York , did not touch the home plate
when ho came home with the winning
run in the tenth inning yesterday ,
Manager Mack said today :
"I will not protest. The Giants
won the game and are entitled to 'the
victory. Doyle was safe at the plate
by fifteen feet and the question of
whether ho slide over the plate 01
alongside of it is a matter of minoi
importance. I never have and nevei
will bicker over decisions of umpires
The game will stand as a win foi
New York. "

fo No. 1 Worth $10,000.
The drawing for the 4,000 prize
> B' the Rosebud land lottery began at 1
o'clock this mornlii } : . The greatest In
terest of the whole ( { rawing naturally
hinged on the winner of No. 1 , valued
at $10,000.
The opening exorcises were very
simple , consisting of tlio singing of
an appropriate song , entitled , 'Must
Before the Drawing , Sweetheart , " by a
chorus of girls , an address by .ludgo
Wltten , who was In charge of the
drawing , and the drawing of lots by
two little girls to see which should
have the honor of drawing out the
first number.
The girls who drew the first 100
numbers were Virginia Foster , daugh
ter of Mr. and Mrs. Don Foster of Dal
las , and Dorothy Slaughter , daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. II. F. Slaughter of
Gregory.
The drawing will take three days ,
2,000 names bylng drawn the first day
and IS.OOO each the last two days , mak
ing a total of 8,000.
Any claims that are not filed on
after tlio S.OOO have been given an op
portunity to do so , will bo thrown
open for settlement under the squat
ters' right plan.
The second choice went to the son
of a prize winner In tlio Gregory coun
ty drawing five years ago.
Four thousand people , hushed In
breathless expectation , bad crowded
into tlio Gregory auditorium this
morning to witness the drawing.
One Little Girl Is Late.
The start was delayed about thirty
minutes on account of the tardiness
of one of the little girls selected to do
tlio drawing.
The preliminary Intention had been
to have the two little girls cast lots
for the honor of drawing the first
claim , but at the last moment , Judge
Wltteu decided to have both girls
participate in this event. At the sig
nal from the superintendent of the
opening Virginia Foster of Dallas , and
Dorothy Slaughter of Gregory , tripped
I forward to the stack of 511,000 envel
opes and made a joint selection , both
assisting in conveying the envelope
to .ludgo Wltten.
Without preliminary maneuvers or
hesitation Judge Wltten quickly open
ed the envelope and called the name
of the winner , Mary .1. Kendall , of
Rapid City , S. D. The drawing and
announcing of names proceeded speed
ily from that time.
Walter Peterson of Burke , who
drew No.1 today , filed a squatter
claim in Gregory county seven years
ago but lost it on a contest.
Dennis O'Leary Gets One.
Dennis O'Leary , correspondent of
the Associated Press , landed No. 1415
in the drawing but cannot derive any
benefit from It as be only has a
homestead right for two acres.
O'Leary was among the lucky ones in
the Gregory county drawing seven
years ago and filed on a quarter two
miles south of Dallas that contained
15S acres. This loft him a registra
tion right. In order to make use off
the number be would have to locate
a subdivision as small as his home
stead right and that cannot be done.

Taft Replies With Spirit.
Aberdeen , S. D. , Oct. 24. In !
speech before the Aberdeen Commci
cial club here last night Preslden
Taft replied with feeling to tin
charge that be bad set up the sn
preme court with the idea that 1
was to emasculate the Sherman antl
trust law and declnred anew his In
tentlon to have that law enforced t <
the letter.
The president referred to the crit
cism of the supreme court's ruling I :
the Standard Oil and tobacco trus
cases , and declared that nothing coul
be furthered from the facts than th
charges that the statute had bee
made Ineffective. The supreme com
bo said , had declared that any n
stralnt of trade or combination for tli
purpose of suppressing competitlo
and controlling prices was an inhib
tion of the law.
"I have challenged and I challeng
again , " he shouted , "any person t
cite a case that he would condemn a
a violation of the anti-trust law thti
would not bo condemned under th
decision of the supreme court. As ye
I have beaid no reply. The only ai
swer that has come hns been an li
suit to the court and an insult to im
It Is the charge that I set up the com
with the purpose and understandln
that it would emasculate the statut
Oh , gentlemen , there Is not the sllgh
est foundation for that.
Proud of That Court.
"I am proud of the men that I lm\
put on that court. I am proud t
have found men with a standing i
high as they to take to places on tlu
bench and I am willing to abide I
irIS the record that they have made an
that they will make.
"I cannot get much excited aboi
such a charge , insulting as it Is , b
cause I can't understand that tl
IS maker of It has perception enough i
understand the weight of the cban
ho Is making.
"It Indicates a view that such n
tack Is an ordinary political consider
tion and Is justified by political view
"Therefore I do not resist In tl
spirit that 1 ought to , perhaps , for 1
cannot bollovo that the country at
largo takes It seriously , considering
the men against whom It Is made.
