Rapid City, May 22.-John O'Neill
of Memo, came to Rapid City and
filed on a piece OF land on which he
had been living for the last twenty
years. At the same time he filed on
the land he made application for his
final proof. This, however, cannot
be given to him until he had made a
survey OF the land. That Is the only
thing that is holding up his final
proof as he has cultivated twenty
acres of the land for the past ten
years. and during the time he has
lived on the place has always had
three acres under cultivation.
This is the only ease on record
where land was filed on and final
proof asked for on the same land on
the same day. People living in the
vicinity had taken it for granted that
the land had been filed on and prov
en- up by Mr.. O'Neill, and so had
never tried to file on 1t.

War SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, May Especial: In
fantry attack by the Germans in the
Verdun region, a French gain in the
Champagne, a British success on the
Vimy ridge and further successful
onslaughts by the Austrians along
the southern Tyrol are ehronicled in
the latest official communications.
After a period of inactivity by the
infantry around Verdun the German
foot soldiers have been hurled
against the entire French line in the
lie Morte Homme region, but were
driven out with serious losses. To
the west and on the northern slopes
of lie Morte Homme the Germans oc-
cupied a portion of a French adyanc-
ed trench. Under a violent fire by
French guns, the Germans are re-
ported to have retreated from the
positions in disorder. Artillery con-
tinues active in the other sectors
about Verdun.
The French have cleared a German
trench in Champagne, by surprise at
tacks. All the occupants of the
trench are reported either to have
been killed or captured.
Further north the British have
withstood two German thrusts in the
region of Loos and Wieltje and the
loyal North Lancashires have recap
tured a crater on the Vimy ridge,
the scene of much hard fighting in
the last few days. The crater was
captured by the Germans on May Is.
In Tyrol the Austrians have followed
up their successes by compelling
Italian forces to evacuate the Col
Santo, southeast of Rovereto, and
west of Monte Maggie. the extremity
OF the previous advance.
According to the Austrian official
statement, Italian prisoners sc far
captured total more than 1900 of.

 The money was contributed d from funds remaining in the hands of tie local relief com mittee, which was raised for the benefit of flood sufferers here following the oveflow of last August.
 When the call for aid came. MT. ketchem was quick to re- spond. His experience as chair man of the local relief commit tee following the August flood in this section, taught him that the money promptly given re lieves the most distress, so he quickly sent a check for $200.

ROOSEVELT'S NAME IS
 CHEERED 8 MINUTES
All Records For Demonstration
 Broken When Teddy's Name
 Is Mentioned in Convention

Chicago, June 7.-The Pro- gressive national convention opened in the Auditorium to- day with record breaking demonstration for Col. Roose- welt.
 For one hour and thirty-three minutes the delegates and spectators roared, shouted, cheered and applauded. They sang the Progressive battle hymns, paraded the aisles and over the stage and howled down all attempts to check them. The demonstration ex- Iceeded the previous record for such affairs of one hour and |29 minutes, established in the Coliseum here four years ago, when the Roosevelt supporters sought his nomination over President Taft and exceeded by eight minutesthe celebrated demonstration for Bryan at Denver in 1908.
 Raymond Robins, temporary chairman of the convention, had spoken just three senten- ces of his keynote speech when he mentioned Col. Roosevelt's name. A wave of enthusiasm that amounted to nothing less than paroXysm resulted.
 ''The foremost citizen of the world, was the characterize tion Robins used in connection with his mention of the colo nefs name. The response was instantaneous. "We want Ted dy,' roared the delegates, and the demonstration lasted for lone hour and 33 minutes.

G. 0.P. WILL LIKELY
 NOMINATE HUGHES
Hope of Harmony Lessens and Progressives Will Nominate Teddy on First Ballot.

Chicago June 7.-More poli- tical leaders are predicting the nomination of Justice Charles E. Hughes tonight than at any time since the Republican na- tional convention assembled. They declare that unless all signs fail, his nomination will come even sooner than has been predicted. The men who take this view are practical polltl- clans, who do not make estima- tes unless they are based on a careful canvass of the dele gates.
 The situation is illustrated by the fact that conferences between leaders to discuss the availability of different candi- dates practically have ceased, indicating thier belief that a majority of the delegates al ready have reached a decision to name Hughes.
 These leaders say that the Hughes boom now has grown to such formidable proportions that Colonel Roosevelt no long CT holds the veto power which had been conceded to him as part of the program to bring the Republican and Progress siVe parties together.
 The Hughes managers claim that he will have 300 votes on first ballot.
 It seems practically certain that the Progressive national convention will again nominate Roosevelt and Johnson.
 Many of the Progressive leaders argue that they have mo other course, because efforts to reach an agreement with the Republicans have failed. The more conservative Progressives hope to forestall action in their convention until Friday.
 Neither the Republican nor the Progressive convention ap- pointed committees today to confer respecting peace plans. There is opposition in both conventions to such course.
 Before the demonstration for Colonel Roosevelt in the Pro- gressive convention today it was suggested the party might name candidate other than Roosevelt, and that later, if the Republicans named Hughes and his speech of acceptance proved satisfactory, the Prog ressive candidate could with draw in the interest of harmony and a united front to the Dem ocratic party at the polls would be presented. This plan, how ever, has been abandoned.
