WIFE is HELD FOR MURDER.
Mrs. C'Grady is Accused of killing
Husband

The corOner's jury in the case of
john O'Grady an aged pioneer, who
was murdered in his home near Sioux
Falls, returned the following verdict.
John O'Grady came to his death by
shot from a shotgun, between the
hours Of 7 and 8 p. m. Sunday, Sept.
20. 1907. and from the evidence sub
mitted to us we believe the said shot
was fired by Mrs. John O'Grady felo-
.niOusly."
The states attorney will now make
formal charge of murder against
Mrs O'Grady and she will be arraign-
ed on this serious charge without de-
lay.
When information of the action of
the coroner's jury was conveyed to
Mrs. O'Grady at her quarters in the
county Jail she broke down completely
and loudly protested her innocence.
You know I did not kill john" she
said to the gentlemen who informed
her Of the action of the jury. When
she had become more quiet the ac-
cused woman sent for her attorney,
who had a long conference with her in
the county Jail.

SOUTH DAKOTA WHEAT CROP.
Doane Robinson Puts the Wheat Crop
at 3O.292.S13 Bushels.

Doane Robinson is at work on his
1907 crop estimates, and has secured
his figures on wheat and is working
up his estimates on oats, barley and
other small grains. He does not eX-
pect to complete his figures on corn
until he has made trip to the south
ern part Of the state, but from mate
rial at hand the indications are that
this crop will be shorter this year than
for last year The wheat estimate is
a total of 30,292,713 bushels, of which
2,52O,67O bushels are durum wheat
and the rest white wheat. In detail
he places the acreage of white wheat
at 2,505,079, with total yield of 27,-
772,2O6 bushels, and the acreage OF
durum wheat at 144,345. He credits
Deuel. county with the largest yield
OF durum, giving it 640,S30 bushels,
and gives Sphinx county the lead in
white wheat with 221, $50 bushels and
yield OF 2,65S,960 bushels.

SLOAN BOUND OVER.
Held for Alleged Attempt to Murder
in FCrncy Saloon.

The examination OF Thomas Sloan.
who shot Harry LOckhart in saloon
at Ferney on the night of Sept. 20,
was held before a justice in Aberdeen
Wednesday and resulted in the de-
fendant being bound over to the next
term of court in the sum Of 1000.
Sloan was unable to furnish bond, so
was taken to the county Jail. The
charge OF carrying concealed weapons,
which caused his arrest. was dismissed
before the examination began, and the
charge Of assault with intent to kill
was filed. LOCkhart is now in a hos
pital here, and his condition is serious.
Several witnesses testified to having
heard shots and witnessed the first
part Of the quarrel that led to the
shooting. but only one said he saw the
actual shooting. He was Herman
Nehls, in whose saloon the shooting oc-
Cured. He said that Sloan entered the
place with a revolver and pointed the
weapon at Lockhnrt. The first shell
did not explode. Re said, but the sec
Ond shot penetrated the floor and the
third struck Lockhart in the left side.

NOT UP TO CONTRACT.
Stamped Envelope Firm Suspected OF
Swindling Uncle Sam.

Swindiing Uncle sam.
Postmaster General Meyers has sus-
pended the payment of moneys due
from his department to the Hartford
Manufacturing company, of Hartford,
Conn, and has submitted the matter
to the attorney general for such fur
Ither action as may be deemed proper.
The Hartford Manufacturing COM
ipany up to July supplied the stamped
envelopes and newspaper wrappers
sold at postoffices. Chemical analyses
of the samples have disclosed the fact
that the composition of the envelope
paper has been below the require
tments OF the contract, and according
to the computations Of the experts of
the postofiice department the COM
pany has in the last four years wrong
fully benefited to the extent of about
i$425,
One Of the manufacturers who sup
piled paper to the company has admit
ted to the postmaster generals agents
that his firm furnished different ana
cheaper materials to that specified in
the contract, and that it was some
made at the instance of the Hartford
Manufacturing company.

BIGGER STOCK PAVILION.
State Spending $4,000 .SOr Improve
mentS at Mitchell.

The state Of South Dakota is ex-
pending about $4,000 on it's live stock
exposition building in Mitchell at the
present time in enlarging it for the
breeders association. After two meet
ings were held in the building for the
sale of registered cattle and hogs it
was seen that it was wholly inadequate
for the purposes intended, particularly
the sale pavilion, which will accom-
modate but about 900 people, and
when from 1900 70 1900 stock grow
ers come to the January meeting there
is not room to take care of the big
crowd. At the legislative session last
winter an appropriation Of $4,000 was
made to enlarge the building to ca
pacity that will meet the require
ments. The sheds for housing the
stock will also have to be enlarged
shortly, as at the present time they
will accommodate less than 100 head,
and on that account the examination
committee which inspects the stock
that Is brought to the sales makes the
standard pretty high, and as result
much good stock is kept out of the
sale. The breeders association has
done much toward building up the reg
istered stock Of the state, and as a re-
suit there is so per cent more blooded
stock on the farms than ever before.

