living near Memo. The four, whose
names are Walter and Arthur Heiser,
Edward Eberhardt and Leonard
Weighe, were arrested by Sheriff Mey-

justice entered pleas Of guilty. They
were each required to pay fine and
costs amounting to 1892, or an aggre-
gate of $137.2S. Their arrest was
brought about In an unusual manner.
A dog belonging to Edward Swanson
a farmer, had been shot, and in seek
ing the parties who had done the shoot
ing he espied these four young men,
and, believing the shooting had been
done by them, swore out complaint
charging them with hunting without a
license. There was no evidence tend
ing to show that they were the ones
who had shot Swanson's dog.

INDIAN AGENCY WILL
HAVE INVESTIGATION

Pierre, s. D., March 29.--For several
years there have been rumors of trouble
at Crow Creek Indian agency. and
charges Of different kinds In regard to
the management have been floating.
Several Investigations have been made,
resulted until this week. When
Inspector Allen, after putting in
several months, has placed Spec
ial Agent G. L. Ellis in charge.
The principal complaints appear to
have been in the way Of claims OF fav-
oritism in disposal of property. Since
the change. Special Agent Ellis has sent
out circular letter In which he says:
"All parties are hereby notified that
the penalties Of sections 2137 and 213S
Of the Revised Statutes Of the United
States, will be imposed IL live stock is
sued by the government, the issue
thereof or the hides therefrom are
found In their possession, or have
passed through their hands. without
being accompanied by the proper per-
NIT from the agent.
Property Of all kinds which is pur-
chased from trust funds derived from
sale of allotment Of lands. Ia also
held In trust, and cannot be conveyed
| or encountered. Whenever any such
parties without authority therefore, II
must be returned to this agency, or
Information given as to where 1t can
be found, or suit will be recommended
for Its recovery in the United States
court"
The placing Of a special agent in
charge undoubtedly means a thorough
and getting down to the bottom of all
charges, to find whether they are mere
talk, or have foundation enough on
which to take action.

COURT RENpERs DECISION
FOR OLD WATER COMPANY

Sioux Falls, 8. D., March 29.--An-
other chapter has just been written in
the long drawn out litigation between
the city OF Sioux Falls and the old
water company, by q decision OF Judge
Garland, OF the United States court,
bearing on amounts claimed to be due
from the old company to the city, and
amounts claimed by the company to
be due from the city.
For the period when the city was
prevented by an injunction from COM
plotting q municipal waterworks sys-
TEN, the injunction having been Sc
cured by the old water company, Judge
Garland allows the city damages at
the rate of per cent interest On the
money invested in the city watsfworks
plant for the period Of II months that
the injunction was. in force, the !, sum
Invested being flxed at 100000. The
sum allowed the city In interest and
damages will aggregate about $4,000,
this including the cost Of the injunc-
ton suit.
Judge Garland also allows the re-
coiver Of the old water company to re-
cover for hydrant rentals, service for
street sprinkling and city fountains,
for period extending from January 1,
1901, to February 15, 1907, an amount
reaching approximately 100000. De-
Quoting the sum allowed the city, this
will leave a balance In favor Of the old
water company Of something between
$4,000 and $4,000. It is believed this
decision will be satisfactory to both
parties interested, thus ending the
litigation after II had been pending for
q number OF years.

HONOR Their DEAD
Impressive Ceremonies by the
Rock Island Elks Held at
Memorial Christian.
ADDRESS BY w. A. MEESE
Bond of Brotherhood Strengthened
by FraternaI Ties Shown to Be
Uplifting Influence.

Impressive and beautiful memoir
ial services in honor Of their de-
parted brethren were held yesterday
afternoon by Rock Island lodge of
Elks at Memorial Christian church,
Third avenue and Fifteenth street.
The main address was by w. A.
Meese, a member of the lodge in
Moline. He spoke of fraternalism
in general and of the Elks in par
ticular. aiming to show that it is a
feeling of brotherhood that counts
rather than a feeling of fellowship.
He took the growth of civilization,
of religion, as an Illustration. In
the early years it was not sufficient
for men to be fellow theologians. for
while this condition existed there
was constant dissension. Presently
when it came to be understood that
there was but one God, although He
was known by different names, the

AT THE Y. M. C.. A.

