno, Cal, where he proved sue
cessful and accumulated a great deal
of property. One day about eight years
ago he started out on a bicycle to get
some exercise. That was the last his
friends ever saw Of him. The idea of
suicide vas never entertained. as his
health was good, his finances in excel
lent shape and his family life ideal.
1t is generally believed that on his
way back from the ride he stopped in
Chinatown and was murdered for his
money, of which he had a consider
able on his person. Search was in
stituted, but nothing ever came of it.
Even the body was never found. Pro-
bate proceedings have been started
but recently in Fresno and Aberdeen.

MAN" FIRST, SAYS HEARST.
New Yorker Declares Parties Are of
Second Consideration.

William Randolph Hearst, in an ad-
dress before a large gathering at the
Orleans county IN. Y.) fair Saturday,
urged his hearers to vote for the
man and not for the party"
II venture to offer advice directly
TO the contrary to the advice of Sec
retary Shaw" said he. II urge every
Independent American citizen TO con-
slider the welfare of his country first
and of his party afterward.
This is a time of serious impor-
tance to the nation. Great questions
press upon us for solution. Serious
dangers threaten our American form
of government. Under such circum-
stances party name is of least impor-
tance, party platforms are of next i'm
portance, but most important of all
are candidates, who, in themselves,
represent the issues and whose charac-
ter and record are such that they can
carry out the will of the people and
resist the influence of powerful inter.
ests."
