Mr. School has been on the trail of Darling
for the past year but lost track of him
everal months ago. and finally learned
of his operations In Day county, and where
he was laying the foundations for another
escapade. Two weeks ago Darling was
married to Miss Agnes Curran of lioston,
Mass , who came out west to fulfill her
part of the marriage contract, but his
strong desire to keep the marriage abso
lutely secret led to Investigation and his
later discovery. When arrested Darling
had Just opened his school for the day.
Darling had eleven suit cases In his pos
session, which ho had stolen from various
hotels In the state, most of them from one
of the hotel at Chamberlain.
Admit Severn! Murrlnnea.
Darling admitted, when Interviewed here
today, that he has been married three or
four times. The Indications are that there
are more victims, mostly school teachers.
From his converkatlon It la believed that
he employed a system of finding school
teachers who were living on claims, would
woo them for a short period and then
marry them. Afterwards he would dis
pose of the relinquishment and then leave
them alone. Ono of his methods of obtain
ing money was to visit banks, as he al
leges, borrow money on the fact that he
was a school principal, the amount vary
ing from $10 up. lie has been carrying on
a correspondence with a great number of
women bearing on the subject of matrl
money. According to Nebraska reports Darling
has operated in that state, as well as In
Wisconsin, Iowa, North and South Dakota,
where It was his custom to call at post
offlcus and inquire for mall belonging to
other persons. In support of this Darling
had in his possession between 600 and 70o
letters bearing the addresses of other peo
ple. It Is likely that the government will
take him in hand for his operations along
this line. Darling seemed to take his
arrest coolly and gave little heed to what
Is in store for him in the future.
Basil Claymore One
of Dakota's Pioneers
Lived on Little Bend, on East Side of
Missouri, Where Maintained
Large Establishment
PIERRE, 8. D., No. 2&-(BpeoLaI.) In
the death of basil Claymore at the home
of his son Basil near the mouth of the
Cheyenne river yesterday South Dakota
loses another of the pioneers who helped
pave the way for the coming of the foam
ing settlements by his work long before the
country was considered as one In which
agriculture would thiive.
Claymore, as he was generally known by
his many acquaintances in this part of
the state, or "Clement," as he la called
by his biographers, was born In Bt. Louis
early in the lust oentury, the datea being
given at from 1822 to 1843, Claymore himself
saying he came-up the river for the fur
company In June, 1M3, when he waa 20
years old. and has resided in the Dakotaa
ever since. In that time he worked as a
trapper for the American Fur company at
points along the Missouri as far up as
Fort Benton, but most of the time in the
territory covered by the Dakotas.
Soon after coming up the river he took
an Indian wife and located his home in
little Bend on the east aide of the Mis
souri, opposite the mouth of the Cheyenne
river. Here he called home in all his
wanderings up to the time the days of the
fur trader were no more, and when that
part of the territory was opened to settle
ment In 1884 he moved across the Missouri
to a point on the west side of the river a
short distance up stream from the mouth
of the Cheyenne river, where he has made
Ms horns with his sons since, his home for
nearly seventy years having been at the
mouth of the Cheyenne river.
But during that time Claymore wandered
over a great part of Uie northwest, either
as a trapper or fur trader, or as a govern
ment scout. lie trapped In the Black Hills
In 1818, and on the Cheyenne and Moreau
rivers later. In 1861 he acted as a guide
for General llaruey. and was again an
mploye of the company until 13, when
he acted as guide for General Sully in
his campaigns against the Sioux In the
Dakota territory. After that he put In a
portion of his time at his horns In little
Bend, and acting as Interpreter and guide
for different government parties operating

such expeditions, and making one trip to

Elephant is Executed
for Killing Keeper
Gypsy Queen, Trick Animal, is Given
Five Hundred Grains of Cyan
ide of Potassium.
NEW YORK, Nov. 26,-It took 600 grains
of cyanide of potassium, the most deadly
poison known, to kill Gypsy Queen, a
trick elephant, executed today for the mur
der of a keeper, Robert Pchiel. on Ootober
20. Less than one grain Is ordinarily fatal
to man and the first convulsive symptoms
supervene almost before the victim can
set down the glass from which he swal
lows. Gypsy Queen swayed backward and
forward, flapping her big ears ten minutes
before she showed the least uneasiness.
