A. p. NJ. Peterson, the postmaster at
Friedhem, Charles Mix county, had
his house burned on the 14th of Janu-
ary. 1t was insured in the Dakota
Fire and Marine Company, of this
city. Owing to some changes in his
house and its surroundings which had
not been corrected in the policy, Mr..
Peterson feared his policy might be in
validated. He was on the point OF
coming to Mitchell and having the
policy suitably corrected when the fire
came. He was fearful lest the COM
pany take advantage OF legal tech
nicality and refuse settlement, but in
stead the purpose of making the
changes in the policy was accepted for
the deed aud settlement in full prompt
ly made. Mr.. Peterson is very mate

SOCIAL EVENTS.
An Enjoyable Affair With Prize
Drawings.

Monday evening there was union
open meeting of the G. a. r., w. r.. G.
and $. of V. at their hall in the Burr
block. The attendance was unusually
large, and the enjoyment was of that
hearty, spontaneous sort which has
come to be expected as matter of
course at these open meetings. In
formal conversation was followed by
brief addresses, equally informal. from
Capt. Silsby, Judge Abbey, Ill. q.
Myers and J. q. Purdy. The speakers
were pleasantly introduced by COM
mander r.. 7. Robnson. There were
lHterspersed between the speeches sew
eral patriotic songs, right enthusiastic
ally rendered by the S. of V. Glee
club, duet by the Misses Brashear,
and recitation by Miss Lizzie Bra
shear, which was eNcellently delivered.
Following came the vent about which
centered the chiefesJ interest - the
drawing of the elegant scarf pre-
sented to the G. a. r. by Mrs. p W.
Spellnlan. The 200 tickets which had
been sold at S. Ill. Scallius were put in
a hat and drawn out by a little girl.
The last ticket drawn was awarded
the prize. This proved to be the one
bought by photographer L. A. Stair.
Any disappointment which unsuccess-
full tickst holders may have expert
enced was completely and pleasantly
removed by the Refreshments which
We're next served. The desire, how
ever, to try chance in the Turing lot
terry was rather increased than other
wise and tickets were readily sold on
a souvenir rug Of the late national en-
campment at Milwaukee. After the
serving Of the refreshments there was
another drawing similar to the one al
ready described and Mrs. Margaret
kanoutf was the lucky holder of the
ticket which persisted in staying in
the hat until all Others had been
drawn.

In stating the facts as to the pres
ence of dipththeriss in this city, with
out exaggeration or sensational en-
bellishment, the REPUBLICAN has
done what it believed to he its duty
toward the community. The almost
criminal carelessness attending the
early stages of the Leslie case make
imperative the most stringent meas
ures to prevent repetition of this
negligence, and we believe the public
ity which has been given this matter
will result in summarily checking the
disease. The naturally healthful sur
roundings of Mitchell homes insure
against any disorder becoming cpl
demic, but at this time of widespread
sickness all over the country every
possible prevention on the side of safe
ty should be observed.

n Surprise PARTY.

Mr.. and Mrs. A. II. Iolcomb were
agreeably surprised Monday evening
by large number of friends coming
en- masse to their home on east Fourth
street. These friends were on pleasure
bent. No other proof Of this could be
desired than the fact that they bore
baskets of dainty eatables. This pur-
pose of pleasure was realized Several
hours were enjoyably spent and the
party was voted a decided success.

An Appreciat1ve Reader.

Geo. r. Mosher writes the Mitchell
Printing Co., from Parish, New York,
as follows:
Gentlemen: Enclosed you will please
find post Office order for four dollars
to apply on subscription to the CAPI-
TAI. Please send receipt tor full time,
Ii Mitchell has improved as much as
the CAPITAL you ought to have a
boom soon.
The inference drawn by Mr.. Mosher
is not wholly erroneous. The improve
ment of the CAPITAL is not only an
index of the condition of Mitchell, but
also a sure proof of the CAPITALS

The report made by Don G. Need
ham on the condition and needy Of
South Dakota farmers comes in good
time and will do a great deal toward
counterscting the malicious slanders
which have just been revived against
the state. Mr.. Needham's facts and
figures carry the conviction of PAINS
taking truth with them, and make
some points that are worthy of consid-
Grafton even in years when there is no
drouth.

his duties until the close OF the strug-
gle. After being honorably discharg-
ed,he returned to his home, and culti-
waited the arts of peace as carefully
and thoroughly as he had the arts of
war In the spring of 1882 he came to
Dakota to seek home for himself and
family. While engaged at his trade
(carpenter) at Sioux City, he fell vic

Mrs. Patrick had him removed to
Ethan so that she might be able to
nurse him herself, but with all the
careful nursing he gradually grew

The closing of this life was not like
the gorgeous setting of the sun after
a astormy day, nor like the close of the
day amid dark storm clonds; but like
the setting OF the sun on calm clear
evening. When asked by his wifecon-
cerning the future, he said that he
knew "It is we'll with my soul.'
Mr. Patrick leaves a wife and four
children to mourn his loss. At the re-
quest of his relatives his remains were
taken to Richland. Michigan, for in
terment. Mrs. Patrick and family ac-
companied the body east and will re-
main there. Thus a cloud has settled
upon Ethan, by this double loss, for
they were loved and respected by all
who knew them. The prayers of
Christian people of this neighborhood cd
will follow sister Patrick TO her new
home. May her life be calm and peace
ful after this fierce storm that has
swept over her. 7. III.

that members present were present

age of ten years his parents removed

One teaspoonful OF flour of sulphur
dissolved in a wlneglass of cold water.
Put the sulphur into the glass first and
pour on very little water and rub to-
gether with the finger, then fill the
glass with water. Sulphur will not
mix with water easily and it is neces-
sary to use the finger in place Of a
spoon. Gargle the throat well with
this mixture, allowing some to be
swallowed.
Repeat every three or four hours
until the white spots disappear.

If the throat is inllamed and there
are no white spots to be seen, use the
following: One ounce each of chlor-
ide OF potassa, borax and sugar. Dis

IT seems they are having some
trouble in Maury county. The fol-
lowing, from the Columbia Herald,
contains so much good democracy
that we reproduce it. and invite
every man in Hardeman county to
read 1t carefully:
Our aggressive young Chairman is get
ting ready for the fight, and proposes very
soon TO make n charge upon the enemy.
When we say the enemy we mean the men
who are opposing the Democratic nomi-
nees. Whether they call themselves De-
mocrats, Independents or Republicans, if
they are fighting the action Of the Demo-
cratic convention they are enemies to the
Democratic party, and must be treated as
such. This way Of men calling them
selves pemoci ats, and all the while fight
ing the nominees of the democratic par
~, is going TO play oIt right soon in
this county. For a man to be q member
of the Democratic Executive Commute
and help nominate a ticket, and then turn
about ind try to beat ii, is a piece of
treachery tie people of this county will not
ition and influence, TO call himself n De-
l.locrat, and at the same time use that
~ ne wealth. position and influence to
disrupt the Democratic party, is another
piece of double dealing the Democr ats of
this county have grown heartily tired of.
The Democrats in this county who are
Democrats from principle are tired Of be-
ing shot at from ambush, and they pro-
pose to fight back. In other words and
in short, the fight henceforward is to be
made all along the line. The Indepen-
dent candidates and their Mugwump al
lies are very fond Of calling the Execu-
tive Committee the Machine" Well
this same machine" proposes to turn a
crank or two and draw the line; the peo-
pie who claim to be Democrats, and will
prove their faith by their works, will be
found on one side, and they propose TO
treat as enemies the men who are lighting
them, whatever they may call themselves.
