E. B. Duell, Who Drowned Himself, Was Victim of Circumstances. Rapid City, S. June suicide of E.

B. Duell, who drowned himself in Box Elder creek, is now thought to be due to his connection with the case of John G. Smith, on trial here for incest.

June of ravages of cut worms in cornfields in this, Beadle, county were very much exaggerated while in a few limited localities the worms have done some mischief, the destruction is not as serious as reported last week. A number of farmers have replanted a portion of the cornfields, partly because of cut worms and partly because of unfavorable weather conditions. Low temperature and cold rains proved unfavorable to the germination of corn, but luring the past week the crop has made fair progress.

Wheat and oats have made splendid growth, and rye and barley are coming on rapidly some report heading on short stem, but the crops generally are in good condition and making fair headway. Rains Monday morning were very refreshing, and will materially benejflt potatoes and corn, while grass will again make rapid growth this crop promises very abundant, and with the customary crop of millet there will be ample feed for stock.

Louis valley crossing of the Illinois Central embankment, two miles south of the relay depot. While as many men, women and chidren as could stand on the embankment were heaping sand-bags between the rails to prevent the menacing waters from mounting over the top, the resistless current broke through the lower part of the wall of earth and spurred in rivulets in the faces of those carrying sandbags up the bank. Bags thrown Into the openings by of men were tossed by the waters like feathers then the workers fled from their useless task and the alarm was given by the ringing of bells and blowing of whistles In every part of the city.

Strong men carried agedwomen In their arms followed by women with babies. Barefooted children were in the procession which continued steadily the bridge. Hundreds of others sought protection In the second story of the public library building. As the water encroached about it many dashed through the shallow overflow to find a more secure refuge. In the city hall alone 501 homeless persons with such scant belongings as they had been able tc seize on short notice were soon assembled.

Provisions for time being have been supplied them and they were made as comfortable as possible. Business is totally suspended. streets are filled with the almost panic stricken Inhabitants of the Invaded districts.

Snch is the prejudice against the Jew. It exists simply because the Jewish race Is the most persistent, powerful, commercially successful race that the world has ever produced. Thousands of them have been assimilated by America and thousands more will be assimilated. "The prejudice against the negro is the instinct of self preservation. I record here the prediction that as a southern man, expect to see the day when the whole people of the south will build a statue to Abraham Lincoln In the capital of the confederacy." Mr.

Dixon then called attention to Lincoln's words: "I believe that there exists between the races, white and black, physical differences which will forever forbid their living together on a plane of social equality." "In eighty Mr. Dixon declared, "there will be 60,000,000 negroes in this country at the present rate of increase, and there are but three solutions of the problem that present themselves to to raise the negro to our level, to sink to his, or to remove him. "The negro is the menace, therefore, to one element of the Americans' his race Integrity. The menace to his other element of strength, his individuality, is socialism, which attacks firet the family, the stronghold of individuality, ahd the bulwark on which our civilization rests, and- then the Aber of the individual himrelf."

Francis wit)i the men accused of the killing of Daniel Berry and his sons, have not been molested by the parties of armed settlers.
