WOMAN DRAWS GUN
OFFICER WHO TORE DOWN
FENCE TO SERVE PAPERS
GETS NO SYMPATHY
IN COURT.

Chamberlain, Jan. 23.-That Mrs.
Bertha Weinker runs a farm was the
cause of her being hailed into court on
a charge Of having been cruel to a
deputy sheriff and his chauffeur.
The trouble grew out of an at
tempted collection of a disputed
tkresher's lien. The deputy drove
across the woman's potato patch and
tore down a fence getting to her
house to collect the bill. He failed
to collect. Mrs. Weinker ordered
the officer off the ranch, but he drew
a gun, which, according to witnesses,
failed to have the desired effect.
A 1~0-year-old son of Mrs. Weinker
disappeared during the argument.
He returned and nestled near his
mothers skirts. Suddenly a large
b~usinesslike revolver was thrust un-
der the deputy's nose and he was told
again to get off the ranch, this time

One MANS TRIALS
HIS WIFE OBJECTS TO CHILDREN
ATTENDING SCHOOL.

Pierre, Jan. 23.-William Heb, a
German from the east end of the
county, was brought in a few days
ago on a charge of not sending his
children to school. His reasons were
varied, the principal one being that If
he did send the children to school he
would have trouble with his wife, and
IL he didn't he would have trouble
with the authorities. and he was in a
quandry as to which end of the trou-
BILE to face. He declared his wife's OBJ
jections were based on the fact that
they lived so far from a school that
it was impractical for the children to
come home each night, and while the
township agreed to supply them
places for the school week, ear the
school building, the mother refused
to allow the children to be gone fol-
the whole week. A plan of relief is
under consideration to fit the case
and allow the head of the household
to get rid of one end of his trouble

LEASE OUT WOMAN c0NvIcTS
Action OF County Commissioners In
Alabama May Bring LeoIsIa-
tive Action.

Mobile, Ala.-At the next session Of
the state legislature a measure will
probably be introduced looking to pro-
hibiting counties from leasing woman
convicts. A sensation was recently ere
ated when the Escambia county com.
m%issioners leased negro woman prison.
ers to a contractor for is cents a day,
for a term Of two years. For years
male prisoners have been leased to
mine operators and other employers of
labor, but this was the first instance
where women had been leased. Until
the war made a strong demand for
labor there was no market for the ne
gro woman prisoners. But In certain
lines Of work 1t has been found they
have a small earning capacity and
other counties will probably follow the
lead of Escambia.

STATE fire MARSHAL
RESPONSIBLE FOR MANY Ell
EVATOR BURNINGS IN
SOUTH DAKOTA.

Sioux Falls, Jan. 23.-Nearly half
a million dollars worth more proper.
ty was destroyed by fire in South Da-
kota during 1917 than in 1915, ac-
cording to State Fire Marshal S. L.
Grams, of Lead, who came here to be
present at the state council of de-
Tense meeting.
Mr.. Grams, who is known to every
n in the Black Hills as Dad" also
declared that in his opinion, there
was a good deal of guess work in
charging the destruction of grain ell
evators TO the pro-Germans and I. w.
w. as in only two cases had 1t been
proved that the fires thought to be
incendiary were due to them.
Mr.. Grams has been compiling fig
ures for the meeting. He finds that
the property loss in just the cities
and towns of the state as the rural
communities have not yet reported,
from January l., 1916 to 1917. were
$776,763.O5, and for the year follow
ing, or last year, they were $1,672,-
009.02. exclusive Of the report for
December from Sioux Falls. which
was not in.
Also in 1916 there were eight ele-
vators destroyed with a loss of $63,.
315, and in 1917 there were Is with
a loss of $202,173.39.
Since the declaration Of war by
America April 6, last, there were six
elevators destroyed with a loss oil
s114,503.39.
I'm but two instances" said Mar
shall Grams, where confessions were
obtained, were the I. w. w. directly
connected and from my investigation
1t seems much more likely that many
grain elevators were destroyed
through carelessness rather than de-
liberate incendiarism. We are in
specting all elevators and making
recommendations which are usually
complied with, but in some instances,
they do not eem to care"
