changed from existing laws, but where re-
auctions were made by the house, the
senate committee has restored the Dingley

Cocoa FreeJ Liquors Taxed.
THE senate has returned cocoa to the
free list, believing al article of such gen.

in all forms of chocolate, should no more
be made dutlable than tea or coffee. The
committee felt that If 1t was necessary to
increase revenue it could be done better

in the construction OF this bill.
THE enaee committee has applied the
same principle to spices, and has restored
them to the free list, where they nave al

the senate COMMITTEES has Increased the
rates on spirits and wines Is per cent

yield an additional revenue of Ss.OOO,O 600,

In the cotton schedule there has been
an extension of the specific rates to cover
a class of fancy goods and novelties which
are covered in the existing law by ad

rates have not been Increased.

HoMEsTEADER MAY LOSE LAND
Government Fighting Title Because
He Owned Farm.

PIERRE. S. D., April 12-(SpeciaI.)-
A contest case from Faulk county in the
local land office here has points in It
which will be of interest to more thai one
holder Of government land. The contest
was brought on the ground that the claim
ant at the time he filed was the owner of
$50 acres of land, which, in fact, would
disqualify him for making a filing. His
defense is that he did own the land prior
to making the filing, but disposed of 1t in
March and made his filing in April. The
deeds. though, were not made out until
some time in May on account of delay in
some manner, but he contends that the
sale was made before he filed. AS he has
over 5000 worth OF improvements on the
tract in question the case win be a hard
fought one.

PIERRE, s.. D., April l2-(SpeciaL)-
Wool growers in this part of the state are
enthusiastic over the outlook this spring.
Last year the best price they could get was
about Is cents, but this spring they are
being offered an advance OF about % cents
before shearing time, and while some are
contracting at that price most of the wool
men are holding on, with the expectation
that they will get Is or better by the time
the buyers for different firms get upon the
ground. Shearing Is reported to nave COM

the state, but nothing in that line will be
attempted here until the weather is more

Arrest Was Surprise.

The senator had no knowledge that his
arrest had been ordered. and when the
train reached Baltimore he was reading
a newspaper when the conductor of the
Pullman, according to Burke, pointed
him out sitting in the smoking compart-
ment of the car. The policeman said he
told the senator he was under arrest. and
Senator Stone followed him off the car.
He walked across the platform with the
policeman and probably nobody realized
that they were policeman and prisoner.
You are under arrest. said Patrolman
Burke to the senator when he accosted
him.
For WHAT" queried the other.
For assaulting a negro porter on the
car" replied the policeman
Senator Stone was then handed over to
Sergeant Kelly and Patrolman Bull, who
summoned the automobile patrol wagon.
DO you mean to say that l am to be
sent to a police station in a patrol?"
asked the senator.
Yes. sir" replied the officers
1t took only short time for the wagon
to appear. The senator stepped into the
auto and in a few minutes was at the
central station.
Highly indignant he was led up to the
desk. where Lieut.. Cole was sitting.

and Zip went in wading And finally
they went to Muriefs favorite retreat
1t was a cave in a sand bank. Her
father had fixed her fine playhouse
there and she had lovely place for
her dolls. While size and Zip were
taking last look around noise was
heard and a lot of sand came into the
cave Then more and more until it
was quite dark
"Oh, Zip, whatever shall we do?"
cried Muriel, for she knew that It was
a sand slide, as she had been told about
such things happening and warned not
to touch any of the rocks or the sand
above, for fear she might cause it to
fall
"Bow-wow- wow answered Zip.
'Oh, you dear doggie, whatever could
you do? Zip, if we do not get home
soon mamma and papa VIII be wor-
ried about us, because l said would
not stay late Zip, couldn't you go
home and tell them where we are?"
said Muriel.

guage, FOR he was a knowing little
dog, even il lie was cur and under

Half an hour later little black nose
poIed out of the pile Of sand and after
it came a yellow body, which belonged
to no other than Zip. He shook the
sand off and started for home.
There panic prevailed, for Muriel had
never been out so late before Mrs.
Hale went to her room and would see
no one except her husband. He and
some more men were out with lanterns,
searching for the lost child.
Mrs. Hale was lying on couch in
her room when she heard carriage
wheels on the drive All, IL they had
only found Muriell There was a camp
of gipsies not far from the town, and
this only added to Mrs. Hale's dis
comfort. Mr.. Hale came into his wife's
room, looking pale and haggard "Oh.
Benton She gasped, is she dead?y
Il do not know. Alice" answered her
husband. we have found no trace
of her"
Just then a scratching was heard at
the door, Mr.. Hale opened 1t and Zip
came bounding in. First he ran to Mr..
Hale and then to the lady barking.
ZIP said Mr.. Hale, ,can you tell
us where Muriel is?v
Bow WOW wow" Zip answered,
knowingly running to the door.
Mr.. Hale followed him, telling his
wife not TO WORRY.