It was forty-four minutes before she was
pronounced dead.
Th nnlfion waa Clven In lhr DAjtfuls
of bran mash, in which had been sprinkled !
100 capsules, each of five grains of cyanide.
She had been starved for twenty-four
hours and ate greedily. At the end of ten
minutes she shivered in all her vast bulk
of 7.860 pounds, her knees weakened, her
trunk grew rigid, she rolled her eyes and
finally fell. In the next two minutes ahe
got up four times, struggling against the
chains that bound her. At the end of
twenty minutes her breathing was im
perceptible, but forty-four minutes after
her first swallow she winked when her
trainer passed his hand before her eyes.
That was the lost sign of life. The Queen
was born in Africa eighty-seven years ago
and was one of the largest elephants In
captivity. She stood eight feet seven
inches high. Of recent years her temper
grew sullen.
Last October she seized an unaccustomed
keeper, who had been warned not to go
near her, slammed him against the wall
of her cell and then trod him into pulp. A
few days ago she grabbed for another
keeper, but he kept out of reach. Never
theless, her trainer never lost faith In her.
To prove her docility he took her out to
day a few minutes before her execution
and led her through her paces. She
seemed willing enough to perform and sub
mitted to be caressed before she was led
to her death.
Wood Asserts Nation
is Not Ready for War
Chief of Staff Paints Gloomy Picture
of Lack of Proper Preparations
for Battle.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 26. Major General
Wood, chief-of-staff, paints a rather
gloomy picture of the lack of preparedness
of the army in case of war In his annual
report to the secretary of war, made public
today. There were weak spots In many
directions, he said, and most serious was
the shortage of field artillery and ammuni
tion, a fault which should be Immediately
corrected. General Wood declared there
was a great lack of reserve seacoast am
munition and that at the present rate of
appropriation by congress It would take
more than fifty years to obtain a reason
able supply of ammunition for the coast de
fense and a still longer time to obtain the
necessary artillery and ammunition.
If the regular army and organised militia
strength were called to arms today, said
General Wood, there would be a shortage
of more than 60 per cent In the field
artillery necessary to equip them. This
force would represent only a portion of the
force called to arms In case of war with
a first-class power. General Wood strongly
urged the passage by congress of the pend
ing bill for raising a volunteer army In
time of war. "

Claarma Iters.
ST. LOUIS, Nov. 26.-The question of
whether the Western Federation of Miners
could be granted a charter by the Ameri
can Federation of l.abor was placed be
fore President Gompers last night by the
convention on a point of federation law
raised by Frtsldent James O Connell of
the International Association of Machin
ists. President O'Connell. who is leading the
fight against the proposition to grant an
unrestricted charter to the western miners,
declared that the constitution of the fed
eration provided that In cases where
charters were applied for, in which the
question of Jurisdiction came up, the
wiitten consent of the chief officials of
till other organisations involve' had to be
obtained first. He said Uiat he, as presi
dent of the machinists, hud never given
such consent, and asked that the point
be passed upon.
President Gompers waa unprepared to
act before adjournment was taken.
Whether the controversy will be re-opened
depends on whether Gompers renders his
decision. In response to demands that this
decision be made tomorrow, he said that
as soon as he had arrived at an opinion,
he would state it. Labor leaders tonight
say that he holds the key to the situa
tion. The controversy waa precipitated by the
report of the special committee,
favored granting the charter with
proviso that the Jurisdiction of
fhlch
the
the
machinists organization In
the states af-
fected should not be Interfered with. This
report was amended by President Thomas
L. Lewis of the United Mine Workers to
give the western federation Jurisdiction
over men employed In mines, mills or
smeiters, without reference as to whether
they were machinists or not.
Delegate F. M. Ryan of the Bridge and
Structural Iron Workers presented a sub
stitute for the Lewis amendment, providing
that Jurisdictional, rights should remain
vested in the international unions having
locals In any of the sections controlled by
the western federation.
Against the Ryan substitute Preslden
Lewis and John Mitchell of the mine
workers led the fight, with O Connell and
others supporting it.
O'Connell declared that If the charter
without restrictions was gi anted by the
convention his organization would with
draw from the federation.
Merer Eaplnlna.
Charles H. Moyer, nead of the Western
Federation and a guest of the convention,
by invitation explained that the invitation
to become affiliated with the American
Federation had been repeated yearly for
fifteen years. He said that the question
of Jurisdiction would not be serious.
