There is every indication that
South Dakota's troops will be moved

the middle or latter part of this
week. Col. Hunter. of the central
department, Chicago, is here making
inspection as to camp conditions and
is said to have agreed with Capt. G.
owen, United States camp surgeon.
and other officers of the medical
corps that the present camp is un-
sanitary because of its location
among trees. 1t is not known as yet
whether the troops viii be ordered
into brigade camp at Fort Smelling
Fort Riley or Fort Leavenworth, or
TO the border, but the officers of the
regiment anticipate a move TO one or
another of these points very soon.
1t is also understood that the federal
post quartermaster is being pushed

ELEVATOR BURNS
No MEANS or COMBATING
BLAZE At SARANAC-tsRAI
ALSO DESTROY

Fire of unknown origin last even
ing destroyed the only grain elevator
at Saranac, eleven miles southeast Of
Madison. and the contents of the
building, including, it is believed,
several thousands of bushels of
grain 1t is roughly estimated that
the loss is in the neighborhood of
$4,000.
No one was in or in close proX-
unity TO the elevator when it caught
on fire. shortly before O'Clock. so
far as is known Flames were seen
TO burst from the structure by the
Milwaukee station agent at Saranac
and by members Of a railroad section
crew. by the time the fire had got
ten we'll under way. W o. Gienapp.
who lives about a mile from Saranac,
arrived in an automobile. There
was no provision for fire fighting in
the little village, whose inhabitants
are made up of the station agents
and section boss families and three
or four section hands.
1t is said that ii is possible that
the blaze was caused by a spark from
a passing locomotive. There was a
slight wind blowing from the north
east The elevator was on the west
side of the track BY men who Ie-
Gently visited the elevator it is said
that there was perhaps about 5000
bushels of barley and 200 bushels
of oats in the building. 1t is thought
that the grain not burned will be
more less damaged by smoke.
The elevator was owned by j A.
Carpenter. of Canton. and it had been
managed by u. Steele, of this city.
1t was shut down about two weeks
ago to await the arrival of engine
parts to replace broken ones. Mr..
Steele left yesterday with party of
landseekers, for North Dakota, and
he expected TO be away ten days or
two weeks. ii is said.
Another elevator at Saranac burn
ed a year ago last December.

new STORM SEWER
PROTECTION TO BE AFFORDED
NORMAL TRAINING SCHOOL
AND NEW CREEK BRIDGE.

To protect the new model training
school from the possibility of damage
through being flooded by storm wa
ter, the city commissioners will prob
ably construct a storm sewer from
Egan avenue, in front of the Normal
school, west to the creek, a distance
of 200 feet or so. At a regular
weekly meeting of the commission,
held last night, il was decided to con-
struct the sewer this summer, if pos
sible. The sewer would lend protec-
tion TO the proposed new bridge
across the creek.
Joe Henkin petitioned the commits
sion to extend the city water service
west on Sixth street, TO serve prop
erty near the western limits of the
city. The commissioners said that
the city could not make the extension
at this time, owing to lack of funds.
1t is probable that Mr. Henkin will
extend the water service, with the
understanding that the city take over
the main at time when there are
funds on hand for that purpose. II
is not thought that the water main
on Sixth street will be heightened
until next year.

THE EUROPEAN WAR
Germany's Submarine Activity
Increased. Allies Mount Mer-
chantmen. Situation Acute

1t has developed that Ger
many intends to destroy all ships
carrying contraband of war,
whether such ships are hostile
or neutral. The Allies have lost
a number of merchant ships dur
ing the past week and it is learn
ed that Germany has a great
number of new submarines which
she will send out against all
ships carrying supplies to either
of the Allies.
Great Britain expects to mount
a gun fore and aft on her
merchant ships to protect them
against submarines and this
means. that submarines will act
without warning such ships if
it is thot necessary. The sit
uation is critical for President
Wilson sees that the armed ship
will! be forced on the United
States by the Allies if the ad-
ministration will permit of such
violation of regulations pertain
ing, the attitude Of the admin
istration at this time being pos
lively against such attempt by
England.
The situation in this regard,
complicated with the trade OPEN
ed up with this country by Ger
many thru the under sea freight
er method to which England so
vehemently objects, renders the
position of this country trying
one and President Wilson is
keeping thoroughly informed.
Allies captured some towns and
prisoners in the east and made
advances in the west during the
week, but the Teutons have de-
fcidedly the advantage @ia-sthe-
Balkan country and are pushing
it. The proposal of the Germans
to take nearly all the able bodied
Belgian men and put them to
work has met with strong dis
approval by England.

Mexico

The Administration has de-
livered an ultimatum to Mexico
to the effect that this country
will persue any and all who cross
the border into this country and
commit any sort of outrage, no
matter how far into Mexico such
culprits have to be followed.
Carranza appears to be unable
to handle the situation and that
he will be ousted soon, there is
little doubt. New revolutions
have broken out, rapine and dis
regard for the rights and i'm
munities of foreigners running
rampant again and the action of
the members of the Mexican
committee selected to cooperate
with a committee from this coun-
try has been such as to indicate
indifference to peace. Under the
existing circumstances, Presi.
dent Wilson has decided to take
immediate and drastic measures
if conditions are not speedily
changed.

Austria,s Emperor Dead

Emperor Franz Joseph died
Wednesday night, aged 86 and
with a record for the longest
reign of any Monarch. For 68
years he has been the ruler of
Austria.
Since the assassination of his
heir to the throne by Serbians
which was the act which precip-
itated the war, Emperor Franz
Joseph has lost vigor and several
times his death was expected.
Archduke Charles Francis was
slated for the throne and to as
sumo the position Dec. 2.

Last week as G. F. Lamkin
was returning from Triplett in a
two horse livery rig owned by
Adams & Garnett he drove
against a pole of the Bell Tele.
phone Co. on the west side Of
the dump running north along
the Friesz land west Of town.
MIR. Lamkin investigated in
the mi-darkness and saw more
poles leaning over the road
ahead. He undertook to lead
the team to the top of the dump
which was very steep and high.
When on the side Of the dump,
the wire between the leaning
poles which had caught on the
buggy top, pulled the top off the
buggy. This frightened the
team and the horses lunged for
ward. Mr.. Lamkin to avoid be-
ling tramped to death or suffer-
ling great bodily injury, jumped
aside and let the team take its
course.
The horses tore the buggy to
pieces and ran to town, circled
about and alarmed pedestrians,
then went to their barn while
Mr.. Lamkin was plodding his
way home. Had he remained in
the buggy and been there when
the top was jerked off he would
have had some skidding.

While going thru the country
last week we saw a cat on a
garden fence and a salmon can
over its head. Such antics as
the cat cut trying to see out of
the can and stick to the top of
the fence at the same time were
deeply amusing to another cat
on the ground as well as to other
bystanders. The owner of the
feline undertook to pull the can
off and was rewarded by being
scratched. We lent a hand and
while one got hold Of the cats
tail on one side of the fence the
other grabbed the can on the
other and a vigorous pull in op-
posite directions released the cat
from the can or the can from
the cat and the cat lost no time
in getting off the fence.
