to put in a sidetrack and other faci-
lities at Victor, n new town on the
line. The company laid out townsites
at New Effinkton and Rosholt, where
Iflourishing towns have sprung up.
Independent persons, not connected
with the railroad, established anoth-
err town between New Ellington and

have been located at Victor, but the

r. D. TROMBLEY IN
SERIOUS ACCIDENT
WHILE HUNTING, TRAVELLING
MAN SHOOTS SELF IN RIGHT
ARM.

Robert ID. Trombley. one of the
best known travelling men who makes
his home in Mitchell, may lose his
right arm as the result of an accident
while hunting with III. G.. Scharn-
weber near Chain Lake yesterday
morning. A Winchester shot gun was
discharged into the point of the ell.
bow, but amputation will not be nec-
essary unless infection sets in.
The two men had reached the lake
shortly before 9 o'clock in the morn
ing. driving in Mr.. Trombley's ma
chine. Mr.. Scharnweber jumped out
of the a and was waiting for his
companion to follow. Because of the
cold weather, the car was closely
c%urtained and he did not see what
happened. He heard the report of the
gun and Immediately MI. Trombley
|cramled out with the blood streaming
from his arm and carrying the gun
in his left hand.
MI. Scharnweber Immediately com
menced to wrap the arm and succeed
ed in stopping the flow of blood by
tieing a leather belt about the wound.
Although the injured man was very
weak, he gave directions to Mr.. Sch
arnweber about the car and the two
started for Fulton, about nine miles
south of the lake. This was the first
time Mr.. Schumacher had aver driv-
EN- a car but the trip was made with
out mislap.
Fortunately a doctor was in the
hotel at Fulton when the two men
arrived and placed a temporary dress
Ing on the wound. The Omaha train
was caught a few minutes later into
Mitchell and Mr.. Tro1nbley was taken
to st. Joseph's hospital in an am
bulance. Reports from the hospital
this morning said the patient had
rested easily and was able to move
the fingers on the injured arm, SO
without Infection the chances for re-
|coyery are favorable.
The exact cause OF the accident is
not known, although it is believed
the trigger caught on the footrobe
used by Mr.. Trombley. The two men
had shot several times on the way to
the lake. and 1t is believed that Mr..
Trombley had unknowingly entered
the car with a loaded gun, as he had
previously been known as an I'M
usually careful hunter.

Peever, S. D.-The mysterious dis
appearance of Arthur Allen, propri-
etor. of a Sisseton restaurant, has
given rise to the fear among his
friends that he has been either the
victim of foul play OF has met with
some accident at some out of the way
place which prevents him communi-
eating with his friends. So far as can
be ascertained there is not the slight
est eason why he should have volun-
,tarily disappeared. The missing man,
who was an expert at handling thresh
ing machines. had consented to oper-
ate a machine for a farmer named
Paterson, living some miles from
town. The last seen of him alive was
when he departed from his restaur-
ant for the purpose of proceeding
to the scene of the threshing opera
tions. He rode part way with farm
er. and after alighting from the wa
gon disappeared as effectually as if
the ground had opened up and swal-
lowed him. Friends are conducting a
systematic search in hope of finding
him il alive and his body If he is
dead.

planning that while the intent of the
law is good and it will doubtless be
of much aid to genuine poor widows
with children under IA years who are
depending upon them, that a number
of women who really have no claim
for this help, are applying with petit
tions for aid. The law provides for
an examination of the home and con-
ditions by the states attorney and in
more than one instance the petit
toner's have been found amply able to
care for their children. One oma
had grown children supporting her,
money in the bank, a home with
poultry, but yet asked for aid for her
two minor children.

street commit suicide by taking poi
son, and if so, did she take it at the

death?
These are questions which now con
front the authorities and which they
will endeavor to solve within the
next few days.
Time of Death Uncertain.
The time of the death of the young
woman is another mystery. Those
who were in the room when Coroner

O'Clock but Dr. ID. w. Craig, one of
the physicians called, asserted after
examining the body, that death had
ensued about Z o'clock in the even

