Armour, $. d., May 13.-Frank Fiala,
q young mar resident in this city, met
with a serious accident Sunday after
noon. He was engaged in making some
repairs to his bicycle and found 1t nec-
essary to go TO his trunk to secure o

clothes closet, and in the trunk We're

about one and one-half pounds of gum
powder. 1t was necessary for him to
strike a match to see what was In the
trunk, forgetting all about the powder,
The head of the match flew off with the
resulting ignition of the powder. Tho
flames caught him while in a STOPPING
position SO that he received the full
force of the explosion. His face, hands
and neck We're terribly burned, but il
is thought that his eyesight is not

CAPITOL CITY RESOLVES
TO BECOME A CLEAN ONE

Pierre. S. D., May 14.-For some
years with the advent of each newly
elected city council. there has been an
effort OF the part of the health com
mittee to clear up the city, but each
committee each year got no further
than a start. The present health com
mittee. however, began a few years ago
TO do some work which would prove of
some value. Notices were issued and
the word was passed aroun the city
that the committee really meant to
have a cleanup. Alderman Grant Dew
ell. who is the chairman of the health
committee. issued a letter through the
daily newspapers, which in brief stat
ed that no matter who got Sore the
work would be prosecuted without
fear or favor. The alderman has been
giving his personal attention TO the
work, and man city lots which have
been the unslghtly dumping grounds
for all kinds of garbage and refuse:
are despite the strenuous objections
of some of the more negligent owners,
being cleaned up, and in a short time
1t is expected that Pierre will be a
model cleanup" city.

SOUND CATTLE
SHIPPED AWAY
Serious Allegation of a South
Dakota Veterinarian as to
Live Stock.

Sioux Falls, s. d.. May l5.-"South
Dakota Is a dumping ground for dis
eased cattle" asserted DIR. w. O. STAN
ley, former deputy state veterinarian,
commenting on the discovery that %
per cent of the dairy cattle at the state,
penitentiary and state hospital for the
insane were found to have tuberculosiss
1T is probable he said. that cat
tie that cannot pass the rigid examina-
ton OF other states are allowed to come
In here. Likewise, cattle that cannot
be shipped TO other states are consumed
here. | believe that one-fifth TO one,
fourth of the cows OF this state are
affected with disease. Most states have,
quarantine regulations against other
states 10 protect their cattle, but South
Da.-ora has not.
Local butchers in South Dakota
can buy diseased cattle at greatly re-
duced prices and the farmers are glad
to sell stock that could not pass in;
spection at regular markets. Therefore
we must Eat them here or bury them.
From my own experience / have
found that the dairy cattle of the best
breeds are peculiarly susceptible to dis
ease. In Massachusetts, my home
state, three or four years ago, II was
found that 40 per cent of the cattle
were t~ubcrcular, m thousands of dol
lars were spent to alleviate h condi-
tion.
While / was In Sioux City q while
ago, Mr.. Thompson, then United States
Inspector there. told me South Dakota
was sending In a great many tubercuiar
hogs and that many We're being held
up at the yards. These hogs could con-
tract the disease from skim milk. The
condition in South Dakota calls for a
stringent state law and in fact the
situation all over the country requires
national lc.isiation.

Cottonwood, :. D., May 13.-Joshua
Roam Eagle gazed upon his neighborS
squaw and saw hat she was much to
be desired. To be sure Roam Eagle
had a squaw of his own who had borne
him many papooses, but did not the
pale faces. under whose law he lived,
consider affinities much tc be preferred
above mere wives? So he persuaded
his soul mate TO fly with him. But
Joshua Roam Eagle had no such bank
account as is required to finance the
realization Of an affinity and so he cast
about for ways and means OF adding 10
his resources.
He thought OF the horses of Ben
Medicine Eagle, who lived near by, and
how he could take these and sell them
and thus be able to carry away his al
1inity. Consequently he stole six OF
Ben Medicine Eagles best horses and
left his home near the Rosebud and
started northward. One of the horses
was killed by a passing train, two were
sold at Philip and the other two TO
Harry STEINER, of Cottonwood. The
lovers took the train to Rapid City, but
there their dream was interrupted by
q visit from the sheriff. He was sens

roads in Lawrence county to find if
counties may not appropriate from the
general fund for road purposes, a case
in which the whole state is vitality in

The commissioners of Lawrence

than is collected by the special road
tax. ~. I. Mason, who appeared for
the good roads people. argued from a
particular statute that the commits
sioners have authority to appropriate
in addition TO the regular road tax
Judge Rice of the circuit court hello
three weeks ago that the particular
statute on which Attorney Mason based
his case was repealed by subsequent
legislation. passed in 1899. Attorney
Mason is preparing the brief for an APP
peal to the supreme court. in which he
will advance three propositions. He

question was repealed, whether. even If
repealed, It's incorporation in the code
of 1903 did not make it onc more in
force. and, third, will advance his own
Interpretation of the statute. Since
the road tax is limited by law. in Il
number of counties where public sen-
timent would support a larger eXpendi-
ture, it cannot be made unless the

TOWN is THREATENED
THROUGH MANS PIPE

Kadoka, s. D., May IA pipe n a
burning blanket were the causes of a
prairie fire which threatened to wipe
Kadoka out OF existence n to sweep
the entire surrounding region. While
driving home from a business trip to

discovered that a blanket in his buggy

and threw ii out of the buggy to tho
ground, where it set fire to the prairie
grass. A fierce wind was blowing and
the flames were speedily driven toward
Kadoka.

STATE HERDS

Startling Results OF Recent
Tests of Fine Bred Cows
Owned by State.

Sioux Falls, S, D., May 10.-An =
animation recently mace Of the dairy
herds owned by the various state in
situations disclosed conditions that are
certain TO produce a statewide sensa-
ton. All the officials concerned refuse
TO talk for publication, but enough Of
the discoveries made In the tests or the
mich COWS has leaked out to startle.
the public.
AS a courtesy 20 the state, the bureau.
OF animal industry, which is allied with
the agricultural department, consented
to examine the herds at the South Da-
kota institutions and DIR. j. z. Foster,
of Huron, formerly state veterinarian
and now in the federal bureau. was
detailed to conduct the tests.
With an assistant he went over all
the dairy cattle, at the state peniten-
tiary In Sioux Falls, the asylum for the
insane at Yankton. the institute for
the blind at Gary, the reform school
at Plankinton, and the institute for
the feeble minded at Redfeld.
Many Cows Affected.
At the penitentiary, seven out or SO
head were killed as diseased and at
the hospital for the insane IL out of GO
were slaughtered. The -four cows at.
Gary were found TO be healthy. but
the results at aDk1Dl anu ftSulSlu
have not been made known.
In each case the cows slaughtered
proved to be rotten with tuberculosis"
as one Of the witnesses states The sig
niflcance of these examinations grows
out of the unusual care the dairy herds
OF the state institution have received.
and the question is asked how many
ordinary milch cows are healthy II
those receiving unusual attention are in
considerable part diseased. All the
cows killed seemed healthy to the ordi-
nary observer, with sleek hair and
plump sides. IT is understood the
tuberculin test was chiefly employed in
making the examinations and in no.
case did those declared diseased fail to.

The incident is likely TO revive the
agitation IN South Dakota for regula-

1t is a remarkable fact, yet we'll estab-
iished by Nathan Strauss in his inves-
legations OF the subject, that the finer
breed Of the COW and the better her
care. the more susceptible she becomes
TO tuberculosis. AS South Dakota has
been turning more and more to
thoroughbred stock in the last few
years, the condition OF the dairy cattle
OF the state is a source of anxiety TO

There is no question the disease is
