COME AND GET THE MONEY
IL Minnchaha County is Producing
Such Fine Corn They Ought
Enter the Contest.

IF. Livingston, who arrived home
from Mitchell bringing with him
some samples Of corn which is being
used to decorate the exterior of the
corr palace building. The samples
brought by MI. Livingston are called
fine by the Mitchell people, but they
do not compare with the samples Of
corn which are being brought i'm
from the farms In this vicinity"
The above item appeared in the
Sioux Falls Argus-Leader Friday
evening. There is just one way in
which Minnahaha county can make
good on the assertion of the Argus
Leader writer and that is to send an
exhibit over to the corn palace, and
Dawson county is willing to take its
chances on being defeated by Minne-
haha county on the corr question.
The corn palace committee has put
up three prizes Of $14O to the first,
$50 to the second and $50 to the
third county that can win out in the
prizes. Aside from this the commit
tee will present each county that
makes an exhibit $35. SO there is a
chance for Minnehaha county to get
something if she doesn't get first
place.
Having made the bluff Minnehaha
county is invited to come into the
contest and send over an exhibit.

MAN FROM OUT WEST
Postmaster Wells Had Quite an Elk
citing Time in the Hotel Rob-
berry in Chicago.

If any Of the hotel sneak thieves
in Chicago think they have a walk
away when they rob a western man
and they think the victim will sit
calmly by they have another think
coming.
When the sneak thieves entered
Postmasters Wells room in Chicago
the other night they found rather a
lively individual when he was awak-
ened from a sound sleep, and the
only mistake these fellows made was
that they evidently thought there
was nc one else in the room.
The Chicago Daily News gives the
following account of the exciting
time that Mitchell's postmaster had
in his encounter with the sneak
thieves:
1.-TWO daring hotel thieves, who
Icrept up to the fourth floor of the
Brevoort hotel in the early morning
hours today, robbed J.E. Wells, post
master of Mitchell, S. D., of a wallet
containing $S5 while the victim was
sleeping. Wells was aroused and
pursued one of the robbers down
the corridor and captured him as he
threw the wallet to his companion,
who was standing on a lower landing
of the stairs. While Wells was
struggling with his prisoner the
other thief fed through the hotel
and escaped.

The Capital City Will Open Its Elk
position Four Days Beginning
September %.

Pierre's Gas Belt Exposition will
throw its doors open to the public
Tuesday afternoon, September %,
and the management has arranged
four days of pleasing amusements.
Pierre Is making a fine success of
its agricultural exhibit and many ag-
ricultural products are brought in
from the reservation to demonstrate
what the former cattle lands are do
ing after a year or two of cultiva-
ton and also what the native soil
will turn out after a season of break
ing. Pierre people and those in the
surrounding country are displaying
a sincere and hearty interest in the
success of the exposition and it is
confidently expected to repeat the
former seasons success.
Aside from the agricultural dis
play the amusement features will be
very strong. The big musical part
of the four days program will be the
Reed band OF Sioux City, an organ
|ization that is one of the most popu-
lar in the northwestern states, and
it is widely known throughout South
Dakota.
Some fine street attractions have
been secured for the four days en-
tertainment and the visitors to the
capital city will be entertained in a
very hospital manner. Visitors to
Pierre will also have an opportunity
to see the new capitol which is now
in course Of construction, and there
are many other interesting sights
around the capital city, that will be
we'll worth seeing.

WORK wEAkEns KIDNEYS
Doan's Kidney Pills Have Done Grea.
Service for People Who Work in
Mitchell,

Most Mitchell people work every
day in some strained, unnatural posi-
tion-bending constantly over a desk
riding on jolting wagons or cars
doing l%aborious housework; lifting.
reaching or pulling. or trying the
back in a hundred and one other
ways. All these strains tend to wear,
weaken and injure the kidneys until
they fall behind in their work of fit
ering the poisons from the blood.
Doan's Kidney Pills cure sick kidneys
put new strength in bad hacks.
Mitchell cures prove it.
James E. Duncan, living on w.

more than ten years I have handled

on my kidneys and I began to suffer
attacks of backache which gradually
rev more painful and distressing un-

from a disordered condition of my
kidneys, for during these spells the
secretions were Irregular. thick and

engineers are getting rather super
stitious about working after $50, for
1t is the third time that it has been
in a wreck. Mr.. Plant, the switch
engineer, was also in the same wreck.
On this occasion none of the engin-
GERS or firemen were injured. A
brakeman by the name of Earl
Murphy jumped from a freight a
when the collision occurred and in
falling, sprained his back.
When the switch engine went over
the bridge the boiler exploded and
the noise sounded like a big charge
of dynamite. The steam escaped
with terrific force for a short time
and created much excitement in the
neighborhood. In a short space Of
time hundreds of people went to the
operation of clearing the track. The
head engine was off the rails and
stood on the ties of the bridge and
was finally pulled on the track. The
second engine gave but little trouble.
Before morning the south line was
cleared.
The freight train vas made up of
coal cars heavily loaded. Three cars,
two flats and one box car, were
thrown fromsthe track. One fiat car
was thrown off the track and turned
directly south, standing upright. The
box car was thrown from the track
and turned over on its side. The
other fiat a was simply smashed
to smithereens and the coal was scat
tered over the ground. Work was
commenced Monday to remove
the wrecked cars.
The south line enters the city on a
curve and it is impossible for the en-
gineer to see a train on the main line
but the fireman has a clear vision
from his side of the cab. The rule Of
the company is that trains on enter
ing the yard limits are required to
have their trains under absolute con-
troll so they a be stopped within a
very short distance. The engineers
claim, It is said, that the air on the
engine did not work, which was re-
sponsible for the wreck.

mitted Suiside.

