parts Of the union, aud all seem to agree
that no better agricultural or stock rais'"H
country exis,s anywhere.
The railroad people AVE located y v
site three miles southwest OF the present
town, but nothing official has yet sranspired
in regard to il. 1t is to be regretted that
the Town question is not settled, that these
hundreds of energetic and impatient people
might know where to drive their perna-
nent stakes and begin business. About
twenty frame buildings have been erected
at Firesteel, az a matter Of necessity, and a
magic growth would be the result il the
railroad people would make this their
Mitchell City. II the location could be
settled BY the people here, 80 out of 100
would prefer to remain where they are.
Water is abundant here, and the level fat
and surrounding bluffs or rising ground
afford a good location and ample room for
a fine town. re
Grinding commenced west Of the Jim this
morning. Mr.. Lars Herman, who has the
contract for grading two miles on the west
side, crossed the Jim this afternoon and
went int0nemp with his men and animals.
One hundred and fifty men are at work on
the east side. They will complete the
grade to the river by the 2lst inst. All
along the line the work ia beirg pushed
with great vigor, and Mr.. Kimball, chief
engineer, kindly informed me that it is
designed to reach the Missouri river this
fall. The cars are expected to reach Fire
steel by September 1st.
l am forced to conclude that a thriving
city is now in the embryonic condition at
this place. These people mean business.
They have the snap, the intelligence and
the mesns to 60 ahead and build . town and
bring business to it. They are very court
eous and obliging without exception, and ]
feel like cordially thanking one and all
and Mr.. Greene particularly, for theil
unremitting kindness to me. G.

Thousands Of new settlers are crowdint
into the Jim river valley; towns are bsini
built, stores and shops and hotels are bsinl
opened /; farms are being improved, and
hundreds of thousands Of acres of prairie
land are being broken preparatory to next
seasons crop planting. This great influx Of
people and all the improvements they are
making creates . large demand for goods Of
all kinds-for groceries, clothing, hardware
and machinery Of all descriptions. The
people will buy in the market which gives
them the cheapest prices and furnishes them
the best facilities for transportation. Yank'
ton is now prepared to Offer them the advan-
tagss Of the first condition-cheap goods-
and the extension Of the Dakota South
ern road will furnish the best transportation
the valley can obtain. With the complef
ton of this road the great army Of industri-
Gus. intelligent and prosperous men and
women who are now peopling this great and
fertile valley will fnd Yankton their natur-
al outlet and most advantageous market.
With its completion will come to our
market the products Of fifty acres where
now we do not receive that from more
than one. Hundreds of stores. aud shops
and industries of all kinds will be added to
list Of customers. and our city will
grow in business. population aud wealth In
to the settlement and develop
ment Of the beautiful valley lying I o the
north Of it. The opportunity now present.
ed to our people to aid In furthering the
proposed extension Of this road and realiz-
ing the great reward which the present sac.
ri6ce will bring, should be embraced aud
carried forward withouts moments unneccs
sary delay. The prize is q large and noble
one. 1t is now within our reach, but delay
and inaction may place it beyond our con
troll and power to regain 1t.

Fridays storm.
Since our last issue We have heard Q
other Casualties BY lightning during tn
thunder storm Of Friday evening last. Gu
information in regard to the death OF Jacol
sieler near Odessa, was slightly erroneous
Instead Of being on his way homo with hi
cattle and horses attached to his wager
when the fatal bolt came down, he va
engaged in blowing. When the rain com

aad cattle from the storm, and took his po'
%sition; along aide Of them on the side from
which the storm approached, while his two
boys, aged respectively ten and twelve
years, and his dog, placed themselves on
the opposite side Of the team where they
were somewhat protected from the rain.
The bolt Of lightning which came down
upon them instantly killed Mr.. Sieler, the
horses, oxen and dog. and so stunned and
injured the boys that they were unable to
leave The spot. The boys limbs imnedi-
ately swelled up to enormous proportions,
and assumed q dark chocolate celored ap-
psarancs, while other parts Of their bodies
were schorched and blistered BY the electric
fluid. At first it was feared that the boys
legs would have to be amputated, but on
Saturday evening they were much improved,
it was thought they might recover with.

At Milltowa during the same storm. Ray
nond and Guy Wol6ng, young sons Of one
the leading citizens Of Armstrong coun-
y, were returning home from school at
Ailltown, both riding on one pony. When
about . half mile from town, the elder boy,
Raymond, who was riding in front, and
he pony were instantly killed by light

behind and had hold Of his brother, escap-

his parents of what had happened, and

attack of brain. fever. The doctor
Who was called to attend him says the cause
of his sickness is not the effect of the light
ming, but was induced by the shock to his
nerves and the terror occasioned by the
and terrible death of his brother.
On Saturday morning he was very sick, and
it was feared he would not recover.
At Lakeport, in this county, a horse be-
to John Flavin was killed by
lightning during the same storm.
