BOY KILLED
Dragged to Death By a Fright.
ened Horse

Sioux Falls, May q. -Coroner Miller
was called to the Nels Clausen farm
south of Brandon by the tragic death Of
a young boy.
No d was an eye witness TO the
horrible accident but as near rs can ba
learned Frank Anderson, IA years old,
formerly an inmate of the Children's
Home, but who has lived in the Clau-
sen family for the past two years, went
into the pasture to bring in a young
horse. He took with him a small
calibre rife which MIR. Clausen had
given him and spent some of his time
shooting gophers. When the lad did
not return at noon Mr.. Clsusen went
to look for him. When he reached
the barn the sight which met his eyes
was a horrible one. There stood the
horse and there lay the body of the boy
on the ground in almost an u%nrecogniz
able condition.
The boy had a rope attached TO the
halter of the horse and one end was
fastened to the lads arm With a slip
moose.
The general opinion is that the boy
attached the rope to his arm so that
both hands would be free to use the
rife and that on firing the gun the
horse became frightened and ran, the
boy being unable to stop the animal.
The trail of the frightened animal
was followed for some distance, ii
crossing a small creeK four times.
The body of the boy was covered with
dirt and mud. His nose was ground
fat to his face aud one side of the face

CROP CONDITIONS
Continued Rains Have Retarded
Corn Planting -Small
Grain Good

Sioux City, May 81. -Continuous
rains in Iowa, Nebraska and South
Dakota have hampered corn planting,
but a fair percentage of the acreage has
been seeded, according to reports from
farming districts. A few warm days
will place the ground in such condi-
ton that the planting car be rapidly
completed. In some localities from 80
to IS per cent Of the corn acreage is
seeded. M )st of the idle fields are
on low land.
In only a few instances are the
farmers reported more than a week
behind in their seedi ng.
Wheat, barley and oats are reported
in good condition. Most small grain
is we'll up. A few complaints of
yellow wheat are coming from bottom
land farms, but on highland farms
all crops are in a favorable condition.
Plenty of hay is assured by the
abundance of moisture in all pats OF
the surrounding territory. Alfalfa,
especially, is in fine condition and al
most ready fer the first cutting.
Cold weather in some sections is re-
ported TO have damaged fruit, while
in other parts other trees are loaded
and an exceptionally heavy yield is
predicted.

TIP FROM WILSON: -
DON'T WRITE FOR JOB

PRINCETON, n. J., Dec. 81. - Gov
Wilson dropped a gentle hint to office
seekers tonight after his strenuous
day in the state house, where he found
ton of letters awaiting him. He was
questioned as to what procedure he
will adopt in filling postmasterships.
After reflection he said:
Il have a general principle that
those who apply are the least likely
to be appointed.
Then" suggested an interviewer
there are many who already disqua!i-
fled themselves"
There are" replied the president
elect. To-day l received letter from
man who asked me to tell him the
best way of applying for a position.
What position did he have in
mind?" someone asked.
Il do not remember. He probably
wanted to be sealer of weights or
something of that kind"
Here the interview was interrupted
by Sam Gordon, the old negro messen-
ger who has served every governor OF
New Jersey for forty years, whispered
something in the president-elect's ear
What" said the governor to Sam.
rs it a real razorback? That's fine.
What did you do with it. SAM"
Sam informed Mr.. Wilson that a
ham weighing thirteen pounds had
been received from an admirer out in

DEFICIT OF NEVADA
CON. LAST QUARTER
Strike Reduced The Earnings
Below the Amount Paid
in Dividends.

The effects OK the strike at Ely are
now being felt and the Nevada Con-
soiidated companys quarterly report for
the period ending December 81. 1919.
shows how cleanIy the strike bit into
ope-fourth OF the year from an earning
standpoint. The eastern wires brought
the Information that during this quarter
Inc Nevada company had net income
or S0i.25O, which was s42546 less than
the quarterly dividend requirement.
The 1912 opera tions. however, were
well within dividends. The earnings OF
tne first quarter Were S1.233. T6S; S1,62S.-
80? FOR the second and slSl6,116 for the
lnird quarter, giving earnings during the
year. Of s5,2S6.99S, against dividends OF
s., 9s9, is4. The loss OF copper produc-
ton during the last quarter OF the year
was especially disastrous. for the COM
pahy was deprived OF. the highest range
OF the year FOR copper. The October
copper price was 1874 cents: Novem-
Der, E.326 cents, and December 1875
cents per pound. This gives an average
price for the three months of 1888 cents
per pound
The Utah Copper statement for the
same period has not been released as

felt in that instance also.

PROXY VOTE ABUSE
TO Be ELIMINATED
Shareholders Should Be at
Annual Meetings in the
First Person.

The American differs radically from
the English stockhoIder in a corporation,
in that he seldom attends an annual
stockholders meeting. The conviction
is becoming set in this country that
many OF the abuses OF corporate powers
By officials are due 10 the lack OF per-
shareholder. mis- Indifference usually be-
ing shown by the appearance OF cais
proxy at an annual meeting. whereas he
should get there in person and make his
influence felt.
One who has attended innumerable
annual stockholders meetings. from the
big railroads TO small mining concerns,
is struck Immediately by the complete
absence or the man really in Interest,
the individual shareholder Meetings
and the western stockholder may not feel
entirely free to travel to Maine for the
purpose OF finding out the things he Is
entitled to know But 1t frequently is
possible for number OF shareholders to
share the proportionate burdens of send
ing one of their number To a. distant
meeting, and as soon as this becomes
the fashion annual meetings are going
to be different.
Such meetings as now engineered are
OF the company. and they have before
them tho minutes OF the meeting all pre-
pared, cut and dried, from which there
seldom is any deviation 1t is snid that
English stockholders attend their meet
ings by the hundreds and the questions
they fire at officials demonstrate that
the stockiiolder after all Is the boss.
There is entirely too much proxy voting
in America, and the stoclsholder is likely
to have this fact repeated so often from
has made annual meetings merely
lnS3l observance.
