NO POLITICS IN
 GERMAN MEETING
Continued from First Page.)

Continued from First Page.) try from the earliest times and the important part they had played in the political upbuilding of the country and in it's wars He called attention to the voyage to this country before the com ing of Columbus of Norwegian ex- petition and that in th& there was a German named Teka who was the first ito come here. The first Settlement was made at Port Royal in South Carolina In 1862 and has grown since until to- day figures show that the Germans number 30 per cent of the entire for- elgn population of the country. They were prominent in the Revolution and in the civil war they contributed 200,- 900 soldiers.
 He then led up to the organization in June, 1900, of the Standardization National alliance which now numbers two and half million members ThA principal tenets of this organization are, first, no party politics to be taken up; second, religion to be a private matter; third, teaching of the German language in the public schools; fourth, teaching of gymnastics in public schools; fifth, opposition to any po1i- tical influence in the control and oper- ation of the public schools; sixth, urg- ing the Germans who come to this country to become American citizens as soon as possible; seventh, favorlng the abolition of old and useless laws; immigration of all healthy people ex- cept criminals and anarchists; eighth. ninth, formation of trade schools. These points MT. Zimmerman brought out in his talk to instruct the Germans present in the principles of the organt- zation.
 The Germans held the meeting prin- cipally as a matter of education and the organization is devoted largely to that end It Is the plan to establish in this city a free school where all per cons who so desire may be taught tue German language, elementary science and song.
 The committee in charge of yester- days outing consisted of Paul zim- mermah, Edward Anderson, William Radon, Theodore Greuner and Edward Zwingman.

A FIASCO.

London, Sept. 22.-To call the inter- national peace conference at The Hague a fiasco would merely be to re- peat the public opinion of the whole of Europe. Its meetings long since have ceased to command attention and the newspapers are giving them less and less space. The cosmopolitan throng which appeared at Queen Will helmina's capital early in the summer has dwindled to comparative hand full of officials. Only those compelled to remain on the spot for the signing of documents embodying the results of the meetings and few secretaries remain. The others have dispersed to their homes or are touring Europe.

PARIS NOT SURPRISED.

Paris, Sept. 22.-The barrenness of results from The Hague conference on the great questions in which the world IS interested, causes regret but no sur prise in Paris. From the very begin- ming France has fully realized that the jealous suspicious of the powers would prevent any steps towards the limita- ton of armaments; but she did hope for some progress toward compulsory arbitration. The friends of peace in France are especially grieved oyer the failure of the American proposition for a permanent court of arbitration which, it Is regarded, King Leopold stabbed in the back. In some quar- trs the admission of the smaller states to an equal footing with the great powers is considered .as a blunder.

PLAY AMERICANS LIKE.
Clean, Wholesome and Human. Says
 David BeIasco.

Both MT. Belasco and MT. Warfield were working hard at the rehearsal of "The Grand Army Man" last night and had little time to talk of anything outside of the show.
 Regarding the theatrical trust, MT. Belasco was non-committal, and as to plays, the humanity of the Beiasco plays tells more plainly than anything that can be written-the idea this man of wonderful mind has of the kind of play that the American the- ater-going public really enjoys. A clean, wholesome, human, American play is the one that pleases best, he says.
 That MT Belasco is so successful is not to be wondered at after one has watched his work at rehearsal. No one works harder, no one sees as he does the little things that need Just a touch here or there to make it all fit exactly as it should. Attention to the most minute detail, the adding of a word or an action hardly noticeable yet making so great change in the fin- ish that the players themselves find their parts grow into something they had never imagined could be made of it.
 I'd be willing to be supe In one of his companies, Just 10 work under his direction said one of hs stars at the rehearsal last night
 ''The Grand Army Man" bids fair 10 0utdo the Music Master" and MT. Warfield has created a new part for himself cut of the part MT. Re'asco cre- ated for him.

 Workers.

Boston, Sept. 22.-The international congress of religious liberals, attended by prominent divines and distinguished liberal religious workers from all over the world, opened its fourth biennial session in Boston tonight and for week will hold a series of meetings in the Unitarian and other liberal churches of the city. This congress, which is held under the direction of the International Council of Unitarian and other liberal religious thinkers and workers, meets for the first time on this side of the Atlantic, its pre- yious sessions having been in London, Amsterdam and Geneva.

