In the last series in Philadelphia where

SOUTH DAKOTA town
DESTROYED BY FIRE
{By Associated Press.)


WatertOWn, s. D., Jan. 4.-The town
of Castlewood, eight miles south of
here, narrowly missed being wiped out
by fire Of unknown origin this even
ing during heavy windstorm. The
entire south side Of Main street is in
ashes, entailing a loss estimated to-
night at $1S0,0o0, about half insured.
Twelve buildings are gutted and fire
did not stop until the last building
on that side Of the street was de-
stroyed.
The fire started in Miller's hard
ware store, and famed by the high
wind, spread rapidly.
Messages came to this city asking
for aid and thirty men with fire ap-
,paratus responded on a special train.
When four buildings we're gone at
tempts were made to check the
flames by dynamiting the stores but
the wind carried the flames over the
ruins and continued to spread.
At late hour tonight the fire had
burned itself out on the extreme edge
of Main street.

and $1,000 a week on his present tour

that he and Berger have not been

Chicago, to put on their sparring ex'
hibitions, exactly the same exhibi-
tion to which no objection was made
when they toured the vaudeville and

This golden harvest for Johnson's s

the ground that the management did
not comply with the laws.
The Injunction was issued by Cir

Miss Werner was aroused at mid

Kansas City, Jan. 4.-Geo. Rey'

were found guilty tonight by a jury
of assaulting Mrs. w. F. Jackson
and their sentence was fixed at death

The verdict was found on the first

hearing the evidences and returning
a verdict. Both men probably will
hanged the first week in February.
Every precaution has been taken

not admitted to the trial. Mrs.
Jackson swooned while testifying.
Prisoners in the county jail raised
g. bedlam when the verdict became
known. They had previously
threatened to lynch the negroes in
the exercise room of the Jail, but the

French AVIATOR
DASHED10DEA7h


Bordeaux, Jan. 4.-Leon Delagrange,
French aviator, whose achievements
during the last two years had won
for him high place among those
who have set out to conquer the air,
was instantly killed here today while
making fight in the presence of a
great crowd of spectators.
A strong, uncertain wind prevailed,
but with characteristic daring, Del
agrange faced it in the same mono
plane in which he made a record OF
SO miles an hour at the Doncaster
meeting last October.
He circled the aerodrome, seeming
to have his machine under good con-
trol, and yet at times it heeled dan
gerously to the wind. On the third
round, at a height Of between sixty
and seventy feet, he increased his
speed. He swung wide at the turns,
but at the lower end of the aero
drome, he attempted to describe a
sharp curve. The machine was seen
to sway. The left wing was broken
and the right wing Immediately COL
lapsed. The aeroplane came plung-'
ing down to the earth, and it turned
half over when it fell, with the avia-
tor clinging to the seat. In this way
it crashed to the ground, with Della
grange beneath, the heavy motor
crushing out his life.
The machanicaians are at a loss to
explain the exact cause OF the acci-
dent.

By Associated Press)
WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-War without
quarter will be waged between the
Taft administration and such repub-
lican "Insurgents" in congress as are
now opposing, and who oppose In the
future, the Taft legislative program.
The battle is not with those tarih
insurgents who quietly sheathed their
blades after defeat, but with those
who have nursed disappointment and
are whetting their knives publicly in
anticipation Of continued conflict.
Battle Broke Suddenly
The battle broke suddenly today.
At first it was single shot; then
scattered firing; swiftly the thing
spread until tonight it has taken on
the aspects Of a general engagement
the consequences of which cannot be
foretold. The substance of it is, that
the senators and congressman who
have taken a stand against the pres
ent administration and who continue
to align themselves with the opposi-
ton to the presidents policies are to
receive no consideration in matters
of patronage.
Utterances such as that made by
Senator Cummins at recent dinner
in Des Moines. by Senator Bristow in
previous speeches, anti-Taft articles
in Senator LaFollette's magazine,
and a recent interview by Senator
Clapp on the price of foodstuffs are
said to have stirred the president to
action. It had been reported further
that some of the republican insur.
gents in the house have tried to Sc
cure appointment under the admin
istration of men more or less open
ly out Of harmony with the Taft re-
gime.
Listens to Friends Advice.
Mr.. Taft's. closest friends advised
him that it would be impolitic for
him to afford sinews of war to those,
who, they warned him, might even
cooperate with the democrats in
congress against the Taft legislative

No politician who would discuss
the situation at all tonight dared
hazard an opinion as to the political
outcome Of the contest. Some in
sisted that it would arouse bitter
opposition to President Taft, while
others declared that the effect
would be to make all republicans

Miller Touched 1t on.
Representative Miller of the Eighth
Minnesota district was the man
chiefly instrumental in "Blowing the
lid of" Of the situation today. He
did it by statement to the effect
that Postmaster General Hitchcock
had informed him yesterday that his
(Miller's) recommendations for pres
idential postmasterships were being
held up because Of his insurgent ac-
tivities in the house.
He quoted the postmaster general
as saying in substance:
"A great deal of pressure is being
brought to bear upon me to withhold
from the insurgent republican con-
gressmen the patronage in their dis
tricts. 1 am very loath to do this,
