Lumber Trust Beaten.

The price of lumber was raised away above the price set by the lumber trust in police court this morning. for Henry Foster a negro. Henry want ed to make some improvements upon the house in which he was living. The improvements contemplated were not very extensive, so the negro did not have plans for then; drawn by an ar chitect nor did he let the contract to some builder.
 Instead he went on Parkman street where J. G. Norris. Is erecting q mag niticent residence for E. C. Jones
 Around the lot there is stacked lot of lumber and in passing Henry de- cided that the cheapest way for him to make the improvements upon his own residence would be to purloin some of the lumber that was to be used in completing MT. Jones's residence. But today the negro believes that he went about making these contemplated ir"- provements in the most expensive way.
 From one of the piles of lumber the negro took blanks that are estimated .e have heen worth one dollar. The theft of the blanks were discovered by the contractor, and a warrant charg- ing Henry Foster with larceny was sworn out and he was arrested. He was tried this morning. When the evidence which had been introduced was heard, Mayor Atkins irADosed d fine of $25 or fifty days at labor upon the streets against the lumber thief.

One Sad Refrain.
But there is one sad note and only
one in the secretary's report. While
he says the farmer will have more to
spend and more to invest than he ever
before had out of one years work,
he acknowledged that his figures and
estimates were made just before those
chaps in New York, who toll not and
neither do they spin, served their joke
upon the country. If there proves
something wrong, therefore, with the
reports prediction regarding the
amount of money the farmers will
realize out of the years business it
must not be attributed to the secre-
tary. nor to the farmers, nor to any
one but those self same New Workers,
who, now that their game is tenn
porarily suspended, are seeking to fas-
ten the responsibility for whatever
has happened or may happen upon
the president of the United States.

MISS LILLY KELLY SLAIN BY SU|TOR;
GIRL SAID To Be FROM MANKATO
HER HEAD WAS CRUSHED A. F. OWEN is HELD
FOR A HEARING.
She Was Homesteader and Lived Prairie House About Twelve
Miles South of Fort Pierre; Gaiety Was Followed By
a Most Brutal and Horrible Crime.

Pierre, S. D., Dec "a CHASTITY
murder was committed early yesterday
morning in little prairie house about
twelve miles south of Fort Pierre, the
victim being Miss Lilly Kelly a home
steader who came here from Mankato
MINI. A young man of that vicinity
A. F. Owen, has been arrested for
the crime, and is being held for a
hearing.
1t appears that a small party of
young people gathered at the home of
Miss Kelly Sunday evening and re-
manned until after midnight, among
them being her brother. Yesterday
morning the brother went to the home
of his sister and found her on the
floor of the house with her skull
crushed.
Owen, had been a sutton for the
young woman, who did not fancy
him, is said to have threatened her
life, and Sunday when she went driv-
ing with rival, it is alleged again
threatened what he would do. 1t is
reported that he was absent from the
place he worked all Sunday night, re-
turning early yesterday morning, and
that he cannot explain where he was
for the night.
He was arrested by Sheriff Huston
in cornfield and was placed in jail
at Fort Pierre
Bright and Winsome Girl =
Another dispatch published in The
Minneapolis Tribune says:
Miss Kelly, pretty young girl
from Mankato Mimi, was found foul
ly murdered yesterday morning in her
homestead cabin, 20 miles south of
Fort Pierre, A. f. Owen, a dis
carded sutton, who is accused of hav-
ing threatened the girls life is under
arrest. He was away from the place
at which he works all night, and can
give no explanation of his where
abouts.
The victim of the murder was found
by her brother, who had left her only
a few hours previously.
The tragedy is the elimination of
a western romance, carried out on
the frontier, primitive in it's action
and terribly tragic in it's result. 1t
has about it all the stirring plot in
stilled into the Virginian by Owen
Wister, only in this case, the young
girl was the victim, while in the
Virginian, it was the successful rival
whose life was attempted by the dis
carded suitor

DIED OF HEART DISEASE
MRS. BRADLEY PASSED AWAY
SUDDENLY LAST EVENING.
Had Enjoyed Thanksgiving Dinner
With a Neighbour, Succumbed
While on WAY Home.

From Fridays Dailv.
Mrs Edwin Bradley died very sud
denly of heart disease late yesterday
afternoon. She had taken dinner at
Thomas Dunlevy's residence on Baker
avenue, and felt unusually well. At
about 4:3O o'clock she started to
walk down the Milwaukee track to-
ward her apartments in Louis Lilies
residence on West Front street! Mrs.
Dunlevy accompanied her, and on the
way she complained of shortness of
breath. Finally, when near the church,
Mrs. Dunlevy suggested that she sit
down on pile of ties for moment,
which she did. Then Mrs. Dunlevy said
that she would 90 to nearby house
and get her drink of water. Mrs.
Bradley asked that some soda be
placed in it, as she said this was a
drink that she was III the habit of
taking when she was short of breath.
Mrs. Dunlevy brought the drink,
and Mrs. Bradley said that she felt
much worse and thought that she
was going to die. She drank the
water, and Immediately changed col
or, and lay back and expired. DIR.
A. @. Bjelland happened to be near
at hand, and was summoned and pro-
nounced Mrs. Bradley's malady as
heart trouble. Coroner Kennedy was
summoned, but found that no inquest
was necessary.
Mrs. Bradley was born in Utica, N.
iY., and was seventy-three years of
age. She came to Mankato about
forty -six years ago, and was united
in marriage to Mr.. Bradley forty
two years ago. A daughter was born
to her, but subsequently died. Mr..
Bradley died few months ago. Since
Mrs. Bradley sold the grocery store
that she and her husband had con-
Quoted, she made her home in Louis
Lilies, across the slough. She left
no relatives, but had many warm
friends who greatly regret her sudden
taking off, She was most excel
lent lady, who was loved by all who
were so fortunate as to know her.
Funeral services will be held Monday
afternoon at two o'clock from the res
idence of Thomas Dunlevy, and the
interment will be made at Glenwood
cemetery.

Young Ranchman Made Love.

Miss Kelly, a bright and winsome
girl, had been school teacher in her
Minnesota home. She first came to
this section of the country to a visit,
and becoming facinated by the free
life of the prairie, decided to take
up claim and throw in her lot with
other neighboring homesteaders.
Her arrival gave added impetus to
the social pleasures of the community.
Dances and long rides across coun-
try to the places of social rendezvous
were frequent and at all of them,
Miss Kelly was a favorite.
The young ranchmen were not slow
to recognize her charm, and as soon
as the awe caused by her less free
manner, wore off, lost no time in
openly making love to the girl who
had so recently Joined them.
Owen was among these and proved
an ardent but jealous woer. Miss
Kelly did not fancy him, but Owen
refused to be rebuffed and took the
situation in an ugly manner. He is
reported to khave threatened her life,
and on the day before the tragedy,
saw her riding with his successful
rival.
This apparently added fire to his
jealous hate, for he is said to have
repeated his threats.
Party at Girls Home.
Saturday night there was a party
at the home of Miss Kelly, at which
her brother was present. The party
was lively and happy one and Miss
Kelly, on the eve of her pitiful fate.
was never more animated or joyfully
winning.
The party broke up at midnight,
the young people saying goodbye and
starting out across the prairies for
their respective homes
A few hours later when Miss Kelly's
brother returned, he found the young
girl lying on the floor, her face
bathed in her own blood, and her
skull cruelty crushed.
There was nothing to Indicate that
the girl had been given even the
slightest chance for her life, the walls
of the lonely little cabin being the
mute and only witnesses of the pitt
full tragedy enacted.
The arrest of Owen followed
The name of Lilly Kelly does not
appear in the Mankato directory, and
no one could be found today who knew
the young lady. She was not relat-
ed to any of the Kelleys who live here
