Few P.uper. in South Dakota.

That the prosperity which is South
Dakota's boast is not confined to any
one section Of the state or to favor
cd few among itp inhabitants Is shown
by the latest figures from the state
census bureau. giving statistics con
cerning the paupers OF the state. The
figures show that Of the 455.000 people
Of South Dakota only 24S are SUP
ported wholly at public expense. or
these 153 are inmates of poorhouses
and elghty-hve are supported outside
OF the poorhouses. In addition to
these there are 4S3 residents OF the
state who are partially supported by
public charity No other state In the
union, It is believed has SO small a
proportion OF its population supported
at public expense.-Aberdeen News.

Make This Their Whole Duty.
One OF the most interesting feat
ures Of Official life In st. Petersburg
Is the intricate system by which the
cars life is safeguarded. Since the
tragic death Of the Grand Duke Ser
gius the spy system has become more
complicated than ever. until now there
are whole regiments Of officials and
carefully picked men and women
whose duty it is to guard the car.
These ofAcials are scattered through
the ministry of the interior, the Sc
cret police and the ministry OF war.
The inner circle of the system is the
dreaded third section OF the secret
police-the men who are charged with
the guardianship of the cars person.
These men are highly educated, are
artists In disguise and possess extra
ordinary knowledge and power High
officials, nominally their superiors In
rank, dread the vicinity Of one of
these men. lest their most innocent
act--a call on a friend. journey for
health or pleasure--be construed into
a sinister act demanding explanation.

SLOT MACHINES.
They Were Used During the Time
and Reign of Rameses.

They Were Used During the Time
and Reign of Rameses.
A correspondent of the Boston Her
aid writes: "It is true there are few
things new under the sun. Air BEDS or
what we call pneumatic beds, We're
used by the Romans before the Chris
tian era. The most remarkable duplica-
ton of an old invention is the nickel,
in-the-slot machine. This was first
used during the time and reign of Ram
eses; in the eighteenth dynasty of
Egypt for the purpose of supplying
holy water, that which had been bless
ed by the priests, to the people who
desired it. The machine was urn shap-
ed, with a small cylinder inside,
valve at the bottom of the cylinder
with one at the top. These were oper-
ated by Il lever, which closed the bot
tom valve While opening that at the
top, when the cylinder would fill with
fixed amount of water. To obtain the
water a cup was placed at the outlet;
coin OF three drachmae, equal to about
10 CeHlS OF our money, was cropped
into the Slot on to a scale pan in the
end Of the lever. This opened the CYL
inder at the top and closed the lower
valve, allowing the coin to slide off, the
weight of water closing the top valve,
opening the lower one and allowing the
water to run into the cup. This is the
basis of all patented slot machines Of
the present time and dates back to
nearly 5000 B. c."

SCHOONER ALGERIA SINKS.
Storm at Cleveland Menace 20 Ship
ping Outside of Harbor.

ping OuLSlQe OF F1aFDOF#
Cleveland, o. May 9.-The schoon-
er Algeria sank about 2 miles off the
harbor of Cleveland Wednesday morn
ing and possibly three men lost their
lives.
The schooner Iron Queen is in a
sinking condition outside the break
water, and the crew of eight men was
taken off by the members of the life
saving crew.
The storm Tuesday night and early
Wednesday morning, with the heavy
sea it kicked up, was a menace to
shipping outside the harbor
The big steamers that had been tied
up there by the strike came inside the
breakwater, but the small schooners
could not get in.
Signals of distress came to the life
saving station, and Captain Motley,
Of the life saving crew, went out to
the Iron Queen, rescuing the eight
members of the crew with difficulty.
The life saving crew could not reach
the Algeria, which went down about
10 miles out.
Captain Motley thinks there were
at least three men on the Algeria,
but does not know whether that is
the actual number.

New York, May 9.-Plans were
made to have the funeral Wednesday
of Charles L. Spier, the Staten Island
business man who was shot In SO mys-
terious a manner, that the authorities
cannot determine whether he was muir
dered Or committed suicide.
The authorities desisted from an at
tempt to find the fatal bullet because
Mrs. Spier objected to the mutilation
of her husbands body. AS the au-
thorities differed as to whether the
bullet came from Mr.. Spier's own re-
volver, it was reported that District
Attorney Kenney, of Staten Island,
would refuse to allow the funeral to
proceed until complete autopsy had
been made. Mr.. Kenney said the bull
let that killed Mr.. Spier should be
found in order to determine whether
or not he was killed by his own re-
Volver. Mrs. Spier, widow Of the
dead man, said:
Il do not see any good of an au.
topsy to find the bullet that killed
him. To get it would require a great
deal of mutilation. DR.. Patterson,
Coroner Cahill and the assistant dis
trict attorney thought that it would
not be necessary. What would it
prove even if the bullet proved to be
32-caliber, and Mr. Spier's revolver?
am told that is very common size
