The cther Side.

DR.. Brown: of Pierre, chief of the
Health Board was here the first of the
week to examine into the case of Mr..
Bausums little girl who is afflicted
with bad skin disease. During Mrs.
Bausums visit east this summer a
physician there pronounced 1t leprosy,
either from ignorance or in hopes of
getting profitable case to treat. The
residents of Breton have been much
excited over the matter and in response
TO a general desire the health officer
was notified. DR.. Brown says he will
stake his professional reputation on it
being nothing more than a severe case
of eczema, or salt-rheum. All friends
of the family will rejoice with them
that their bright little daughter is not
afflicted with something wholly incur
able. The Pierre correspondent who
telegraphed the daily press that it was
a case of leprosy should do justice to
the family and the town by now re-
porting the truth.-Harrold Star.

A DEADwooD correspondent of the
Pioneer Press evidently believes in
political activity from the Statehood
campaign he has mapped out for next
year. He wants special session of
Congress to "pass the enabling acts in
April, then we can elect delegates to
the constitutional convention in May,
frame the constitution in June, adopt
1T in August, elect state officers in
and when Thanksgiving
day rolls around in November, with
all their state machinery in motion,
the people of the great Northwest Will
render such sincere and pious thanks
as viii make the angels jealous"

the following to say about Kansas:
at is very cold and disagreeable here
winter and summer all mixed up.
Don't have such nice fall weather as IN
Dakota, and don't see as the season Is
any longer. We had killing frosts in
September; ice formed last night so
thick 1t would bear a man. | don t
suppose you have had any snow yet.
We had big snow storm and the snow
Is not all gone yet" We have no

noantiful Woods of California.

Some of tho natural woods of California
and Oregon arc coming into extensive use,
both at home and abroad, for interior finish,
the most valuable for this purpose being the
redwood, tho whito cedar, the laurel, and the
sycamore The redwood takes the lead in this
line, taking good polish, and, for general
use, wear and staying qualities, is alleged to
have no superior in any forest in the world
Tho laurel is smooth, firm, beautifully fig
rued, and altogether desirable wood The
voluo of the sycamore as all ornamental
wood has only quite recently become gener-
ally known, its grain being much like that of
tho eastern birch, having waving lines Gloss,
together, and, as it is quite tough and strong,
it possesses superior value for vencering.
Tho Oregon ash is of beauty and utility for
decorative purposes, is figured with concen-
trio curves, and allows un attractive polish.
Tho maple of that state is also of beautiful
appearance, light yellow in color, and a sur
face covered with small, wavy lines, OF IS
pecial beauty in tho gaslight.-New York

A story Of personal heroism has come to
our knowledge which certainly deserves to be
told, although, for excellent reasons which
cannot here be stated, tho names and precise
location cannot be given. The other day, on
one of the streets of Boston devoted to resi-
dences, q young lady-a cultured, wealthy
and society" girl-looking from a second
story front window, saw servant girl run
from the opposite house, with her clothing
all ablaze 1t was the work of an instant to
seize large sofa blanket and run down the
stairs, out into the street, pursue the fright
ened girl, and wrap her in the big red
blanket. Remembering the furious wind, it
was one Of those times when minute
counts. To the young lady's bravery the
poor girl owes her life, as the street was
almost deserted, and Investigation afterward
showed that the clothing was nearly oil
burned from her body. Of her skirts nothing
was left but the bindings and ragged
fringe; her hair was singed and the exposed
flesh badly burned. 1t is a pleasure to be
able to say that the young lady did net re-
ccivc the least injury, if slight strain Of the
wrist be excepted.-Boston Transcript.

The Origin "Leap Year"

The custom observed every fourth year of
permitting 3hc faircr sex to assume the rights
and prerogativcs appcrtaining to their
brothers during the remaining three is a
very ancient one. When it originated is not
definitely known, but law enacted by tho
parliament of Scotland in the year Of 12SS is
doubtless the first statutory recognition of
the custom. The law Tas as follows: sit is
statut and ordaint that during the reino of
her lnaist blissit Inegestie, ilk fourth year.

wedding PRESENTS in France.

Wedding presents have become so gorgeous
that people Of moderate means are afraid to
send what they can afford. This fashion,
started among the frugal Dutch, Of giving
the young couple their household furniture
and o sum of money to begin life with, has
degenerated into vulgar display of wealth.
The French have visor plan. The relatives
make up sum Of money as wedding gift
and send it to the brides mother, who spends
it for her daughter in jewels, laces or what
ever seems best. We have had the good
sense to abjure the English wedding favors
made of white satin ribbon and artificial
flowers, some for horses ears and servants

A Ten Acre Crave.

One of the largest graves in which single
person is buried to be found in this country
is at Pinckneyville, Ills. A single slab marks
the spot, but the grave is about ten acres in
extent. Some years ago the deceased and
his sons were operating coal mine over
there. One day the old man went into the
pit alone to inspect it. While he was in re-
mote gallery the roof of the mine caved in
and the waters of subterranean stream
flooded the mine. 1t was, of course, impossi-

and erected the headstone sacred to their
fathers memory. : Ed. Dewey in Globe
