AN Interesting TOOL
IS HANNA'S TROWEL
ESPECIAL to the 1rjbune)


FARGO. N. D.. July 14.-Congress-
man Hanna has a silver trowel with a
record. He is preparing to have it en-
graved and will present it to the
Carnegie library or some institution
in Fargo.
: Some years ago he first used the
trowel in laying the cornerstone of
the Salvation Army. Afterwards Col.
Crockett held it when he laid the
cornerstone of the First Baptist
church.. The next use of it was by
Mr.. Hanna when the initial stone of
the Y. NJ. C. A. was laid. The next
appearance of the trowel was made by
Col. Roosevelt in Fargo last Septem-
ber when he Ofticiated at the cere-
monies of the cornerstone laying of
the new building at Fargo college.
After a brief rest the trowel again
came into prominence at the English
Lutheran church in this city. Its most
recent function was last Sunday, when
it was welded by the man who laid
the cornerstone of the templebeing
erected by the Sons of Norway.
Properly engraved, it will make an
interesting and historic souvenir.

conditions ideal, the machine was
wheeled out into the big open space at
the fair grounds and "cranked up"
Everything was in first class order,
but McGoey did not attempt to fly the
first time down the field, being satis-
fed with merely feeling her out" and
getting his bearings. The second time
the machine was started. however, he
worked the elevator easily and the
aeroplane gracefully rose to a height
of about 40 feet and floated for 100
yards. Then the local aviator see
sawed up and down and skinned
lightly over the surface. sometimes a
few feet up, other times touching and
then shooting to height of Is or 20
feet. When the end of the field was
reached the engine was stopped, the
machine turned around and before the
evenings practice was over seven sue
cessful flights had been made.

Motherall then headed for North Da-
kota, where he will no doubt soon

Eggs Broke, Broke Fan

A load of eggs saved Mrs. Betsie
Dokter, residing near Andover, from
possibly fatal injuries. Mrs. Dokter
was driving to town with twenty dozen
eggs which she intended to market,
when the horse became frightened,
started to run, and overturned the
buggy.
Mrs. Dokter was thrown to the ground,
rendered unconscious, and was revived
with difficulty. She fell on top of the
twenty dozen eggs, which were beauti-
fully scrambled. The physician who
attended her states that, if her fall on
the ground had not beer broken some
what by the eggs, her injuries might
have resulted fatally. AS it was, she
was painfully but not dangerously
bruised.

Another sensation in the bitter strife
waged at Deadwood between the
reform forces under the leadership OF
E. l.. Sem and the Civic league anc
those who oppose changed conditions,
was written at Deadwood with the
alleged exposure of Sem by two of the
newspapers which have been opposing
him.
For months Sem has been fighting
in his newspaper of Deadwood against
vice conditions. exposing some facts
that resulted in the visit Of Attorney
General Johnson in February and the
closing of dance halls. In retaliation,
an outstanding mortgage against ms
paper was called in and with difficulty
met. Both sides used every weapon
that would avail in the attack.
Finally the Deadwood Pioneer Times
and Lead Daily Call published articles
charging openly that Sem had been
guilty of indiscreet conduct The
states attorney wired for Attorney
General Johnson to come TO Deadwood
and investigate the case and says that
should the latter determine upon any
prosecution it will be pushed.
Sem declares editorially: These
papers have heen upholding the lawless
vice of Deadwood and opposing the
efforts of the Telegram for a cleaner
city. II is to be expected that they
would make the most of such an oppor-
tunity at time when public senti-
ment is threatening TO overthrow IN
the city election the interests behind
which the vice OF Deadwood had been
entrenched.
at is obvious that this is not the
proper place for the editor of the Tele-
gram to make his defense. All he
cares TO say now is to assure his
friends that he has not been guilty Of
any criminal act or attempted criminal
act. All otherexplanation are deferred
at this time.
Papers which have made wrong
statements will be dealt with at the
proper time in the proper way. Mean
while the other papers viii do well to
be careful in giving eredenee to the
charges made by these papers and in
giving publicity thereto.
Sem owns a string of newspapers
throughout South Dakota. His failure
to make more definite denial of the
charges against him has alienated many
Of his former admirers there.
