WILL Dig Ditch
COMMISSIONERS BOARDS OF
THREE COUNTIES APPROVE
OF PETITION TO DRAIN
FARM LAND.

Commissioners of Lake, Mime.
haha and McCook counties yesterday
approved of the petition for a joint
drainage ditch, which will start in
the northeast corner of McCook
county, run through a small part of
the northwest corner of Minnehaha
county and up into the south central
part of Lake county, emptying into
Buffalo creek.
The commissioners of the three
counties and County Engineer c. A.
Trimmer yesterday Went over the
site of the proposed ditch, and order
ed a survey made. The ditch will
be about four miles long. and some
three and a half miles of its length
will be within Lake county. In the
neighborhood of $50 acres of farm
land will be drained. All but about
fifty acres of the land affected is i'm
Lake county.
While the survey will be made at
once, it is probable that the ditch
cannot be dug until next spring. Be
fore the work anNbe done ii will be
necessary to have the plans approved
by the state engineer and to adver-
tise for a hearing. The cost of the
work will be assessed against prop
erty benefited.

MAY GET TABERNACLE
QUESTION OF BUILDING EDIFICE
DISCUSSED AT LAST NIGHTS
UNION MEETING.

Last nights union prayer meeting
in the Methodist Episcopal church
gave birth to a movement TO build,
in the city, a tabernacle, in which to
hold evangelistic meetings.
Pastors and members of the con-
gregations of the Baptist, Presbyte-
rian and Methodist churches were in
attendance at last nights meeting.
The prime object of calling the
church people together was to ar
range for a campaign for more
church members. 1t was suggested
that some well known revivalist be
engaged to hold a series of meetings
here in the near future.
Some of those present expressed
the opinion that good work could be
done by the local clergy and congre-
cations without assistance from out
side the city. 1t was the opinion of
others that a due measure of success
would reward the meetings only ii
held in a union tabernacle.
To further discuss the matter, an
other meeting will be held in the
Methodist church next Thursday
evening. There was a large attend
ance at last nights meeting.

the faith of her fathers, and becomes
a dancing girl and the ~favorite OF a

theirs curse awakens the sleeping
soul, and relentlessly points out TO
her the fearful evil she has done TO
her life. Fleeing to the little island
upon which she vas born, Drusiila
seeks to end the life she began there,
but instead she finds lcve and a
chance to rebuild all that she had so
nearly destroyed. So at the eleventh
hour, the dancing girl finds peace
and forgiveness, is able TO saw an
other ruined life than her own, and
shake off the threatening shadow of
her parents curse.
The production is adequately
mounted, and presented by a judi
cously chosen cast, including NAL

THREE ARE HURT
AUTOMOBILES COLLIDE AT 4
CROSSING SOUTHEAST OF
CITY-ONE CAR Is
WRECKED.

One man and two young women
were seriously injured, several per-
sons were more or less bruised and
shaken up and an automobile was
practically demolished late yesterday
afternoon at a crossroads, about thir-
teen miles southeast Of this city and
three miles east of the village of
Chester, when cars owned and driven
by Henry Corbin, of Chester, and Al
bert Boon, of Sioux Falls, collided.
1t was only through good fortune
that the occupants of the Corbin au-
tomobile, which was badly broken
and turned upside down, escaped
fatal injuries or death.
In the Corbin machine, beside Nh.
Corbin, were Miss Maude Corbin, her
two young sisters, a small brother
and Henry Killion, of Chester, while
riding with Mr.. Boon were Ed Hines,
of Sioux Falls, and formerly a Lake
county farmer, the Misses Alice, En-
ma and Marenia Hines and Christ
Anderson.
Mr.. Killion sustained a broken hip,
a badly bruised chest and side and
internal injuries; one of Miss Ma
renia Hines arms was broken, and
Miss Maude Hines was knocked UNI
conscious. A doctor who was called
from Chester to the scene said yes
terday that he could not tell the eX-
tent of Mr.. Killion's injuries.
The Corbin party were returning
from Lake Madison and were driving
ga.r4h xuhfIn Nv Doom o,r ~ acRa
ing toward Madison from the east.
The corner at which the accident oc-
Cured is a treacherOus one, a
group of trees on the northeast cor
ner of the highway making it impos-
sible to see vehicles approaching
from the east.
1t is said that the two machines
were only a few yards apart when
the drivers first saw each other. 1t
was impossible to stop either car.
The Boon car crashed into about
the middle of Mr.. Corbin's automo-
bile. The latter car was overturned,
the rear wheels knocked off and the
frame badly twisted. The windshield
and top were torn from the Boon car
and one of the front wheels thrown
out of alignment.
Miss Maude Corbin was pinned IN
der her fathers car. Mr.. Killion.
unable to help himself. was laid be-
side the road until a doctor could
be summoned from Chester. The less
seriously injured were taken to the
Staley farm house, nea where the
accident occurred. Those who had
been riding in the Corbin machine
were later taken to Mr.. Corbin's
home, while Mr.. Boon and his party
were brought to Madison in the
Boon car.

Supply company, who arrived i'm his
