County School Letter.

A bracelet was found near the
New Opera House on the day Of
the officers ard teachers meeting.
1t may be had by calling at the
superintendent's Office and proving
ownership.
Miss Edyth Townsend of Tripp
has taken charge of Emanuel
school No. 48. This school has
been closed for two years.
If any school officers who were
present at the officers meeting Dec.
10 failed to receive their certii-
Gates, it is because they failed to
register. II such officers will Ger.
tify their presence to the Office,
certificates will be forwarded.
There are thirty five consolidated
schools in South Dakota. They
are all giving the best of satisfac-
ton.
Every school should be so equip
ped with heating appliances that
the room can be heated in man
ner that all pupils will be comfort
able. In one school the past week
we sat we'll back in the schooI and
consequently suffered much from
the cotd. In the next school we
sat up near the stove and suffered
fully as much from the excessive
heat as in the other school from
the cold. It was quite evident that
the pupils were suffering also.
Where stoves are used, stove
jacket should be provided by all
means. Then, only, can all be
made comfortable.

The hog raisers of Iowa will en-

state to make an appropriation for
the establishment of a serum man

ton of serum for the cure of hog
cholera. The remedy was discov-
cred by the bureau of animal in
dustry at Washington and is said
to be an effective cure for the dis
ease, but the present cost is $1.0O
per dose which makes it too expen-
sive for common use.

THE DISPENSARY MUDDLE
Will Be Finally Settled in United
States Supreme Court.

Ashevillc, April 2.-Judge Prich-
ard has notified the counsel for the
State of South Carolina that he would
grant their motion for supersedeas
bond to stay the crdcr of tho court
appointing receivers for the 100000
trust fund held by the winding up
commission Of the State dispensary.
Judge Prichard grants this motion
provided that the defendant winding
up commission will give bend equal
In amount to the claims held by the
counsel for the claimants.
The effect of the supersedeas will
be to stay all proceedings in tho case
pending an appeal to the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals on
the question of Judge Pritchard's jur-
isdiction and to head off the demand
of receivers appointed by Judge
Prichard for the dispeIsary funds
now in the hands Of tho commission.
The bond required in the order
will probably be given by the dispen-
sary commission. w. F. Stevenson,
attorney for the commission, said
that this will be probably one of the
necessary steps in the appeal taken
by the commission, and Of course that
body would abide by any decision Of
the Supreme Court of tho United
States.

DREAsnEDs SON WAS HuRr.
Mother Arrived on Scene OF Accident
Immediately After Il Occurred.

New York, April 2.-Separated
from her son, William G.. Cooper, by
nearly one hundred miles, Mrs. ella
Cooper, of Philadelphia, dreamed
tnat she saw him killed by a Sixth
avenue car on the Elevated. So very
vivid was the imagination OF the mo-
ther that she Immediately hurried to
this city. Her route across town on
her way from the Pennsylvania rail-
road ferry lay through West Twenty
third street. BY a remarkable CO.
incidence she reachedSeyenth avenue
only few seconds after her son had
been Knocked down and seriously In
Jured by an eastbound trolley car.
From the window of the car In which
she was sitting, she recognized the
face lying on the ground surrounded
by large crowd.
"a She jumped from the car and
rushed to his side. When he re-
gained consciousness his mothers
face was the first thing that met his
gaze Believing her to be in Phila-
Geiphia he could not account for her
presence.
In his dazed condition the doctors
who responded with the ambulance
from the New York hospital thought
1t best not to tell him OF the psychic
phenomenon that had brought her to
his side. Mrs. Cooper bore up brave
ly during the strange reunion, but
when the ambulance drove away, she
tainted.
The young man is badly injured
but just how serious his injuries are
the surgeons will be unable to say
for several days.

Lay dead and dying In their gore.

Each to his standard trne'
Let them be praised, those gallant
men

One cause was lost, the other won,

A common brotherhood of men,
The grand old blue, the noble gray.

