RIVAL LOVER
USES POISON
ATTEMPT MADE TO DESTROY
CATTLE IN CONTEST FOR
AFFECTIONS OF GIRL IN
TRIP COUNTY.

Deadwood, S. D.-Rivalry for the
affections of a girl to whom both
we're paying attention is alleged by
the authorities of Trip county to
have caused Tony Miller, a home
steader to have poisoned cattle be-
longing to Freeland Harder, his
rival. According to Harder, the two
men had words over the girl but he
paid little attention to it until he
noticed that forty head of his Poll
Durham cettle had been transferred
to another pasture where they were
feeding on corn, and some of them
appeared i'll. An examination showed
that the corn had been sprinkled
with paris green and tracks led from
the spot to Miller's home. Sheriff
wood was notified and placed Miller
under arrest and he was later ar
raigned before Justice Gable and
held for the circuit court in the sum
of $500. Four of the cattle have
since died and others appear to be
dying. Miller has heretofore borne
a good reputation but is said to be
quick tempered. Both men reside
near Colome. Miller later confessed
TO the authorities and paid Harder
for his loss and will throw himself
on the mercy of the court

ON BATTLE FIELD
REV. Il. Il. BARNETT. OF S,
MAR1'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH
IN LIlEGE MONTH AGO YES
TERDAY.

The armies of the European pow
ers are struggling at present over
a country which a month ago was
peaceful and quiet. Rev. +. b. Bar
nett, rector of st Mary's Episcopal
church, ON July 8, Il month ago yes
terday, was in Liege, the scene of
the bloody struggle between the
Germans and Belgians last week.
Rev. Mr.. Barnett, who landed in
New York a week ago Saturday at
ter g summer spent in Europe, ira
versed much of the little country of
Belgium by rail and afoot. After
finishing his summer study at Ok
ford and Cambridge, in England, he
crossed the Channel into Belgium.
After a short stay at Antwerp, he
went down the Merz river to Namur.
which is expected to be the scene
of the next great battle. He then
went on to Liege.
From Liege, Mr.. Barnett went
across the border into Germany with
his two companions to Aix-La-Chap-
pelle. The party then went to
Cologne and then down the Rhine
to Mainz. With its great castles ana
natural Notifications along its stony
banks. the great river looked ready
to stem any invasions.
AT Mainz, Mr.. Barnett and party
turned west and went into Swtzer-
land and then up into France to
Paris. AT Paris they saw the start
of the grand priz balloon race. The
whole country covered on the con-
tinent by the party is now bristling
with armies in the greatest battle
struggle of modern times.

DANGEROUS.

Mosquitoes, flies and other in
sects, which breed quickly in gar
bage pals. ponds of stagnant water,
barns, musty places. etc, are carriers
of disease. Every time they bite you,
they inject poison into your system
from which some dread disease may
result. Get a bottle of Sloan's Lini-
ment. 1t is antiseptic and a few
drops will neutralize the infection
caused by insect bites or rusty nails.
Sloan's Liniment disinfects Cuts,

view that nothing can now avert war,
"or If not war what the late William

Zone cannot pretend to be surprised
that this should be the end of the re-
fusal of the United States to recog-

good many other nations which in
other circumstances would have
tackled the hornets nest, but this
case is one in which the Monroe doc

heavy obligations from which there is
no escape"

Our sympathy with the Americans
does not blind us to the perils of the
course to which they seem about to

PRESIDENTS VIEW OF CRISIS
Situation Need Not Necessarily
Eventuate in War,

EVentudte IN war.
Washington, April 21.-President
Wilson says the present situation in
Mexico need not necessarily eventu-
ate in war. The United States on
many occasions, he said, had enforced
it's demands, had blockaded other
countries, and had even bombarded
and destroyed towns to enforce it's
demands without ever formally de-
claring war. This, the president said,
encouraged him in the belief that
after he had authorization from con-
sress, he would be able to take steps
which would drive Huerta from his
present defiant position.
The president said he did not want
the newspaper men to get the impress
sion that this country has any wish
to fight the real people of Mexico.
He said events might cause sudden
change in any program He said he
would make his plans from hour to
hour. In effect, the president said his
position was that he wanted full rec
osn1tion OF the dignity and honor of
the United States in this instance and
sufficient guarantee that incidents of
this character will not happen again.
The president said that his infor-
nation from Mexico City was that
the representatives of the foreign gov
ernments there had urged Huerta to
yield, and that they were still doing
so. The president said that the army
and navy will be held in check to
await developments. He said the
newspaper men must be careful to
get this point of view, insisting that
he has not lost patience.

Colonel William A. Skunk, command
Ing the Central department of the

II have received general orders to

airy line only 1900 men remain under
his command. OF these $50 are at
Fort Riley, Kan. and $50 are at Fort
Sheridan, III. The others are on re-

WILSON DENIES

Declares United States is

EXPLAINS THE SITUATION

Says Present Trouble Is Between
This Government and a Person Call
Ing Himself Provisional President
Of Our Sister Republic.
Washington, April 21.-The follow
ing portion of talk by President
Wilson to the Washington correspond.
ents on the Mexican situation was au.
thorized at the White House:
II want to say to you gentlemen, do
not get the impression that there is
about to be war between the United
States and Mexico. That is not the
outlook at present, at all.
I'm the first place, in no conceivable
circumstances will We fight the peo-
pie of Mexico. 49,
ave are their friends and want to
help in every way that we can to re-
cover their rights and their govern
ment and their laws, and for the pres.
ent am going to congress to present
a special situation and seek their APP
proval to meet that special situation.
1T is only an issue between this
government and a person calling him
self the provisional president of Mex
leo, whose right to call himself such
we never have recognized in any way.
$50 that l had feeling of uneasi-
ness as I read the papers as if the
country were getting on fire with war
enthusiasm. I have no enthusiasm
for war; I have an enthusiasm for
justice and for the dignity of the
United States, but not for war; And
this need not eventuate in war if we
handle it with firmness and prompt
ness"
