This mink coat makes no attempt

brothers, who were killed some time
ago at their farm near Lowry. No
new developments have come and it
is thought at this time that the mur-
ders may soon become numbered with
the unsolved mysteries.
Enough has been learned about the
brothers and their habits to warrant
the belief that something like four
teen thousand dollars disappeared from
their home following the crime. The
men kept most of their money in tin
and wooden boxes hidden ABOUT the
premises. The wooden box with it's
contents was overlooked by the mur-
derers but the tin boxes cannot be
found. individuals at whom the fin
ger of suspicion pointed after the
crimes have been absolved from all
connections with the tragedy and the
officers have absolutely no clue upon

THREE ANGRY MEN
OBJECT TO TAXES
F A Hancock, Morris Contractor,
Interested in Novel Lawsuit
at Veblen, S. D.

Because three farmers at Veblen,
S. D., are angry over the prospects of
increased school taxes F. A. Hancock.
the we'll known and popular contract
or in Morris, may be the loser to the
extent of several thousand dollars.
They have started law suit at Web
len and Mr.. Hancock will 60 there
next Monday to learn the result of the
first round in the legal battle.
Some time ago the Veblen school
district voted to bond in the amount
of $25, 900 for new school building.
the district had recently been extend
ed and the proposition on bonds and a
new building carried by large mai
ority. The school board advertised for
bids and Mr.. Hancock was the sue
cessful bidder for the wosk of erect
ing the new school house. A few
weeks ago he began the work, some
of the material is already on the
ground and more is on the way.
Soon after the work was started the
farmers living in remote part Of the
district asked to be detached from the
district. They said they objected to
the increased taxes, and had other
reasons. Their petition was rejected
and they brought injunction proceed
ings restraining Mr.. Hancock from
further progress pending suit with
the school board. The hearing will
take place next Tuesday and it is
very likely that whichever side wins
the first round the other will appeal
the case unless compromise can be
arranged. Mr.. Hancock has no voice
in the matter but he is anxious that
the warning factions settle the matter
so that he may know just what to do.
He has considerable money already
invested in material for the building
and his men are ready to 60 to work

REIMER'S BROTHER
ON KAISER'S LIST
Synnes Man Hears How Rela-
tives in Germany Have Fought
English for Ten Months

Carl Reimers, we'll known and
well liked farmer in the town of Syn
mes. has received a letter from rela-
tives in Germany telling of the pro-
gress of the war. The letter was
written six weeks ago and was for
warded through a brother in Iowa.
From this letter Mr.. Reimers learns
that he had a brother and two nephews
in the trenches near Antwerp which
city they helped take and where the
fighting was extremely hot some
time ago. They we're with the
Kaisers troops under Won Kluck when
he started his spectacular march in
to Belgium and France at the begin
ming of the war. When the letter
was written all of them were we'll
and had escaped all sorts of bullets
and disease.
Mr.. Reimers has been in America
twelve years about, four of which
have been spent in Stevens county.
He has vivid memory of conditions
in the province of Holstein where he
was born and bought up. At the time
he lett the country was prosperous the
taxes were high and the military
spirit was everywhere although nobody
expected war. The letter states busi-
ness is going on at the usual pace in
his home town but there is a marked
decrease in the male population. Wo-
men were taking up the burden with.
out complaining, and when news came
from the front telling that husband
or son or father had been killed few
tears are shed. Remarkably few
of the soldiers from Mr.. Reimers' old
home had been killed, the letter
states. More had been expected to
fall before the iron storms poured up
on them.
1 A letter from one Of the nephews
shortly before the Reimers letter left
Germ any states the men were becom-
ming accustom ed to trench life.
While the bullets whistle over their
heads and there are frequent roars
from distant cannon the men play
their monographs, smoke cigarettes
and even read the German new
papers. The men have plenty of
food and chocolate candy. A strange
sour beverage has displaced beer. The
letter states disease is practically un.
known among the men in the trenches.
The wounded and dead are removed
almost as soon as they fall, accord.
ing to the letter.
Mr.. Reimers states he believes he
has cousin his own age who is
with the artillery corps.
Nothing was said about him and
he is wondering if he is still alive.
