COLD WEEK.
Weather and Crop Report from
Cove rnment Station at
Huron.

Huron, May 1.-The following is the
weekly South Dakota weather report
by the government observer:
The weather, like that of the preced-
ing week, was on the whole remark
ably cool for the time in the season.
There was some high wind over parts
of the state, and there was less than the
usual amount of sunshine.
The mean temperature was consider
ably below the normal, the average
daily deficiency ranging from about six
to thilteen degrees the greatest de-
fciency was over the middle and north
ern portions Of the Missouri and
James River valleys. Some of the af-
ternoons were moderately warm, but
the nights were cold. Over the middle
and northern counties the temperature
fell to or below freezing nearly every
night, and elsewhere on several nights.
The highest temperature of the week,
IN degrees, occurred at Sioux Falls,
Minnehaha county, and the lowest, II
degrees at Oelrichs, Fall River county.
The precipitation, though slightly
above the normal in some places, aver
aged below the normal for the state.
In some southern counties the amounts
recorded were comparatively light.
There was fairly general rain and
some snow on Wednesday, and a gen
eral snow on Friday night and Satur
day. While the moisture from the
rain and snow was in most localities
acceptable, and on the whole bene.
fetal, the cold weather was unfavor-
able, and the freezing temper ature at
night retarded field work

SPRING SHOOTING
Effort VIII Again Be Made to
Improve the Game
Laws.

Sioux Falls, May / THE season for
duck hunting closed yesterday, and be-
ginning with today the feathered game
will be left In peace until next autumn
1t is authoritatively reported to be
the intention of the State Audubon so
ciety, which has its headquarters in
Sioux Falls, to again go before the leg
islature at its next session in January,
1909 with bill to absolutely prohibit
the spring shooting of geese and ducks
The object of the society will be to
put stop, if possible, to all shooting
of those wild fowl after the fall migra-
tion south. The birds have commenced
their preparation for mating even be-
fore they reach the Dakotas, on their
way north in the early spring, and no
matter how soon they are killed after
their arrival here, it is never soon
enough ot to interfere with their mat
ing and nest building for the season.
1t is said that for every bird shot dur
ing these months. out of the hard fly
ing focks emaciated from their long
flight, there are lost to sport not less
than half dozen plump birds for the
fall season.
Moreover, it is charged that no true
sportsman enjoys hunting them during
mating time, when they ale SO tame
that the killing of them becomes plain
slaughter, After they are paired, say
sportsmen, if one bird be killed the
-, , 30 Mill ,;r,la ,roypI apI no,na back
voluntarily into the jaws of death.
And in addition to all these reasons
advanced for the projected action of
the Audubon society there is the fur
ther argument that the noise of the
hunters guns scares further north
many birds that would settle and nest
here contentedly, thereby also losing a
Large number of them to the fall hunt
ing.

SCHOOL LAW.
Change by Which Board Mem
bership Will Be Re-
duced.

Sioux Falls Argus Leader; Wher
State superintendent Of Public lnstruc
tion Ustrud was in Sioux Falls Monday
Oh his way to Pierre, the Argus Leader
took advantage of his visit to ascertain
the true facts regarding the changes
which the last legislature made in the
school laws regarding boards of educa
tion.
1t was generally known that change
was made in the law, but it was
thought by many that the change was
in connection with the Galveston form
of government and would not be opera
tive unless the Galveston plan was
adopted. Mr.. Ustrud informs the Ar
gus Ledear that this is an incorrect
impression He says that the school
board clause was knocked out OF the
Galveston plan as adopted by the legis-
lature, but that an amendment to the
school law provides that after July /,
1907, the memberships of boards of edu-
cation like those of Sioux Falls, now
consisting of thirteen members will be
cat to five members, and that instead
of being elected by wards or districts,
the five members will be elected at
large. In other words, next year the
entire thirteen members Of the board
of education go out of office and i'll
their places will be elected the five
members who will constitute the board.
The members of the present board will
hold until the third Tuesday in June.
when the five man board will be elect
ed.
Mr.. Ustrud says that the changing
of the date for holding the school board
elections from April to June was for
two purposes First, it was thought
best to get the school election away
from the municipal election, and sec
ond, there has been considerable dis
cussion and friction on the different
boards regarding which, the old or the
new, had the right to select teachers
for the school year. With the election
held in June it will devolve upon the
old board to secure the teachers for the
following school year.