State Fire Marshall Craft will not
have to appear against Miss Bessie
Sinkular in circuit court on the
charge of burning her millinery
store. 1t will be remembered that
the young lady a few weeks ago was
suspicioned of haveing set fire to her
store, and that Fire Marshall Craft
went down to Herrick, where the
store was located, to make some in
vestigations, and the trail lead suf-
ficiently close to the act of Miss Sink
ular that she was finally arrested and
bound over to the circuit court for
her trial this fall.
Mr.. Craft has just received the
information of the suicide of Miss
Sinkular as the shortest way out Of
the -. pending trouble, she having
kille~ herself with a shotgun. The
tragedy occurred at the Sinkular
home one mile south of Dallas. It
was shortly after 1 o'clock in the af-
ternoon that the young woman press
ed the muzzle Of the gun against her
heart and with her hand touch ed off
trigger for the discharge that was
to throw her lifeless body to the
ground close by the porch of the
homestead house.
Her brothers had gone to the field
to work. After the last man disap-
peared she was standing on the front
porch of the house. In the kitchen
e mother was at work. Miss Sink
ular asked her mother If the wind
was blowing through the door too
stronglys Her mother said it was
not. A moment after the mothers
answer a shot was fired.
The mother thought it was the
door slamming. But she went to in
vestigate She found the body of her
daughter lying across the shotgun
there on the ground near the porch.
Death vas instantaneous. The moth
er ran to the adjoining field for the
men. They at once called Coroner
Fish, who happened to be in Dallas.
The ron took charge of the body.
The people of Dallas generally be-
lieved in the innocence of Miss Sin
kular. Miss Sinkular opened her mil
linery store in Herrick last spring.
On the night of July 10 a fire broke
out in her store in a building rented
from Frank Uunemaker. The build
ing was destroyed and seven or eight
other places Of business were also
consumed by the fire.
Following the fire there was con-
siderable co%njecturing upon its prob
able origin. The general belief came
to be that the big blaze was of an in
cendiary nature. Ugly stories con-
Meeting Miss Sinkular with the fire
were circulated. She was arrested
and held to trial in the circuit court
under $1,000 bonds, which were at
furnished.

Wait for Door to Be Opened.
The thieves. who had been wait
ing in the hall until some one e
ed a door of a room, were rewarded
at = a. m. when Mrs. Wells went to
the washroom. Mason crept into the
suite and a searching Wells trous-
ers when the victim was awakened.
He leaped from The bed as the man
run from the room and chased him
down the hall.
Mason sruck at Wells, who was
in night attire, then tossed the wallet
over the landing as Wells knocked
him down. The victim saw another
man run up, take the wallet and
hesitate whether or not to go to his
companions assistance. He finally
fled.
Cries Arouse Hotel Guests.
Wells shouted for help and his
cries %resounded through the hotel,
arousing guests. Several employees
ran up to aid him and finally over
powered the thief. When Policeman
Hellberg and Doherty arrived they
recognized the man, they say, as a
well-known hotel prowler known as
The dago'. He saw them and al
tempted to run to a rear fire escape,
but was caught after a fierce strug-
gle.
After he was taken to the station
Mason asked leave to get a drink of
water. He was followed to the wash
room by Helberg, who jerked him
back just as the prisoner was about
to drop something down the water
pipe. Although the police then strip
ped him of his clothes they we're I'M
able to find anything of value that
the man would be anxious to dispose
of.
Lieut.. Alcock believes the pris-
oner wanted to get rid of an unset
diamond, the result. of some other
robbery, but the police could not
find the stone. Mason will be
"sweated" regarding two other down
town hotel robberies on account of
which the police have been search
ing for him several months"

Switch Engine Badly wrecked and

But Slightly.

Out at the east end Of the yards

Paul railroad company there seems
to be an unfortunate fate for the com
pany In the matter OF wrecks. Sat-
urday afternoon at 3:45 o'clock oc-
Cured the third in the course Of
four years. .
AT that hour Julius Plant was
working In the east end of the yards
with his switchengine. and with the
length Of his TRAN. 15 cars. he had
moved out on the south line and
crossed a half dozen car lengths
over the viaduct. which crosses Burr
street road leading on. to. the south.
AT the same time q freight train
with two engines was coming In from
the south Al a speed that was reck-
soned about 30 miles an hour. The
inevitable happened and a collision
occurred.
When the impact occurred the
switch engine was lifted in the air
and then fell over to the street be-
low, partially filing the roadway. and
stopping traffic. The farmer who.
went under the bridge not Ave min
.utes before w::th a load Of hay con-
graduated himself that he was not
there later.
When the switch engine went out
on the main line and had Travelled
about six car lengths over the via
duct Plant noticed the freight COM
ing in from the soutr. When it
emerged from the cut he whistled six
times to give warning to stop and it
seemed to him that the head engin-
Ger made an effort to stop his train
as it slowed up. However. after
crossing the Dry Run bridge the
train seemed to gain more impetus.

the engines forward. AS the freight

Stewart and Hopkinson and their
two fremen evidently saw the danger
and they. too. jumped from their en-
gines. Before leaving his engine
Plant had started to back up with
the idea OF possibly getting out Of the
way, but seeing 1t impossible he pull
edsthe throttle wide open and let the
engine go as far as It would. 1t was
