Sturgis, N. D., Aug. Preparing
to plead accidental shooting, Mrs.
Michael McMahon, who shot and killed
David p. Thomas, an attorney, today,

wood to defend her and will make a
hard legal fight for her freedom. The
coroners inquest was held this after
noon, byt Mrs. McMahons preliminary
hearing will not be held until Thurs

Mrs. Mcmahon says that since the
death OF her husband who had taken
Thomas as his law partner, she has
been unable either to obtain possession
OF the building where the offices are To-
Gated and the law library and furni-
ture, or to collect rent. She had been
advised that II she obtained possess
sion of the building she could hold It.
Early today she borrowed a revolver,
but asserts she only intended to bluff
Thomas into leaving the building. She
went to the office and after trying to
get a settlement drew her gun and or
dered him from the building. Thomas
laughed and refused and turned back
in his chair. There was a flash and
Thomas fell dead, with bullet wound
through his head, the ball having en-
tered the corner of his left eye.

BITTER ATTACK
MADE ON GOMPERS

Denver, Colo, Aug. 1.-President
Meyer of the Western Federation OF
Miners, who was once called an unde-
sirable citizen by Theodore Roosevelt,
has made a bitter attack on Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, declaring his re-
tirement would be a blessing to the
working classes. Other members OF
the miners federation have also at
tackled Gompers. Neither Gompers
nor the American Federation OF Labor
can turn us from the policy to which
we are pledged-industrial union and
concerted action in politics" said
Meyer, in urging the executive boards
report on the referendum vote, which
commended afiliation with the Amer
lean Federation OF Labor. I'VE can
help change the policy of the fedora
ton II it is wrong after we have affili-
ated with it. Gompers should be re-
tired on a pension"

ExPEcTED

The summer school at the North
Dakota Agricultural college Of Fargo
opened this morning with an attend
ance of over 100. which it is expected
will be increased to fully ITS by the
end of the first ten days, as many
who have registered have not yet ar
rived.
This Is an excellent start, according
to the instructors. and they believe
rl1ey will have one OF the best. terms
in the history Of the summer schools
of the state.
One OF the instructors stated that
nearly every county in the state would
be represented in the school. Those
in attendance as students have entered
into their work with great vim and
enthusiasm, and the prediction is that
their efforts will be crowned with sue
cess.
THE school has hardly got started"
said Professor McArdle this afternoon,
but we have the utmost confidence
in saying that there will be a larger
attendance than was ever known be-
fore. The teachers all over the state
are beginning to appreciate the fact
that there is great deal to be learned
at these summer training schools, for
we give them the very best of oppor-
tunities. Wetare very much gratified
over the showing that has been made. =

COLONEL'S TALK
CHANGED PLANS
RoOSEVELTS SPEECH KEPT
KITCHENER FROM BEING
SENT TO EGYPT AS
CONSUL GENERAL.

London, Aug What does the
government intend to do with Lord
kitchener" asked your correspondent
Of a well informed official at Whitehall
today. ---.... .s
IT give 1t up" was the reply, But"
added the official, "did you know that
Lord Kitchener nearly went to Egypt
to take Sir Eldon Gorst's place as
British diplomatic agent and consul
general? 1t is a fact"
And why did he not go?'
"Mr. Roosevelt upset the arrange
ment; everything had been arranged;
the post had been offered to Kitchener
and he had accepted 1t, when Mr..
Roosevelt in his Guildhall speech laid
down a course Of action for Egypt. So
the government decided, at least for
present, to keep Kitchener at home.
This decision, Of course, was due to
the fact that the government did not
wish to Jump at Mr.. Roosevelt's plan
of sending a man Of blood and iron
to Egypt"
$50 you cannot tell what work will
be found for the great soldier?"
mo; he might be sent to CONSTANT
nople as ambassador, for we need a
strong man there. England has been
losing ground with the Young Turks
for several months. The triple alliance
has been running things there.
"As a matter of fact" suddenly said
the official, Lord Kitchener is not
keen on work and seems content to
rest on his laurels. He has conceived
a passion for collecting bric-a-brac
and talks about this most of the time.
He went to India mainly because the
task was a picturesque one without
much real responsibility. He will wake
up only IL a great war comes"
'"will Sir Eldon Gorst be recalled
from Egypt?"
"Oh, yes, It is only matter of time"

