and he seemed perfectly rational. He
was crying most of the time he was on
the stand. He said his wife was an
excellent cook and housekeeper and she
was good woman in every way and
if it was within his power he would
like to have everything the way it was
before the shooting
There is still great danger that Mrs.
Christoffersen may not recover. She
has a temperature near l05 and an in
termittent pulse of 9S. She is slightly
better this afternoon but not as well as
yesterday. DR.. Emmert says it will be
two or three days before he can give
any hope of her recovery, though she
may pull through She is so years of
age and her husband was 73. Her body
was found to have been bruised and
beaten and shot entered one arm, in,

Young MAN Severely cut.

Halloween night while several men
living east of Hamlin were making their
rounds of fun and frolic they made a
stop at the home of Clint Rice and had
succeeded in putting his buggy up on
the straw stack, and were in the act of
hiding the lap robes of some parties who
were visiting with Mr.. X. and wife.
when out came Clint and his male com
pany. The raiders then began making
their get way and in doing so one of
the young meni ran into barb wire
fence completely destroying his wearing
apparel and cutting his face severely.
One of the cuts was bad one as 1t
runs crosswise Of his mouth disabling
him from partaking of several of his
meals, besides causing him much suffer
ing. Should he catch cold in it or blood
poisoning set in, it may prove very
serious to the young man.

Were Happily Surprised.

The beautiful country home of Mr..
and Mrs. W. J. Campbell was the scene
of much merriment Sunday Nov. 5th,,
when NJ f. Kerwin, T.. B. Kerwin,
August johnson and John Stuart. to-
gether with their families went out to
the Campbell home to remind him that
it was his 10th, birthday. Mr.. Camp
bell assured his party that although
many winters had come and gone since
he was boy, yet he felt as young and
frisky as he did when he was married,
some twenty-five or three years ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. Campbell provided plenty
of entertainment for their guests and
they all had a royal good time. That
they may live to enjoy the fellowship of
their friends for many years to come, is
the wish of large circle offriends.

A Word OF Praise For cosson.

Citations might be multified to show

DIR. Williams Views.

DIR. Henry Smith Williams in Ladies'
Home Journal:-It appears then that
the aggregate net result of sixty years
of temperance legislation is that the
average American of today consumes
almost six times as much liquor as did
the average American of 1850 The re-
deeming feature of the case is that the
average man now drinks vastly more
beer and relatively less spirits; but this
change is not one for which Prohibition
can be responsible. Ii il obvious that
in an attempt to evade prohibition laws
the more condensed spirits will tend to
take the place of the more bulky ones.

Some Corn In South Dakota.

Amos Andersen last evening informed
the writer that his sons, Anderson Bros,
on the farm four miles north of Dell
Rapids, had just finished picking the
biggest corn crop they ever raised. One
field of fortv-five acres gave them
seventy two bushels TO the acre. If
there is any more convincing argument
that this section of country is essentially
a corn country, or that it pays to give
closer attention to scientific corn -aising,

Charles A. White Believes All the

Lorimer Were Bribed.

Cross Examination.
SOME REPUBLICANS ALSO

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-To his
to vote for Lorimer, Charles A. White,
former member of the Illinois legis'
lature, today added, for the benefit of
the senate Lorimer committee, that he
believed every one Of the fifty-thrce
Democrats who voted for Lorimer did
30 for money consideration. He
added that he thought some of the Re.
publicans who voted for Lorimer got
money for so doing.
White declined to mention the names
of any Republicans he suspected, ''be-
cause it is Just q matter of opinion and
/ do not want to do an injustice to
anyone
He said he based his opinion of
Wholesale corruption on the fact that
he was bribed and others had con-
fessed the same.
All day White was ross-examined by
Attorney Hanecy, representing Lor-
inner.
White declared that the record in the
first Lorimer investigation was, wrong

said White. He added that he might
have turned his manuscript over to
Lorimer for $4,000 because that
amount might have been all the evil
