Coffey Makes Use of New Rul-
ing in Civil Service Rights

Aberdeen. Oct. 30. James K. Coffey,
democratic state chairman of Soath
Dakota, and recently named as in.
ternal revenue collector for the dis.
trict of North and South Dakota, was
quick to take advantage of the new
order removing deputies in the internal
revenue service from TIE civil service
classified list.
Following very promptly after the
signing of the bill by President Will
son, he has removed two deputies who
had been in the Office for many years,
j. q. Leather and /. v. McGladery,
designating in their places John III.
Downing, of Blunt. s. D., and J. W.
Nee, of Centerville, S. d.
Mr.. Cotfey made permanent the tenn.
porary appointments of I. I'll. Faus and
Katherine E. Moore as deputy collec.
tors. Both had served long under
the republican administration in the
local Office. Neither Mr.. Coffey nor the
deputies who were supplanted would
discuss the causes for the action.

The county board of insanity passed on

known as "Midge'' Murphy, yesterday
afternoon. committing her to the state
hospital for the insane at Yanktop.
She has been confined in the city Jail
for a couple of days, arriving night
before last from Pierre and being at
once taken up by the police. She was
also arrested by the local police about
the middle of the mouth on her way to
Pierre, having occupied the time she
had between trains here to acquire
such a bad .'chloral jag that she was
not permitted to board the train when
it was ready to leave. "Midge" Muir
| ply is not unknown here, some years
| ago being located in this city. Years
of dope have made such changes in
her. however, that she would ~scarcely

one and undoubtedly she will have
better treatment and more comfort in
the asylum than she has had for some
