come to town and then refused to go
back with Mr.. Wingen. He promised
to be ready at four o'clock and at that
time was nowhere to be found He
was found later in a saloon and re-
fused to return to the farm.
The lads father appeared in court
and said that he had no further inter-
est in his son as he had left home last
September. The judge asked him if
he had tried to find some other home
for the boy since his breaking his par
ole and he said that he had not. He
did not appear to have the slightest
interest in what is to become of his
son and listened without the flicker of
an eyelash while the judge pronounced
the sentence and told the boy about
the rules he would have to obey, and
the difference between reformatory
life and the chance to have a home
which he had refused to take. The
boy appeared very penitent. The
judge asked the father about the rest
of his children. The father said that
when one of his sons had skipped
school, he had clicked" the boy. He
said that this boy was thirteen, but he
did not know the age of the other.
The Judge then told him that he had
not given the boy the proper bringing
up or it would not be necessary to use
the rod.
Judge Comstock had a heart to
heart talk with Arthur and told him
that he had lost the chance that was
given him to have home and make a
man of himself. He admitted that
Redwing might make a man of him,
but not such a man as Mr.. Wingen
would have made. He explained the
rules and regulations that have to be
obeyed at the reformatory and en-
phasized the Importance of obeying
each one of these rules to the letter.
He expressed his sincere regret that
the sentence would have to be execut-
ed and said that Arthur was only the
second boy who had been sent there
from Blue Earth county during his ex-
perience as judge. He hoped that the
boy would make good and be let out on
parole in as short time as possible.
If he is not released on parole, he can
be kept at Redwing until he is twen-
ty-one. He is now sixteen.

lev Jenkins, another stepson, who was
milking when the shooting began was
the only member of the family willing
to talk. He said the quarrel began
Sunday afternoon when H m m on
forbade Clifford Jenkins taking the
family buggy. Prior to that bad feel
ing had been aroused because of diff
ferences over the payment of debts.
When Hammond ordered Clifford
Jenkins to leave the horse and buggy
alone, Clifford did not obey and took
his rifle and went to the barn, hitched
up the rig and departed. Early Mon
day Hammond began to upbraid Cliff
ford and from that the quarrel grew
until Hammond, according to Charley
Jenkins, drew his revolver and began
firing. Mrs. Hammond, he says, was
coming down from upstairs, where she
had gone to get shotgun. Whether
Mrs. Hammond delivered the gun to
James Jenkins, who was then wounded
is not known, but the shooting was
brought to close when Hammond re-
ceived shot gun charge in the mouth
and fell dead.

Three Probable Fatalities as Result of
Trouble in Hammond Family at
Watertown, S. ID.
TWO DEAD AND THIRD MAY DIE
Mother and Daughter Mix in Affair
But Are Not Injured-Third
Son Talks

AS climax of long standing dis
sension between father and his step
sons, E. o. Hammond, aged 81, and
Clifford Jenkins, aged 25, were killed,
and James Jenkins, age II, probably
fatally wounded in general gun fight
at the farm home of Hammond, eight
miles east of Watertown, S. D., Feb.
10.
Hammond was killed instantly by a
shotgun charge in the face at close
range. Clifford Jenkins was shot in
the back with revolver, while James
jenkins was struck four times by re-
volver bullets, his most serious injury
being the result of ball which shat
tered his shoulder blade. Mrs. Ham,
rnond. mother of the boys, was an eye
witness, and, it is believed, aided in
the battle against Hammond. AL
though the bullets flew thick and fast
about her, she escaped unframed. A
sister of the boys was also in the
house, but escaped injury by fleeing
into the attic.
Clyde Hammond, brother of the
dead man, who appeared on the scene
soon after the shooting and attempted
to kill the wounded Jenkins boy, is in
Jail in Watertown. 1t is believed the
shock has driven him insane
Hammond had had trouble with his
wife's sons for two years. Details of
the fight are not yet clear. Mrs. Ham
mond in charge of deputy sheriff,
will say nothing, and her daughter
was hysterical and wept continuously
over the body of her brother. Char

CINCINNATI, Ohio, June 21.-The
need of Jewish university in Pales-
tine was the most important question
which came up today before the open
ing session of the sixteenth annual
convention of the Federation of Amer
ican Zionists which opened this morn
ing. This years convention Is con
sidered the most important ever held
by the Zionists because of the mum,
Der of vital topics to be considered
Among these is the matter of de
manding that the United States com
pell more lenient attitude by Rus
sian government officials toward the
prosecuted Jews Of that country. u
was argued today that the establish
ment of Jewish university at Pales
tine will give to the young Jews o.
Russia, who are barred from univer
stiles there because of their religion
and nationality, a place to educate
themselves The recent visit of Ma
hum Sckalan in this country was de
clared to have greatly strengthened
the Zionist movement in America.

sympathy OF the school authorities.
The children are encouraged to save
their pennies for these annual sum.
mer wanderings in some section OF
the empire. The children who expect
to participate must save enough that
together with what their parents Will

expense of each child.
The pennies of the children saved
through the winter, little added by
the parents, and the balance neces-
sary, furnished by the school authori-
ties, and philanthropic societies, gives
the children a happy outing.

Nationwide
Newspaper
Publicity.

From Maine to California,
from the Canadian northwest
to sunny Florida, every morn
ing. every evening, every day,
the news of the world is told
in the newspapers which dot
the land from ocean to ocean.
1t is almost impossible to
conceive the tremendous power
of informing the public which
is thus combined in these daily
purveyors of the worlds news.
In no way dissociated from
this great national force for
spreading news is an equally
strong force for disseminating
advertising Information.
Those manufacturers who
want to create widespread
demand, and who want a larger
distribution lot Their pTouuctS
recognize the influence of the
newspaper and tell their story
constantly in a dozen. hun
bred, or a thousand cities and
towns simultaneously.
Makers of nationally sold
goods are realizing more and
more every day that the daily
newspaper offers more eco
nomical and more efficient
means of creating actual de-
mand than any other advertis-
Ing medium.

house or lords, Grey mas no ueslio
to enter the upper house, and for this
reason there is much speculation as
to how King George will reward him
for his brilliant management OF the
recent European crisis.
For one thing, If he hadn't hun
dred-year.old baronetcy-the heredi-
tary "sir," which enables him to put
bart" after his name-he would be
quite content to be simply NortAum-
berand Grey. When year ago King
George desired to grant him some
recognition for his work in connection
with the Anglo-France-German crisis
caused by the Agadir incident, he
didn't offer to make him viscount
or earl, because he knew that Grey
would only have accepted the honor
under protest and as matter of 10y
atty. He eventually made him
Knight Of the Garter, which enables
j him to add the initials K. G. to his
name. George knew that this was the
one honor that would afford Grey real
pleasure. The knights Of the Garter
include most of the crowned heads
of Europe, but there are some kings
and princelings who would give most
anything to be able to wear the hand
some blue velvet cloak, and jeweled
chain of the order.