o. q. coLoUITT,

Austin, Tex, Aug. both prohi-
bitionists and -prohibitionists won
in the democratic primaries in Texas.
The anti prohibition organization nom
mated it's candidate, G. B. Colquitt,
for governor by probably 10000 plural
ity, and the prohibitionists, according
to the count Of votes so far made, car
ried the proposition Of statewide pro-
hibition by a large majority.
The proposition as voted upon Is to
make 1t obligatory on the part Of the
legislature to submit to vote Of the
people proposed constitutional
amendment providing for statewide
prohibition.
The state convention. which is to
meet at Galveston Aug. 10, must make
this demand a part of the platform.
1t is rumored Mr.. COlquitt will re-
fuse to accept this statewide prohibit
ton feature of the platform, and in
that event it is said the prohibition
element of the party will put out an
Independent candidate for governor.
But for the fact that there were two
prohibition candidates in the field for
governor that faction of the party
would have also won that feature of
the contest bv a large majority.
Sen. ]. w. Baileys candidate. Will
liam Poindexter, is the third man in
the race for governor, Cone Johnson
occupying second position and running
in the lead in many parts of the state.
r. " Davidson, former attorney gen.
eral, who made the race for governor
on his record as a trust buster and
in having collected a fine of $1,6S0,0O0
from the Waters Pierce Oil Co, driv-
ing that corporation out of Texas for
violating the antitrust laws, is the
fourth man, as shown by incomplete
returns. s..
The prohibition democrats are re-
ported to have a two-thirds majority
Iof the legislature, which will give them
plain sailing in anti-saloon Legislation
despite the fact that the nominee fol
governor is an -prohibitionist
Bascom Thomas is nominated lieu
tenant-governor by a large majority
His principal opponent was A. B. Da-
wilson, who sought reelection.
Davidson took leading part in ex-
polling Thomas from the senate two
years ago because the latter had made
public charges that members OF that
body were influenced by lobbyists in
| legislative acts.
Chairman Allison Mayfield Of the
railroad commission is renominated.
Bob Parker is nominated for comp
troller; Sam Parks, for treasurer, and
J. P. Lightfoot for attorney general.

The state fair is a thing Of the
past and all that is left is a pleasant
memory Of lively scenes and interesting
exhibits. 1t was midnight before the
lights went out Saturday night and
even after that hour many exhibitors
and showmen remained to pack up.
The evolutions of the militia at the
fair Saturday afternoon and evening
were certainly a treat to a majority
of the big crowd which witnessed
them. The throng in the grandstand
watched anxiously all afternoon for
the troops to appear on the paddock
and when the band marched across
the track and the infield and took
post on the north side and at the ex-
treme west end Of where the regi-
mental line was to form and began
playing, a great cheer went up.

tary offenses and sentenced him to dis

Atty. Edward Engerud appeared
for Mr.. Poole, and said that the pro-

EXCLUSIVE COLONY CLUB DANES
INcENSED AT CRITICISM
FROM THEIR EXcLU-
SIVE DOCTOR,

New York, Aug. 1.-The Colony club
the wealthiest and most exclusive wo-
mems club in America, is in the throes
of internal strife for the second time
in a year over revelations of drinking
and cigarette smoking among its mem
bers. DR.. Eugenia Hancock, for six
years physician at the Hotel Martho
Washington and now the regular at
tendant upon the bulk of the members
OF the Colony club, has laid herself
open to ostracism from fashionable
patronage. DR.. Hancock, in an inter-
view, said the women of New York
were drinking and smoking themselves
into insane asylums and living such
unhealthy lives that their children
were destined to be degenerates be-
fore they were born.
The woman physician, warming to
her subject, said:
"All of the fashionable women that
I know have the cigarette habit. Col
lege girls are taking up the cigarette
habit. Business women smoke. OF
course, there is a well known fact thar
there have been many inveterate
smokers among society women for
years. At the Colony club cigarettes
are regularly passed around after
meals.
1.-The foolish society woman thinks
she is a good sport when she becomes
half intoxicated and smokes cigar
cites, so she learns to drink whisky
and beer and cocktails. Her nervous
condition becomes shattered and she
resorts to drugs. Poor silly creatures!
They do not even respect the Sabbath,
but continue their dinners and their
dancing, thus breaking the great Am
erican tradition Of the Sabbath's
sanctity."

From her friendship with many meme
bers Of the club, she has come TO b.