. The report of the committee on the pres
ident's report, which was adopted, dlreots
that state federations in Pennsylvania,
West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wis
consin and Alabama Introduce bills before
the state legislatures providing for In
vestigation of the charges that the United
States Steel corporation Is importing crim
inal labor from Europe; that a committee
of five be appointed by President Gompers
to fully organise the departments of fed
eration; for more direct affiliation with
Porto Rico organised labor and criticises
the mounted constabulary of ' western
Pennsylvania, known as "Cossacks," urg
ing the Introduction of a bill to repeal the
law which authorizes them.
The convention adopted a resolution for
a memorial to congress urging the exclu
sion of Asiatic laborers.
Protest Treatment of ClgarmaVers.
The American Federation of Labor to
night unanimously adopted resolutions
protesting to Governor Gilchrist of Florida
against the so-cailed mistreatment of
union men In the Tampa clgarmakera'
strike troubles and demanded that the gov
ernor accord adequate protection to the
striking men.
The protest followed the receipts of a
telegram by President Samuel Gompers
announcing that a man named Johnson,
an organiser fr the union stationed at
Tampa, bad been ordered out of town by
the citizens today. The Florida governor
and the Tampa mayor and sheriff were
subjects of condemnation earlier in the
day, when President Gompers and other
delegates declared that union men were
not receiving the protection of the authori
ties. The president In a speech declared
that, with three men In prison and one
dead as the result of lynching, it was time
something waa being done.
Johnson Leaves T am paw
TAMPA, Fla., Nov. 26. J. C. Johnson of
Chicago, organizer for the International
Cigarmakers' union, accepted the advice of
the citizens' protective committee today
and left Tampa. He bought a ticket to
Jacksonville. No threats were made against
the organizer.- It was feared he would be
harshly dealt with.
Following the departure of Johnson state
ments were wired to President Gompers at
St Louis alleging that Johnson had been
ordered to leave the city. President Gomp
ers made a protest to Governor Gllohrlst,
who referred the affair to Mayor McKay.
Johnson had been In Tampa about eight
months and the present strike. Involving
nearly 10,000 workmen, Is attributed Indi
rectly to him. With the strained conditions
existing as a result of the critical business
situation, feeling against him has been
growing intense.
Six members of the dtisens' committee
early today called on Johnson and Informed
him of the bitter feeling against him. It
was suggested that threats had come to the
ears of the committee and that the com
mittee could no longer be responsible for
his safety.
A statement was made by a member of
the citizens' committee tonight denying that
Johnson had been threatened by the com
mittee. "We desired to prevent a recurrence of
violent scenes such as those of several
weeks ago when two men were hanged."
he said.

Takes Up Capital Punishment
and War Against It.
ST. PETERS m RG. Nov. 26 -The As
sociated Press received early today from
Vladimir Tschertkoff, literary anent of the
late Count Tolstoi, the last article written
by Tolstoi. It Is entitled "Effective
Means." it was written by Tolstoi in the
Opt.na monastery on November 11, shortly
after he began his self-imposed exile from
home. The article was given the Associ
ated Press by M. Tschertkoff at the ex
press wish of Count Tolstoi for dissemina
tion to mankind. It says In part:
'"I am naturally anxious to do all I can
against evil, which tortures the best spirits
of our time.
"1 think the prment effective war against
capital punishment does not need forcing.
There Is no need for an expression of
Indignation against Its immorality, cruelty
and absurdity. Every sincere, thlnkng
person, very body knowing from youth the
sixth commandment, needs no explanation
of Its absurdity and immorality. There Is
no need for descriptions of the horrors of
executions, as they only affect hangmen,
o men will more unwillingly become
executioners and governments will be
obliged to compensate them more dearly
for their services.
"Therefore, I think that neither the ex
pression of Indignation against the murder
of our follow men nor the suggestion of
Its horrors la mainly needed, but some
thing totally different.
"As Kant well says, there are delusions
which cannot be disproved and we must
commun rate to the deluded mind knowl
edge that will enlighten and then the
delusions will disappear by themselves.
"What knowledge need we communicate
to the duluded human mind regarding the
lack of lndlrpensableness, usefulness or
Justice of capital punishment in order that
said delus on may destroy Itself."
