RAMSEY HESITATES ON STAND.
Accused Lawyer Heard in His Own
Behalf.

The hearing of the evidence in the
S. A. Ramsey disbarment case at
Woonsocket was concludede Tuesday
evening and Judge Campbell return
ed to Aberdeen. S. A. Ramsey's tes-
timony was taken last. In his testi-
mony he denied everything that the
other two witnesses, E. S. Waterbury
and n. J. Durham, had testified to.
He disclaimed ever having received
any money on the notes in question
from Waterbury or his attorney, n.
J. Durham. He also denied having
written receipts which were admitted
in evidence and which were identified
by Durham as those he received from
him. When asked why, if he never
received this money, he had refund
ed it when confronted by Durham as
Waterbury's attorney he heSitated so
long that the court asked If 1t was the
wish of his attorney that an adjourn
ment be taken until the witness could
make answer. Ramsey at length re-
piled that he returned the money to
save litigation; that he had already
had so much trouble over the Water
bury affair that he was tired of it and
was glad to pay the amount in ques-
ton to end the matter.
The case is attracting a great deal
of interest, as the defendant, Hon. S.
A. Ramsey, is a man widely known
over the state, having been prominent
in political circles, being a Democrat
&c leader. He is serving his second
term as mayor Of WOonsocket
Mr.. Ramsey feels confident that he
will win out in the supreme court,
and the complaining witness, E. S.
Waterbury, is equally confident that
he has him enmeshed in such a chain
of evidence that his disbarment is
bound to result.

PEACE WITH NEGROES
LEADING SOUTHERNERS OUT To
SOLVE RACE PROBLEM.
Movement is Started I'm Georgia for
appointment of Commission of the
AbIest Citizens i'm the South to Deal
with the Situation.

Two great movements looking to the
solution of the race problem in the
south, especially in Georgia, have been
launched and have gained the support
of some of the most prominent men
in the country according to state
ment made hy conference Of the At
lanta, Ga, Evangelical Ministers as
ISOLATION Monday. One movement is
being urged by DR.. John e. White,
pastor of the First Baptist church,
who reported to the conference that it
is gaining great Roadway.
Five of the wealthiest men in the
SOUTH" Dr. White stated, have put
all they have back Of this movement.
We contemplated the organization Of
all the moral forces Of the south in
one great body and the appointment
of commission, composed of the best
and most learned men of the south to
handle the problem and deal with the
situation affecting the relationship of
the races"
The other movement is being fos-
tered by former Gov. w. ]. Northen,
OF Georgia, who has been urging in
speeches all over the state the estab-
lishment of better relations between
the races The plan contemplates the
selection of a state commission COM
posed Of lawyers, whose duties 1t shall
be to have the laws of the to so re-
vised as to do away with the present
objections to the legal manner of try
ing and Furnishing persons charged
with criminal assault and to provide
for the punishment of the leaders and
members of mobs

COWPUNCHERS IN DISASTER.
Two WOrsted i'm Encounter With an
Athletic ParsOn.

One of the athletic missionaries who
is working in the country west of the
river is reported to have been up
against Ralph Conner incident few
days ago. He was riding on his cir
cult near Hays and met two drunk
en- "cOwpunchers." They insisted on
his drinking with them and on his re-
fusal decided to force him to take a
drink. He dismounted from his horse
and as the first approached him,
caught him with a Battling Nelson
hook and he was temporarily out. The
second one, with the bottle, clinched
the parson and went down, losing the
bottle, which was cOnfiscated. BY
that time No. l had sufficiently return
ed to life to attempt TO get his six
shooter working, but before he could
get it into play it was kicked out Of
his hand, and also added to the confis-
Gated bottle, and the parson was al
lowed to leave the battlefield without
any further effort to detain him, the
"punchers' evidently knowing when
they had enough of muscular Chris
tianity.

FAMOUS SOAPMAKER SHOT.
William A. Proctor, of Cincinnati, Dies
of Bullet Wound.

William A. Proctor, of Cincinnati,
o., president of the Proctor & Gamble
company and son Of one of the firms
founders, is dead from a bullet wound
self-infiicted at his home in Glendale,
a suburb of that city. Coroner Cam
eron began an investigation of the cir
cumstances of the shooting, and in
the meantime refused to make any
statement except to say that Mr.. Proc
tor had died from bullet wound. Mr..
Proctor was widely known in business
circles and was a prominent layman
in the Protestant Episcopal church, to
the institutions Of which he was a lib
eral giver.
His wealth was estimated at many
millions, most of which had beer
made by himself. He was noted for
the cooperative scheme for division
of profits with employees which he had
designed for his company.

THREAT TO TEACHER.
School Near Marvin Farm is In
yaued

A report that gained wide circula-
ton at Dover, Del, Friday night to the
effect that Horance N. Marvin, Jr.,
the kidnapped boy, has been found in
a woods near the home of his father
at Kits hummuck, upon investigation
was found incorrect. The report gain
ed circulation from the fact that the
Logan school house near the Marvin
residence was broken into Thursday
night and practically torn inside out
by some unknown miscreant.
This is the school at which Lucy
Killen, who was held up Tuesday
night by two men, is the teacher.
Pinned to the black board in the
school room was a note which bore q
skull and cross bones and read: BE
ware! You told!'
When Miss Killen came upon the
two men they were talking about the
kidnapped Marvin boy. They drew re-
volvers and threatened to kill the girl
If she breathed to any person the con-
conversation she had overheard.

