Fire Destroys
Farm Dwelling

Beresford, May 16.-The fine
farm home of Mrs. Axel Odeen, re-
siding seven miles southwest OF
Beresford, was destroyed by fire.
The loss is estimated at $1,000, with
insurance of only $4,000. The or
igin of the fire is mystery. 3
The members of the family were
eating their breakfast when it was
discovered that smoke was pouring
from the roof of the house.
The flames spread so rapidly that
little could be saved II was only
two years ago that Mrs. Odeen lost
her husband by death, and a few
months ago one of her daughters
died.
Since the death of her husband
she, with the aid of her sons. has
been carrying on the work of the
farm.

After Months

Brookings, May 16.-The mystery
of the disappearance last fall of an
automobile belonging to l.. N. Sin
jem. Brookings county farmer. was
solved when the stolen car was found
in garage at Flandreau. where it
had been left by the thief.
The car was stolen by hired man
in the employ of Sinjem. He drove
the Sinjem children to school one
morning last fall and then drove off
with his employers ear, leaving no
trace.
1t chanced, however, that when he
reached Flandreau the car needed
repairs and he took 1t to Flandreau
garage. The thief apparently lost
his nerve and left town without call
ing for the car.
Recently tho owner of the garage
communicated with the secretary Of
state at Pierre and through that Of
ficer traced the ownership Of the
abandoned car to Sinjem, who now
has recovered his property.

sioners. A hearing on building ma
terial rates will be held in Washing
ton on June IA, and the other on
brick and clay products at Washing
ton on June 80.
In the building material rate case
the railroads are attempting to Sc
cure increases on building materials
from points in Illinois, Missouri,
Wisconsin and Minnesota to South
Dakota points while the state board
is attempting to secure reductions.
In the brick and clay products
case the South Dakota board is at
tempting to secure reduced rates
from Iowa points, including Sioux
City and Sergeant Bluffs to all sta
tions in this state. Brick and tile
are the principal commodities in the
clay products involved as far as this
state is concerned. The board will
also present arguments in this case,
A portion of the general grain
rate case is to be brought up again
according to adviees received by the
South Dakota commission from the
interstate commerce commission
This portion relates to the rate on
coarse grains in which the carriers
are asking that the rate on coarse
grains be made the same as or

IN FACE OF GREATEST
STOCK Or GASOLINE
ON RECORD.

Washington, ID. c., May 16--
While the oil companies have been
boosting the price of gasoline to an

l, supply 20 per cent greater thar
for April 1. 1924. and SO per CEN

for the first quarter of 1922 shows
an increase of Z per cent over the
first quarter of 1921 and Is per cent
over the corresponding period OF
1920.
A rush by big oil companies to
obtain leases in the Philippines is In
progress as result of recent legis-
lation which was enacted upon the
earnest recommendation of the Am

to advices reaching here today from
Manila. Included in the companies
which are reported to rave secured

Oil Company of California and the
"Benedum" or Independent group
A number of wells have already been

Secrecy is being maintained by
company officials as to the complete
results of their explorations, but il
is known that oil has been struck in
several wells on the Bondoc penin
sula and rich showings are reported
from other districts. A majority o.
the leases thus far secured are IL

Wolf Hunter Has
Had Good Season

Pierre, May 16-With the best
season for the wolf hunter just
about due, when the slaughter is
greatest. there have, since the last
legislature met in January 1921,
been almost $500 coyotes killed in
the state. not counting the few gray
wolves that have met their deaths
at the hands Of the scalp" hunter.
This is shown by the fact that the
$4,000 provided by the last session
for the two years is within $1,000 OF
being all gone, which means that
when 1t is gone 500 more coyotes
will have met their ultimate fate,
making the full 5000. From now
