ATTACKS GIRLSTO
!. CUT OFF HAIR
UNKNOWN MAN AT ABERDEEN
MAKES TWO NIGHT At
TEMPTS But in VAIN.

Aberdeen, S. D.-During the past
two weeks mysterious attacks have
been made upon two young girls of
this city by a youngish appearing
man. whose object is apparently to
cut off their hair.
The last attempt vas made Tues
day night on Mildred Reese, daugh-
ter of Mrs. M. X. Reese who resides
at 207 Second avenue, Miss Edna
Mildred and her aunt. Miss Edna
Evans, and Mrs. Daisy Williams, the
latter of Leola, were returning to
the Reese residence from the Idle
Hour about 10 O'Clock.
After turning the corner from
Main street onto Second avenue
southwest the three reached Nc
Arthurs when they noticed that a
man was following them. He con-
tinued to follow them unrll they had
passed the Aberdeen Auto & Supply
company when he caught up with
them, grabbed the girls hair and
raised an object he held in his right
hand which looked very much like a
large pair of shears.
Mrs. Williams and Miss Evans
sprang at the man and raised an
outcry, and the man took to his heels
down an alley close by. The author
tiles were notified but as yet have
failed to locate their man.

GIVEN $50 DAMAGES
FOR DISEASED HORSES

Chamberlain, S. D. Damages
amounting to $3.50 were awarded to
w. T. Howard in the I5rule county
circuit court here yesterday for his
losses ON Il herd of horses he bought
in December, 1912, from Fred lIar-
ris, and which were later condemned
and killed by the state veterinarian
on account of CHAMBERS.
In his suit. Mr.. Howard asked
for $1,000 owe and above the amount
allowed and paid by the state, claim
ing that he had received the infec-
ton through the horses purchased
from Harris. In defense, Harris al
legged that CHAMBERS did not appear in
the Howard herd until many months
after the animals had been purchased.
The law suit created much inter
est among stock raisers and dealers
in live stock, as it raised the ques-
ton of warranty. The jury was out
all night Wednesday and returned it's
verdict AT oon on Thursday.

Stanley counties, and probably sew
eral others where the county propos-
al meetings were dispensed with on
account OF the expense attached. In
Stanley county it applies to all par

IN JOINT debate in the city auditorium
on the evening of February 10 h

l.lss along this line. i am not a can

Leader as a paper, or myself as an
ealtor, are not issues. My wspa
mas stated painly in print the reasons
why 1T is unwilling to support Mr..
crawford for senator. If Mr.. Craw-
ford would answer those charges he
might stem the awful current of NIB
'ic OPINION running against him, but
SO far as have seen, he has not at
tempted to answer them. He is charg-
ed with being a progressive in South
loakota and a reactionary in Wash
tnston. He is charged with talking
larlff reform in South Dakota and
voting with Aldrich and the stand
patter5 in Washington. He is charged
with trying to exempt the railroads
from accountability under the Sher-
man antitrust law. He is charged
with trying to exempt all profession
al men from the payment of an in
come tax and to put all of the bur
deh upon the business men and the
farmers. He is charged with having
been one OF the leaders who in 1872
aehled to republicans the right to
vote for their candidate for presi-
ueht. lie is charged with being the
aead OF a machine that has increas-
ed state X by PSI per cent since
1906. He is charged With the betrayal
OF friends to a degree never before
KNOW in the politics of this state. He
Is charged with the violent abuse of

BURGLARS DROP LOOT
AT SHOUTS OF BOYS

Irene, S. D.-Some young boys
prevented the robbery of a local bust
ness house. They CHANGED to be near
a meat storage warehouse quite late
in the evening when the suspicious
actions of two men who appeared on
the scene attracted their attention.
They watched the two men, saw them
enter the storage building, and then
u little later .hey saw the two men
reappear with all the meat they could
carry. They had just started down the
alley at the ear of the building with
their loot when the boys shouted
Cops" at the top of their voices. The
two burglars instantly dropped their
load and made their escape in the
darkness, leaving meat scattered
through the alley. Their identity is
known aud arrests are expected to
be made in connection with the case.

COOPERATIVE
PAYS $500, 900 TO PATRONS

Clark, S. D.-One of the greatest
co operative ereameries in the state
or northwest is the local
which to date has distributed nearly
100000 among the farmers OF this
vicinity in payment for cream pur-
chased during the years ii mas been
in operation. For cream purchased
during 1913 a total OF $29.7O9.99
was paid its farmer patrons. The
distribution of the asst sums by the
creamery has been an important fac
tor in the prosperity of the farmers
of the surrounding region. The law
under which the cooperative COM
pany is organized provides that a
dividend OF eight per cen nav be
paid, but after this is done nothing
further goes to the stockholders UNI
'il a sinking fund of so per cent
snail be accumulated for new euuip-
nlent and other necessary expenses.
In order to secure dividends the
stockholders must be actual patrons
OF the creamery. The institution was
established in 1896, and during the
hrst twelve months of its existence
an aggregate OF $3,245 was paid pa
IRONS for cream purchased. In 1900
inns had increased to $24,969.96 For
the year 1905 the creamery paid a
total of $64,913.S0 in payment for
cream. The amount of the annual
payments then fell off for a few
years, but during the past four years
nave been steadily increasing, with
a possibility of the institution again
reaching the same h%igh-water mark
IN 1905. and perhaps exceeding this.
The a amount distributed by the
creamery among the farmers during
the time it has been in operation is
$3.50, 194.77.

With the record cold wave of the
last night and today, Old Man Win
ter, who had been consigned to an
early grave, controlled the situation
completely. Temperatures in the
state ranged from nearly 80 degrees
below zero on the western border to
about 10 below on the eastern edge.
In Mitchell, the mercury plunged
from B below zero late yesterday af-
%ternoon to Is below during the night.
This minimum temperature was
maintained until nearly noon, when
the rays of Old Sol took a bit of the
edge OF the chill. 1t was not believ-
ed, however, that any appreciable
raise in temperature would be noted
before tomorrow.
Colder in West.
Reports at the railroad Offices this
forenoon indicated that at Murdo and
Rapid City. the temperature early
today was about &c degrees below
zero, With probably colder marks in
this extreme western border. At
Aberdeen the mercury this morning
registered is degrees below zero. AT
Sioux Falls, the minimum reached
was 10 degrees below.
Coupled with the intense cold to-
day, a strong northwest wind,
winch whipped the flying particles of
snow until they stung like sand,
made weather conditions unusually
severe. The wind blew steadily

ing during the night.

This hindered railroad traffic

The mildness of the winter tllus
