FALLS AND
BUR|ES AUTOMOBILES
FIFTEEN MACHINES OF SIOUX
FALLS COMPANY ARE COVER
ED WITH DEBRIS AT A LOSS
OF $4,000.

Sioux Falls, s.. D.-Wtih a crash
that was heard all over the business
section of the city the second story
floor of the building on Main avenue
between eighth and Ninth streets oc.
cupied by the Sioux Falls Auto and
Supply company collapsed at 1890
this morning and buried at least if
teen new automobiles in tons of
wreckage.
None of the attaches of the auto
mobile company were in the place at
the time or there would undoubted-
ly have been fatalities. Immediate
ly after the crash, Dan Struh, of the
Chicago House, next door to the gar
age, hurried to the scene and sent
for the police, who in turn called the
fire department. No fire had started,
however, and watchmen we're left on
guard to await daylight before any
attempt could be made to clear away
the debris.
The second story of the building
was used by the Mortenson Furniture
company as a warehouse. Heavy
stoves and massive furniture were
stored on this floor and it appears
that too much weight was entrusted
to the timbers which supported the
structure. Originally built for a liv-
cry barn, the building was not brac-
ed below for very heavy load on the
upper floor
Timbers were forced through the
outer brick wall and one of the QUITO
mobiles was driven through the main
floor by the terrific impact of the ov-
erladen upper floor.
H. F. Brownwell, Of the Sioux Falls
Auto and Supply company, stated last
night that the loss sustained by his
company would be impossible to ac-
curately estimate at that time, but
it is believed that it will reach in the
neighborhood of s30,O00.00. wheth-
er the insurance policies Of the auto
mobile company v damages Of
this peculiar nature is not known.
The losses Of the Morteson Furni-
ture company could not be ascertain
ed last night. but it is undoubtedly
heavy.

R CLUB

The last of the series of Domestic
Science" evening of the Art Club was
held last Monday at the home OF Mrs.
H. II. Edwards. The topic for study
was French Cooking. A specific
study of fish, sauces and salads oc-
cupied, the lesson period, each of
which was followed by informal talks
and impromptu discussions. The
various little idiosyncracies of the
French cooking which makes it so
world famous were taken up, to-
gether with a comparison OF meth
DDS of preparation and service used
in our own country, with those used
in France.
One of the members, Mrs. Sid w.
Smith, having spent some time in that
country was able to furnish the club
with many personal "reminiscences.
The lesson which las conducted
by the hostess, was exceptionally in
structive and despite the fact that
the weather was warm and, the club
year near an end, practically the en-
tire membership was present and
there were no indications of waning
in their usually ardous work
exhibited.
AT the conclusion of the study
period, Mrs. Edwards served the
club with a most tempting luncheon,
demonstrating the previous talk, and
the French manne of serving. She
was assisted by Mrs. w. A. Heinz
berger.
The club year will close next Mon
day evening with a business meet
ing at the home of Mrs. F. II. Winsor.

DELTA RHo-ALETH1AN PICNIC

At about 9 o'clock Monday norm
ing the Delta Rho and Alethian Lit
erary Societies were cen leaving
Graham Hall in a coach and bus for
Tobin's Park at the river. AS the
wheels rolled over the road beyond
the city and down into the valley, the
sun dispelled the dense clouds of tho
morning and gave to the jolly pic
nicers an ideal day in every sense.
After a variety of amusements
from croquet to boating and to prac-
ticing baseball for the afternoon
game, and after DIR. and Mrs. Seaton
had Joined the company, a sumptu-
Gus picnic dinner satisfied the appe-
titles of all. Again the sport of the
forenoon were taken up, with the
addition of tennis and a baseball
game between the Alethians and the
Delta Rhos-the latter being limited
to the use of the left hand, only. At
ter a spirited contest of several in
nings the girls gave up the game
when the boys were slightly in the
lead.
When evening had come and the
evening picnic meal had been serv-
ed on the river bank, the merry
group prepared to take their depar-
ture. Songs, society yells. and
cheers were entered into with a
hearty spirit in the bome-going and
when the party dispersed it vas with
the feeling that this would. be a
long remembered event in connec-
ton with their life and work at Da-
kota Wesleyan.

TWO CLASSES
OF AUTOMOBILES
Possible For One Car to Win
Three Prizes in the
Floral Parade.

The veXing question of where to
divide automobiles into two classes
occupied most of the time of the auto
committee of Floral Parade at its
meeting this morning, but after con
sulting f. Il. Bodge of the von-lIamm
Young Company, il was decided that
all cars OF twenty-five horsepower
and under should form one class and
all those of over twenty-five horse
power should form the other.
Last year there were three classes,
but as the change in models has been
so great, 1t is now almost impossible
to draw the line strictly between Il
runabout and roadster, and between
runabout and touring car so that
1t was decided the, horsepower
classification was the only one to
which there could be no objection.

News Received Here That
Prince Rupert Charter
Is Given Up.

News was received from Seattle
yesterday that the excursion of North
west business men to this city next
month has been abandoned. Accord
ing to the report. the excursion has
been called off because of lack OF
sufficient booking to enable the pro-
moters to make the trip at profli
The steamer Prince Rupert was
held under option of charter by the
promoters. The news received local
ly Is to the effect that the steamer
was released by the promoters on
January IA, and will return to its re-
gular run from Seattle to Prince Ru-
pert early in the spring.
In anticipation of the excursion to
Hawaii the steamer has been under
going extensive interior improve
ments at Vancouver, B. G. A number
of staterooms were converted into
suites, bathrooms we're remodeled and
cabins redecorated. However, this
will not be lost, as the Prince Ru-
Seattle, run is largely an excur-
sion trip anyway.
When the excursion was first pro
posed, the prospects were for biz
success. Then came the uncertainty
about visiting Hilo. due to customs
regulations. Another source of dis
content among the eXcurnists was
that they were unable to take steam
er from Seattle direct but would have
to go to Vancouver. B. c., and there
board the steamer, owing to the coast
wise shipping laws.

JUDICIARY BUILDING ON
LEGISLATIVE APPROPRIATION

Governor Frear stated this morning
that If the next session of the Territo-

should make an appropriation sufficient
to pro ide for the remodeling of the
Judiciary building.
IAN appropriation for that purpose is
essential" said the Governor, 'and Wilt
be one of my strong recommendations

roof and floor of the building are ready
to fall in but the walls are in the best
of condition. The old walls can be used
again to good advantage"

Less machinery and more progress
in the affairs of the Territorial Cow
ernment'
This is the policy that will be urg-
ed upon the next session Of Legisla-
ture by Governor Frear, outlining his
ideas in this regard this morning.
The Governor believes that for the
next two years the administrative ma
chinery of the Territorial Govern
ment should be cut down to the low
est possible minimum consistent with
efficiency and that all the resources
of the Government be directed to-
ward the extension of the conserya-
tion scheme and general development
work.
1t is expected that a surplus Of
about 100000 will be available at the
end of the present fiscal period AM
