from the final day of the drawing of
names Of winners in the Cheyenne River
and the Standing Rock Indian reserva-
tions, Mrs. Sylvia r. Gillard of Sandusky,
Ohio a widow, aged sixty years. glanced
sadly at the printed list of winners upon
the wall. All day long, day after day,
she had sat at the drawing In the vain
hope that she would hear her name.
Slowly scanning the list. she was thrill
ed to see her own name opposite choice
number 1889 She had won farm.
Thank God" she screamed, my
prayer has been answered. Shaking
hands with Judge Witten and all his
deputies she sang for JOY. She had
worked nights in hotel to pay her way
to Aberdeen. She sat up days to hear
her name, but when it was called she
had fallen asleep.
The drawing Of the 10000 names ended
yesterday, S. Corrine Of Clark City. Iowa,
being the last. The task of tabulating the
names will continue for a month.

PELLAGRA GOING AWAY.
Of Winter Believed to Be
Cause of Disappearauce.

CHICAGO. October 30.-Pellagra, the
disease which developed scare in the
corn belt. is beginning to disappear in
the insane hospitals at Dunning and Ell
gin, where it f1ourished during the sum-
mer months. Only few cases are being
treated at these institutions
At Dunning four patients now are at
f1icted with pellagra. 4 total of twenty
six patients were treated there since the
disease first was discovered fourteen of
whom died. In the other twelve cases
the malady has subsided. Al Elgin only
two cases remain.
The approach of winter Is believed to
be the cause of the disappearance Of
the disease. Doctors studying pellagra
at the two hospitals are unable to state
positively whether the disappearance of
the disease Is temporary or permanent.

AUTO SMASH ON WAY TO RACES
ONE OCCUPANT KILLED.; TWO
OTHERS INJURED.
Touring Machine Making Turn at
Full Speed Runs Into Stone Wall.
Identity Uncertain.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 30.-One man
was killed. a woman and her male es-
cort were badly hurt and a heavy tour
ing automobile was wrecked early this
morning when the car driven by John
Pratt, salesman in the employ of the
Pope Hartford Company, in making the
steep turn on the Highland avenue
boulevard into Force Tube avenue, ran
off on tangent and smashed full head
into the stone wall that incloses the
National cemetery.
The dead man is believed to be Will
liam Barrett of New York, but the po-
lice are now making efforts to establish
his identity beyond a question.
The woman, who is in the Bradford
Street Hospital suffering from frac-
tured rib and body contusions, gave her
name as Mary Crawford and said that
she was twenty-one years old. At first
she told the surgeons that she lived at
Montgomery street Jersey City, but later
changed this address to 355 East 56th
street, New York city.
Changed Their Addresses.
Her escort. who sat with her in the
tonneau. said he was August Helfner,
thirty-tWO years old, and he also changed
his address from l Montgomery street,
Jersey City, to Crestwood avenue. Yon-
kers. Helfner is badly hurt and there is
a possibility that he has sustained frac-
tured skull. He and the woman were
taken in an automobile to the same hos
pital.
The authorities were handicapped in
getting the details Of the accident, as it
is Salu that Pratt and a woman who was
with him in the car left the scene and
his wrecked automobile as soon as the
injured were placed in autos that came
up and hurried to the several hospitals.
The auto party was on its way to the
