yer, Mrs. Thomas Meredith, living
three miles southwest of South Shore,
is alive, as Saturday morning with the
end of the barrel in her right ear, she
pulled the trigger five times A small
pin had been lost from the gun. causing
all of the bullets to lodge in the barrel.
She escaped without serious injury
except that the side of her face was
severely burned by the powder. Pre-.

Mrs. Meredith burned the large house

Now she is in the Codington county Jail

In the ideal football game of the sea
ion on the Nebraska field Saturday at
| Lincoln, Neb., the Corn Huskers eleven
was held to tie score, 6 to 6, by South
Dakota, and the verdict of the crowd
was that the Lincoln gridiron contin
gent was lucky to escape defeat. The
showing made by the Nebraska men
YVES distinct disappointment, but the
coaches insist that there is material in
the squad, and they will improve. The
South Dakota line was trifie heavier,
but for the entire team the weight was
not far different For the first fifteen
minutes, during which the visitors
scored their touchdown, the Nebraskans
ut times were played off their feet.
They braced in the second half and for
a time assumed the offensive, bat
showed signs of weakening as time was
called.

In great glee they set fire to it. The

Had she lived another week, Mrs. Will

| Although during her late years she had
been feeble, Mrs Williams was in old
age an active woman, teaching Sunday
school in the Baptist church until past
80 Educational and church work were
always her chief interest, and during
her early life she was public school
teacher in New York state. Only two
out of seven children survive her. The

The calendar for the October term Of
the supreme court is out, and is the
shortest calendar in the history of the
court, containing but twenty -one cases.
Of which sixteen are on the criminal
calendar. This short calendar is caused
BY the ruling Of the court that no cases
would be set for argument at the Octo-
Der term except criminal, preferred and
rehearings. This is to allow the court ]
from now until the April term to clear
up all old cases which are now before
them for consideration, and to allow
them to start with "clean slate" at
the April term, and to keep the calendar
clear from that time on. Such action
will allow decisions within a few days
after arguments.

various organizations of trainmen, and the questions in dispute were taken up systematically. But the conference bore no fruit. The negotiations failed, after two whole months had been consumed in discussions. The situation became more strained than before. All the Western railroads had to face the fact that the men had, by ballot, decided that they would strike unless the roads made reas- enable concessions. Such an act would mean that one hundred thousand men all over the West would 80 out at mo- ment's notice, tying up all traffic for an indefinite length of time. The matter seemed almost hopeless.
 But not quite. Everything else having been tried the railroads asked for the services of the governments professional peacemakers. Commissioners Knapp and Neill responded immediately. A meeting was arranged for between the hostile leaders in Chicago. After a week of the most strenuous work, they submitted to both sides a form of agreement that was promptly accepted. But, even to this day, the exact terms of that agree ment are not known. No one knows what each faction conceded. But both slues were evluenIly content, II not sat isfied, for the labor organizations ex- pressed their pleasure that strike had been avoided, and several of the rail road officials let Uncle Sans peaeemak- CTS know that the matter had been well disposed of.
 After this the professional peacemakers settled three cases satisfactorily by me- diation. They were one on the Rio Grande and two on the Missouri.
 Another case where the peacemakers settled the controversy with satisfaction to all and without strike was that of the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific. The bone of contention between the road and it's telegraphers was the proper in depreciation of the nine-hour law. Though but one road was involved in this argu- ment, every other road and every other employe in the West was watching the outcome and p1ann1nGi to1d 1cnfAEaha.-
