TAFT GIVES ORDER
ROSEBUD TOWNS APPEAL TO
PRESIDENT TAFT AGAINST
TRANSFER OF OFFICE.
HAPPENINGS OVER THE STATE
What 10 Going On Here and There
That is Of Interest to the Read
ers Throughout South Da-
kota and Vicinity.

Pierre.-The execution of the order
transferring the land office and point
of registration for Bennett and Mel
lette county lands from Gregory to
White River appears to have been
stayed for the time being upon an ex-
ecutive order. The residents along
the Northwestern's Trip county ex-
tension, including the people of Greg
DRY and Winner were much angered
at the action of the general land Of
flee in transferring the filing point to
White River, to which Murdo, on the
Milwaukee, is the nearest railway
point, thus causing them to lose the
large volume of trade which the land
seekers would bring.
Last fall on the occasion of Presi-
dent Taft's visit to South Dakota, a
good sized party Of Rosebud boosters
drove through the 100 miles of sleet
and mud to Pierre, wearing rosebuds
and white hats to greet the president.
They called him out to the porch of
Congressman Burkes home where he
addressed them, and he again mention
ed their long journey in his final
speech the next day.
These people appealed over the
head of the department directly to
the president, and he, remembering
their trip to meet him last fall, has
at least temporarily stopped the re-
moval of their land office.

A 100000 Fire.

Deadwood.-Until the arrival of
General Manager Dorr from Denver,
nothing definite will be known about
the plans of the Mogul Mining COM
pany for rebuilding their big cyanide
mill at Puma, which was almost en-
tirely destroyed by fire Thursday. The
origin of the fire is still unknown, al
though it started in the precipitate
drying room and was soon beyond con-
troll.
The mill was remodeled five years
ago from the old Kildonan chlorina-
ton plant of the Horseshoe Mining
company, and the total plant was val
ued at about 100000. The flames de-
stroyed most of the structure but the
Moore process of shines treatment,
some of the crushers, classifiers, tube
mill and sand tanks were saved and
can be used together with some of
the machinery, in a new mill.
There is some doubt as to whether
the new mill will be erected at Puma
or at Terry, where the mines are To-
Gated. The presence at Terry of many
thousand tons Of low grade ores that
will not stand the railroad shipment
rate to Puma is consideration that
would make mill there worth while.
The mill of the old Horseshoe COM
pany, which merged with the Mogul
five years ago, was located at Terry
and it also burned down.
The present loss by fire is believed
to be about 100000, which does not
include loss of time and nearly two
hundred men are thrown out of en-
ployment until the company can az
range to have it's ores treated again.
Messrs. Binns and Alsip of Pittsburgh,
Pa, are the principal stockholders.

in their incomes and to do It comfort.
ably. Denmark is as obviously happy
as she is poor. i
1.-THE Danes are wise enough not to
demand perfection; II it comes they
can take instant pleasure therein.
When it does not come they still are
placid. Conformity to rule, even
though it be in so small q matter as
fixed meal times, does entail some
coercion upon the natural man. So
punctuality Is not a Danish virtue. s.>rs
I'm few Danish households are there
fixed and unalterable hours for meals.
Pay call when you will, and the Gus.
tom Of the country will uphold you,
but it will not insure you against find.
ing your friends at table. The hotels
follow the very reverse Of the Ameri.
can method, and while you can get
snacks all the time, you cannot be
certain that at any time you will find
a dinner ready cooked and waiting.
Even the national food lends itself
admirably both to simplicity and to
unpunctuality. Its staple is bread and
butter-in well-to-do houses immense
thicknesses Of excellent but~ and
fairly thin slices of several varieties
Of bread. The staple food of our work
ing class is also bread and butter. but
their butter Is bad and scraped and
their bread is uniformly innutritious."

Authorities Are on the Lookout for
Man Said to Have EIoped.
Chamberlain.-Peace officers OF
western South Dakota and of the
Rosebud country, in the extreme
south central part of the state, are
maintaining a close watch for an in
dividual named Winnie Knott, who
has disappeared from his home at
Lander, Wyo., and who it is alleged
eloped with Mrs. Jennie Bommart,
who for the past two years has been
employed in restaurants in that place.
There is belief that the couple will
attempt to hide themselves in west
ern South Dakota or in the Rosebud
country. LEY
Knott is charged with having de-
serted his wife and two small child
rem, and in addition was to have been
arrested for breaking quarantine reg
ulations. The wife and two children
are quarantined, the children being
sick with contagious diseases. 1t is
charged that Knott, a short time be-
fore his departure, entered his home
in defiance of the quarantine, -four
ished revolver in the face of his
wife, made some threats against her
and attacked her. He was to have
been arrested for breaking the quar-
antine and abusing his wife as soon
as the quarantine was raised and his
wife was able to appear as a witness
against him.
The woman with whom Knott is al
legged to have eloped is said to be a
grass widow" of prepossessing ap-
pearance and of captivating manners.
She is a pronounced brunette and Is
said to have come from Milwaukee.

jump from a Train Fatal.

Mitchell.-Lem Winter died at the
st. Joseph hospital here as the result
of an accident which happened to him
while riding on a Milwaukee freight
train from Virgil to Alpena. He had
been to the former town to attend a
dance and rode to Alpena on a
through freight. When the train
reached Alpena it did not stop, and
in attempting to get off he was thrown
under the train. His left arm was
badly crushed by the wheels and a
portion of his head was crushed, so
that the bone penetrated the brain.
Winter was brought to this city and
placed in the hospital, but did not re-
gain consciousness. Winter was a
barber and worked in Alpena.

Deadwood.-H. H. Mugglye, we'll

Page Family Troubles End in Divorce.

Sioux Falls.-The granting by Judge
Jones of the state circuit court of a
divorce to Mrs. Mabel M. Page from
DR.. Geo. T. Page, a prominent and
wealthy dentist of Sioux Falls, is the
sequel to the domestic difficulties of
the couple, which for some time have
been a subject of gossip in the city.
The divorce was granted on the
grounds of cruel and inhuman treat
ment. The court also allowed Mrs.
Page alimony of $50 per month for
herself and $40 additional for the sup
port of the child of the couple, who
is in custody of the mother. The
father was granted permission to Wis
it the child, and after it has reached
the age of years he may, if he de.
sires, have the custody of it during the
months of July and August of each
year. DR.. Page was required to fur
nish bond guaranteeing the payment
of the monthly alimony.
