THE DISTRICT COURT
Case of Walter Sackeit Against
 P. H. Carroll on To-Day.

The suit of Walter A. Sackett
 against Patrick H. Carroll was begun
 in the district court to-day before
 a jury and Judge Cowell. MT Sack
 ett formerly lived here and was iden- tified with the millinery business of
 Isadore Chase. He is now resi-
 dent of Bridgeport. Some three years ago he had house to dispose
 of and he gave Leonard Asheim the architect the selling of it. Mir
 Carroll one day told MT Asheim he had customer for it. MT Sackett
 asked $13,O00. The customer was
 Mrs Margaret Pickett of Elizabeth
 street. Mir Asheim referred Mir
 Carroll to MT Sackett and 1t would seem that after some discussion of 1 the matter it was agreed to sell for $12,50O. The deed was drawn up by Attorney E. B. Kelley who gave l it to MT Asheim and he took it to | Bridgeport to get MT Sackett's sig 1 nature to it. The rest of the trans
 action took place in the office of Attorney Kelley and he gave MT Asheim his check for $3,002, money
 down on the purchase.
 As to what actually took place
 in the office of Attorney Kelley crea- | ted quite a wrangle between Attor- ney Russell counsel for the defense | and Attorney Root counsel for the plaintiff, but MT Asheim could not recall all that was said and done
 there, it having taken place several years ago. Mir Sackett alleges fraud. claiming that MT Carroll sold the property or could have done so for the price that was asked $13,- 00O

Marjjialro Roddaxso. who was bit- ten last week by a dog owned by John DeGastini. was taken to New York this morning by Dr Keeley for the purpose of having the former take treatment at the Pasteur insti- ute. Roddaxso was badly bitten on the hand and although 1t was thought that the dog was rabid, in order to make sure, its head was sent to New York to be examined. As soon as 1t was learned for cer- tainty that the canine was inflicted with the dreaded disease 1t was de- cided to have the injured man go down to take the treatment.

SOUTH DAKOTA'S PEN IMPROVED
Many Changes Made in Sioux Falls Prison-Uniforms for
Convicts Will Be Made by Convicts Under Super
vision Of Skilled Men.

In accordance with recent action
the state board Of charities and cor
r~ections preliminary arrangements
| now are being made for providing
| prisoners in the Sioux Falls peniten.
! tiary with new uniforms, and 900
| yards of materials has been ordered
for the purpose. Heretofore the pris-
oners have not worn any distinct
uniform outside Of a shirt of a par
| ticular color, which has been provided
by the state.
Three grades will be established for
| the new uniforms which have been
| decided upon, and the conduct of the
| prisoner will regulate the grade to
which he will belong. All prisoners
| will be received into the second or
intermediate grade. The uniform for
| this grade is a gray check Of wooden
| goods, the check being about one-half
inch in size. After receiving his suit
of gray check the prisoner by good be-
havior will be advanced to the next
grade, the uniform for which a navy
blue-gray cloth. This uniform will be
distinctive. and will be Of semi-mili-
tary cut, the blouse buttoning up tight
under the chin and the coat having
straight corners.
If the prisoner is d%isobedient and
will not conform to the rules of the
prison, he will be reduced from either
the first or the second grade into the
third, the uniform for which is a black
and white stripe, the stripes being al
ternate n about n inch wide.
Prisoners Make Clothes.
The cost Of the cloth for the new
uniforms will be about 5000. 1t is of
good material. and the prisoners will
be comfortably and warmly clad. A
tailor is to be employed by the prison
authorities to assist skilled prisoners
in making up the uniforms. The tailor
will supervise the cutting and the
prisoners will make the clothes.
The shirt factory which was estab-
lished at the ~penitentiary a year or
more ago is proving a great success.
During the month of August a total
OF 1920 dozen of shirts were turned
out Of the factory. These shirts are
made for a large dealer who furnishes
the cloth. FILINGS and everything en-
tering into the making of the shirts.
The penitentiary factory turns out the
shirts for a stated price per dozen.
Men in the shirt factory work from
1880 in the morning until $50 In the
afternoon, with an interval for dinner.
There Is a system of self-earnings
which is allowed the prisoners who
are employed in the shirt factory.
Each man has a regular amount to
turn out each working day. If he is
able to exceed the amount that is al
lotted to him the profit that the state
would have made is credited to the
prisoner turning out the excess of
shirts and is paid to him at the end
of his term of imprisonment.
Some of the men have become SO
expert that they are able to earn from
81 to SIS per month on excess shirts,
while others make as low as 81 per
month. The individual profit making
is an incentive for industry and good
habits.

TO GUST THIRTEEN SALOONS.
Sioux Falls Mayor Is Said to Plan Re.
duction to Twenty.

A movement, alleged to have been
inaugurated by Mayor Pillsbury, which
has for its alleged object the reduc-
ton Of the number of saloons In Sioux
Falls to twenty, or one for each 500
inhabitants, estimating the population
Of the city at 10000, has greatly agita-
ted the local saloon men. Should an
attempt be made to carry out the plan
the matter probably will be carried
into the courts for adjustment.
Thirty-three saloons are doing busi-
ness in Sioux Falls. They all will be
permitted to continue in business un-
til some commit some act which would
enable the authorities to lawfully re-
woke their licenses, when no new H.
censes would be issued. 1t Is claimed
that this procedure will be followed
until the number Of saloons has re-
ceded to twenty, when that number
will be fixed as the maximum.
Those opposing the reduction In the
number of saloons point out that I'M
der the state law which permits one
saloon to each 300 population in a
city or town, the city OF Sioux Falls
would be entitled to a total Of about
forty-f1ve saloons, more than a dozen
more than the present number.

