Adolph Kehr appeared before
Judge Fleeger in the circuit court
chambers at Sioux Falls yesterday,
pleading guilty to the charge of hav-
ing liquor in his possession. The
judge deemed the act sufficiently
reprehensible for the imposition of a
fine of $3.50 plus 80 days incarcera-
ton in the county Jail.
Henry Mueller brought to The
Daily Leader office today a copy Of
the Paris, France. edition of the New
York Herald, sen by his son, Oscar,
with the A. E. F. in France. The
paper is devoted almost exclusively
to American news, and is published
simultaneously with the New York
Herald in this country.
The current issue of the Romo Ex-
haust, published by the soldier boys
at Romorantin, France, where many
Madison boys are located, contains a
cartoon of Sergt. Herman Vreyens,
"our efficient mail clerk" and other
items of interest. One item is to the
effect that "Sergt. Brorby is getting
so hard-boiled that he is afraid to
sleep with himself. They say he
Graves cinders for breakfast food"
At a sitting of the board of county
commissioners yesterday bids for
work on ditch No. 20 were opened
and considered. The Colgrove Con-
struction company was awarded a
contract for the labor, hauling and
stringing the tile along this ditch.
The National Sewer Pipe company, of
Webster City, Ia, now hold contracts
for furnishing the tile necessary for
this phase of the undertaking. The
session held over until today 60 fin
ish other county business and APP
point a coroner to succeed the pres
ent incumbent, DR.. r. S. Westaby.
The condition of Ole Thompson be-
came so serious the last two or three
days that it was thought best to re-
move him to some hospital. This
morning he was placed aboard the
south train and taken to the home of
a brother in Sioux Falls. Mr.. Thomp-
son will be given a chance to rest
there, but if he does not show i'm
provement soon the plan is to take
him to the Mayo hospital at Roches-
ter, Mimi, to see what can be done
for him. He has been a sufferer
from acute indigestion for many
months. Miss Mabel Thompson ac-
companied her father to Sioux Falls.
The little Focal ads in The Daily
Leader, such as wants, lost, found,
sales, rents, ETC., bring quick returns.
This has been especially noticeable
the past few days. A want ad, to
buy a residence, brought a half dozen
replies the day after it was publish
ed; wanted, to rem rooms, brought
an equal number of replies within the
same length of time; lost, by E. w.
Ketcham & Son, an auto chain,
brought a return of the chain within
two hours after the paper was issued
last evening; wanted, man and light
team to assist A. p. Montgomery, the
sewing machine agent, brought a
man the same evening. And so we
might enumerate indefinitely. The
little local ads in The Daily Leader
bring quick returns.
Alma Gluck, the most popular So
prano of today, will be at the coli
scum, Sioux Falls, the 10th of Feb
ruary. If a sufficient number of peo-
pie can be secured a special train will
be run down, leaving here about 5
o'clock and leave for return after the
entertainment. The round trip tick
cts will cost $2.6S. Admission tick
cts, 81, 50 and $3.50, plus 10 per
cent war tax. This is a great oppor-
tunity, perhaps of a lifetime, to hear
so great an artist and there should
be no difficulty to secure sufficient
music lovers to get the excursion
train. The quicker the required
number is secured the better seats
can be reserved. Make your mind up
quick and receive all the advantages
possible. Normal people will hand
their names to MI. Kendrick and Miss
Gimme, others leave name at Nit
terling Piano Store.
