Fire Turpimte Which Produces Pain
less and Instant Death.

London, Sept. 28.-Remarkable
tales of engines of war are appearing
in all parts OF Europe. but nothing
has equaled the reports circulated
concerning new guns used by the
French which fire turpinite, a sub
stance said to produce instantaneous
and painless death for every living
thing within its reach.
Although 1t Is SO deadly in its work
turpinite cannot be objected to on
the ground that it violates humane
principles of war. In fact, 1t Is so
human that 1t must not be confused
with lyddite and other explosives
which have deadly fumes.
English correspondents have re-
ported that entire lines OF German
soldiers stood dead in their trenches
as q result Of the fumes from the
mysterious turpinite discharged by
the French in engagements along the
Marne. The dead Germans are re-
ported to have maintained a standing
posture and retained their rifles in
their hands, SO sudden and unusual
was the effect Of the new weapon.
instantaneous paralysis is said to be
caused by turpinite.
The French gun for the use of tur-
pinite is shrouded in as great mystery
as turpinite itself. Experts are re-
quired. it Is said. for the use Of the

GERMANS AT F~LANDREAU
Annual Convention of Alliance Is a
Big Success.

Flandreau, Sept. 2S.-Over 500
delegates attended the annual con-
vention of the South Dakota German
American alliance which was conclud-
ed at Flandreau Friday afternoon,
the total registration being 545. Hans
Demuth of Sioux Falls was reelected
president of the alliance for the third
time and was also chosen as delegate
to the national meeting of German
Americans which will be held in San
Francisco next year. Conrad Korne-
man of Sioux Falls was again named
secretary. The next convention will
be held at Eureka.
The convention which opened
Thursday and continued for two days
was one of the most successful in the
history of the alliance in this state
and much interest was taken by the
delegates in the proceedings of the
meeting.
President Wilson's neutral stand
on the European war was Endorsed
by the meeting, which also pleaded
for unbiased reports regarding the
war. The meeting praised the eff
forts made by the president to main
tain the neutrality of the United
States on all matters pertaining to
the a
Resolutions condemning prohibit
tion and woman suffrage al being un-
desirable and impracticable were
adopted by the meeting. The alliance
is strongly opposed to the prohibit
ton movement, favoring strict regu-
lation of the liquor traffic as the best
method of meeting the liquor ques-
ton.
The convention urged the legisla-
ture to pass a law giving newspapers
published in languages other than
English full legal standing as now en-,
joyed by the papers published in Eng

bership dues at a small amount per
year. so all of the women In the city
could be reached, as Ii is desired to
make the scope OF the new league as
wide as possible.
A committee was appointed to in
spect shops and stores and to investi-
gate scales of prices. This commit

shops" and these lists will be posted

ton and prices will be taken up, and
also the question of bringing the
product OF the farm to the consumer
at the cheapest price. Another conf
