Mr.. and Mrs. w. T. Neill and

Stewart Natter were over from Okobo-
jo Wednesday afternoon.
j. B. Cotton of Onida, and W. T.
Neill and R. M. Snyder of Okobojo,
have been drawn as jurors tor the next
term Of U. s. Court at Pierre.
Archie Brown, the Blunt black
smith, came up to Onlda the first of the
week to procure supplies for his shop.
Oflate Blunt people frequently come
to Onida to trade because they can do
better here than at home.
"A large number of Indians passed
through town Tuesday and Wednesday
on their way to Cheyenne and Stand
Ing Rock Agencies from Nebraska,
where they have been visiting and at
tending religious services.
Fred Boyer, who was resident of
the western part of this township in
1884, but has since resided near Chi
cago, expects to reach here to remain
permanently about October 10th, ac-
companied by his family. He will
build on his farm in Section 18.
-Mesdames A. M. Starks, VIM.
BohOn and Maria IT. johnson and
Chas. W. johnson expect to leave for
Chicago by next Monday mornings
train to attend the fair. Mrs. Starks
will 60 on to New York and the John
sons to New England to spend some
time visiting friends.
M. T. Wolverton of Campbell
county, and Col. Bolinger of Gettys-
burg, spent Wednesday night in town
They were here to secure the services
of surveyor to run preliminary line
for the Sioux City & Bismarck propos-
ed railroad between Gettysburg and
Bangor via Lebanon. 1t is proposed
that the road connect all the river
county seats, which would bring it
through Onida. J. M. Porter accom-
panied them to run the line.
The two young men who it is sup
posed set fire to the prairie near j. M.
Lindley's farm in Harrison township,
by leaving live Goals where they had
camped and cooked their dinner, one
day last week, were caught In Pierre
by Sheriff Smith Friday and bound
over before Judge Rowe to appear be-
fore our next grand jury for the crime.
The fire burned to the northwest de-
stroying grain stack belonging to Mr..
Lindley and large quantities of hay.
They were from the Black Hills and in
all probability will not be heard of
again.
One would infer from an article in
the last issue of the Times that the
proposed new bridge to be built at
Okobojo Is to be put at the out-of-the-
way place where the old one was built
and seldom used, and finally foated
away. If county money is to be ex-
pended for bridges they should be put
where they will do the most good and
accommodate the greatest number of
people, no matter If it should direct
travel to a different section line or
street to that passing the place of bus
mess any member of the board. AS
Mr.. McGannon is acting for the whole
people he should consider their inter-
ests, not his own, when expending coun-
ty money. The Times openly states
that no petition to place the bridge
at the point selected was ever circula-
ted in Okobojo village, which indicates
that some queer work has been done.

COMMERCE may be a cold blooded
occupation, as devoid of sentiment as
a fish, but sometimes things happen
that have wonderful appropriate
flavor even in trade. We note in this
connection the arrival of three steam
ships in Montreal in single day. the
first loaded with gin, the second with
lemons, AMI the third with sugar.
Montreal has no kick coming, and if
she can keep this sort of thing UP we
don't see why the United States
should object TO being annexed to the
dominion.

ONE Of the nephewS of the King of
Italy went to Monte Carlo and blew
in all his ready money and $50, 600
francs that he had deposited at Rome
The King of Italy has in consequence
issued an order forbidding any other
member of his family to go to Monte
Carlo on pain of being sent to mill
tary duty in Africa. The warning
was timely. It would not require
many such expenditures as that made
by this nephew before the hangers on
of Humbert's family would find it
necessary to look for work.

The well-known missionary, J. s
Baldwin, a conceded authority on all
Chinese matters says that If the pro-
visions of the exclusion act be en-
forced the Chinese Government will
retaliate by deporting Americans
from that country. Such a course
would work great hardship to the
many American merchants and BUSH
ness men residing IN the celestial
empire and would destroy at one blow
the fabric, at best insubstantial,
which the Christian missionaries
have been rearing for so many wears.
But such retaliation, if unaccom-
panied by the violence of which an
example has so often been set in this
county, would raise China in the re-
spect Of the nations Of the earth. II

WHAT Cuba wants with an az

WHAT Cuba wants with an at
tempted revolution just now is not
very clear. The whole island is
prospering greatly. More and more
OF the virgin lands are being taken
up for sugar cane cultivation: the lit
tie towns through the island are
growing fast The system of CEN
Trailing the sugar making which OBJ
tains in the central and southern
portions by allowing the farmers to
raise and cut the cane, is creating
a new middle class of well-to-do
people. A guerilla warfare-the onlv
war possible for the revolutionists-
would simply stop all this, return
large regions to the wilderness, and
re-lmpoyerish the whole people. The
path to betterment of governmental
conditions for Cuba lies wholly in the
field of intelligent agitation.

We may pass, before the end of the


century, from the iron age to the age
of aluminium. Such wonderful strides
have been made in cheapening the
production Of this wonderful white,
bright, light metal that it will come
more and more into use in everyday
life, and few more steps in inven-
ton may bring it into structural
work. There are some difficulties in
the way yet of this wholesale produc-
tlon OF the metal, although compar-
ing the nearly 300 tons of it made
last year with the few pounds of it
made annually twenty years ago, the
progress is something remarkable. 1t

And she'll melt and run to you

If you have sorrow. tell her,
Then just watch her ear-drops fall
And the signs she signs in silence
Are the saddest signs Of all.
