with any newspaper published in the
United States at a reduced rate. It

you satisfactory rates. Cash must ac-
company all orders.
The annual meeting of the South
Dakota Educational Association IS to
be held in Parker December 26, ~ and
%. Reduced rates have been secured
and 1t is hoped every teacher In the
state will make special effort to be
present. Let all interested make this
meeting a grand educational rally. An
excellent program will be carried out.
The ladies of the Onida w. G. T
u. wish the WATcHMAN to extend
their thanks to Rev. G. W. Cruger for
preaching a temperance sermon some
time since, and Rev. M. Ash for preach
ing a sermon last Sabbath, the Goth
anniversary of the inauguration of the
Woman's Temperance Crusade, upon
that subject, under the auspices Of the

"A meeting of the residents Of
Onida township was held at the Court
House Monday afternoon to consider
the question of securing an Arteslan
Well. VIM. Toomey was elected
chairman and Harl Porter secretary.
After some discussion it was decided
to take the necessary preliminary
steps, and Wallace Lilly, L. Living
stone, w. N. Meloon, j. B. Cotton
and A. A. Faust were appointed a
committee to draw up petition and
secure the required number of s'gners,
requesting the State Artesian Well
Commissioner to locate we'll in this
township. But little opposition has
been developed to the scheme, and it
now looks as if Onida township would
soon be in fair way Of securing a
"gusher." A good rtesian well
would be grand thing for the neigh.
borhood, good;advertisment for the
county and an enhancer of values IN
the whole township. By all means
keep the scheme moving until the
water is spoutlng. Another meeting
will be held on Saturday, 23rd, at
o'clock in the afternoon.

THE KEY DID NOT FIT.
Got the Wrong One and Could
Not Enter the House.

There is an old saying, and perhaps a
pretty true one, too, that Glove laughs
at lOcksmiths." At any rate, the lock-
smiths, or, rather. their productions
sometimes get the laugh on us. have
you ever been unusually delayed by
some long night session Of your lodge
Gas you tell your wife) and zie-zagged
your way home in the carly morning
hours? When you p1lled out your
nigat-latch key at the front-door that
was the time the lock had the laugh on
you, for it was as hard to bit the hole as
it is to bring down flying snlpe with
shotgun.
Colonel John Bell Bigger was pretty
lively fellow in his early days and can
tell YOU a good deal about loYe-and
lockpmiths, too, for that matter-but he
and friend had a rather Iuzzllng expe-
rience with key not long time ago.
When the electoral college OF Virginia
was in session here last week !he colonel
acted as secretary for tine body and he
selected MIR. William II. Mann, OF Pc
tersburg, better known rs " Billy, Tor
his assistant. After the college had com
pleted their business Hon. X. {. Kent
entertained the whole party at Ruegers,
while Captain +. II. Lassiter wound mp
the business 10y doing the champagne
act" at the Westmoreland. The Colo
mel. be it stated parenthetIcally, had not
shown UP at his house since early morn,
for politics and good living are enough
to make any fellow forget his Penates.,
At a late hour his friend Mann, who
always stops ut the COlOnels house when
here, asked the genial statesman for the
kew TO his front door, 81 that he cOnld
get IN without disturbing the family.
The kew was produced, and Just before
the roosters began TO announce the adj
vent Of morning BILLY repaired to the
residence of the Colonel. where he made
several Intellectual efforts to get IN. He
did everything except stand on his head
to oct that key to unlock the door, but
his efforts were useless. Much de-
pressed in spirits and somewhat tired, "
he went back to the WestmOreland-Club
house and passed the night within its
comfortable walls.
Upon meeting Colonel Bigger at his
Office the next morning, Mr.. Mann
started to return the key TO him, when
10 and behold he saw that instead of
tho regulation niGht-latch, he had the
Dost-oiiice KEY TO the lOck-bOx. Billy ~
insisted that the Colonel had given it to
him, and a spirited controversy arose as
10 whether Mann or his friend had taken
the key off the ring. The dispute never
was satisfactorily settled. but both the
Colonel and billy have agreed that
the mistake, no matter whose it was, is
entirely que to an exuherance of pohti-
cal enthusiasm. caused by the elevation
of the "man Of destiny" to the presi-
Dental char.