"Hut now that wo have gotten the
law In shape for real enforcement af
ter twenty years , I henr a cry that
to enforce It will disturb business. I
don't want to disturb business any
more than any one cine. Hut the sta
tute was on the statute books when
I took the oath of office to enforce
the laws of the land , and 1 am going
to see to It , so far as I lune the power
as chief executive , that every one
who cornea within the stntute feels
Its heavy band. "
The president again expressed the
hope that business would square Itself
with the statute.
"When It docs , " he concluded , "wo
should all get together nnd do the
team work to bring about prosperity. "
Plensnnt Trip to Detroit , Mich.
M. A. I'asewalk , local distributor for
K. M. F. 110 and Flanders 20 auto
mobiles , and C. It. t'abaiilss , adver
tising manager of The News have re
turned from a trip to Detioit , where
they were the guests of the Studebaker -
baker corporation. They joined the
Studebaker special train at Omaha
last Wednesday morning , ai riving in
Detroit Thursday morning. In all
there were 1IG ! Nebraska dealers In
the party and ( he train consisted of
six Pullmans , two diners , a buffet car
and an observation ear. Walter 10.
Flanders , general manager of the
Studebaker corporation , stated that
tlio object of the trip was to show
i Just how tlio Flanders 20 and E. M. F.
! ! 0 cars are made and to convince
j their dealers that they are just as
'
'good as they aie advertised to be
j Mr. Paeewnlk said lie was a little
skeptical himself about the- ability of
any automobile concern to turn out
j 200 cars a day and make them good ,
' .but ho Is convinced now that his ears
are the best that can be made for the
money and for all practical purposes
as good as any of the higher priced
cars. He was shown how every pait
of the cars were made in the Stude
baker factories , from the pigiron to
the finished car. For 1912 be says the
factoiles are going to build 50,000 au
tomobiles and even at this rate the
Studebaker factories will not bo able
to fill all orders for for every car that
was made during the 1911 season
there was a demand for four.
The Nebiaska party , of the "Corn
Feds , " as they soon came to bo known ,
were in charge of L. A. Keller , the
Omaha branch manager. Nothing was
loft undone to make the party com
fortable and have a good time. There
was plenty to eat and drink and some-
tiling doing all the time.
Two days were spent in Detroit and
not one of the party will soon forget
that continuous round of pleasure and
i sightseeing. They saw in full blast
i operation ono of the greatest maun-
' facturlng plants in the world , a plant
which occupies about thirty-three
acres of floor space , employs an army
of over 8,000 men and has a payroll
of $525,000 a month. The visit was a
social one , so specied by Mr. Flanders
in bis Invitation , but there was not a
dealer in tlio party who did not ap-
! predate the significance of the af-
lair from a business standpoint. Mr.
Flanders , who is the most talked-of-
manufacturer in the country today ,
the giant of them all , wanted to show
his dealeis that no business , how
large can get past the stage of a man
to man transaction , lie wanted them
to get the spirit of the organization
he has built up in Detroit. He wanted
to show them his promise to build 50 ,
000 cars next year was not an idle
boast but that he had the men ami
the plant to do it.
Perfect system was manifested in
the details of the trip from the verj
start. The dealers wore assigned tc
their places In one of the Pullmans
and several representatives of the
sales department of the company join
ed the paily and helped other live
ones keep things moving , and to sec
that the dealers bad a good time.
Arriving at Detroit , the party was
net by a squadron of Flanders 2 (
uurlng cars , every man was assignee
to a car , and the party whisked to tin
? ellowcraft club where they bac
breakfast. After breakfast a tour ort
Plant 3 was made and luncheon serv

How Dr. Webster's Sister Helped.
Chicago , Oct. 21. Before a switch
hoard , pulling out one plug , putting
in another , answering our "Hollos,1
flinging back a frequent "Busy , " sit :
Fate.
She bears no resemblance to th <
beautiful , classic sisters of tlio distaf
and scissors , the three fates whom tin
ancients believed preside over hnmai
affairs. This one may chew gum. Sin
may cling to the enormous , old-fasli
loned pompadour , or the bideoii ;
'rats. " She may speak in surly fasli
ion , even through her nose. But sh
1 is destiny incarnate. She may havi
j the deciding vote in many human al
fairs. If she interferes she ma ;
change the current of human existence
once by simply switching the electrl
current in another direction.
The telephone girl may seem :
commonplace figure to the shorl
sighted , but around her fingers ma ;
bo twined the strands of our future
, Like a judge upon the bench , sh
x sits and ponders about our fate am
passes sentence. The sentence depends
ponds upon whether she decides upo
interference or non-interference.
t
In Dlxon , 111. , Miss Rilla Webste
came to the office punctually to tak
charge of the night shift in the mai
office. She hung up her hat an
jacket , flufled up her hair before th
little square mirror and smiled "Goo
night" at the girl on the day shift
She answered a call for a young ma :
k who wanted to take a girl to a moi
Ing picture show. She permitted
young wife to confide to her husban
that the baby had a tooth.
She heard a politician Invite ar
other to a meeting of a few of th
boys Just to talk things over. A
angry housewife gave the grocer
protracted piece of her mind becaus
he had forgotten her order for brow :
sugar. All of these Miss Wobste
heard , but did not consclemsly hem
t
Her fingers pulled out tlio plugs an
pushed them In ngnin. She sal
"Hello" nnd "Busy" when necessarj
and her eyes looked beyond th
switchboard. Her thoughts travelle
further. Suddenly she snt ver
straight and her cheeks went as whit
as the plastered wall of the exchang
room.
"Hello ! This Is the office of th
lt chief of police of Chicago. We'v
, got a line on your man. "
"On which man ? You don't mea
'
Doc Webster ? "
' I "Bo careful about names. Telepbon
lines leak. He's expected at the Pol ;
clinic hospital at U ( his morning , Can
vou take the no.xt train ? "
"I can gel the train , but I'll ' have
. get the pnpors first. "
" ( Jot the help of the state's nllor-
icy. He'll open shop at night for
mythlng so Important. "
"All right , chief. "
"Walt. Hello sheriff ! "
"Yes. chief. "
"Bring the papers. Wo musii't lethe
ho fellow get away. Act. quick. "
"Uoodby. "
The slim , black figure at the s\\ilch- \
: > oard swayed. I lor trembling hands
Tell ( o her hip and shook there as
leaves are tossed In it hollow by a
wind. Rllla Webster was but 10. I3v-
eryono said she "looked young for bor
igo. " Now with drawn whlto face ,
she ) looked ton years older.
"Hzz" rasped the board.
"llzay. ! HzLike ! angry boos
aawarni.
"H-x-z-z ! llzzz ! llz ! Hz ! Hz ! It was
the profanity peculiar to llio tele
phone. The girl's eyes \\orn big and
black and \\lld. She pressed her shak
ing hands to her temples. What
should she do ? What should anyone
do In any Instance but her duty ? She
lifted her hands to Iho plug.
"That you , sheriff ? " Pardon me.
You waul , what ? The coroner's of
fice ? " Her Blinking hand was sus
pended. It seized the plug.
"Yes. The coroner's office at home
Yes. Theio , Mr. Sheriff. " She untile
hack In her chair and clasped Un
hands that were no troublesome.
"O. God ! " she breathed. "O , God ! "
"Hz/ ! " challenged llio board again.
"Hzz ! "
"Yes ; who Is it ? The sheriff ? Yes , ,
wait a minute. "
Again the shaking hands refused
their ofllcf. After all ho was her
brother. Maybe ho was innocent
I Hood \\as thicker Hum water , had a
stronger claim greater than justice.
Should she wain him ? She know
the telephone number of his boardIng -
Ing house in Chicago. A few woids
from her and he could have live
hours' start of his pursuers.
"H/.z ! II/.z ! " The telephone was
showing the anger and impatience of
the person at the end of the line.
Rllla Webster paid no attention.
She reached for another plug. She
shifted H. Her voice came almost
n a whisper.
"That you , Chicago ? Got mo no ,
lon't. A mistake. Pardon mo. "
"Hzz ! " shrieked tlio switchboard.
"Yes , Mr. Sheriff. Yes , 1 can get
il the state's attorney. He tolo-
ihoned from his club a llttlo while
ngo. "
Temptation again throw Its black
shadow across her path , shutting out
ho light of duty. She could fall to
ocato the state's : > tlnrnoy. It would
w so easy.
"H/.z ! "
"Yes. The Country club ? Yos. .
ho state's attorney there ? Pleas. .
; et him to the phone at once. The
ho sheriff
"No , nothing at all , thank you
i slight cold poi haps. Can you get
lim to the telephone ? Yes , Mr. Slier-
ff they've sent for him. There lie
s. "
The work was admirably done. The
dioril'f got his papers , made his train ,
net tlio plain clothes men from the
lollce department , captured Dr. Web
ster , helped to put him through the
: hiid degree anil wring from him after
live hours the confession of how he
5 killed his wife to avoid a charge of
i bigamy.
In the excitement that followed In
both cities the fact that Rilla Web-
tor , telephone operator , was tound in
a swoon beside tlio switchboard al
most escaped notice. So did the fact
that Rilla Webster was the murderer's
sister.
Miss Webster was ill for two weeks
after her brother's arrest. From her
sick bed she told why she bad per
formed a deed as heroically unselfish
f as that of the Roman Judge Brutus ,
when sentenced bis own son to death
for disobedience to the laws of Rome.
"Yes , it was a terrible experience , "
ishe said. " 1 would rather have died
s than gone through it. I wonder that
I did not die or go crazy while I sat
o at the board listening to the men
B who could hang my brother. "
"But you could have saved him. "
"Yes , I could have tipped him off
at ills boarding house. I know the
number. I even called Chicago. But
when I got Chicago I couldn't speak.
Do you know what saved me , kept me
steady , made me do my duty ? It was
just like a voice whispering over my
shoulder , 'i text I learned at Sunday
e bdiool , 'Thou God seest me. ' I knew
il that if no one else knew it He knew
it. I am glad. For I did my duty. "
