teachers hardly aleviated the crowd.
ed condition and every foot of floor
space was occupied. In room No. /
of the Irving building 70 pupils en-
tered on the first day, three fourths
of whom had never been to school
before.
In the high school there ale al
ready more students than can be seat
ed at one time in the assembly room.
A large proportion of last years stu
dents, together with 81 new entries
brought the first enrolment up to
rs, which is greater than at any time
last year. AS quite a number are
intending to enter in few days the
100 mark will doubtless be passed
this year.
Some inconvenience was caused by
a delay in procuring school books.
This annoyance would have been
greater, however, had it not been for
the untiring efforts of the book store
man, Mr.. Hayes, who finally located
the supplies in an obscure corner of
the Pocatello freight depot.
The football practice will begin at
once with Fred Kiefer as coach. A
team that will cope with any in the
state is anticipated.

degree fran his financial embarrass-

his attention was the returning of the
money which he had taken.
At frequent intervals during the
address the former governor was forced
to falter in his expressions, wiping the
huge tears which continually ccme to
his eyes.
The work of Mr.. Elrod was intensi-
fled by the pleadings of two brothers
of the defendant, together with the
words of United States District Attor-
ney Henning. Chester Mates, a
brother of Otto, who left his old home
to go to South Dakota over 30 years
ago, and has not seen any of his family
during that time, addressed the court
for few moments. He said that his
sole purpose in coming all that distance
was for the purpose of asking clemency
at the hands of the court. Another
brother, Anton, also pleaded for Otto

Both Parties Won.

While the higher courts of the state
would more than likely frown upon the
decision of Justice Gallagher, of Mid
land, in a recent case before him, a
general application of his method of
dispensation of justice would be a
strong reterrent in many cases. 1t
seems that farmer came into Midland
with load of flax. After unloading
he went up town to secure dinner and
other refreshments and on his return.
there appeared to be disagreement
between himself and the elevator man
in regards to settlement for the fax,
the trouble landing them both in court,
After hearing all the testimony of both
sides of the case. Justice Gallagher
decided that both were equally to blame
for the trouble, and he split the fine
and costs between the two, ordering
each to pay half. They paid. and all
is serene on that part of Bad river.

Millionaire Indicted

When it becomes known that the
United States grand jury, which has
just finished its work at Sioux Falls,
returned an Indictment against Charles
l.. Hyde, a millionaire real estate
dealer of Pierre, big sensation will
be created in the central part of the
state, where the defendant is well
known. The indictment charges him
with misuse of the United States mails
and contains three counts. The sub
stance of the counts is that he used
the mails to advertise lots and other
parcels of land and sent maps ano
literature indicating that Pierre had
two streetcar lines, and giving the loss
value in the minds of intending pur.
chasers which they did not possess.
When arraigned before Judge Car.
land in the United States court notice
was given that demurrer to the
indictment will be filed and Mr.. Hyde
was released after furnishing bono
in the sum of $1,000.

United States Court

The jury In the United States court
court at Sioux Falls last week which
heard the evidence in the case of c. A.
Squirting VS.. Dempster Mill Manufac-
turing company, of Nebraska, after
being out for a time returned a verdict
in favor of the defendant company,
The plaintiff sought to recover damages
in the sum of $4,000 for injuries
received by falling down an elevator
shaft in the Sioux Falls branch house
of the company. The case was first
tried nearly year ago, the jury at
that time being unable to agree.
Judge Garland imposed sentences in
the cases of several defendants who
either had entered pleas OF guilty to
indictments against them or had been
convicted by jury of violations of the
federal statutes. Charles Arm and
Howard White Lance, Indians, were
given two years each in the federal
penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kan. /,
Levi Clark, who, for the third or
fourth time, pleaded guilty to the
charge of counterfeiting, was given a
term of three years Leavenworth
and in addition was fined 81, Henry l..
Thompson, of Stanley county, was
sentenced to term of one year and
one day in the Leavenworth peniten-
tiary, and in addition was fined 500:
