what with everybody criticising them
but the would be gay little ebony girl
OF Zululand, South Africa, moves
constantly under the censoring eyes
of her whole tribe and should she
but once prove wayward she is ston-
ed from her village, caught-and then
beaten to death. The only possible
thing to envy a Zulu flapper is her
costume-a belt of beads with tas-
sells in the front.
Claf Linck, Danish newspaper
man and explorer, recently returned
from six omnths' visit in northern
Zululand, where he lived with t.le
natives, told reporter of the poor
little Zulu flapper.
The little Zulu girls must, as other
girls the world over, always look as
attractive as possible In order t.
make hit wit hthe beaux she must
keep herself as fat as possible. nc

earrings and nose rings make her.

MAY SETTLE
ANTHRACITE STRIKE
BELIEF THAT 1T WILL COME TO
AN END WITHIN A
FEW DAYS.

Washington, ID. c., Aug. 28.-
Confidence of settlement of the
anthracite coal strike within few
days was expressed by an official
spokesman at the White House today
after the return. of President
Harding from a weekend cruise on
the Potomac river with his strike cab
met The cause Of this new optimism
was the strong undeTcurrent OF op-
position in congress to the seizure OF
mines or railroads at the present
time. The impression is prevailing
that action on legislation empower
ing the executive to take over the an
thracite mines and some railroad
lines would be delayed. 1t was point
ed out that President Harding stated
last week that legislation would not
be pushed if settlement of the anthra-
cite strike was probable early this
week.

CO|V|CTS ARE

DRAMATIC SCENE As THEY EN-

CROWD SEES THEM.

Sioux Falls, Aug. 2S.-In three

north wing of the state prison known
in convict vernacular as solitary"
rested Joe Forman, Joe Tell and ].
B. King last night.
growth of beard on their faces, the
three escaped convicts were returned
aagin to the prison wall from which
they escaped week ago Thursday.
Their companion in the escape, Hen
ry Coffee, negro, is dead.
A small crowd had gathered at the
prison to witness the returnr of the
captured meen, but only newspaper
men, officials of the city and those
who had been out on the man hunt
were allowed to collect around the
penitentiary. Scores of cars drove to
the prison, but each was received by
armed guards and told to move on"
tse they would not be allowed to col
lect in that vicinity.
At 10 o'clock three cars rounded
the turn at the end of Main avenue.
"There they come" shouted the
prison guard and the small crowd
started for the prison wall gate on
the west side. The cars drove up.
Warden George T. jameson alighted
and after an inspection of those as
sembmled around the gate gave Word
to the tower man to throw the mas
sive steel gate open.
The small crowd surged in and
started for the north wing of the pen
itentiary where the SOLITARY" cells
are located. The lights were flashed
on. the car drew up to the steps ana
the prisoners were home again.
There was a breathless moment in
that small crowd as Warden jane
son called to the men in the cars to
send Joe Teel in first.
Small of stature, dressed in blue
denim suit. a weeks growth of beard
on his face, the man shuffled into
the ante room of the tier of soil
tary" cells.
Two sets of handouts were on his
wrists and a set of leg irons gave
him the shuffling gait of the old prls-
on days as he stepped into the light.
The handouts were unlocked, that
is one set was, and his leg irons taken
off. The other set of handcuffs
proved stubborn and would not yield
to the keys inserted into them. Aft
er several attempts to taken OIL a
saw was obtained and the connect-
ing links of the cuffs were cut.
Down the hall was heard the heaVs
clanking of great steel bars. Teefs
lips frightened just a little as TINS
sound floated into the room where
he was standing. He knew what i
was. but not another sign of emotion
did he show as he was led away.

FIND BIC CACHE
Of EXPLOSIVES
UNCOVER NINE STICKS OF DYNA-
MITE IN BASEMENT OF
BURNED BUILDING.

Chamberlain, Aug. 2S.-Mystery
surrounds the finding of nine sticks
of dynamite, with fuses attached, in
window opening at one of the old
foundation of the w. B. Walt & Son
store. the foundation having been
left standing when the original store
building was burned some months
ago. The dynamite was found by
workmen employed in constructing a
new building on the site.
The explosive was wrapped in a
gunny sack and placed at the bottom
of the basement window opening,
which at one time was used as a coal
hole. The sticks of dynamite were
capped and fuse attached. The fuse
had been partially burned, but evil
IDENTIFY was disconnected from the
cap, so the charge failed to explode.
A string had been tied to the fuse,
evidently for lowering the dynamite
into the opening, which was several
feet below the surface of the ground
and bricked around the outside. The
weight of the dynamite disconnected
the fuse from the cap, which evil
dently was the reason ii failed to
explode.
When and by whom the dynamite
was placed where found probably
never will be known. 1t is possible
that an effort was made to blow up
the Wait store, of that the window
served as handy place to conceal
the dynamite by persons who had de-
signs on other places, a bank per-
haps.
The nine sticks was an unusually
large charge, and experts say 1t was
sufficient blow up several buildings.
The dynamite was turned over to the
city authorities and destroyed under
their direction.

Lansing, Mich, Aug. 2S.-lnter-
ception of fervid love notes written

at the Industrial school.
A note was found lying on the

as follows:

$4,000 MEN
FORD TO CLOSE PLASTS--FUEIi
SHORTAGE CAUSES SHUT
DOWN.

Detroit, Aug. 2S.-One hundred
and five thousand employees of the
Ford Motor company throughout the
country will be without jobs after
September 16. In addition, several
hundred thousand other workers en-
ployed in industries furnishing ma
terials for the Ford plants will be af-
fected.
Henry Ford gave these figures in
announcing that his three big motor
plants, located in Detroit suburbs,
and his assembling plants through
out the country would be closed on
that date because of coal shortage.
How long the machinery in the
Ford factories is to be stilled will de-
pend entirely upon the coal supply Of
the future, the Detroit manufacturer
said. The statement issued by Mr..
Ford, announcing the proposed shut
down was the story of his losing fight
during the last few months to in
sure a fuel supply to keep his work
ers at their machines.
Mr. Ford declared he "had not the
remotest idea" when the plants could
be reopened. 1t was announced that
the normal daily consumption of the
Ford industries was $500 tons and
although declining to state the
amount on hand at this time, Off
cials said it would impossible to do
more than keep the furnaces and
ovens warm
A comparatively small number of
the employees of the Ford plants will
be retained in service during the
shutdown, it was announced. Crews
sufficient to keep the furnaces warm
will be held, however.

At a meeting in the farm bureau
office here Saturday night, the ques-
ton of cooperative buying of feed
ers direct from the range will be dis
cussed.
There has been considerable in
quiry in the county regarding feeder
lambs and cattle, Mr.. Davis states.
Many farmers are planning on feed

Advise Farmers to
PlOw Up Hog Lot

Washington, d. c., Aug. 2S.-
Hog raisers may accomplish two de-
sirable results by plowing up the
barn lots Ia least once year, says
the United States department Of ag-
riculture. In the first place, hogs
need good succulent pasture as much
of the time as is possible, and in the
second place they need protection
against internal parasites such as
roundworms, the eggs of which re-
main in the soil.
Turning over the soil in the lots
helps to get rid of the pests and the
crop of forage makes it profitable
operation. In addition to providing
cheap protein feed, pasture crops ait