The. Sunday club at the Y. NJ. c. A.
had another fine meeting yesterday
afternoon. This club is a Sunday aft
emoon meeting conducted by the
younger men. and open to all men, for
the discussion of topics of cur
rent interest. Rev. l. o. Nothstein led
the discussion yesterday, on the
theme of Crime and It's Punishment"
He gave a clear and comprehensive
statsme of some of the weaknesses
and evils in our present penal sys-
tenn, pointing out the dangers to so
ciety in the present methods of trials
by jury and punishment by imprison-
ment. The meeting was attended and
enjoyed by a good company of young
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1910-12-05

A number Of the senior members Of
the association will meet tonight 10
organize a club for practice in public
speaking. Twenty men have signi-
fed their intention to be present at
the supper at $50, and TO help in
starring the club. It is the intention 10
form 8 strong organization which will
combine social enjoyment with help
full practice il the art of public speak
ing. Tomorrow evening there will be
the regular meeting of the young
mems bible class to study their les
son N the book Of Acts. There are
now II members in this class. and
new ones are being added almost ev-
cry week. The class is open to all
young men.
At Waukegan H., a campaign was
started today to raise $50. 600 for a Y.
NJ. C.. A. building. There is no asso-
citation in that city at present, but
one is to be organized, and the new
home provided for it. F. s. Shepard,
formerly secretary AT Peoria, has
charge of the campaign. At the pres
ent rate all the associations In Illinois

brotherhood idea came into exist
ence and with it came greater peace
and happiness and swifter ad-
vancement of civilization.
FraternnI Orders Appear.
Union of governments, said the
speaker, proved strong, unions of
societies also were strong, but Meth
er could compare with a union of in<
dividual power such as occurs in the
formation of fraternal societies Mr.
Meese said that the fraternal feeling
in this country came into being at
the close of the civil war when the
victorious soldiers of Grant mixed
and hobnobbed with the conquered
men under Lee. From then on fra
ternal or secret orders began and
ever since they have been a power
for good. They serve more than one
purpose, too, claims the speaker. In
their lodge rooms citizens are
schooled for the part they have to
take in public or private life, but
greater than this is the spirit of
charity fostered and developed by
the different orders. 1t is variously
estimated that during the nineteenth
century the fraternities of this
county expended one and one-auar-
ter billions of dollars for charitable
purposes alone, showing what a ire
mendous power they are for the up
lifting of men.
Record of the EIIks.
Mr.. Meese's record of the Benevo-
lent and Protective Order of Elks in
cluded the following points. The
order was formed Feb 16. 1858.
Charles A Vivian. who came to this
country from England, being gener-
ally acknowledged to have been its
father. The Englishman was in the
habit Of gathering a little circle
about him at a tavern and there
making merry with songs and stOr-
les. Some one conceived the idea
that the little club. which was first
known as the Jolly Court, be made
permanent and this was done by the
formation of the 'Elks." The organ
ization grew from a dozen or so
members until now it has a member
ship of over 100000. The watch
words of the order are charity, JUS
tice, brotherly love and fidelity.
Opening of Lodge.
After an organ prelude by Frank
w. Freistat, the lodge and the cere-
mony was formally opened by Elk
allied Ruler r. r. Reynolds. The
audience united with the Elks in
singing the lodge hymn and then
Rev. E. T. Mcfarland offered pray
er. vocal duet by Miss Grace NJ.
Ames and Harry Dawson preceded
the address by Mr.. Meese and then
came a selection by the Arion quar-
tet, consisting of Harry Dawson, Ar
thur Jonassen, J. G.. Hazard and w.
c. Caulpetzer. Robert Rexdale read
a eulogy and Miss Ames sang a solo,
after which ]. c. Dunn read Than
atopsis.'' After two more musical
numbers, a song by the quartet and
a solo on the organ by Mr.. Freistat,
the lodge was closed and the cere-
monies concluded.

Tells How to Make a Pint
of Laxative Cough Syr-
up Very Cheaply
at Home.

The reason that most all
cough syrups are ineffective is
that the ordinary preparations
are very constipatiug and af-
ter a while they aggravate the
congestion and bring on fever
and pneumonia. To avoid
pneumonia the bowels should
be laxative and the cough will
soon be overcome.
The finest acting. most
pleasant tasting and laxative
cough syrup can be made at
home by any one. Obtain from
well stocked druggist 212
ounces of essence mentho-lax-
enc, empty it into a pint bot
tie. Make a syrup with a pint
of graduated sugar and a half
pint boiling water; stir and
let cool. Then fill up the bot
tie with syrup. Shake it we'll
and take a teaspoonful every
hour or two until the cough
is cured. This is the quickest
acting and surest cough rem
edy ever conceived. All whole
sale druggists and most retail
druggists sell essence mentho-
laxene.