NEW VERMILLION INDUSTRY.
Local Capital Is Enlisted to Put Up
Canning Factory.

Vermillion is to have a canning fac
tory, which will be ready for business
by the time tomatoes are ripe. The
incorporators are E. c. Barton, Carl
Gunderson, c. Christianson, E. d.
Hawkins and Lester Morgan, of YER
million. The company is capitalized
at $4,000. No stock will be placed on
the market at this time. The plant to
be put up this year will not be a large
one, but if produce can be guaranteed
large additions will be made next year.
E. c. Barton is president of the
company; Carl Gunderson, vice presi-
dent; G. Christianson, secretary and
manager; E. d. Hawkins, treasurer,
and Lester Morgan, professor and su-
perintendent.
1t is planned to can about 100000
quarts of tomatoes this season and
several thousand cans of beans. Next
year corn and other things will be put
up If the venture is a success.

RAILROAD TAKES INSURANCE.
Protects Pierre Depot and Contents to
Extent of 100000.

Judge G.. d. Mead, Of Pierre, few
days ago wrote what is probably the
heaviest single insurance policy ever
taken out in Pierre, it being for $780,
900 on the freight house and contents
of the Northwestern road in that city
The huge building is filled practically
to the limit with freight, and the ques-
ton is where to store what is coming
every day. the shipments not going
out as fast as they come in. Last week
loo cars of freight were unloaded
there, and the record of the week will
probably be as great, and the risk on
so large an amount of property piled
up in one warehouse is more than the
railway company cares to carry for
itself.

EAMES WITHDRAWs HER SUIT.
divorce Action Against Julian Story
Dropped by the Singer

For the present at least Emma
Eames divorce suit against her hus-
band, Julian Story, of New York, has
been dropped, and her attorney has
been dismissed. Just what caused the
singer to make such a sudden change
OF front is problematical, but the be-
lief Is that she expected to go through
with the suit without any publicity.
The fact that the details of her action
became known, and she was subjected
to some embarrassment, is believed to
be the principal reason for discontinue
ing the case.
Another story, however is told, and
ut is that When Julian Story visited
New York City, after publication of
their disagreement, he succeeded in
convincing her that she had more to
lose by going ahead than by stopping.
He convinced her that however inno-
cent she might be, the mere fact that
her name was mixed up in a divorce
scandal would injure her with the
best class of people, and that conse-
lquently 1t might have some effect on
her business plans. !
1t is known that the singer went in
to fine rage when she found that her
story had found its way into the news
papers. Repeatedly she had warned
those who knew the secret to exercise
the greatest care to avoid publicity.
For months her bitter quarrel with her
husband had been fomenting, and the
fact that none of the preliminary mat
ters had been published led her to be-
lieve that she might actually get her
decree without the knowledge Of the
public.

Catfish in Cornficlds.

Residents living along the Missouri
river have been having lots of sport
the past few days During the recent
overflow many large catfish got out
into the sloughs and low spots. When
the waters receded they failed to make
their getaway. Now the sloughs are
draining off fast and many large chan
mel catfish are to be seen. Dan Doan,
who was reported drowned but subse-
Quently turned up all right. brought
a catfish to town the first of the week
that weighed 81 pounds.

TO PROVIDE FOR UTES.
Cheyenne Indians Agree to Lease Part
of Reservation

The chances now appear to be that
the Ute Indian band which last winter
broke away from their reservation in
Utah and were rounded up by the SOL
diers and brought to Fort Meade will
be located on the Cheyenne river In
dian reservation for time at least,
as the Indians of that reserve have
agreed to the government leasing
part of their reservation to the Utes
for period Of two years. In grant
ing this the delegation which went
to Washington asked for and was
granted certain concessions which
they desired. Just what part of the
reservation will be selected for the
location of the Utes is not known, but
If they are placed anywhere near the
reservation line, with their general
reputation there will almost cetainly
be trouble between them and white
settlers in the way of quarreIs and
rows. .....

COLLAPSES UNDER FIRE.
Accused Murderer Rushes from Court
Room


Leonard Leopold, who, with Howard
Nicholas, is on trial at Chicago charg-
ed with the murder OF Margaret Les
lie, an actress, Friday took the wit
ness stand in his own behalf. After
denying that he killed Mrs Leslie he
was asked:
- Did you ever see herr"
To this he made no reply, but sud-
denly sprang from the seat of the wit
ness chair and dashed from the room.
Bailiffs, lawyers and spectators rushed
for him. He had gone but short dis
lance in the hall when he tainted. He
was taken to the jury room and re-
vived. 1t is not believed the rush from
the room was an attempt to escape
but was due to a nervous collapse fol-
lowing the strain to which he had
been subjected on the witness stand.
