Mr.. Van Osdell has introduced in the
house bill to amend the charter of
Yankton city so as to take from its gene.
raj city fund the money paid for liquor
licenses and place it in the county
treasury. Under the present charter all
license money collected from liquor deal.
ers in the city goes into the city treasury
and is used to meet the expenses Of the
city. In return the city pays for the
support of its paupers. relieving the
county of that burden. This is the custom
in most incorporated cities and is just
custom. A majority of Mr.. Van Osdells
constituents would oppose his amend.
ment, if the opportunity was gwen them.
Yankton city pays over half the expenses
of the county by direct tax. 1t pays all
expenses arising from the liquor traffic
within it's boundaries. It cares for its
own poor. Instead of being burden
upon the county it contributes very
largely to the support of the county. II
is entitled to the profits arising from q
traffic which it regulates and controls
at its own expense. Mr.. Van
Osdel can advance no argument in favor
of his amendment; which We fear is put
forward for selfish purpose. The
license fund has been used largely to
improve and beautify the city, thus in.
creasing the taxablevalue Of its property
and adding to the worth of surrounding
farm property. 1t has been so far Judi.
ciously expended. 1t belongs to the
city and the city will not submit to Mr.
Van Osdel's proposed legislation unless
it is compelled to.

THE FLYING TRIP

OF the "SiIveI King Conpany-over a
Mile n Minute.
The Columbus Dispatch OF Thursday con
tanned the following account of the won
derful trip of the Silver King" company
from Chicago to Louisville, 10 miles, in
1857 minutes:
Yesterday, through the Associated Press,
the country was informed of what is believed
to be the quickest railroad time on record.
Our reporter having learned that Mr.. Chas.
W. Roberts, one Of the passengers on the
above lightning" train. who is also the gen
eral agent of Harry Miners Silver King
company, was in this city, called upon him
and obtained the following particulars: The
train, said Mr.. Roberts, was a special over
the Pan Handle road, consisting Of one 80
foot scenery car, one passenger coach and a
sleeper, engaged by Mr.. j. 81. Mack to carry
Miners Silver King Company from Chi
a 9 to Louisville in time to play IN
the latter city the same night. Our
train moved out Of the great Fort Wayne
and Pennsylvania depot in Chicago, at
1927 a. m, February 2. 1t was showing
hard. Through delays, caused BY the
numerous freight trains along the line, we
did not reach indianapolis until 1925 p.

Master of the j., NJ. & |. R. R., a branch OF
the Panhandle, running between Indian
apolis and Louisville, explained our Stua-
ton to him, saying that we must be IN
Louisville by ) p. m, else we could not get
our scenery to the theatre and put it up IN
time to play that night. After q moments
clicking with the little telegraph instrument
and a short consultation over watches,
timetables, etc, a slip ofpaper was handed
TO Engineer Morris, who Immediately
mounted his seemingly impAtientracer.
Conductor Neugent, n OF the hnest
little men living, shouted "All aboard, also
gently adding the pleasing remark that ne
would either land the Silver King Company
in Louisville or in a meadow by } P. m. In
less than one minute everything outside,
trees, houses, fences, telegraph poles, etc,
were as n object. We were simply flying,
and over a track so smooth that we never
would have imagined the rate OF

the windows. We lost in stops with hot
journals. etc., ~ minutes We lost IN

Wheeling house, disputed his hotel bill at
the Remington House last Saturday and
was ingloriously elected by the landlady.
He was under the influence Of too copious
rotations, and used strong language on the
sidewalk for a awhile. He then got in the
mail hack and started to Letart. AT An
tiouity be fell out of the hack and the wheel
a on his neck and dislocated his ear
or at least be thought it had moved down
about two inches. The team vas under
good control or be would have had his neck
broken. Some one jumped out and pulled
him from beneath the wheels before bis neck
was squeezed rery much When be cans
70 himself after the fall be thought he waa
wounded unto death, and sent word TO his
wife that he died happy. He did not de.
however. and is now recovering trou4 the
sIipht abrasions received in the fall.
