RANT TO GIVE VOCATIONAL
TRAINING TO BOYS

Sioux Falls, Sept. 13.-Through
plans perfected at Pierre this week
in a conference between state Off
cials and various boards, the South
Dakota State college at Brookings
will be enabled to accommodate
some 200 ex-service men under the
rehabilitation act, in vocational
training courses this fall. The fin

member of the latter organization
and has just returned.
Invitations were extended to all
three candidates for governor to be

plan independent of any politics.
AT the conclusion of the confer
ence AN emergency warrant for $685.

drawn and the Red Cross promised
$4,000 additional. This will be suf-

JOHN D|CRE BOUND
OVER TO COURT
CHARGED WITH COMPLETELY IN
THE MURDER OF MARTIN
MATHESON

Sioux Falls, Sept. 13.-John Di-
gre has been held for trial in the
circuit court on charge Of murder
for alleged completely in the poison
peaches case. This was the result
of his preliminary hearing, which
extended over the greater part of
two days, during which many wit
nesses were examined. He was held
without bail.
Among the witnesses was Mrs.
Gertrude Digre, aunt Of Mrs. Anna
Matheson, confessed poisoner of her
husband, Mrs Martin Matheson, who
is the mother of John and Carl Di-
gre.
When she testified from her bed
in the county jail against John Di-
gre, Mrs. Matheson denied testimony
of Carl Digre that he had purchased
her ring. Mrs. Matheson reiter-
ated her recent written confession
in which she charged that John Di-
gre had suggested the murder plan.
She told of his attentions to her;
his attempts at improper conduct; OF
clothes he bought her and of their
plan to make Martin mad at me by
John telling him things about me- >
She denied that she had any feeling
for John Digre except as a cousin
She admitted that she had kissed
Carl Digre once or twice and ex-
planned incidents that tended to
make her relations with Carl seem
wrong.
1t was largely on the testimony oI
Mrs. Matheson that John Digre has
been held for trial as an accomplic.
in the poisoning of Martin Mathe-
son.

PERSHNC' MAP
IS ON EXHIBIT
"ORDER OF BATTLE" MAP USED
BY PEkSHNG ON EXHIBIT
AT MUSEUM

Washington, Sept. 13-One of the
most interesting exhibits of the
thousands in the world war collec-
ton now being gathered at the ma
tional museum is the "Order of
Battle" may used by General Perish
ing in directing the movement of the
American forces in France. The
wall mapt by 10 feet in size, to-
gether with the walls, floor and fur
niture of the room in which it hung
at American headquarters at Chau-
mont, was transferred to the muse
um by the war department at the re-
quest of the general
The map was brought to Wash
ington and installed in the museum
by the sergeant and three enlisted
men of the headquarters staff who
kept it corrected and guarded ii
throughout the war. AT Chaumont
the map, when not in use, was con-
cealed by sliding section of wall
which is installed in the same man
ner in the museum.
The map shows in a vivid fashion
the exact situation of the hour the
armistice was signed with reference
to the strength and location of all
divisions, both enemy and allied, on
the western front, the correct bat
tie line, the names and location of
commanding officers and locations
of headquarters and army boundar-
les. There also is a considerable
amount of detailed information re
garding the American divisions, as
for instance the percentage of fresh
and tired troops and the length of
time the various units had been in
the line or in reserve.
The war collection has already : s.
sumed such proportions as to make
necessary some new arrangement for
housing it. Many of the exhibits are
now crowded into. the ground floor
of the new national museum bull l.
ing while others are in the old
building and few of the artillery
pieces are in the open air awaiting
the construction of suitable shelter.
William De Ravenel, the director OF
the museum, says congress probab-
ly will be asked at the next session
to provide building for the collec-
ton which is of great historical
value.

