FIRE BURNS SIX no DEATH

4AAASS4d4AA, N' j., aug OO'A
mother and her five children,
ranging from FIVE months to
twelve years, were burned to
death in a fire that destroyed
their home early today.
The father and oldest child es-
capped, the father throwing the
boy from a second story window
into the arms of neighbors, and
jumping after him.
The family was that of Emilio
Barbara. Barbara ran a bakery
on the ground floor of his home.
Mrs. Barbara and five of the chill
dren slept in the rear room on the
second floor. The father and old
est son, IA years old, slept in the
front room.
Barbara was awakened by
smoke early this morning. He
tried to get into his wife's room,
but was forced back by scorching
flames. He went to the window
and screamed for help.
Neighbors heard him, and
call was sent for the fire depart
ment. The neigtbors tried to get
a ladder, but couldn't find one.
The FIRE was gaining Roadway all
the time, and Barbados room was
in flames long before the fire de-
partmelt arrived.
In desperation Barbara threw
his son from the window. Neigh
bors caught the boy and saved
his life! Barbara himself jumped |
a moment later. He also was |
caught.

heat drove them back time and
again.
1t was two hours before the
fire was beaten, and the firemen
were able to enter the room. The
charred form of Mrs. Barbara
was found near the window. She
was clasping her five months old
baby to her breast. The bodies
of the other children were found
in a heap at the head of the stairs,
where they had been overcome by
smoke.
Barbara is hysterical today,
and twice has attempted to end
his life.

BROADWAYITIS VICTIM

@AN1 mug w. lOdO@
wayitis has claimed another VIC
tim. Irwin w. Childs, 20, multi
millionaire, is dead in sanitar-
ium.
For FIVE years Childs, with the
money left him by his millionaire
father, blazed his way up and
down Broadway, and became
known as a Spender.
His health was all shot to
pieces by his designations. Sew
eral months ago he left New York
for a Sanitarium in the mountains
to take treatment for his nerves.
He promised to come back"
Childs will never come back.
He leaves a 19-year-old wife,
from whom he has been separated
several times. The last parting
between them was six months
ago, and after a reconciliation of
only two weeks the wife left him
because, she said, seven chorus
girls were too many for one hus7
band.

FIGHT DEVELOPED
ON PURE FOOD LAW
MANUFACTURERS SERVE NOTICE
WHEN Will TRY FOR RE-
PEiLrOE MEASURE RE-
DURING PUBLICITY

Nermillion, S. D.-The second list
of adulterated foods and drugs is Just
being matted from the office of the
food and drug department TO the var
ious county auditors OF the state for
publication in the various official pa
pers. The list has been delayed for
nearly three months on account of
the fact that sc@eral manufacturers,
wholesalers and dealers threatened
to sue the commissioner for damag-
cs if their goods were advertised
throughout the state as adnlterated
and it was necessary for the COM
missioner to give them a heariug aud
also TO have several items of foods
and drugs re-anaiyzed in order to
eliminate any possibility OF Il mis-
take. After Il denomination, how
ever, it was found that no mistake
had been made in any instance and
the list has gone forward as first pre-
pared for publication.
The publication of lists of adulter-
ated foods and drugs is a very inn
portant factor in the enforcement OF
the pure food and drug laws. Adult
Grated and spurious articles cannot
stand the glare e publicity. The put
liuity law has thu effect of driving
thcm from t.le market; consequently
certain yester interests that have
been guilty of selling large quanti-
ties of adulterated goods in South Da-
kota have threatened to go before
the legislature and demand the re-
peal OF the publicity law, requiring
the publication of adulterated foods
and drugs in every official paper in
the state. Commissioners Cook, how
ever, has announced that he will OPP
pose any effort to have the law re-
pealed as it is one of the most use
full laws ever placed upon the statute
BOOKS and is of great value in com
polling the sale of pure foods and
drugs.

DEMOCRATS TO SEND
RIVAL DELEGATIONS
COMMITTEEMAN LYONS WILL GER
THY TC CLARK TICKET AND
WILSON BUNCH WILL
CLAIM IIAJORITT.