The approach Of the Frost King this
fall has been Of deep concern to Mitch
ell as we'll as to the farmers Of the
Northwest, for were he to arrive be-
for the crop natures in a day or two
the corn palace celebration in Mitchell
might lose some of the enthusiasm
that now pervades the atmosphere Of
Its halls. The outlook for a bumper
crop is encouraging, and IL all goes
well the greatest corn festival yet held
will open Sept. 25 closing Sept. %.
Mitchell as a corn palace city has
received the greatest amount Of ad-
vertising of any place of 5000 inhsb BIZ
tants In this country, and this enter
prise has come to be the pride Of the
city and the state. Mitchell, however,
does not claim to be the originator of
the corr palace idea. It had its In
ception in Sioux City, Iowa, in 1887,
but the enterprise failed to meet the
expectations of its promoters and the
project finally was abandoned. Profit
ing by the failure of her sister city,
Mitchell conceived the idea of adver-
Using the corr of the state,
and following different lines, built the
first building In 1892.
The corn palace of 1907 is well I'M
der way and will be completed in time
for the opening of the exhibition. One
Of the big features In the agricultural
display will be the products brought

MISTAKE IN DRUG FATAL.
Physician Ends Life With Poison He
Gave Patient.

Did DIR. f. V. F~rankenstein take
carbolic acid as the result of a mis-
take In the selection of a remedy for
some ailment of his own, or did he,
in remorse over the placing Of the
acid, by mistake, in a prescription he
had filed for a young woman, take the
fatal poison with suicidal intent? Is
a question to which the answer has
been sealed by the death of the physi-
clan.
DR.. F~rankenstein has practiced med.
icine at Epiphany, in the northern
part of Hanson county. He was sew
entry years old.
The physician at first was thought
to have been a suicide, but upon an
investigation by the ron other
facts were brought to light that cast
doubt upon this theory.
The physician was called upon to
prescribe for a young woman on the
morning of his death and he put up
a bottle Of medicine with the usual
directions. The girl attempted to
take a dose Of it, but was forced to
stop when it seemed to burn her
mouth. She went back to the physi-
clan and told him she thought that a
mistake had been made in putting up
the remedy. The physician wanted to
prove to her satisfaction that he had
not made a mistake. and removing the
cork Of the bottle, he took a dose of
the medicine, which he declared to be
all right. To be on the safe side the
doctor poured the contents out of the
bottle, reflled the prescription and
gave II to the girl, who, however, did
not take any OF the second prescrip-
ton.
II is not known whether the physi-
clan took another dose of The medi-
cine after the young womcn went
fway, but at noon he complained of
feeling i'll, and said something to his
son about having made a mistake. By
noon he was unconscious and an hour
after he died. The %coroner's jury gave
the verdict that the doctor came to
his death as the result OF an overdose
Of carbolic acid, taken by mistake.
Burns were plainly visible In his
mouth and when the stomach was ex-
amined the evidence Of the acid was
strong.
The second prescription put up by
the doctor also contained carbolic
acid. :

Has Winter Supply on Hand.

Has Winter Supply on Hand.
The coal and fuel question, which is
engaging the attention Of many parts
of this country. is not worrying Ar
mour or Douglas county. A visit to the
several coal dealers Of Armour re-
veals the fact that fully seventy r
of coal with a total Of 1,S75 tons have
been received. There Is at present
in the coal bins Of the dealers at least
1000 tons of coal. The farmers have
not begun to lay in their coal supplies
as yet, but the dealers do not antici-
pate any difficulty in meeting the de-
mand.
Shippers are responding to orders
for coal with a delay Of not three days
to a week behind orders. The bulk of
the coal for this part of the Northwest
is received by way Of Duluth, both
hard and soft coal. 1t is anticipated
that the demand will be a trife heav-
Ter than last year, owing to the corn
crop being so light, and thus shorten
Ing up the cob supply.
A company that is one Of the heavi.
est dealers In fuel in that part OF the
country states that 1t is meeting with
every success in getting its wants
filled and estimates that at least 10
per cent Of the people resident in the
city have laid in their coal supply for
this winter, some ven going SO far as
lay In enough to last them two win
tiers.

Trapper May Be Employed by Govern

Trapper May Be Employed by Govern
ment to Wipe Out Wolves.
IL the government adopts the plan
of the ranchers living In the western
part of Custer county, an expert trap
per soon will be employed to protect
the many focks and droves Of cattle
in that section from the depredations
Of wolves.
Wolves in the open country between
Custer and Newcastle, Wyo., always
have been numerous, but before
have their visits to the ranches been
so disastrous as during the last sum-
mer when the ranchers have lost, 1t Is
said, something like II per cent of
their flocks and cattle. The wolves
are large buffalo wolves, a couple of
which easily can hamstring a steer,
and they seem so fastidious in their
tastes that they eve come back a
second night to finish up the killing of
the night before, but always select
another victim.
The state, county and Stock Grow
ers' association have offered bounties
aggregating $40 per head, yet few of
the wolves have been killed this year.
When the ranchers appealed to Super
visor j. F. Smith of the Black Hills
forest reserve, he in turn asked the
forestry department to employ How
ard Wicker, an'expert, to thin out the
wolves.
