Deadwood special: Probably in pro-
portion to the population there are more
veteran soldiers OF the union army In
Dakota than in any other part Of the
country. These soldiers are certainly
not lacking in ability and integrity and
are competent to fill any Offices under
the government. Deadwood and vicinity
have SIS large q percentage of union
veterans OF high character as any section
of the territory or country. In view of
this fact does it not seem somewhat re.
markable that nearly all the federal and
territorial appointments at this place
have been conferred upon ex rebsl SOL
diers and that not an office of this char
aoter Is allowed to be filled by O union
soldier? II any e doubts this state
ment, here ia she list:
Judge of United STATED and district
court, O. M. Thomas, ex-rebel and car.
pet.bagger, from Kentucky clerk Uni

Jones, sx-rebel and carpet-bagger, from
Kentucky; United States commissioner,

maYshaI. Felix Ingram, ex-rebel; port
master, Dsadwood, B. P. Smith, ex-
rebel; A. d. O. to Gov. Church, HHger

II any OF these sppointees have any
special qualifications. except the fact OF
service in the rebel army, they are not
apparent.

Additional Details of Damage Expe
fenced by Yankton County Farmers

Additional "Details of Damage Exper-
ienced by Yankton County Farmers.
Reports of the damage by Sunday
evenings storm are slowly coming in,
most of the farmers not being able to
get to the city just now, on account of
harvesting. The surmises in regard to
the extent of the damage we're not in
the least exaggerated and there is cause
for hearty congratuiation in the fact
that nearly all the small grain was In
the shock or stack before the storm,
Corn suffered considerably, but it is
conceded that the damage can be almost
entirely repaired by q few weeks of warm
weather.
The losses to individuals which can
be vouched for are these: John Mac
gregor, who had SO acres of oats COM
pleteiy destroyed by hail; Mr.. Strunk,
whose barn was %unroofed; George Della.
no, who had 8 small barn entirely de-
molished; f. Wyman, whose corn crib
on his farm was blown over, and the
killing OF q fine colt belonging to a farm
er named Bunsted, living north Of this
city. Besides those losses there are
rumors OF the destruction OF fields of
grain in the James river and Turkey
creek valleys, but until some one from
those localities can be found nothing
authentic can be learned.
The Yankton insurance company is
hearing from policy holders who suffer-
ed losses from the storm very slowly,
but 1t is estimated that $500 will cover
the entire loss to the company.

This /. d. was recently addressed as
"Kid" by one of his older a~cquaintances
and in reply he informed the scqualnt-
ance that he was not 9 kid because his
mother was not a goat, The boy is too
old to die young, or there might be
cause for worry on the part of his
parents.
ii. W. Whites inventive genius has
evolved a curb stone for the %stonelesR
prairies of the west which will fill q
long felt want. 1t is not o curb stone
either, because 1t is made OF cast iron,
but it performs the office OF q curb
stone better than the original article and
costs only thirty cents per lineal foot.
Stone curbs cost in Yankton o dollar
and q hall for each foot. The advan.
tage of the White invention will be
observed.
Robt. Dickson played q practical joke
on a crowd which was listening to the
music OF the Italian band on Broadway
last night. Robert has one particular
musical selection which he is very par
tial and he had the band play that selec-
ton five times in succession, paying the
expenses himself, ~audkeeping the crowd
waiting to hear something more classical.
The Italians, however. were after
Roberts cash and the tune was played
oyer and over with much expression.
Robert paid $1.25 for the concert, and
succeeded in bringing down the house.
The storm of last night struck Ysnk-
ton with a suddenness which started the
soundest sleerers from their couches in
anticipation of q cyclone or something
worse. 1t came straigh. from the west
and although OF short duration it pro-
duced an iceberg effect upon the at
mosphere which the sun was compelled
to shine fiercely upon for several hours
before summer clothing Yves again
comfortable. All over the city for the
first few seconds of the blow was heard
the emphatic slam OF window sashea as
scantily Glad residents pushed then
down, and the man who succeeded in
not getting wet was fortunate. The
storm was q squall of brief duration.