Pierre, S, D.-Two democratic
delegations will go from South Da-
kota to Baltimore, n bearing ere
dentiais signed by Dick Lyons, as
chairman of the state party commit
tee, his delegation being the one for
Clark, headed by Andrew r. Lee.
With the Wilson delegation, headed
by r. NJ. Simmons, viii go credentials
from the state canvassing board. and
they will fight out their differences
at Baltimore.
This condition will exist on ac-
couna of the third delegate ticket
with the name of Clark at its head
and the wording of the statute giving
the state chairman and the state can
vassing board equal powers in the is
suing of credentials.
The vote 81 far reported shows al
most a tie between the Lee and Sim
mons tickets.
The probabilities are that the state
board will make its canvass of the
votes by Wednesday or Thursday, as
all the official returns are expected to
be in by that time.

SCOTLAND MINISTER
HEAD Of LUTHERAAS
INTERESTING ANNUAL SESSION
OF THE GERMAN CHIECH Is
HEED At FREEMAN.

Freeman, 8. D.-The South Da-
koia district Of the German Luther
an synod of Missouri, Ohio and other
states held its annual convention at
Freeman, S d., June5th-f1th. About
one hundred delegates, representing
practically every portion of the state,
attended the daily sessi Ms. The Rev.
ichn Strassen, us representative of
the general body, opened She session
with divine services.
President j. D.. Eh.en delivered
the address of welcome. The speak
er laid particular stress ON the graft
flying growth, which the district has
SHOWN during the six ycars of is
Independent existence. AT the time
OF organization in 1906 the district
roster contained 80 active pastors,
three school te&chcrs and ten thous-
and members and six school teachers
administering to the spiritual wants
of thirteen thousand members. The
number Of parochial schools has in
creased from ~ 10 %. Professor
Theo. Buenger of Concordia College,
st. Paul, MINI, addressed the con-
Vention briefly. He showed TIE CON
advantages Of y higher educ2tion in
our Lutheran Institutions. where the
spiritual side OF t1e scholar is de-
Veloped en- ii par with the iutelleo-
thal. During the six morning SEES
sions Prof. Fr, Streckfuss of Con-
cordia Theological Seminary, Spring
field, H., read AN interesting and in
structive paper on the doctrinal diff
fercnces between the Lutheran and
the Methodist church.
Director y. j. Bakke of Cincinnati,
0nio, Sunpervisor of the Church's
mission pleaded the cause of the
spiritual neglected negro Of the
southern state. From a small insis-
niiicant mission post founded in a de-
lapidated time-worn building he has
seen and heIped the cause grow, IN
til today the colorcd Lutheran mis-
sion of the South has its OWN paro-
chial schools, its preparatory
college and theological seminary,
we'll organized congregations.
On the other hand, religious train
ing combined with the secular nee
essarily elevates the standards OF 4
ration, because a man observing his
duty towards God at the same time
fultills his duty towards the state.
The annual election of officers re-
suited as follows: Rev. j. ID. Ehlon
of Scotland, S. d., president; Rev. f.
Leybe of Wolsey, S. D., first vice
president; Rev. +. Oberheu of Vent

the recital when Mrs. Dora Bntler
presented Two OF her pupils III piano

kind OF treatment from these capable
young ladies. Miss Powers played a
triple number at tic first, giving IL
Sonata With an allegro movement by
Beethoven, Etnde Migmon by Sehutt.
and From the Depths by MacDowell.
TWO OF her best numbers were the

Il fine technique and skill, and she
was not lacking in the least in eithar.
She played with Il fine intuition and

SALOON CASES
TAKEN 10 RI

Pierre. S. D.-The state liquor
laws appear to have a good chance
to get before the supreme court in
several different phases of construc-
ton within a short time. The county
treasurer of Brookings county has
refused to grand licenses after the
county commissioners have approved
the bonds of the applicants, and
there will be a case up on that pro-
position. The county commissioners
of Faux county have refused to APP
prove the bonds of saloon applicante
who have complied with the law up
to that point, and they will likely
come up with a test on that right.
The town authorities of Midland are
up against the injunction against
granting licenses in that place on the
ground that the petitioners asking
for saloons were not free holders I'M
der the law, and that the original
petitions were not legal,

the Insurance money. The sheriff ar