N REMARK LOCATES
SISTER AFTER 80 A

Pierre, S. D.-To locate a sister
he had not see for thirty years,
through accidentally hearing a CON
versation, was the experience OF
Claude Baker, of Stanley county,
while in the vicinity of Harold with
a herd of horses Il few days ago.
The brother and sister had drifted
apart after the young man started
out for himself many years ago, but
he knew her married name was
Suman, and while having no knowl-
edge OF where his sister lived. while
delivering horses near Harold he
heard the name Suman mentioned,
and an investigation showed him
that he was but a few miles from the
home of the sister whom he had not
seen for SO many years, and there
was a happy reunion.

HELPLESS PHEASANTS
DEvoURED BY COYOTES

Pierre, S. D.-A number of the
beautiful Chinese pheasants brought
to this section of the state, have been
killed by coyotes, because they We're
let out into the open before their
wings had grown sufficiently to en-
able them to fly away and save them
selves. Their wings had to be closely
slipped for shipping and exhibit at
the fair, and they should be kept in
captivity and safety until the wings
have grown again, when they will be
quite able to care for themselves. 1t
is the idea of Game Warden Hedrick
that the birds should be turned loose
as soon as possible, for they do not
take we'll to captivity.

WHEN RUNAWAY
TEAM HITS TRAIN

Hartford, S. D.-Henry Ziegler, a
farmer living near here, was badly
hurt and had a narrow escape from
instant death when his team, running
away, dashed into a train which was
moving at Il good rate of speed. Zieg-
Ter was thrown violently from the
wagon to the ground. His neck was
badly strained and he received other
injuries. The wagon in which he was
riding made so much noise that he
was not ware of the approach of the
train until it was upon him at a
crossing. He attempted to turn his
team into the ditch, but one of the
horses. a colt, plunged to such an
extent that both animals were thrown
against the train.

Precedent as to State
Officials to Be Ig-
nored. j.
STANLEY HAS PLAN
Would Save IS, 900 by Ignor-
ing Committee Proposals
Provided by Law.

Pierre, s. DC. G. Lawrence, for
the past four years superintendent
of public instruction in this state, is
the first man. to try to break over
the two term precedent set since
statehood, and has announced his
candidacy for a third nomination to
that place. There is Il general belief
that no state officer can hold more
than two terms under constitutional
restrictions, but that applies only to
state ~treasurers, and county officials,
and does not apply to any other state
officer. than the treasurer.
In Stanley county there is a strong
effort to eliminate the county major
ity and minority proposal committees
provided for in the new primary act,
and to force all candidates into the
independent columns, each on his
personal individual footing without
any party organization endorsement.
1t has been found that to hold these
meetings in Stanley county would
cost nearly $4,000 and to carry out
all the provisions of that lay will go
much higher so far as that county Is
concerned, and to avoid this, as we'll
as to make all start even in the race.
they will ignore the proposal commit
tee meetings If they can possibly do
so.
None Oppose Glassner.
Up to the present no opposition
has developed to Frank p. Glassner
as a candidate to succeed himself as
secretary of state. While he worked
with the stalwart faction of the party
in the last campaign, the indications
are that he will seek the majority
proposal committee endorsement for
the next campaign, or try it out in
the independent column. The former
plan will be the one no doubt unless
some active opposition to that course
appears soon.
Harlan ]. Bashfield is the only
candidate for attorney general as yet,
with others to hear from. Railway
Commissioner G. G.. Robinson, has
decided that he will ask for renom-
ination as the commissioner from tn G
second district, with p. w. Daugherty
present attorney for the board out as
an open candidate for the same
place.
The matter of reducing the number
of the legislative body is becoming an
active sentiment in many of the pap
ers of the state, and if the people
vote for a convention for constitu-
tional revision, that will without a
doubt be n of the matters which
will come up for discussion and re-
adjustment in the convention, with a
possibility of attempting to secure
the submission of such an amend
ment outside of such convention is

inion of the people on that subject.
with a view of securing a smaller
legislative. body, to be in position to
meet emergencies in legislative mat
tiers.
