POSTPONED
PRES. PERISHO WILL NOT FILL
ENGAGEMENT IN MADISON
TOMORROW.

The farmers meeting announced
to be held in Madison tomorrow aft
ernoon has been indefinitely postpon-
ed. The meeting was to have been
addressed by Pres. Perisho of State
college on the subject of agricul-
tural extension in which the Smith
Lever law was to have been present
ed to farmers for their consideration
with a view of organization in Lake
county. On account of farmers being
busy in their fields at this time plant
ing corn, 1t was decided that 1t would
be in%convenient for them to leave
their work to attend the meeting,
hence the postponement. The sub
ject to be discussed is of considerable
importance to farmers and 1t Is the
desire of Pres. Perisho that as many
as possible be present at the meeting
which will be at a future date to be
announced.

LICENSE ELECTION
Date Fixed for Recount of Votes at
Aberdeen.

Aberdeen, May 14.@Judge Thos.
l.. Bouck of the state circuit court
has fixed May IL as the date for the
hearing of the election contest insti-
tuted by A. l.. Ward, b. b. Ward and
the Sherman hotel over the result of
the vote on the license question at the
spring election. The vote resulted in
a tie and the license proposition was
declared defeated, but the contest
ants declare enough license votes
were thrown out on technicalities,
and enough illegal votes were cast
against license to change the result.
Accordingly, they contested the cleo
ton and Judge Bouck has fixed the
date for hearing as above. Both the
license and no-license advocates will
be represented by a strong array of
legal talent and a lively contest is
anticipated. The no-license support
ers threaten TO call a special election
to vote on a proposition to install a
municipal saloon should the hearing
develop that license has a legal ma
jority.

Jail and indicted by the grand jury.
His trial was set for the September
term of court. The boy would nee
essarily have to remain in jail all

Judge Anderson heard of the boys
plight and called him before him,
where he learned the boys story.
Attorney O'Dea, who had also learned
Of the story. insisted ON aiding the
boy, and he and Judge Anderson to-
gether purchased a return trip ticket
for the boy, after the judge had per
mitted him TO sign his Owl bonds.

DETECTIVE WORK
Newspaper Clew That Leads To Arrest
of Mail Clerk.

Deadwood, May 14.-How a st.
Paul newspaper was the means of
trapping John Dahl, a mail clerk on
the Mobridge-Aberdeen run, who has
just been sent to the federal peni-
tertiary for robbing the mails of
money, has come to light. The de-
tails of Dahl's operations and final
downfall are interesting and cover
nearly a years time.
Early last fall local postoffice au-
thorities found shortages in the mail
ed remittances from the postmaster
at Red Owl in Meade county. This
mail comes by way of Aberdeen.
Postofice Inspector Fleming, then of
this district, but now of Minnesota.
was put on the trail. Then shortages
from other offices began to be re-
ported the opening and ~resealing of
the letters somewhere IN route.
Finally a letter containing a remit
lance of $1,000 in currency dispatch
ed to the postoffice here arrived and
was found to have only a copy of a
st. Paul newspaper. then thirty hours
old. Then Inspector Fleming got
busy. He hurried to st. Paul and
proceeded to trace the exact course
of that newspaper from the minute
it left its st. Paul destination. He
found that it could not have pro-
ceeded further west than Mobridge,
when meo substituted it for the
currency in the letter. Then putting
other minor clews together, every
thing pointed to the guilt of Dahl
the Mobridge-Aberdeen clerk. First
Dahl denied his guilt. but on seeing
the evidence pile up he finally broke
down and confessed. He showed thu
detectives where he had secretet
most of the money he had abstractet
from the letters on his u and near
ly all of ii was recovered. Dahl wa
not a spender and previously ha'
borne a good reputation, but is be
lieved to have been obsessed with
get rich quick" idea.
