CHAMBERLAIN STILL SINGS

The South Dakota poet, Will Cham
berlain, still sings his sweet simple
songs of country life. 1t would be
we'll for the literature of this state if
Chamberlain could give all his time
to the composition of these sweet
sonnets and songs. The latest lines
to follow the shining pathway of his
glorious pen, portraying home life in
the country as SO many of us have
known it, appear under the title Be-
fore Thanksgiving I print it be-
low with the suggestion that my
readers could commit it to memory
with pleasure and profit:
BEFORE THANKSGIVING
The geese are marching gayly
And the ducks plump and fine
There's is the gurgle in the cellar
OF the jugs of family wine
The skies are red at morning
And a golden blue at noon;
We all chat with our neighbors
When Thanksgiying's coming soon.
The little boys are racing
Over snoWess ground with sleds;
They II dream Of hills of whteness
When they're cosy in their beds;
The fame-cheeked hired maiden
Is carving pumpkin up
And mothers whipping lively
Something foamy in a cup.
o, the folks shut in the city,
Do not know the romping feel
When November sets its seal
OF contentment on the harvest
And Sort of nameless tune
Frolics with the rustic spirit
When Thanksgvng's coming soon!

parel and number of little pieces of
fancy work had been left at the Hertz

Thursday evenings This satehel is
thought to have been the property of
the young woman who attempted sui

leaving the satchel and the young wom-

cal. A note was found on one of the
pieces of fancy work in the satchel
asking that it be given to a sister of
the young woman, but it failed to re-
veal the name or address of the sister
or to give any further light on the case.
A collar found in the satchel bore the
mark "P. ?. NJ. J.' and from this it
was supposed that the young woman
had at one time worked at the resi-
dence of DR.. P. p. M. Jorgensen. The
people at the Jorgensen home could not
account for the laundry mark or give
any idea of the identity of the young

this number will be increased before
the end of the month. The principals
will meet late this afternoon to discuss
the problems brought by the opening of
the schools and to arrange to solve any
difficulties IN regard to the proper TAX
ing care of the children.
The opening of the new year brought
many new faces on the teaching force
and all of the teachers were on hand
for the first day of school. The most
notable change was the fact that George
W. Tremper, formerly of Champaign,
ILL.,, succeeded O. s. Thompson as prin-
cipal of the high school. There are al
so a number of new teachers in the
high school.
The newest department of the schools
is the department of music which is
just being opened under the direction
OF Miss Edna Cameron. AS rapidly as
possible the work of teaching music
will be extended to all the grades of
the school,
The business department. of the high
school promises to be decidedly popular
this year and the high school will have
as many students as the various bust
ness schools of the city.
All of the buildings have been put
in first class condition and while it may
be found necessary to use couple of
basement rooms for the next few
months the arrangement will be only
a temporary one.

Beautiful Danish Girl Threat
ems to Commit Suicide at
Foot of South st. Friday
RUNS AWAY FROM THE POLICE
Satchel Left at Rowland Avenue Store
With Messages for Relatives is Sup
posed to Have Belonged to the Miss
ing Woman.

The police of the city have an inter
esting mystery in a search for the
identity of a good looking Danish girl
between 20 and 25 years Of age,
who is alleged to have threatened to
kill herself by jumping into the lake
at the foot Of South street just before
seven o'clock Friday evening.
The young woman stood about the
breakwater for long time until she
aroused the curiosity of people living
in the neighborhood and they gathered
from her that she was simply waiting
until nightfall to end her life in the
lake. The young woman was forcibly
taken from the breakwater and the po-
lice called, but before the patrol wagon
arrived she broke from the people who
had been taking care of her and ran
away and managed to conceal herself
with so much care that the police could
find absolutely no trace Of her.
TO the people who had taken care
of her when the police were called she
refused to give her name or the name
of any of her friends or relatives and
she even hid her face under the shade
of a veil. It is declared that she was
a beautiful young woman and she was
well and fashionably dressed.
While the police were seeking the
young woman word was brought to
them that a satchel containing a num-
ber of pieces of woman s wearing ap-

but the mystery still remains unsolved.

LABOR AGENT
CASE IN COURT

Attorney L. M. Straus made an i'm

this morning for an adjournment in
the case against Gregorio Alvarad0.
who is charged with recruiting labor
ers from Waipahu. He anticipated
an objection to his application and
related to the court that he bad only
been retained yesterday. that his eli
ent had not been given chance to
see about procuring counsel before
then, and that as the prosecution had
between thirty-eight and forty wit
uesses to put on the stand he was not
in a position to go ahead with the
case then and there.
Attorney M. F. Prosser, of Kinney,
Prosser, Anderson & Marx, strenu-
ously objected to the proposed con-
tinuance. He pointed out that the
prosecution had brought down TWEEN
ty-two witnesses from Waipahu ar
considerable expense and inconven-
fence and were ready for trial.
The court set the case for the AFT
ernoon.
