Professor Hansen Of the South Dako-
tn Agricultural college is now In Eu-
rope looking for fruit which may be
cultivated on the wind swept prairies
of his home state. Some years ago
Professor Hansen made a similar trip
as a result of which he introduced the
drought proof bronze grass, which has
proved boon In many semiarid local.
ties. He also introduced number Of
varieties Of fruit which have seemed
well adapted to the northern states.
On this trip he will take special pains
to visit Siberia and secure samples OF
her hardest shade and fruit trees,
grasses and grains. The South Dakota
station with which Mr.. Hansen has
been connected has done the agrlcul-
tural interests Of the west and north
west an immense service by encourage
ing and assisting in the introduction OF
better methods as well as improved
and hardy varieties Of wheat and other
grain.

struction at Hazen. Every natural adj
vantage is in our favor, including Local

reason capital chose LIazen as the point

Hazen has an ore sampling and redue-

from investing in a similar project in

NEW YORK MURDER MYSTERY
Police Unable TO Fix Responsibility
for Death of Woman
Killed Friday.

NEW YORK. June s.-The identity of the
murderer of Mrs. Alice Klnnan. who was
struck down on the stoop of her home in
the borough of The Bronx last night, was
still a mystery to the police today.
Mrs. Kinnan lived with her mother, Mrs.
Louisa M Stanton, aged So, in an old and
decaying mansion. At o'clock last night
she was called to the door by an unknown
person. who without a word struck her,
fatal blow on the head with gas pipe.
The murderer then disappeared. but left
the gas pipe.
That jealousy or revenge may have been
the motive which prompted the assault was
suggested by the discovery that a con-
tractor named Clinchy died In Mrs. KIN
mans home while calling upon her two
weeks ago, and also that Mrs Kinnan had
employed lawyer to bring suit for divorce
from her husband, from whom she sep
arated eight years ago, The police today
were trying TO find a man who is said to
have been a frequent caller on Mrs. Kin
nan.
1t was said today that Clinchy had been
a visitor at Mrs. Kinnans home for FIVE
years against the wishes OF his family.
The mystery is deepened by the fact that
the whereabouts OF Mrs. Kinnans husband
lie unknown. After trying in vain for two
years TO find him and bring suit against
him. Mrs. Kinnan believed him to be dead
until three weeks ago. when no was re-
ported to be in Brooklyn. The search for
him was renewed by Mrs. Kinnan's lawyer,
but without result.
The police took up the search for him
today in the hops that he could give them
a clue.

Prospects seem to be favorable for a dis

o'clock this morning.
The case was given to the jury at n:@
Saturday morning, Two hours of the morn
ing session was taken up with closing arsu-
ments of the attorneys
In his address w. w. Dodge, Mrs. Hayes
attorney, appealed strongly to the sympa-
thles of the jury and spent considerable
time roasting the city police force and
especially Detective Maloney, who made
the arrest. He referred to the defendant
as this little Texas mother" and begged
the jury to send her back to her lisping
babe and not to prison
"She did not do any more to this dia-
mond that is missing than she did to any
other Of FIVE or six other gems she ex-
amned. They might as well have ac-
cused her OF stealing any OF all OF tho
others. She had no more intention OF
stealing this one than she did OF taking
the others. She did what any other woman
might have done while examining jewels
with the intention OF buying them
He referred TO Detective Maloneys
hands as Hamburg hams grasping her at
the throat"
"The trouble with some detectives" he
said, lis that they are always using the
muck rake. Everything they see creates
a suspicion in their minds"
Deputy County Attorney Fitch, In HIS
closing address, declared the greatest kind
ness the jury could do for Mrs. Hayes
would be to send her where she would he
brought TO realize the error Of her ways
and where the influences would be brought
to bear on her TO reform. He said she
should be convicted as a protection TO mer-
chants and TO honest people.

The supreme court has overruled
motion for new trial in the case in which
former Sheriff John Power sought to
recover from Douglas county something
over 5000 he paid out for the salaries OF
deputy sheriffs during the South Omaha
strike. He contended the county commits
sioners had agreed TO allow him to pay
salaries OF the deputies in excess of the
amount Of fees earned by his once promis-
ing to reimburse him. The supreme court
held that under the statute the commits
sioners have no right to allow salaries in
excess of the fees as the law strictly
limits the amount of salaries that can be
paid to the amount of fees earned. Mr..
Power sought a rehearing OF the case
which has just been denied him.
