CarI ThieI Opens in
 Big Blaze ot Glory

One of the biggest openings recorded in the camp was that celebrated last Saturday night at Discovery, Otter, when Carl Thiel, the poolroom king, broke in the windows of his new ad- dition and fed the populace on punch.
 Spectators declare that at least 400 people visited the resort during the evening and listened to the Berggren & Drake orchestra and the singing. Be sides the musical stunts there was a sparring exhibition between Kid Ross and Felix Seppi, who met at Flat two weeks ago, and a wrestling match be- between George Shaw and Jack O'Connor.
 The Thiel poolrooms now cover space 55x30 feet, with four tables lul- ming at full blast all the time. Soft drinks and cigars are on the card at any time, together with the latest canned opera.

DAKOTA EXPRESS RATES CUT.
Federal Judge Refuses to Enjoin Put.

Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept. Son the
basis that evidence submitted by the
Wells Fargo Express company failed
to show it was not earning percent
on the investment, which the COM
pany claimed to be its assessable val
ue in South Dakota, Judge G. A. Will
lard declined to enjoin the railroad
commission of that state from enforc-
ing the new schedule of rates worked
out in accordance with the direction of
the last state legislature.
An amusing feature of the case was
the fact that on July rs last, the same
company, represented by Bailey &
Voorhees,, attorneys of Sioux Falls, ap'
peared before Judge Willard asking
relief from a tax assessment Of $171,
900 made by the state and at that time
swore that it's assessable property in
the state did not exceed $4,000 II
value, consisting of horses, trucks ant
other paraphernalia, and that, aside
from these articles, its true valuation
did not exceed $4,000.
Judge Willard ruled in the presen
case that this property might there

ance with the precedents which hav,

Were These Bank Robbers?

Dallas, S. d., Sept. Especial to
The News: A farmer from near Co
lima, in Trip county, brought the re-
port to Dallas that while his son was
out hunting he was stunned by an eX-
plosion of terrific force and when he
gathered himself together after this
explosion he saw two men who had
number of sticks or tubes which he
did not thoroughly understand, but
which from his description are sup
posed to have been dynamite. He
said that the men called him to them
and talked very freely and displayed
a sack full of gold pieces, currency
and some silver.
From his description of the size OF
the bundle of currency there must
have been several thousand dollars
and the large sack was nearly full OF
gold with Just little silver. One OF
the men told the other man to give
the boy a handful of the money, but
the other one said, "No, this will be
enough for him." and tossed him S,
gold piece and ordered him to take l,
and go into the brush south of them
When he had gone for some distance
they mounted their horses and rode
west.
No trace has ever been found o.
them since that time and while it was
thought to have been bank robbers
there has been no report of banl
having been robbed The matter, how
ever, is being investigated.
