Sioux Falls. S. D.. Sept. 20.-The
board of referees has concluded taking
testimony in the disharment proceed
ings against Attorney George w. Egan.
As the defense was not ready to take
up oral arguments, at the completion
OF the testimony, the referees decided

OTHER ASPIRANTs GIVE WAY
TO C. A. CHRISTOPHERSON

Sioux Falls. $. D.. Sept. 22.-Indica-
tons now are that Sioux Fails win
give q clear field to the Congressional
aspirations OF C. A. Christopherson,
who has definitely decided to be a can
didate for the republican nomination
IN the First district, in opposition to
the incumbent. Congressman C. H. Dill
lon. Several Sioux Falls men have
been credited with notions to enter the
congressional campaign, but a confer
elce was held, to agree on a single
candidate, and q decision was effected,
without trouble, to get behind Mr..
Chflstopherson's candidacy. AT the 1915
session of the South Dakota Iegisla-
tlIre Mr.. Christopherson was peaker
OF the house and was a highly popular
official. His entry into the congress
sional campaign in the First district
apparently gives assurance of a close
hsht IN the primaries there next spring.

Mitchell corn palace, September 81 to
October Q, is he mex big amusement
event in South Dakota. and the general
entertainment offerings this year are
greater than ever before. The corn
palace, in Itself, is a work of art and

crate in the way OF corn effects ever
have been displayed in the United
States. The beautiful palace of corn,

daily program, including Signor Fer

PLANK FAILS AS
RESCUE PITCHER;
NEWARK FEDS WIN
Errors and BunChed Hits
Give MCKechnie'S Men
Four Runs in Ninth.
[By Telegraph 10 Tho Tribune. ]

st. Louis, Mo, July 28.-Edd,c Plank
proved a poor rescue pitcher here to-
day. The Newark Feds pounded him
for four runs in the ninth inning, and
defeated the st. Louis Fielders by a
score of to 6.
Plank was called on to relieve Dave
Davenport, the six foot seven inch
pitcher, who although peppered by the
visitors for ten hits in eight innings,
kept the run tally down to three. In
the ninth he gave base on balls, was
found for a single, which together with
an error and two outs enabled Newark
to score four runs.
Three Newark twirlers were used by
Bill Mckenzie, the manager. George
Kaiserling worked for the first eight
innings. He held St. Louis to six
scatter ed hits, but his six bases on balls
helped the LONE teaiL TO pile up its
lead. Earl Moseley started to pitch
the ninth, but when St. Louis began to
take kindly to his offerings, Cy Falken-
berg was rushed into the fray. With
one run scored, and runner on the
bases, Falkenberg forced the next two
batters to hit easy infeld tops. st.
Louis failed TO make the best OF its
opportIn,tie., as C.even runners were
left stranded on the bases.
Johnson, the St. Louis shortstop,
made half of his teams six hits, while
Campbell, Scheer and McKechnie were
again prominent in the Newark victory,
witt their stick work.
The core follows:
