OPEN YOUR PURSE STRINGS
And Help Dakota's Destitute and Starv-
ing Drouth Sufferers

H. C. Briggs, of Ipswich, Edmunds
county, South Dakota, is in Grand Rap

sufferers OF that county. The whole of
South Dakota is equally in misery, but
Edmunds county is the only district
from which he is accredited.
Mr.. Briggs carries letters of introduc-
ton and Endorsement from Governor
Millet and Edmunds county officials.
He tells piteous story of the destitu-
ton of the people of his region. The
average of wheat IN his county Is a
yield of only 72-100 bushels to the
acre, other crops in proportio,n and the
consequent suffering Is very great. An
effort will be made to induce the rail-
roads and elevators to supply wheat for
seeding purposes. This, however, is
not Mr.. Briggs immediate mission here.
He wants our citizens to contribute sec
ond-hand clothing, shop-worn goods,
money. provisions, and whatever would
be applicable TO the relief of destitute
people. His state can not furnish any
further help, "a its limit has been
reached, the constitution only allowing
an Indebtedness OF $500, 900.

scribei.

PREscorr, Ari., Feb. pa messen-
ger arrived here late last night from the
scene of the recent disaster at Walnut
Grove Dam. Sheriff DWELL, in letter
by this messenger, writes as follows:
ROUARK's RANCH, Feb. 2i.-The
scene of desolation along the Hassay-
ampa, below the sites of the dams, Is
complete. A tornado could not have
made such a complete wreck. For
miles the waters, turned free by the
breaking of the dam, filled the bed of
the creek with the bodies and with
enormous bOulders, trees, and
every other kind of debris. When
all casualties are ascertained, +,
the entire loss Will probably be between
80 and 90 lives. The bodies thus far
discovered number about a dozen,
many which were found 20 and 80 miles
from the place where the flood over
took them all. The remains are more
or less mutlated, while IN several cases
only fragments have been recovered as
the force of the flood was so terrific
that many bodies have doubtless been
buried IN the sand, others torn to pieces
and others carried far south.
