PRO.GERMAN MEN
KIMBALL MEN FACE SERIOUS
CHARGES-UNDER BONDS.

Kimball, Dec. 10. H.. Wolf and
William LaFranz, both of this city,
were arrested and taken before Unit
ed States Commissioner Tidrick, Of
Chamberlain, on a charge of uttering
pro-German sentiments. They were
held for hearing December 81 before
the federal grand jury and furnished
bonds of $1,000 each.
Wolf had been under surveillance
for some time and his arrest does
not cause great surprise. Two weeks
ago after refusing to stand while a
band played the Star ~Spangled Ban
ner his store was given a yellow
coating.
Wolf is well known in this part of
the state and owns two fine ranches,
one near here and n in Lyman
county. He is rated as M of Brule
county's richest men During the
war he has absolutely refused to do
nate to any of the relief campaign
funds it is said, and has complained
of the 20 cent railroad tax he has had
to pay to visit one of his ranches.
AT the time of the draft Wolf was
placed on the Brule county exemption
board, but was later removed by Gov,
Norbeck on protest from numerous
citizens.

NOT FOR The YANKEES
ANY EFFORT TO SHOW HOLIDAY
SPIRIT WILL BE GREETED
WITH FIRE.

Washington, ID. c., Dec. 10
There will be no holiday f~raternizing
between Fritz and Sammy on the
American front this Christmas. Fritz
may try 1t, but he will not get far.
This word came officially from the
war department.
When Fritz pitches his little
Christmas mementoes over the brow
OF his trench, he will be greeted with
a storm of lead and steel from the
Sammies, who are owe there to
fight. and who are now determined
to have full revenge for their COM
rades who have already been killed
or captured by the Boches.
With broad hints of peace trickling
from Amsterdam, 1t is believed the
Teutons will desire to be friendly
during the holidays, but the only
feeling the Sammies have for them is
that Of personal enmity and the only
presents he will send over the line
will be delivered by gun powder ex-
press and scattered lavishly. Sam
my's only greeting will be fight
and instead of a friendly hand the
bayonet will be presented.

DEALS FELL down
LILY GRAIN BUYER PLAYS
GRAIN MARKETS AND
LOSES 49,, 200.

Aberdeen, Dec. 19.-In a monot-
onous and precarious round of get
ting from one company to pay an
other, the financial planning of Hen
ry o. Enger, grain buyer at Lily,
came to a gap in the road to wealth.
AS a result he was overtaken and is
now charged with having obtained
$4,000 under false pretenses from
the Van Dusen Harrington company,
of Minneapolis.
The grain commission house
charges him with having obtained
the money and then having mort
gagged or contracted to sell all his
property to avoid paying.
Enger was arrested at Lily as he
was about to take a train for the
east. He was taken to Bristol for
preliminary hearing and this was
continued for a week to December
%. In the meantime he is held un-
not furnish and he is in the county
Jail at Webster.
Operations on the board of trade
in his w behalf seem to have been
the thing that ate up the piled up
thousands of dollars. Enger would
use funds he had for buying grain in
his own enterprises. When he was
pressed for settlement he would exc
cute a statement that gained loans
from another grain company. With
the proceeds he would pay up the
concern he owed and go ahead
upon a second lap of the race against
detection.
This was repeated over and over
again during the last couple of years
until at last he failed to quite bridge
the gap in the ring around a rosy he
had been playing and his downfall
came. He was arrested by the sher-
iff of Day county. Enger Is a married
man and has been in Lily for the last
two or three years.

Soldiers LETTERS
HOW THEY SHALL BE ADDRESS
ED-CENSORSHIP RULES.

The Daily Leader is in receipt of
the following which will be of gen.
eral interest to the public and of
especial interest to relatives and
friends of soldiers in the service:
Headquarters, 116th Supply Train,
41st Division, Camp Mills, Long ISL
and, N. Y, Dec. 3, 1917.-The rules
governing censorship and proper ad-
dress have been published to the
army and you are requested to pub
lish the following extract therefrom:
Par. 3. (a) Only the name, rank,
company and regiment of a person in
the military service will be written
on an envelope. for example, as fol-
lows:
Corporal John Smith.
Company A, LIST Infantry,
A. +. +.
Letters from the United States for
officers and men of the American ex-
peditionary forces should also bear
the words: Via New York, which
will be sufficient indication for the
postal authorities for the proper dis
patch of mail to these forces.
The proper manner in which to adj
dress officers and men not serving
with regiments will be announced
from time to time in postal regula-
lions, but in general the following
items are forbidden:
l.. The mention of a place in con-
nection with a military unit.
2. The use of a civil address.
3. The mention of brigades, di-
visions, corps, armies, ETC., in con-
nection with that of any other mill
tary unit.
This does not forbid the address
ing of an officer, as for example:
Colonel John Brown,
Headquarters, 9Th Division.
Thus it will be seen that the proper
address Of the members of this com
mand is:
Private John Smith,
Motor Truck Co. No. -.
116th Supply Train,
Via New York A. K. +
Par. A. (c) All communications
to the press on subjects connected
with military matters are prohibited
The writer of the letter is responsible
for its publication even if 1t has beer
censored. No officer, soldier, or civ
ilian ON duty or connected with thu
American expeditionary forces in an,
official capacity will act as a CORE
spondent for any newspaper Or pc
riodical.
Since all censorship is for the pur
pose of limiting information to thu
enemy, and the regulations are prom
ulgated for the purpose of protecting
the lives of those men in the service
the public is urged to cooperate will
the military in enforcing the regula
lions. The press is requested to he'll
keep the boys out of trouble by re
fusing to publish letters that hav'
been written to relatives and friends
Every Ia in this organization ha
received from the Red Cross: On
sweater, one muffler, one pair wrist
lets, one pair socks.

convicted three years ago of a statu-
tory crime, is seeking pardon, having
received a letter from another tramp

convinced Hubbard Is innocent,

oner at the state penitentiary and
there is little doubt he will soon be
liberated.