And in her mouth the song-birds

that there are now 5000 bales in
the Union Warehouse. and about
2,300 bales in the Standard Ware
house In addition to this there Is q
lot Of cotton stored in the mill ware
houses in the city, some Of the mills
allowing their farmer friends to use
their warehouses. There are alto
gether little more than $1,000 bales
Of cotton stored In the warehouses
In this city. Mr.. Wakefield says that
you can see cotton piled around many
gin houses in the country and around
many homes on the farms. The
farmers of Anderson county have on
hand tod ~ about $4,000 bales Of
cotton, or about one-third of the last
crop. And there does not seem to be
the slightest disposition to sell until
the price goes up.

Don't stop feeding the hens just

SHUT YOUR EYES,
Open YOur Mouth"--She Calmly
Blew Out His Brains.

| Berlin, April 2.---"The face of an
angel and the heart of a fiend," they
say of Crete Boyer, pretty flaxen-
haired daughter of the mayor of
I Brande, soon TO be put on trial for
the murder of her lover In addition
to this crime 1t is claimed she MUIR
dered three illegitimate children born
to her. Hers Is one of the most re-
markable cases on record. Although
OF good family and refined education,
she is virtual demon.
All her life she has moved In cul-
tured and educated circles. She went
to the best schools, enjoyed excep-
t1onal advantages and was accom-
plished in music and art. For years
she cleyerly concealed her double life.
| At seventeen she entered into inn
Iproper relations witha young Dresden
commercial traveller named Merker.
Three children were born to them,
and she murdered each Immediately
after birth, 1t is claimed. She dis
i posed of the infants so skilfully that
no suspicious were aroused.
| While still carrying on her intrigue
with Merker her parents introduced
ber to q wealthy engineer named
Pressler, hoping that she might make
I a good match. Pressler became In
Il lAoSuoSOu Will hOl dhO tucy WST6 UG-
trothed. All the time she was con-
tinuing her relations with Merker,
and together they were plotting how
they could obtain possession of Press
ler's fortune. One day she left her
home md went to Chemnitz, where
Pressler lived. She went straight to
bis apartments and found him there.
i Il have a great surprise for YOU
she said, "but you must smut your
eyes and open your mouth Sus
pecting nothing more than some girl
ish prank, Pressler obeyed without
hesitation.
| Then the girl thrust pistol in
Pressler's open mouth and blew out
his brains at single shot. He fell
dead at her feet. No one heard the
shot, and she proceeded with cool
determination to complete her plans.
Seated at his desk, she wrote, with
deliberation and perfect clearness, q
will which left the whole of his
property and fortune to herself. She
previously had informed herself re-
garding the necessary legal language
for such document. Then she for
| ged his signature. Altogether. she
spent more than an hour in the room
with the corpse, and in icaving took
all the cash she could find, some
thing near $500. She enclosed the
will in an envelope and locked ii In
| an inner compartment of the desk,
where it was later discovered
Pressler's dead body was found in
such position that 1t appeared a
clear case of suicide, and the investi-
eating judge returned verdict to
that effect.
Not until weeks afterward, when
doubts had arisen regarding the o>,-
thenticity of the will, did suspicion
fall upon the girl Detectives. set to
watch her, discovered her relations
with Merker, and eventually she was
arrested. Subsequently she made q
fall confession.

The democrats seem to be out
generating the republicans in the
matter of getting speakers into
this state. Geo. Johnson, the
democratic governor of Minnesota,
addressed the people at the state
fair this week while the republi-
cans had no one. Mr.. Bryan has
been engaged to speak at the
Mitchell corn palace, and so far
the republicans have no speaker of
national reputation to present their
side. A committee has been to
Chicago to consult Chairman
Hitchcock in an effort to get Mr..
Taft, but they secured no promise
except that arrangements might be
made later on to send Mr.. Sher-
man, republican candidate for vice
president, to Mitchell some time
during the exposition. An invita-.
tion has been extended to Eugene
Chaplin, the prohibition candidate
for president to speak one day
during the exposition, and it is ex-
pected that he will accept.
