Bryant.-Albert Everson, a farmer
living near here, had about 500 bushels
of corn which he carried over from his
crop of last year. He had practically
decided to feed it to his stock when a
buyer of seed corn appeared at his
farm yesterday and offered him $3.50
per bushel for the 500 bushels. The
offer was accepted. The corn was
wanted for seed, it having been demon
strated that most of the corn raised
in South Dakota this year is unfit for
seed because t did not mature roper
ly in advance of killing frosts owing to
the frequent rains during September
and the forepart of October. Because
of the scarcity it is believed seed corn
will have a market value in South Da-
kota next spring of So or 81 per bushel.

come from authorities in surrounding
towns, who had been sent a descrip-
ton of the fugitive, it is feared that
he will not be apprehended unless he
should reappear at some of his old
haunts. 1t is thought probable that he
walked to a nearby town and boarded
a freight train under cover of darkness.
He disappeared between the time sup
per was served to him and shortly
after 9 o'clock at night, when the
sheriff went to look at the furnace
which heats the Jail and court house
building. Nothing had been broken.

Can you tell me the disadvantage OF
meteor wire contact points in a mag
neto as compared with platinum points?
Platinum usually is not used alone
for magnetic interrupters, there being a
percentage Of iridium added to give the
points greater resistance to hammer
action which they must withstand
when in use. Platinum-iridium is bet
ter than meteor wire for this purpose.
Meteor metal Is a steel alloy with great
resistance to heat and gives good re-
suits.

ROMANCE ON HIGH
 SEAS RESULTS IN
 A MARRIAGE HERE
Interned German Officer
 Weeds Miss Bertha K1agges of Bridgeport.

fs The story of a r%rnance that had it's inception on the Atlantic ocean be- came known today when the illness of Heinrich F'roemke. fourth. officer of the Harnburg-American liner Penn sylvanias became so acute that he had to be operated upon.
 F'roenalxe recently obtained the hand in marriage of Miss Bertha Glagges Eof 1485 Park avenue, this city. His Eship is iTlterned and he has a leave Fof absence. for the time he remains in the United States.
 An affection of the stomach that has become serious necessitated an operation and today at the Ga1en hos pitaI his condition is said to be sat isfa,ctory. He has suffered gastric troubles for several years.
 -N Froemke, whose home is in Ham burg, has made many trips over the Atlantic during his career as an offic- CT on passenger carrying ocean liners. Several years ago he met Miss K1ag- ges, when she was on a trip from Germany. The friendship, begun on the well filled steamer declzs. ripened as time lenegthened and the couple saw much of each other.
 He came to Bridgeport and here acquaintanceship rapidly ripened in to love and wedlock in this city about three weeks ago. He. has since resid- ed at the home of his bride.
 pr. J. w. Wright and Hermann Duesing. a personal friend of Froemke, are attending at the operation.

It will be seen by these figures that the total cost of the build ings already complete or in course of construction here now is greater than the past two years put together The figures are for the calendar year. The building commissioners make out their reports for a fiscal year beginning HO
 Included are masseve factory build ings which the Renlfnston 3skarests have built These alone aggregate several million dollars.

The new business block now occupied by the tDorsen Go. In Main street. hundreds of three-deck- CT tenement houses and many dwell tngs of brick or wood, some completed and others in the course of construc- ton, are also Included.
 Permits for buildings to cost S1,- 103, $40 were issued during the week of April IT, which marks high water for any one week in. the history of Bridgeport as far as the cost is con cerned. In this week four permits were granted, the number each week U. M. c. Co. for buildings which would cost more than $20O, 900 each.
 During the week commencing Feb. 13, six permits for buildings to cost ,5 D, se- smallest estimated cost for any week of the year. It is believed that be- fore the close of the year permits will have been granted for buildings to cost at least eight and a half million dollars.
 The weeks in which the permits ! were granter, the number each week and aggregated cost follows:
