HOLDS LIVE
Sioux Falls Man Plays With Reptile
Caught Near Pe%nitentiary.

Sioux Falls, July 2.-"He is per-
fectly tame, won't hurt anybody, but
don't try to play with him unless you
know how" said f. Fl. Perry as he
held a three foot rattlesnake in his
bare hand and watched his slow
movements along his arm. He had
captured the snake on a rock near
the penitentiary as ii lay there in the
sun. The snake is three feet three
inches in length and has five rattles.
When annoyed it suddenly curled
and struck a yard stick near ii EN-
bedding its fangs in the soft wood
which was Immediately discolored by
the injection of the poison from the
fangs. A number of rattlesnakes
have been found near the old rock
pile and il was after hearing of these
discoveries that Mr.. Perry started
out to find a snake. He had not
hunted long when he came upon one
lying on a stone. Perry picked il up
by first taking hold Of the back of
the neck of the reptile, preventing it
from striking him and then put it in
a tox.
In exhibiting it he let il move
about while he held it and the spec
tators shuddered at the thought of
what would happen if the snake
should suddenly raise itself and
strike. No one offered to assist Perry
in handling his pet.

STATE FAIR
improvements I'm Grounds Which
VIII BE Appreciated BY
Fair Goers.

Huron, July Former visitors
to the South Dakota state fair who
attend the 1914 exposition at Huron
will be in a strange place so far as
the arrangement of the grounds is
concerned. State Engineer III. NJ.
Derr has had the grounds ~resurveyed
and replatted, which mean that the
roads, alleys and all streets, includ-
ing Midway and Machinery row will
all be differently located and arrang-
ed. The new plan will make all
parts of the grounds readily accessi-
BILE, while the artistic effect will be
strengthened.
One new feature which will be ap-
precIated, is the laying of walks from
the main entrance on Third street to
Machinery hall and Dairy building.
Main entrances will now be located
on Third street, with up-to-date turn
stile system for foot passengers and
| vehicles. Exits will be located on
Second and Fourth streets and the
west end of Third street. Train en-
| frances will remain as they were last
year. Automobiles will be parked on
the ground on the south side of Third
| street, a short distance from main
entrance, and will be guarded by de-
| tachments of the state militia.
State fair buildings are being re-
painted, and when the gates are
opened on Monday, September IA.
the whole grounds will be spick and
span. A check room and information
bureau is being constructed near the
entrance for the convenience Of fair
visitors. A new mess house will also
be built for the militia, while en-
largements equivalent to two new
barns will be made on the swine
buildings.

AFTER CANDLES MONEY
Man at Chehalis, Wash, Makes
Sight Draft On the Ex-senator.

Tacoma, Wash, July "A Ease
that is deserving of a place among
the records Of high finance came to
light in Chehalis Saturday when the
Chehalis National bank received a
letter from the Dakota National bank
in which a draft which had been
drawn on Ex-senator Robert J.. Gam
BILE of Yankton, s. D., was returned
TO the bank from which it was orig
inally drawn. The high fnancier
was ole Anderson, who blew into
Chehalis about three weeks ago and
began to look over farms in this vi
cinity, with the air of an intending
purchaser. Having arranged for the
purchase of the Phillips place, a
short distance south of Chehalis, An
derson took the real estate men to
the Chehalis National bank and had
the draft on Ex-senator Gamble
drawn, stating that some three years
ago he had sold a South Dakota farm
and had put the money in the Da-
kota National bank and given the GER
tificate to the ex-senator, who is an
attorney, to keep for him until he
found another farm to buy. On the
strength of the fact that the draft
had been drawn, Anderson went to
several stores in Chehalis and at
tempted to make purchases OF farm
machinery and other supplies and

To SHOW CAUSE
LAKE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
SERVED WITH ALTERNATIVE
WRIT OF MANDAMUS.

The Madison saloon embroglio,
through the activity of attorneys for
the saloonmen, will have a court air
ing with the least possible delay. An
alternative writ of m%andamus signed
by Judge Jones has been served upon
County Commissioners Geo. Sim
mons and VIM. Curtis, citing them to
appear before Judge Jones in Sioux
Falls at IL o'clock tomorrow morn
ing and either approve the bonds of
the saloonmen or show aus for
their failure to approve them.
City Auditor Rae has been sub
poenaed to appear with the books of
the city to show that an election on
the license question vas regularly
held in Madison; that there was a
majority of votes in favor of issuing
licenses: that the city commission
granted the licenses according to
law, etc. This is to prove that the
law has been complied with in all of
the preliminaries incident to the pre-
s~entation of the bonds to the county
commissioners for their approval,
and which has been denied by them.
The county commissioners were in
session this forenoon discussing the
situation, whether to resist the man
damus or allow il to default, and
finally decided TO proceed to Sioux
| Falls as ordered by Judge Jones.
This was the status of the case as
we go to press. But the commission
| ers could put an end to further pro-
| ceedings by approving the bonds, as
they did in May under similar cir
cumstances when they at first reject
ca the bonds and afterward approved
them after having been summoned
10 appear before Judge Jones to show
cause for their failure TO approve.
The county commissioners in SEES
| sion this afternoon rejected the sa-
loon bond of Andrew Hagley of Rut-
land. This puts the whole county In
/ the dry column.