 Following is the poem written by Mrs. Julia Ward Howe; Mount,of God, whereon with reverent
 feet The messengers of many nations
 meet; Diverse in feature, argument and
 creed, One in their errand, brothers in their
 need. Not in unwisdow are the limits drawn That give far lands opposing dusk and
 dawn; One sun makes bright the all-pervad-
 ing air; One fostering spirit hovers every
 where. So with one breath may fervent souls
 aspire; With one high purpose wait the an-
 swering fire; Be this the prayer that other prayer
 controls; That light divine may visit human
 souls. The worm that clothes the monarch
 spins no flaw. The coral builder works by heavenly
 law;
 Who would 70 conscience rear temple
 pure
 Must prove each stone and seal 1t
 sound and sure. Upon one steadfast base of truth we
 stand, Love lifts her sheltering walls on eith-
 CT hand; Arched OCT our head is Hopes trans.
 cendent dome: And in the. Fathers heart of hearts oui

CHALLENGE IS HERE
Continued from First Page.)

(Continued from First Page) under the old racing rules, under which Reliance, Columbia and the three shamrocks were built, is considered certain; for William Fife, the English designer who has drawn plans for Sir Thomas new challenger informed the Associated Press while here on a re- cent visit, that England would never contest for the America's cup under the old rule, whose conditions made impos- elble any chance of success for the challenger.
 It is believed by club members that Sir Thomas wishes to enter a sloop 75 feet on the water line and spreading something under 1000 square feet of canvas. There Is considerable opposi- tion to this, members of the club who have been active in such matters in the past holding that a race for the Amer ioa's cup should be a contest for the fastest yacht that can be built and that the only condition imposed should be that the water line lengths should not exceed ninety feet.
 If the contest is sailed under the new rules several prominent yachtsmen, it Is declared, will build boats to com pete for the honor of defending the cup,

Intending settlers who are looking
Tor an early opening of the govern

pated. Such Is the information given
out by ]. H. Scriven, the governments
allotting agent, who has been at work
on these lands since last spring. AS
to the progress being made in the
work of allotment, Mr. Scriven made
the following statement when asked
as to the possibility OF an early open
Ing of the government lands, it being
understood that the opening was de-
pendent largely upon the time 1t would
take to allot the lands:
We were forced to suspend our field
work last week on account Of where
the ground was burned over last fall

not drive stakes or dig pit holes. We
have allotted since beginning ..ae field
work on June / 700 different applica-
tions, and will have about, 900 more
to make in the spring. This winter
the force will be occupied in enrolling
what has been allotted, taking family
records and listing new applications
for next years work. am satisfied
we will be able to get all of this kind
of work done by the time the frost Is
out of the ground, so we can begin
field work again next spring. The
department requires me to take the
family record or census of each person

months in giving in their records.
This made it very inconvenient and
difficult work, as we frequently had to
make drives much too far in order to
reach our days allotting.

ENEMIES WRECKED TRAINS.

crouca Line Is Victim Of Murdereus
Vandals.
Secret enemies who, in seeking to
hamper the operations Of the road,
have already caused two fatal wrecks,
in each of which one life was lost,
and cost thousands Of dollars In dam
age, is the sensational statement of
one of the officials of the Missouri &
Northwestern railroad running be-
tween Rapid City and Mystic, made
at the end of lengthy investigation.
The operation of these persons who,
it is said, are suspected, but still I'M
known, have baff1ed the roads au-
thorities, so cleverly was the work
done, but expert detectives who now
are on the case, expect to unravel the
mystery.
Certain little peculiarities in the
wrecking of two of the company's
trains during the last few weeks
caused the officials to suspect that
some one was purposely trying to
udIuI IueIIi. 4 ueu II Is Sdlu II WAS
discovered that the last wreck, caused
by the burning Of a bridge, was the
direct result Of the work of an incen-
diary. This was followed few days
later by the burning of locomotive
left on the tracks over night, after Its
machinery had been, deliberately
broken and twisted out Of shape. Still
later the gasoline motor was visited
during the night and left mass Of
ashes.
Spikes have been lifted from rails;
switches turned as though by acci-
dent, and one by one the incidents of
the last few weeks are being shown
the work of spite or maniac. The
Crouch line, as the railroad is known,
has been operating less than year,
and has operated it's thirty-nine miles
of track under constant hoodoo. 1t
is controlled principally by capitalists
in Cleveland, Ohio.

Local Electric Company Secures Grant
From Mitchell.
Mitchell's city council granted a new
electric franchise to local company
for the period OF twenty years. A year
ago C. G. King, who was then the
owner Of the Mitchell Gas company,
started movement to renew the franz
shise at lower rate, and afight was.
made. Later King. had trouble with
his bank at Scotland, which failed, and
be was sent to the penitentiary. The
new company Of Mitchell men, who
axnact to buy the property OF the
Mitchell Gas company or erect q new
plant, has offered large reduction
In rates, the maximum being 10 cents
per thousand watts, which is made
lower still by larger use Of electricity.
Two gas franchises also have been
placed on their first reading. Both
make a lower rate for gas than now is
furnished in this city. The rate Of
one is slips and the other $3.50 per
thousand cubic feet If both are
passed Mitchell will have three gas.
