SOUTH DAKOTA
TOWNS RAID[D
Lowry and Alaska Are Fired by
Band of Mounted Masked
Men.
BUILDINGS ARE DESTROYED

Aberdeen, S. D., Aug. 26.-Revenge
for the arrest of several suspected
horse thieves is believed to be the
cause of the raid of the towns of Low
ry and Alaska by night riders at an
early hour yesterday morning Both
towns narrowly escaped being wiped
out by fire.
All the buildings are frame struc-
lures and furnished good fuel for the
flames. Both towns are in Walworth
county, on the river extension of the
Minneapolis & st. Louis railroad and
only a few miles apart.
Lowry was the first town raided.
Herman's general store was fired by
the raiders and the flames spread rap
idly to adjoining buildings. Seven
masked men were seen riding away.
but no attempt was made to follow
for the town was in danger of being
destroyed.
Alaska Asks Aid.
While the citizens were fighting the
fire a telephone message was received
from Alaska asking for aid and stat
ing that the town had been fired by
raiders. Similar messages were re-
ceived at Hoven and other nearby
towns
In the meantime the sheriff had
been sent for and he arrived at
Alaska this afternoon. 1t is reported
that the authorities have clue which
may lead to arrests.
The hotel at Alaska is one of the
burned buildings, and the loss can
only be estimated at this time 1t
will reach about 100000; fully COW
cred by insurance.
Laid to Horse Thieves.
Later advices stated that six build
ings were destroyed at Alaska and a
like number at Lowry. The raid is be-
lieved to have been inspired by the re-
cent activity of the authorities of the
two towns against suspected horse
thieves. The sheriff of WalWorth
county is investigating.
The fires were first discovered at
Lowry and at $3.50 a. m. at Alaska.
Both fires were undoubtedly the work
of the same band.

The many friends and acquaintance

Atlanta Friday night, when she was
run down by an automobile and dragged
several yards before the machine could
be stopped,
Miss Brady is in Atlanta with Judge
and Mrs. A. D. Penney. of Fort Pierce,
at the Coolidge sHouse. Miss Brady,
Mrs. Penney, Miss Laura Penney and
Miss McElroy, friend bad gone down
town for stroll at the time of the de-
cident. They had started to cross
Peachtree street In front of the Gambler
building, when the auto approached.
All of the party except Miss Brady
saw the machine and stepped back to
the sidewalk, but she was unable to
get out of fine way in time and was
struck. Her hair became entangled in
the machine and she was dragged,
screening historically, for several yards

my price, and it was always promptly
conceded. This old round world never
held two more whole-souled honorable,
conscientious nor more worthy business
men than w. I. Falconer and D. e.
Merrill who have beer my employers
in this work; and | naturally wished to
do all in my power to reclprocate their
courtesies in business, and / held on.
In this connection, when terminating
my term of service with them. | want
to say that never once during my COP
nection with The Bee keeper has
either member of the publishing firm
ever limited at any change in my edi-
ltorial course, nor suggested a thing
relating to their goods. The Bee
Keeper has been edited strictly on the
lines of thoroughly Independent trade
journal, with no view in mind other
than that of serving the interests of the
bee-keeper at large. 1 have enjoyed
the work and have some reason to be-
l'eve that my efforts have been in mea-
sure rewarded.
The untimely death of our business
manager, Mr.. D. L. Merrill, on the 10th
of May last has materially increased
the responsibilities of Mr. Falconer,
and he has kindly consented to relieve
ME by disseminating the publication of
the journal, which will somewhat de.
crease his labors. In brief letter da-
ted July 18th he simply requests me to
assure our readers that all money that
has been paid in on subscription ac-
counts will be returned. Some little
time will of course, be necessary to get
through with this work OF refunding
thousands Of small amounts, but it will
come to every one who has a credit on
our subscription BOOKS.
Again thanking my friends for their
loyal support, as do also on behalf of
the w. T. Falconer Manufacturing
Company, for whom I bespeak the con-
tinued generous patronage of the past,
| bid you all goodbye.
Fraternally,

they had in plenty: so each day there
rained down Mailman, or little biscuits,

the bugs ate them; so they must be

The News has maintained that the
convict lease system is wrong in prin-

brutally wrong in practice.

The horrors that have been uneoy'

DROWNING at Ten NINE.

Last Saturday while party of boys
were 10 swimming in Ten Mile Creek
Claude Walker, son of Mr.. and Mrs
Kyle Walker, was drowned. It seems
the boys, ell Of whom we're Of good size,
we're racing on long distance diving
and young Walker stayed under too
long. Apparently death was instanta-
neous and occurred while under water,
for he was pulled out immediately by
his companions and all efforts 10 revive
him failed to produce spark OF life,
and there was no water in his body as
is usual the case in drowning.
The entire community sympathizes
with Mr.. and Mrs Walker 10 the loss
OF their son.
