Chamberlain, 8. D.. April 14.-Hot or
cold. wet or dry, the Milwaukee
pontoon bridge at Chamberlain rarely
fails to get kicked out Of commission
three times each ~year--twice from ice
n the spring and once again from the
hriftwood of the usual June rise. The
second run of Ice came down the river
! few days g and put the bridge out
~ business for the second time this
i.prlng. The last Ice run came so sud-
ienly and unexpected that one Of the
passenger trains which belongs east Of
ihe river was left on the west side. a
!!orce is now at work on repairs and IL
IS expected the bridge will again be
ready for use by the latter part of the
week. There is evident need of a real
bridge across the river here.

STATE WINS TAX CLAIM
AGAINST RANKIN ESTATE

Sioux Falls, S. D., April 9.-An i'm
portant suit instituted In accordance
with the provisions of the state in
heritance tax law, after litigation ex-
tending over several months, has been
won by States Attorney Martin Bergh,
of this county. After losing in the
county court in this city the admins
traitor of the estate of the late Jason
Lee Rankin has decided, upon the adj
vice OF the attorneys for the estate to
pay the inheritance tax OF $752.5 levied
on the estate and not to continue the
litigation.
Rankin was an eastern man. who
died some months ago. and Who had a
great deal of property in South Dako-
ia. That part of his estate situated in
South Dakota is valued at $685. $50, and
$4,000 of this is in government bonds.
The probate court levied an inheritance
tax of s752. 80 on the estate after $50, 600
had been held exempt. The attorneys
for the estate held that no portion Of
the $4,000 In government bonds could
be taxed. n that as there were less
than $40, 900 left after the government
bonds We're deducted. no tax could be
levied against the estate.

wait" was all that Sara had said,
but he took heart. He was beginning
to look upon her as a sorceress. A
week ago he had felt sorry for her;
his heart had been touched by her
transparent misery. Today he saw
her in another light altogether; as the
determined, resourceful calculating
woman who, having failed to attain a
certain end, was now intensely, keenly
interested in the development of an
other of totally different nature. He
could not feel sorry for her today.
Hetty deliberately had placed her
self in their hands, withdrawing from
the conference shortly before Vivian's
arrival to give herself over to gloomy
conjectures as to the future, not only
for herself, but for the man she loved
and the woman she worshiped with
something of the fidelity of beaten
dog.
At later conference participated in
by Sara, Booth and Mr.. Carroll, the old
lawyer spoke plainly.
Now are you both willing to give
serious consideration to the plan pro-
pose? Take time to think it over. No
harm will come to Miss Castleton,
am confident. There will be a nine
days sensation, but, after all, it is the
best thing for everybody. You pro-
pose living abroad, Booth, so what are

Mr.. Carroll, / have this to say to your
suggestion: l for one am relentlessly
opposed to the plan you advocate
There is no occasion for this matter to
go to the public. A trial, you say
would be mere formality. l am not
so sure of that. Why put poor Hetty' s
head in the lions mouth at this late
stage, after l have protected her SC
| carefully all these months? Why, take
the risk? We know she is innocent
Isn't it enough that we acquit her in
our hearts? No, cannot consent, and
l hold both of you to your promises
There is nothing more | can say
my dear Sara" said Carroll, shaking
his head gloomily, except to urge you
to think it over very seriously. Re
member, it may mean a great deal to
| her-and to our eager young friend
here. Years from now, like bolt from
the sky, the truth may come out in
some way. Think of what it would
mean then"
| Sara regarded him steadily. There
are but four people who know the

ly that Hetty or Brandon will tell the
doing SO. That leaves me as the sole
peril. Is that what you would imply,
my dear friend?"
Not at ALL" he cried hastily. mot
at all. L"
That's all tommy-rot, Sara" cried
Booth earnestly. 1--WE just couldn't
have anything to fear from you"
With curious inconsistency, she
shook her head and remarked: "Of
course, you never could be quite easy
in your minds. There would always
be the feeling of unrest. Am l to be
trusted, after all? I have proved my
self to be vindictive schemer. What
assurance can you and Hetty have that
l will not turn against one OF the 9TH

satisfy personal grievance? How do
you know, Brandon, that l am not in

woman scorned. You have seen how l
smart under the lash. Well?"
But all that is impossible" said
Booth, his face clearing. You're not
In love with me, and never can be.
That! for your philosophy"
At the same instant he became
aware of the singular CLEAN in her
eyes; liquid. oriental glow that
seemed to reflect light on her lower
lids as she sat there with her face in
the shadow. Once or twice before he
had been conscious of the mysterious,
seductive appeal. He stared back at
her, almost defensively, but her gaze
did not waver. 1t was he who first
looked away, curiously uncomfortable.
