being made by Black Hills mining anu
business men to have the local United

First Cousins; Marriage illegal.

FiFSt SouSihSS Marriage iiie9di.
Elk Point.-Offcers have returned
here having in custody Charles Webb,
arrested in Lawrence county on a
charge of perjury. The charge is an
outgrowth of statements made by
Webb when he and a young woman
giving her name as Bernice Webb, ap-
peared before the clerk of courts and
applied for a marriage license. Webb
swore then be and the girl were not
related and hat the girl was over 18.
The license vas granted and the cou-
pie were married. 1t has been learned
that Webb and the girl are first cous-
ms, the statutes of South Dakota pro-
hibiting the marriage of persons thus
related. 1t is believed that steps will
be taken to have the marriage de-
clared void and that the criminal
charge against the young woman will
be pushed.

WONDERFUL MACHINE.
Automatic Rusmaking Device Has Ex
traordinary Capacity.


An invention creating considerable
interest among textile men is Il rug
making machine that will make clipped
hearth rugs. thirty inches wide by six
feet in length. ut the extraordinary
rate OF sixty an hour. When il is con-
sidered that no less than 800 cloth
clips are needed for each rug and that
these are picked up automatically by
the machine. placed in the canvas and
the rug completed all within the space
OF one minute the capability of the
machine must indeed he great.
The only manual labor connected
with the rugmaking is said to be the
cutting of the cloth clips. An idea Of
the saving both in time and cost may
be gained from the fact that ut pres
ent it takes one rugmaker four hours
To produce one rug. and the cost is
S36.50 per 100. Ii is said the new
machine will produce them ut n cost OF
5000 per 100.
The most interesting feature OF the
machine is the spring clips, which au-
tomatically pick up the cloth strips
from the flexible platform and convey
them to the machine

Danger In Water Supply.

Over large part of the country
streams and rivers form the most avail
able source of water supply. ana in
thlnly settled regions they are usually
free from contamination. although even
there II tanbark plant or sawmill may
lessen the Gesrability of the water for
domestic uses. Mines. especially coal
mines. may likewise discharge into
streams their drainage of acid ana
otherwise polluted waters with similar
effect. but the most common source of
pollution is the sewage from towns and
cities. In fact. practically all the
larger streams and even many of the
smaller ones are highly polluted by
such sewage or by refuse from various
manufacturing plants II is true that
such streams become gradually purified
and under ordinary conditions may be
fairly safe but the periodic outbreaks
of typhoid fever that occur among the
users of their waters are sufficient t.
Indicate the imperfect nature Of this
purification.

of whom they are justly proud. In
celebration of the happy event the
seven living sons and daughters of
the Everton's, with their families,
gathered at the Everton home west
OF the city on the last day of the
old year, and for two days enjoyed
the festal occasion of the golden
wedding. There were present Elmer

DANCE HALL BURNS
WHILE PREACHER SCORES.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. Members
of the congregation of the First
Methodist church are Interestingly
discussing today the strange co-inci-
dence of the burning of the Airdrome
dance hall almost adjoining the
church, while the Rev. C. E. Locke
stood in the pulpit and anathema-
tized dance halls in general.
Dancing is harmful to the NOR
ais, particularly promiscuous dane
ing in public halls" declared DR..
Locke. Just as the glare from the lair
of the bunny hug and turkey trot
lighted up the stained church win
dows and the clang of fire engine
songs interrupted the minister's
charge. The fire was extinguished
with tri1ing loss.
