Brothers in the Church.

Tom Christopher has returned from
Hot Springs where he has been en-
ployed all winter on the Soldiers
Home building. Just before leaving
Tom, with several other workmen,
called on the county treasurer Who was
discounting the time about five per
cent. for the men, there being hitch
in getting the appropriation from the
state treasury. Tom waited until the
others had cashed their time and then,
calling the treasurer to one side, re-
marked to him confidentially:
"Say, you want to do little better
by me than the other fellows. be-
long to the same church you do"
The treasurer, who was devout
Methodist pillar, saw the point at
once, but whether Tom got better
discounu because OF his well.known
piety is not known.

1t was BaiIcy's Work.

The Sioux Fails Press makes the fol.
lowing contribution to Dakota histo-
ry, but modestly refrains from telling
how far "Cal' was responsible for the
recognition of Dakota at Chicago:
The New York Press has woven
quite a nice little poIitico-romantic
halo about the head OF Senator Moody,
attributing to him the work by which
Dakota territory got ten votes in the
last republican national convention.
Moody didn't do that work-it was .Jo
Bailey of Sioux Falls who planned and
executed it. He was there With PROXY
as q member OF the national commit
tee which determined the matter, and
there We're two or three times when
the question hung In the balance, wav-
ering against the project for admis-
sion, but .]o managed TO tip the beam
in behalf of Dakota's claim. II WASH t
Moody who, either hy management OF
labor, added single vote to Dakota S
representation in the last national con-
ventlon. He made a very nice delegte
after the representation was fixed
but even then he wasn't the architect
OF any conspicuous results further than
securing recognition of the Dakota
question in the national platform.

Chas. MIX Is All Right.

The following extracts from the
Chas. Mix Co. News are respectfully
referred to the Omaha railroad people:
While Charles Mix county is not hog
gish in the least she has some 10000
heaa of hogs, and still there more to
follow.
Those little pigs that were in clover
last summer in Charles Mix county
are now going into pork barrels at
Sioux City.
The farmers of Charles Mix county
don't want any seed wheat. They will
take ears of corn and little pigs in
theirs.

the extension of her present railroad
lines in two directions absolutely as
sured, with the corn belt of South Da.

The Worlds fair project seems to
have been dumped from the frying pan

as though Mr.. Depew was right when
he said "if Columbus could have fore
seen this row, he never would-have
discovered America at all.

sides In Tiverton, hired In an intelligence
ofIico I'm Boston woman named
Belle McGregor for general house
work. She seemed particularly inter-
ested In religious matters, but proved
q faithful servant till Friday. Sud
denly while Mrs. Barker was alone with
her, Belle shouted: % have had vision
and am ordered to offer up a sacrifice"
She started into the kitchen and began 10
sharpen carving-knife. Mrs. Barker, who
Is slight woman, realized that she had a
maniac to deal with, and throwing up her
hands as Belle had done, said: ], too,
have had vision. There Is letter In the
postoffico for you. You must go for it,"
Belle dropped the knife, rushed out of the
door and Mrs. Barker slipped the bolt into
place. The servant heard II ana realized
that she was outwitted. Her rawlings at
tracted the attention of the neighbors, and
she was finally placed under restraint.
Later she was allowed to leave for Boston.
After her departure pile of inflammable
material, well saturated with oil. was found
in shed. An attompt had been made TO

Blaino AgnInst Road.

In an election contest In the Illinois
House of Representatives a few years ago
the same question arose In regard to quo-
rum as at Washington on Wednesday.
The Democrats refused TO vote and broke
the quorum. The Republican speaker tele-
graphed to Mr.. Blaine, at that time
speaker. whether he could not arbitrarily
declare a quorum present when the fact
was apparent by count. Mr.. Blaine replied
In the negative, and defined parliamentary
law upon the subject. Illinois Republicans
acquiesced in Mr. Blaine's decision, but 1t
lost them the fight.