Comrade Oliver Bailey and wife
returned this morning from Lewis

There will be an examination for
the position of minor field clerk, re-
ciamatiOn service, held in this city

metic, letter writing, penmanship
and copying from plain copy. Com
p%etitors may also be examined in

writing. For further information
and application blanks call at post

Perisho dispatch: Through the
failure of the board of county com
+ missioners of Lyman county to ap-
prove the bonds of those who had
made application for saloon licenses
for the year commencing yesterday,
every saloon in Lyman county has
been closed and the county today is
dry so far as saloons are concerned
Notwithstanding that several towns
i'm the county at the license elections
in April decided in favor of open sa-
looms. The old licenses terminated
at midnight last night. The county
commissioners will hold a meeting
July I, and it is expected that at that
time the bonds of the applicants for
saloons will be approved. However,
under a decision of the state supreme
court, county commissioners can, if
they wish, indefinitely refuse to APP
prove these bonds and thus make
their counties dry" territory.

also arranged for a team of horses.
Most of the stores refused to give
him credit, but agreed to hold the
goods he wanted until the money
came from South Dakota. In the
meantime also on the strength of the
draft, Anderson obtained money to
buy meals from the real estate men
and from other parties, always prom
Using to repay about ten-fold when
his money came. A few days ago
when a telegram came announcing
the refusal to honor the draft, An
derson was lying in the county Jail
on a drunk and disOrderly charge,
but has since been released and his
whereabouts now is not known. S.
o. Hanger, cashier of the Dakota Ma
tional bank, stated in his letter that
IN attempt similar to this one to OBJ
tain money from Senator Gamble had
been made about five years ago, pre-
sumably by the same man.

DIR. NICHOLSON
Will Not Become President of Cornell
College at Mt. Vernon. la.

Mt. Vernon, Ia, July 2.-The pres
idency of Cornell college, made va
cant by the recent resignation of
James +. Harlan, is yet untitled. The
recent announcement that DR.. Thorn
as Nicholson of New York was to be
the new president has been nullified
by the refusal of the executive com
mittee of the board of education, IN
der whose employment DR.. Nicholson
now works, to accept his resignation
rendered on his election to the head
ship at Cornell.
DR.. Nicholson was appointed as
secretary Of the board of education
of the Methodist church by the gen
eral conference of the church six
years ago. The following general
conference four years later reap
pointed him for another q~uadrennial
period which Is now half up. The ex-
eeutive committee of the board of
education contends that it has no au-
thority to release an officer appoint
ed by the general conference. They
further contend that DR.. Nicholson's
| services i'm his present position are Of
| too great value to the church as a
whole to permit him to center his eff
forts and influence at any one school.
Those who direct the affairs of
Cornell college are greatly disap-
! pointed over the outcome and there is
| reason to believe that DR.. Nicholson
himself had also hoped to be allowed
to take up the new work, since he
had cordially accepted the election to
| the presidency on the sole condition
| that he was able to cur honorable
release from his present contract.
The trustees of Cornell are de
| termined to continue their search for
a president who will be strong
| enough that the college may not suf-
| fer through their inability to secure
| so eminent a man as DR.. Nicholson

RATES CUT
To One Cent a Mile for Homeseekers
Coming TO South Dakota.

Aberdeen, July 2.-While in Alb
erdeen yesterday, Harry Hunter of
Chicago, general agent Of the Mil
waukee railroad, made the announce
ment that the road had decided to
make a homeseekers' rate of ] cent
a mile each way to South Dakota
points, applying to Mobridge and
points west. The rates will be eff
fective on Monday and Tuesday of
each week, to parties of five or more.
This rate is much better than was
anticipated. The Aberdeen CONNER
cial club had been working for a re-
s~toration of the old rate of N fare
plus 50 for the round trip, but the
rate granted is much lower, and was
recommended TO the road by Mr..
Hunter on account Of the splendid
crop prospects in South Dakota and
the general prosperity prevalent west
of the Missouri river i'm South Dakota
where new settlers are most needed.

GIRLS FILL DATES
And Tell Parents They Are Delayed
by Long Working Hours.

Lincoln. Neb., July 2.-Desire of
some girls and a few married women
TO 60 direct from their work to
places where they can meet friends
and be entertained by them has led
TO the filing of numerous complaints
of female labor law violation with
the state labor commission. The
complaints have come from parents
of the girls and husbands of the
women-because the female laborers
themselves insisted that the delays
i'm getting home were due to their
long working hours. When the labor
commissioner began Investigations
and learned the truth the complaints
fell through and someone became
sadder but wiser thereby.
