FIXED DOOR
And Then Robbed a Drug Store
at Chamberlain.

Chamberlain, May 13.-FJllowing a
two days search by an armed posse,
working with the assistance of blood
hounds from Mitchell, "Slim'' Hall
was captured 30 miles south of here,
at the ranch house owned by doc
Wallace. Hall had pulled off a num-
Der of exciting affairs during the past
few days and impressed the autnori-
ties with the belief that he is a dan.
gerous character.
While employed to do some work
in the basement of the Terpenning
drug store, closed last week by cred
itors, Hall left an outside door fixed,
returned to the store during the night
and took about So, 500 in jewelry and
other valuables. Some children dis
covered the stolen plumber hidden I'M
der a skiff near the river. which was
the first knowledge that the robbery
had been committed.
Hall was arrested and Jailed, but
sawed through the bars the same
night. He broke into the express
Office and took a $50 suit of clothes
made to his order and held for pay

POSTMASTER PRIMARY
Mitchell Aspirants Not Satisfied
With Recent Election.

Mitchell, May 13.-In view of the
fact that there was a disagreement
among the postmaster candidates as to
the validity of the primary held here
Saturday, and in which only one
candidate participated, there is a
probability OF another primary being
held in the near future, under rules
established by members of the demo
cratic organization.
Thomas Bell, who received 3SS votes
IN the primary Saturday. declares that
he will enter any primary that his
opponents may desire to call, whether
the voting be confined to democrats or
include all patrons of the post Office.
The action of the organization lead
els in giving out a willingness to have
postmaster primaries held throughout
the state is generally taken to be the
result of orders received from the
powers at Washington, and to that
extent the order is classed as a victory
for the showing made on behalf of the
insurgent democrats by Thomas Ayres
of Pierre and Richard w. Clarke of
Huron.
In their protests, personally present
ed ut Washington, Ayres and Clark
we're not SO insisteut for recognition
Of the Richards law as they were
that the designation of postmasters be
removed from the possibility of being
classed as the private prerogatives of
James e. Coffey, Ed. Coffey and Thorn
as Taubman. Previous to the filing of
this protest the organization leaders
had ever declined to call the member
nf the state committee together to dis
cuss patronage questions, and indica
tions pointed to the formation of a
close corporation for the distribution
OF patronage in South Dakota.
The issuance of a manifesto author
izing postmaster primaries under rule
limiting participation to members OF
the democratic party is generally
construed in political circles as a
death blow to any proposal for a per
sonal machine. The democrats of each
locality, under this rule, will be abso-
lute dictators and the members of the
state organization must confirm the
selection or stir up trouble.

PHONE DISPUTE
Mitchell Will Vote on PROPOSE.
ton to Install Municipal
Telephone.

Mitchell, May 13.-The anticipated
movement of the city of Mitchell to re-
move the poles and wires of the Dakota
Central Telephone company from the
streets and alleys will not be carried
out. Today the franchise of the com
pany expires, and it was the intention
of the city officials to remove the para
phernalia of the company. Owing to
the litigation which has eDsued cover
ing the matter of rates, which have
not as yet been adjusted, the city has
taken the position that it cannot at
this time properly attempt to remove
the wires and poles. The railroad
commissioners have the rate question
under consideration and they will take
a period of four months before making
a report on which the rates are TO be
based-if they ale to be changed from
those which the city council provided
in a new ordinance, which the COM
pany refuses to accept.
Ii has been a prolonged fight between
the city and the telephone company,
and there does not appear to be an
indication of where the controversy
will end. Mayor Hitchcock, in a
statement to the council concei ming
the telephone situation, says that there
is but n for the city. and that
is to organize and incorporate a new
telephone exchange. The plan has
met with much favor on the part of
the citizens, and the matter will be
submitted to a popular vote whether
Mitchell will have a municipal tele-
phone plant. Arrangements were
made to call the election for June 10
and it is believed that the proposition
will carry among the people of this
city. To maintain his neutrality in
the situation Mayor Hitchcock had
the telephone removed from his bust
ness Office aud residence, and a mum

RESCUES SON
Father Saves Son from Death
at the Bottom of Deep
Well.

Dell Rapids, May 13.-Through the
heroism of his father, Bert Wilhelm,
a well known Young man of this viciu-
ity was saved from death by gas at the
bottom of q deep we'll which he was
boring on a farm. The we'll had reached
a depth of ninety feet when a huge
stone was encountered. A charge of
dynamite was exploded to remove this.
Some hours later the young man de-
cided to go to the bottom of the we'll
to see to something that required atten
ton. He was lowered into the we'll,
which was but eighteen inches in
diane ter. and after a lapse of time
failed to respond to the signals of
those who were lowering BIN Be-
coming alarmed the father entered the
we'll to rescue his son, taking a chair
to place around him SO he could be
pulled to the top.
When he reached his son the latter
was gasping and apparently was neal
death. The father was unable to get
the chain around bis sons body, and
finally fastened it to one arm and he
was pulled up in this way, the father

MAPLE SUGAR
How the Sap is Procured and
the Sugar Manufactured.

Maple sugar, says a writer in the
May Wide World, is procured by in
sorting a thin tube into the trunk of
the tree, out of which the fluid ex-
udes. This sap, when first taken, is
as clear and thin as wat r, and tastes
exactly like a glass of water in which
a lump of sugar has been dissolved.
When it begins to drip from the tube
it is caught in tin pals, and these
again, when full, are emptied into
large barrels drawn in a sleigh-the
most convenient vehicle for DRIVING
through the maze of trees and under
brush. Arriving at the boiling
the contents of the barrels run
down a spout into the boiling pan,
which is about six or eight feet long,
feet wide, and three Incl es deep.
1t is placed on a slight incline, to al
low the sap TO run down it into the re
ceptacle, at the end. In order that
the sap shall not run down too fast TO
get thoroughly boiled by the fire which
is kept constantly burning underneath
it is checked by thin strips of wood
laid across the pan. and which only
allow about an inch of space through
which it can pass. The nearer the
sap gets to the lower end of the PAL
the thicker it becomes, until, when it
reaches the final receptacle, it is that
beautiful clear brown color and has
acquired that delicious taste that has
so many limitations and no equals
The price of the syrup at the boiling
house itself is usually a dollar and
quarter a gallon. Maple sugar is prac-
tically maple syrup in a solidifed
form, caused by a continuation of the
boiling process, and, as it nee, s~sitates
the use of more sap, 1t is naturally
more expensive.