Wonded Boy
Crawls Half Mile

Lennon, Sept. 13.-After being
accidentally shot through the lower
part of the abdomen, John Reed,
boy who resides with his parents on
Perkins county farm, crawled
nearly half mile toward his home,
when his mother heard his cries and
went to his assistance.
She secured help from some neigh
bors and they gave the wounded boy
first aid" and wrapped him In blan-
kets in the meadow to which he had
crawled, 1t being regarded unwise
to move him at the time because of
fear OF increasing the loss of blood.
A physician was summoned by ru-
raj telephone and after his terrible
wounds were dressed he was taken
to hospital. It is believed he will
recover.
The boy was hunting and was
dragging q 12-gauge shotgun thru
q fence when 1t was discharged. The
entire charge entered the abdomen
near the right side and tore large
hole exposing the bone of his thigh
The greater part of the charge
wentsout through HIS back.

Flax Straw Found
To Be In Demand

Brookings. Sept. 13. - There
seems to be considerable demand for
flax straw this year, according to
advices received by James w. Will
son. professor of animal husbandry
at the state college. One firm writes
that the baling of straw should not
cost more than 81 and hauling ship
ping may cost Sc, leaving balance
OF Sc per ton for the farmer OF
shipper.
This firm advised that the flas
should be cut low in order to get Al
much fibre as possible. OF course
flax straw has q feeding value foI
cattle. Perhaps 1t has 4 greater va
lue this year for fibre than for feed
ing purposes.
Anyone interested In this subject
and desiring further information
should address the Union Fibre com
pany at Winona, MINI.

come so serious that it is national
and not local problem, E. A Nifi-
necker, director research and statis-
tics said in an interview tody. Re-
ports collected by the United Press
from al parts of the country today
indicated that the teacher shortage
is being relieved by increasing the
salaries. Shortage of schools and
school rooms, however, will take
years to straighten out.

NEW WORKERS HONOR POET
Cottage Where Edgar Allan Poe Lived
and Dreamed Has Been Preserved
for Posterity.

Edgar Allan Poe Is Americas best
beloved writer abroad. according TO
Vicente Blasco IbaneZ, tn" famous
Spanish novelist. The authors grear-
est afternoon in America was the one
set aside for quiet visit to the humble
and tragic home Of the author of "The
Raven" and "The Cask of AmOntilla-
do"
Poe's cottage is a quaint little one
story frame house, painted white, on
the Grand Concourse on the upper
fringe of the city. The ground around
II has been dedicated and is known as
Poe park. The building is just the
same as 1t was when Poe lived there
in company with his fantastic satans
and ethereal sweethearts.
A party of five went with Ibanez. II
was lust dark when they arrived mt the
Poe home. The air was chilly and danH,
as Poe would have said. Six or seven
candles spluttered feebly against the
walls and threw fantastic shadows into
the small bedroom where, so history
hath il. the author OF "The Raven" had
spent so many nights of anguish and
unearthly vision.
1t is strange but there are very few
New Workers who know where Poe
lived and they have never seen the park
or the little tragic cottage. The only
indication that II was the home of the
genius of the odd is the little black
raven painted in the front,
There is little porch. much like n
modern dollhouse porch. At night Poe
used TO sit out there alone with the
stars. smoking and dreaming. Then he
was in the wilderness, for New York
was many miles away. or 10 his right
was the Hudson and the Jersey coast.
Around about him were all sorts Of
night cries. He loved the mysterious
walls, the ghostly shadows that creep
about at night. Many ambitious
writer's go there at night now to drink
In the mental pictures that came to
Poe-but instead are howls of the
Bronx Riddles. the hOnk OF the auto.
the grind of car wheels and all the com
pick noises OF congested center.

Just above the wounded area in the

tops Of the small trees are shaped TO

two are then accurately fitted together
in such a manner as to bring the cam
blum of one into contact with that of
the other. Small nails may be driven
through the tops of the trees into the
trunk, to hold the parts firmly togeth-

the tops of the small trees TO the
trunk of the large one should he well

the trunk to aid in holding the tops
of the young trees in proper position
