The Hagenbeck Wallace Shows

For more than a quarter of a cen

ALMOST NARROWED
PEOPLE ON AMERICAN ISLAND,
NEAR CHAMBERLAIN, HAVE
TO BE FERRIED HOME.

Chamberlain. July 10. - Heavy
rains of Friday over this section
made but little impression on the
river until after the evening session
of the chautauqua had commenced,
when news was brought to the island
that the river had risen several feet
suddenly and that the railroad bridge
was going out. The heavy bridge
timbers falling in the current requir-
ed care on the part of the boatsmen
and with the dangerously swift cur
rent it took five hours to ferry tho
big crowd. which is usually done in
half an hour. Then the train from
the west had crossed the bridge TO
turn around and was obliged to re-
main on the east side, and another
train from Murdo was sent here tor
the accommodation of the west bound
passengers. As the bridge weakened
and fell after darkness set in, this
more than ever makes the people re-
alize the danger Of such a temporary
structure. A good part of it went
out during the night.
The heavy rains also forced out the
railroad dam east of Reliance. built
several years ago.

SWIMMING AT LAKE
ACROSS THE LAKE STUNT PULL
ED OFF BY LADY AND GEN
TLEMAN YESTERDAY.

Swimming at Lake Madison is a
popular pastime. and yesterday a
long swim was INDUCED in by Mr..
Floyd Benway of this city and Miss
nellie Brown of Sioux City. who is
camping at the lake with friends.
They successfully swan across the
lake, about a mile, the time consumed
in the feat being an hour and fifteen
minutes. They were followed by a
boat to avoid accident. Percy Scud-
der of this city started in the long
swim, but was compelled to seek the
safety of the boat on account of
cramps. The water was cold and the
swimmers were considerably chilled
when they reached shore. Bathing
is popular and hundreds of young
people and children may be seen
sporting in the water in front of the
Grand View hotel at almost any hour
of the day.

SEEMING FISH
POACHERS ARRESTED AT LAKE
MADISON AND FINED.

Mike Peterson, Ernest Steele and
ole Roseheim, all of Flandreau, were
arrested by Deputy Game Warden
Hawley for SEEMING fish at Lake Mad
ison and in Judge Sponholz's court in
this city each We're fined $25 which
they paid. Later another party made
up of Jake Voight, Geo. Bruins,
Adolph Meyer and VIM. Pohl, resid-
ing near Wentworth, were arrested
for SEEMING. Their story to the court
was that they were fishing with hook
and line when they were approached
by a Sioux Falls party of fishermen
who told them that it was not unlaw-
full to seine bullheads, which they
were doing, and after casting the
seine they left and soon after the
game warden arrived and arrested
the Wentworth party who had the
catch in their possession. On the
strength of this story their cases
were continued until July 81, with
the understanding that the Went
worth party would assist in Identify
ing the Sioux Falls party. But it
seems Geo. Bruins at least had got a
taste of the excitement of SEEMING and
INDUCED himself and was arrested a
second time for the offense and taken
into Judge ~Sponholz's court and fined
$50 which he paid. The continued
cases will come On for hearing We'd
nesday of this week.

The WEATHER
CLOUDY, RAINY AND COID-VER-
MILLION VALLEY FLOODED.

The extraordinary weather condi-
tons continue in this section. Sat
urday forenoon a heavy rain of three
hours duration prevailed in this vi
cinity, and with the numerous pre-
vious rains the streets of Madison are
a sea of mud, putting automobile
travel out of commission. Saturday
evening there was a quiet shower in
the city, but in the southwest por-
ton of the county there was a down
pour akin to a cloudburst and the
Vermillion river valley is flooded, the
river being three quarters of a mile
wide in the vicinity of the Clarno
store. The same story Of heavy rains
comes from all directions. Passen-
gers arriving this morning report a
heavy downpour Saturday night all
along the II. & d. line from Mime
apolis to Bristol. O. o. Murray, ar
irving yesterday from Chicago, re-
ports heavy rains west from Mankato,
Mimi. DR.. Clough, who returned
Saturday evening from southern Tex
as, states that Kansas and Oklahoma
are practically drowned out, and
heavy rains are frequent all along
the southern line.
Heavy clouds hung over this vi
cinity all day yesterday with falling
temperature during the night, tenn
perature marking Sc at Z o'clock this
morning. There has been little
change in conditions today, except
rising temperature, heavy clouds and
unsettled weather conditions prevail
ing. There have been no reports of
crop damage, except lodging of the
heavy growth of small grain in some
fields, the presence of rust not being
observed so far. Farmers are begin
ming to despair of a corn crop, how
ever, on account of the lateness of
the season generally, the heavy rains
and inability to give the cornfields
proper cultivation.

pet BULL ATTACKS
HIS KEEPER AND TWO MEN IN
JUKED-GERL TO THE
RESCUE.

Spearfish, July 19.-The Christen-
son family, living near here, had an
exciting experience with an angry g.
year-old bull, and as a consequence,
two members of the family are rCcu-
perating from serious hurts and the
bull has changed owners. The bull
weighs 100 pounds, and has been a
pet on the Christensen farm since it
was a small calf, but when Ole
Christensen went into the animals
stall and placed a rope about the
bulls neck, it became angered and
attacked Christensen. Unable to get
out of the stall Christensen climbed
into the manger, being assisted in his
effort by a bunt from the bull, with
the animals whole 100 pounds be-
hind it. Alfred Christensen came to
the assistance of his father and the
bull knocked him down and was gor-
ing him when Ole Christenson's eld-
est daughter, sister to Alfred, came
to the rescue, and with a three-foot
steel pinchbar succeeded in keeping
the bull off until the men could es-
cape. Both men were severely
bruised and injured, and the young
m welded the pinchbar with
such force it was broken in two, but
she managed to escape unframed.

MITCHELL POWERLESS
CITY PERMANENTLY RESTRAIN
ED ON EVACUATION ORDER
TO DAKOTA CENTRAL.

Mitchell, July 19.-Information of
interest and Importance to all South
Dakotans was received from Mime
apolis. when the Dakota Central Tel
ephone company received word that
Judge Wilbur #, Booth of the fed
eral district court for Minnesota, had
granted a permanent injunction re-
straining the city of Mitchell from
interfering with the operations of the
Dakota Central company in this city.
The decision marks what is prob
ably the elimination of a long drawn
out fight, in which the city authori-
ties of Mitchell sought to Dust the
telephone company and prevent it
from doing business here. The com
pany %contended it, had a franchise
from the city. and was entitled to
continue in business under the fran
chise. The city disputed the com
pany's claim, but the federal court
has held that the telephone com
pany's position was correct and the
city government at Mitchell is en-
joined from further attempts TO in
terfere with the company's business
at that point.
The Dakota Central won a similar
ease at Huron, and the Northwestern
Telephone Exchange company "A
case at Vermillion, in which the same
issues were involved, and the decision
of the federal district court was sus-
tanned on appeal by the city of Yer
million.
Mitchell has voted bonds to install
a municipal telephone plant and may
proceed with this enterprise, even if
it is legally checked from ousting the
Dakota Central. The telephone trou-
BILE here arose over a new schedule
of rates, claimed by local business in
terests TO be excessive.
