SOMETIME ago a young man, who
resides across the Sioux, became en-
gagged to a young lady in this city.
His attentions were devout in the
extreme, and they got far enough
along to talk about their household
effects. The mother and other sis
tiers were consulted and all seemed
fixed" But this world is full of
tough disappointments. Not long
since the prospective groom rode
across the country to see his betroth-
ed; but soon after his arrival the
young lady told him she had chang
ed her mind and would not marry
him. The shock to him was terri
BILE. He cried, pulled at his hair,
declared he would die, would not
eat, intended to drown himself, and
might possibly roam the prairies as
an outlaw, but the girl smiled at his
agony and told him to walk in,
as she had no further claim on him.
But the young man didn't do any
thing of the kind. He is engaged
to another, and was in the city the
other day to tell the news to his old
girl. Girls, when a young man
! threatens suicide don't believe him,
as that is just a way men have Of re-
joicing in their freedom.

IT Is BOOMING
Reunion Cheering
and Hopeful.

AS will be cen by a notice else
where in this issue the date of the
reunion has been changed to Thurs
day the 10Th. This change was
made because of the election in
low on the 14th. Many Iowa sol
diers wish to attend, but could not
do so on election day, and earnestly
urged the officials to make the
change. We understand that sew
eral organized and equipped compa-
MES in Iowa will be present and par
ticipate in the exercises Of the day.
In this county and all over south
eastern Dakota soldiers are organic
ing and drilling. Large delegations
will be here from Yankton, Clay,
Turner, Lincoln and Minnehaha
counties, and, we are informed, that
northern Nebraska will be we'll rep
resented. Beyond a doubt near five
hundred veterans will take part in
the sham battle. A fort will be
built on the bluff south of the city,
and be garrisoned by a company of
Confederate infantry. All the ma
neuvers of the battlefield will be
gone through with on that occasion.
A regiment of cavalry, commanded
by Capt. VIM. Duncan, will take
part in the battle. There will be
several large cannons on the field
and in the fort.
In this city a company Of infantry
and cavalry will be organized, two
hundred strong, and be drilled by
Captains Hughes and Duncan. 1t
has been decided to have a regular
camp dinner on the open square
east of c. W. Beggs' residence. Ra-
tons will be issued by aquartermas-
ter. Soldiers are requested to bring
ground coffee, meat, tin cups and
knives. 1t is highly important to
bring guns in order to have the bat
tie a success. Shot guns, rifles, car
bines or muskets will do as well as
anything. Be sure to bring your
guns, and even those who were not
soldiers and have guns are requested
to bring them, and they will be ia
ken care Of.
Our people are making great prep
arations to entertain all who come.
| Those who remain over night will
be provided with lodging and meals,
and none need stay away on ac-
count of expenses. You will OBJ
serve that a very attractive pro-
gramme has been arranged for the
day and night.
As this may be the last reunion
ever held in this city, you are now
offered a chance to see life-like pict-
ures of the late war, which may be
the last chance you will ever have
without going many miles at a great
expense. Soldiers in this locality
are very enthusiastic over the COM
ing reunion, and that it will far excel
anything Of the kind ever held in
the west, il now conceded by al.

One evening last week a lady of
this city had quite an experience.
She took a small child to church,
and, when services were over, she
left the church forgetting to take her
child along, which was lying asleep
in the pew. After she got home,
and was about ready to retire she
missed the little one, and, after hun
ting all over the house, remembered
having left it in church. Her hus-
band being absent, she started out
alone and reused up the sexton, and
found her child asleep where she
had left it. We may get interview
ed with a broomstick for telling
what we have Of this last of forget
fulness, and Withhold the name of the
lady in order to ease the punishment.

lT is surprising what a vast num-
Der of pigs, chickens, turkeys, ducks
and geese have been taken from this
county to the Hills during the pres
ent season. Many tons of butter
and thousands of dozens of eggs
have also been freighted across the
plains, and sold at good prices. The
result is that people have been able
to market a surplus production at
profitable figures. But it is evident
that when Deadwood gets an outlet
through a railroad, freighting from
this part of Dakota will be far less
remunerativc than to day, when
men with teams and a few dollars
to buy loads can make fair wages
and an encouraging per cent. on the
money invested.