BIG GAIN FOR FISH.
Many l. G. Stockholders Desert Harri-
man CamO

At the meeting of the local stock
holders Of the Illinois Central railroad
held in Hartford, Conn.,, Thursday it
was unanimously voted to have all OF
the proxies of the stockholders present
turned over to Charles NJ. Beach, of
that city, who is a director of the road
and a supporter of stuyvesant Fish in
the fight with the Hartman interests.
Those who had sent their proxies to
Mr.. Hartman will cancel them.
The stockholders reportd over 5000
shares. The meeting was overwhelm-
ingiy anti-Harriman, and besides vot-
ing on the disposition of proxies adopt
ed resolutions setting forth
Whereas, The present controversy
in the management of the Illinois Cen
trail railroad has brought to the
knowledge OF the stockholders the
fact that the board of directors has
delegated its power in the intervals of
sessions to an executive committee of
its number, which in turn has con-
ferred the same absolute power upon
its chairman, which we believe to be a
grave danger to the interests of the
corporation and of its stockholders;
and
Whereas, The fact has become
known that by this concentration of
authority the officers have been able
TO make large loans to themselves on
such securities and terms as they
themselves deem sufficient and are the
sole judge. And it is also evident un-
der this present system it is possible
for any individual delegated with
these powers to make in his own in
terests this railroad and it's business
subordinate and contributary to other
roads in which he may have a greater
personal interest; therefore, we stock
holders of the Illinois Central railroad
protest against this improper and haz-
ardOus practice, and we request the
board of directors to take such action
as will prevent these evils in the fu-
ture.

board OF agriculture, with his assistant.
]. L. Sankey, has finished sending
checks to all persons winning cash,

miums awarded amounted to some
thing over $1,000 and were distributed
among about 700 exhibitors. Every
premium and claim was paid in full.
and this, with the promptness with
which the work of the secretary'S Of
flee has been conducted, is appreciated
by exhibitors and all interested in the
fair. Mr.. McIlvaine is already plan
ming for next years exhibit, and in
this he has the hearty support of the

BIG DEMAND FOR LAND.
Filings at Pierre Show No Falling
OF.

The September filings in the land Of
flee in Pierre do not show any falling
off in the demand for South Dakota
lands. The filings took up nearly
three townships and over a township
of titles from the government was ac-
quired through final proof most of
the proofs being cash entries, which
come generally from Stanley county,
and the rest final proofs, which are
mostly from east of the river in
Hughes and Sully counties. For the
month there were 1853 homestead fill
ings, soldiers declaratories and 4
reservoir declaratOries taking up
nearly 10000 acres. The titles were
acquired through 11S cash entries and
20 final proofs. The contest business
of the office is growing, and hundreds
are now pending for hearings, show
ing a strong demand for the lands, as
contest business is expensive for those
engaging in it.

OF steel for tensile strength IN his con-
crete. Perhaps the greatest impulse 10
the industry was given by the work of
Francois Hennebique, another French
engineer. who, between 1882 and 1902, fur
nished the designs for about 10,00o struc-
lures costing nearly $i00o00.000. IN this
industry the American engineers have
tralled far behind their European brothers.

TIVE Fine Examples.
One fine example OF this form Of con-
struction is that of the bridge at Chat
telierault, France, built IN 1898. It is 26
feet wide by $50 feet long. The center
span Is fs4 feet and the two end spans
each 135 feet in the clear. All arches
have a rise Of one-tenth the length and
the arch ring is but 20 inches thick. This
bridge was built in three months and cost
but about 0,000. Upon completion Il was
rigidly tested by government engineers
and gave entire satisfaction. The most
remarkable feature shown by these tests
was that load concentrated upon one
arch caused a slight rise in the adjacent
arches, an evident proof that re-enforced
structures are truly mon0iithic
An excellent example of American work
of this sort was erected In 1906, in a
bridge over the Wabash River. It is
695 feet Ions and the cost was slightly
less a foot OF length. although the prices
Of materials and labor are greater than
in France One reason for this saving
is. however. due TO the peculiar construc-
ton. In this bridge the abutments are
each connected to the first pier by means
of steel rods imbedded in concrete under
the bed of the stream, These rods take
care Of the thrust OF the arch. which
must.otherwise be provided for by heavy
masses Of masonry.
