ised not to tell, and I'VE still affirm:
this is a great country.
ET Messrs. Lewis and Brown the gen
ptlemen who are to erect the Touring
mill in Kimball arrived from Lewis
vile, Ind, on Saturday last and are
now making necessary preparations
towards commencing work. They
are more pleased than ever with Da-
kota since coming from snow and ice
bound Indiana. and believe that in
kimball they have found a town that
cannot be beat for business, push and
enterprise.
The beauties OF spring inspires
many a man to make gardens and
claw around among the weeds in ear
" morning, but by the time the fam
lily hen investigates his work and the
festive weed steals gently alongside
the tender plants, and tbs snn attains
its full power, then will the industri-
GUS gardener abandon his charge and
drift back to the refreshing influences
of the shady side of the house, with a
firm resolution to raise his vegetables
IN some grocery store,
Geo. Smith and wife, living north
.of town were blessed with the arrival
of a little baby boy on Tuesday last,
being the tenth arrival of this nature
in the family. 1t certainly looks as
though BruIe county would never
lack for Smiths.
Ten little Smiths playing in the sun
Oh, my golly, wont they have fun?
N. B.-These little poems that we run off with
the stub of a pencil do not compare with thoso
of the Poet Laureate of the big Muddy" Col.
Sellers King, but they have a dash about them
that to a certain extent lis irresistible.
DR.. Fred Scott, a very quiet and
~inotfenslve young man, amused him
self Sunday night by firing ten shots
from his revolver at the twinkling
stars, from a window in his room
over the Farmers g. Traders Bank,
Patrolman Winberg had him brought
before his Honor, Justice Ryan on
Tuesday where he was assessed so
cents per shot, which he thought very
reasonable, Hiram Jameson, who
was with Scott at the time, was ar
rested under the same charge, but de-
manded a jury trial, through his attor-
ney, James Brown, which was accord
ed. The jury failed to find sufficient
evidence to convict HIM.
Geo. T.. Ordway, on Monday, Sc.
lected a list of newspapers three in
each of the five judicial districts, tina,
are to be official repositories for all
statements and reports of the so oil
40 insurance companies doing bust
ness in Dakota. AS he Surrendered
the office to II. w. Caldwell on Wed
nesday, it is natural that the papers
designated were approved by HIM
The peculiarly Of the list Is the
uaanimlty with whicl, democratic
journals are excluded. This being al
era of civil service reform, we arc
confident it will soon extend 10 the
newspapers. The swinish instinct o.
republicans stall stuffed and swill fec
for years is to gobble everything. IT.
apparent in this list of papers and il
is time it was checked. Mr.. Cald
well fondly f%ancies he is ensconset
in his present nest for two years de
spite the probable appointment of
democratic governor. Nebuchednez
Ear was equally confident, but was
turned out to grass ON much shorter
notice than this.-lfi.cheN Hull

A Chicago young lady who wa.
anxious to secure land OIL the Grow

big-footed bellies of that city of sin
and expects to hold down two quar-

On Saturday afternoon last Ere,