New Company in the Field
Against Milwaukee in
Waiworth.

Bangor, May 1.-The Minnesota,
Dakota 81 Pacific Railroad company is
building across the south part of Wal
worth county and is now throwing dirt
with several strong gangs OF men at
various points along their line. Three
new towns are being plated and town
lots are being put upon the market and
sold at rapid rate for good prices.
The new towns are Lowery, Alaska
and LeBeau ION the Missouri river),
Alaska seems to be the fist town to
boom, as many believe it will make a
good town on account of a good coun
try north and south of it that is al
ready well settled by thrifty and
prosperous class of farmers
The railroad company has sounded
the river at LeBeau and found rock
bottom at about 60 feet and the rock
crops out on the west side of the river
so there will be no doubt but what the
railroad will cross the river at this
point and parallel the Milwaukee in
their race to reach the Pacific coast.
Thomas A. Way, the right-ot way
and townsite agent of the railroad com
pany, was out in this county last week
with lot of men who are looking up
new locations for business in the new
towns, and he reports that all lines OF
business will be well represented in the
different towns; and that he expects
the steel rails to be laid to the river by
next September and that their road
will be ready to help move the big crop
that is now being put in by our Wal
worth county farmers.

WOMEN KILLED.
Run Down by Freight Train
While Riding on
Hand Car.

Deadwood, May 1.-The double Kill
ling Of two women. Mrs. Joseph Wilson
ana Mrs. f. G. Bittrick, the latter the
wife of the section foreman of the Bur
lington railroad, with headquarters at
tn j, little town of Marietta, situated
on the Billings branch of the Burling-
ton railroad about nine miles west OF
Edgemont near the Wyoming border, is
being investigated by a coroner's jury.
The two women were killed while
Oh the railroad track by an engine
drawing freight train. A pathetic
feature of the double tragedy is the
fact that Mrs. Wilson about two
months ago was deserted by her hCs-
band, who left her penniless and with
five small children to support, and the
further fact that she was about to
again become a mother.
Those who have unofficially investi-
gated the sad affair say that not the
slightest blame attaches to the engi-
neer, who did everything possible to
STOP his train and avert collision
wnen he discovered that the hand car
upon which the women were riding
was occupied by women instead of by
section men, who are accustomed to re-
move their hand-cars from the track to
permit the passage of passing trains.
Both of the unfortunate women re-
sided at Marietta. Desiring to make a
trip to Edgemont they took one o. the
hand cars which was used by the hus-
Dand OF Mrs. Bittrick in connection
with the performance of his duties and
stan ted for this place. When they had
travelled about nalf the distance be.
tween the towns they were overtaken
by No, 46, an eastbound freight train,
which collided with and demolished
the hand car and killed both women.
Mrs. Wilson, when sne saw the train
was upon them, attempted to Jump,
but was struck by one of the handles OF
the hand motive power Of the hand car.
The blow was of sufficient force to
crush ner skull She fell from the
hand car and rolled over into the ditch,
being dead before she struck the
ground.
Mrs Bittrick was overcome with
fright and. unable to contol herself,
fell helplessly backward from the hand
car upon the track Immediately in front
of the approaching train. The heavy
engine and a number of cars passed
over her, cutting off both legs and bad
ly mangling her body. When picked
up she was dead.
The engineer of the freight train
stated that he saw the hand-c ahead
of his train on the track, but at first il
was at such distance that he thought
it was occupied by section men, who
momentarily were expected to remove
the hand car from the track until the
train had passei.
He whistled several times to war;
the occupants of their danger and the
approach of his train, but those on tn,
hand-car appeared to pay no attention
whatever to tie warning whistle of thu
locomotive. When the train had an
preached close enough for the engineel
to discern that the occupants of tn,
hand-car were women he instantly at
tempted to stop his train.
But the momentum of the heavil,
loaded cars behind him was so grea
that it was beyond his control and th
b avy engine crashed into the hand ca
with its living freight.

The trial of Robert Goucher,
charged with selling liquor to an In
dian at Spalding, is being conduct
ed this afternoon before Justice of
