MANY FLOCKING
FROM MEXICO
TEN THOUSAND HAVE LEFT THE
REBEL CAPITAL IN A
FEW DAYS.

Chihuahua, Mex, June 3.-Out OF
normal foreign population of at
| least 1000 this city contains exactly
lO6 foreign rtsidents today. OF the
1000 Americans who ordinarily live
here, only 35 men and IL women re-
main. An official census issued to.
day shows that fear of an attack on
the rebel city by the advancing fed
erals has practically depOpulated the
| town. Thirty thousand people inhabit
Chihuahua in time of peace, but to-
day less than 10000 are here and
the exodus is daily growing larger.
Besides the Americans here there
are 26 British subjects, of whom /
are women and SO Germans, OF whom
eight are women.
Though an attack by the main fed
eral column under General Huerta is
possibility of a flank movement by
Generals Villa and Rabago, who are
reported coming from Parral, south
st Of Chihu9hua with federal caval-
ry, has alarmed the population. Pres
ent plans of the rebel leaders call for
a stand at Bachimba, 46 miles south
of mere, in the mountin passes along
the Mexican Central railroad.
1t is believed that the government
trcors will Lot be able for some time
to reconstruct the burned bridges to
transport their artillery, and the
rebels hope through the lull to get
enough ammunition to give the fed
eral forces a battle at Bachimba.
There is little ammunition in the
rebel army today, not enough at any
time for big engagement, but the
rebel leaders claim they are getting
arms rapidly and will be well sup
piled when the fighting is resumed
at Bachimba.

that 100000 men were idle today
along the Thames and other rivers
in the British Isles. These include
lockers. carmen, seamen and mem

considerable increase, as union men

are refusing to accept further pledges,
and unless the strike is speedily set

fort monroe, Va, June 3-Witn
President Taft's official welcome of
the officials of the German warships
mere today began round of reyel
and functions that will end only when
the squadron weighs anchor for home.
Inc German emperor's three big
hghtlng machines that have come to
the United States to return the Am
erlcan fleets visit to Kiel last year,
came up to Hampton Roads from
Lynn Haven bay early this morning
escorted by the ships of Admiral
Winslows third division of the At
lantic fleet. Both squadrons roared
out 21-gun salute as the Mayfiower
steamed into the roads, with Presi-
dent Taft and the German ambassa-
dor, Count Won Bernstorff.
early this morning the American
ships quietly slipped their cables,
| and headed down the roads.
The first streaks of dawn disclosed
them gliding down the Virginia capes
TO meet the visitors Thiogs have
been in great hustle aboard both
squadrons for the last three days
getting ready for the reception.
Rust Scraped Of.
The rem rust and salt of a trans
Atlantic voyage has been removed
from the German fighters by a silica
coat of gray paint. Decks, holy
stoned and swabbed, glisteuod like
silver as the sun broke through gray
clouds that had threatened a dark
day for the ceremonies. Every shir
had been made fit for parade day
and hundreds of multi coIored flags
Tipped and filled in the freshening
breeze.
Just at daybreak the shrill pipe of
the boatswain's whistle aboard the
German ships announced the escort
OF American ships approaching. From
the bridge Of the Moltke, the Ger
man flagship, a string of signal flags
broke out and waved a message to
tiAN III CiliCil anu OlcIIlu.
Prepare to get under way single
column was the brief command OF
Admiral Rebeur Won Paaschewitz to
his captains. While the American
ships were turning about to head up
the bay with their guests, the Ger
man ships, with anchors, short up
and dripping at the bows, swung in
to inc for the procession to Old
Point, where the president of the
United States was waiting
Stopping and dipping gently under
the impulse of their mighty engines,
the ships skinned past the yellow
sand breaks of the capes, and lower
bay the forefoot Of each big fighter
kicking up jets of spray. So the
column Of ironclads glided into
Hampton Roads to the scene Of the
first battle OF their kind a half CEN
tury ago, and the ceremonies Of Of
fetal reception proceeded. There are
two sailor princes aboard the Ger
man squadron who will be the center
of much interN yhOne is Prince Hen
ry OF Reuss,r 1y the other IS Prlhce
Christian. PAEce Henry, however,
is not the same one who visited the
United States several years ago, as
the representative of the kaiser Nei-
ther Prince Henry nor Prince Chris
tian are the same imperial family,
and neither represents any official
of the German government. They
come merely as lieutenants of the
German navy.

Farmer Adjudged Insane.

Mitchell-A peculiar incident oc-
Cured at Presho, S. D., as the result
of the primary election of last month,
in which L. H. King was a candidate
for the nomination of county treas
urer on the Republican ticket. King,
who was farmer, spent much of his
time in travelling over the large coun-
ty, and spent about $500 to secure the
nomination. He was defeated by his
opponent, and the fact of his defeat
and the money that he has spent SO
preyed on his mind that he became
insane. He has also had some trou-
BILE with his neighbors. and this was
thought to have been one of the con-
tributory causes for his dementeu
condition. He was taken in charge at
Presho by the officers and the board of
insanity adjudged him insane. His
father, who was visiting at the time,
agreed to take his son back to Perry,
Ia, and effect a possible cure at his
home. When he reached this city
the son became unmanageable and it
was necessary to place him in irons

Sioux Falls.-W. A. Caldwell, well
known Hanson county man, has just
came into possession of an old and
interesting document, which probably
is the most valuable relic of its kind
owned in the state. 1t is the original
copy of land grant signed by James
Monroe, and is dated July 10, 1902,
making it 10 years old on the 18th
of the present month. The document
is printed on heavy parchment paper,
and the printing and writing on the
ancient document are as plain and can
be as easily read as though the instru-
ment had been issued within the cur
rent month. The document conveyed
the grant of % acres of land from the
commonwealth of Virginia to one
James Server, who was an ancestor
of the South Dakota man on his moth
er's side. The document was turned
over to Mr.. Caldwell. by his sister from
Indiana, who has just made him a
visit at his South Dakota home. The
tract of land conveyed by the dccu-
ment is still in the same family to
whom the original grant was made.
Mr.. CaldwelPs mother was born in the
house still standing on the original
tract of % acres, the place now being
owned and occupied by cousin of the
South Dakota man.
