Horse Thieves.

The stealing of horses in Southeastern
Dakotai is becoming of alarming frequcn-
cy, and 1t is remarkable that in most in
stances not the slightest trace Of the stolen
animals is ever discovered. The latest
| Gao That we hear of occurred last Monday
night, when : horse beloning to H. w.
Kress, near this place, was stolen. A mys-
terious stranger, with black leather grip
strap, short in statute, andidresscd in dark
oyercoat, black pantsA Awitll. a blue bandker-
chief with rcd border, around his neck,
took supper at Mr.. Kress's house the ev-
ening Of the theft. No trace ofthe strang-
er had since been discovered. But recent
ly horse was taken from Lake County
and no trace has been found of it, and last
Wednesday an officer from Bon Homme
county was in Canton in search OF span
of mules and a dark brown mare. AL
though the officer had ridden over three
hundred miles in search of the stolen
property, no trace had been discovered. Is
there an organized gang? While there
may, as yet no cause for serious alarm,
this county may be afflicted 18th an or
ganlzation which has been of great daui.
age te other localities, at the time of their
settlement. Perhaps if q sort of vigilance
committee were organized, good result
might be had.-Siour Fails Independent

"A Fine Microscope for a few
..4. Cents.

A.well made, genuine Micrcscope-not
1 bi, of moulded gloss in paper or metal
ring, or tube-but enc with tri2le lenses,
Diaphgrsm, Stand, ETC., is not only usetuI
in every family, but is very interesting :
Such instruments have hitherto been too
cos tly for the general public. The Edit
ors of the Amertcxn Agrtculturtst, in con-
nection with an Optical Manufacturing
Company, have, after many experiments
and much invention, succeeded In pro-
ducing genuine microscope, with three
fine Lenses, Stand, ETC., which, by use OF
machinery, and very large manufacture is
+ now made at lar less cost than has ever
before been done. Scientific men, and
others, say it is decidedly superior to any
thing ever before offered so low as $S.5O
hut this one is sold fer $3.50. But one is
oiyen to every subscriber to the dnserseat:
Agriculturist. who simply adds 40 cents
to the regular subscription price-:hat 49,
the paper is sent one year, with the $l.oo
Microscope, for only $500. If to be DE-
| liyrersd free to any part of the country, 10
cents extra is to be added. A full descrip-
| tion and all particulars can be had BY
sending your address on Postal Gard to
ORANGE JUDD COMPANY, New York; Or
better still, send them 10 cents (half price,
for a post paid sample copy Of the paper
which will give, full description OF the
Microscope, and also much valuable read
|inr and en- cravings. etc.. and be richly
worth far more than its cost.

The PhonOgraph.

--Onc If the most remarkable features
Of the invention is the fact that the dia
phragm can be placed in steam whistles
and made to talk like a calliope. The
captains of ships at sea miles away from
each other could converse without trouble
and correct their chronometers. The
steam whistles would throw any voice In.
to artlculated speech. With a metal Dia,
phragm in the whistle of locomotive
the engineer could roar out the name OF
the next station in voice so loud that il
could be heard by every passenger on the
train, and by all within distance of two
miles. Placed in steam fire engine, the
chief engineer could talk to every fore,
man in the department without difficulty
no matter how great the uproar. A ma.
chine could be put in the Jersey City
railroad depot that would shout "Thls
