Our friend Person, of the Howard
Press, has discovered that two of his
contemporaries have been trying to
injure his business in an underhand way
by circulating reports to the efec. that
the Press is not a legal newspaper under
the law. He comes back at them in his
last issue in merciless shape and will no
doubt make them cringe with an awak.
ening sense of the smallness Of their
envious disposition. 1t does seem
strange that men can be SO small
grained in business as to resort to disre-
putable and unworthy ean to deprive
a competitor of an honorable living be-
cause they themselves could not get
the business he would, on the merits Of
the case. But there are just such jealous,
needle-pointed souls IN every community,
and we can ~sympathize with Bro. Person
in his undeserved affection.

Pierre Capital, %: At the land COM
missioner's Office reports from the vari-
GUS counties are coming in which show
that a greater amount Of the states
school lands are being leased this year
than ever before. From the reports re-
ceived it is evident that the income from
these lands leased this year viii amount
to at least $4,000. The income from the
fund received from the sale of lands will
amount to $4,000, thus making the in
come for the year about $4,000. In di-
rect contrast with the experience of the
school land department Of last year, this
year there are more applications for
school loans than there are funds to meet
showing that there will be no difficulty
for the safe and profitable investment Of
the vast fund which accumulates from
the sale OF land. The present perma-
nent fund, exclusive OF this years sales,
amounts to over s1,4O0,O0O, and this
years sales will add to that about $780,
600 making a total of s1,500,O00.

SOUTH DAKoTA.s BOOM.
Railroads Taxed to Take Care ofthe
Big Immigration.

Railroads Taxed to Take Care ofthe
Big Immigration.
Sioux Cry. Ia, April 21.-As q re-
suit of the immense crops that have
been harvested the last two seasons In
South Dakota, that state is this spring
having the heaviest immigration known
for over 10 years. The Illinois Central,
Burlington, Cedar Rapids and North
ern, and Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul roads have been taxed to their
fullest capacity for two months to
handle the immigration business
directed to this section. The people
who are coming this spring are
mainly those who came out with
the harvest excursions last fall and
bought land. They are chiefly from
Central Illinois and Eastern Iowa, and
almost all of them are w~ell-to-do. An
estimate prepared ny railroad authori-
ties, from reliable information on the
volume of this business, places the num-
Der of people who have been coming
into the state to settle this spring at
not less than $500 per week for the last
two months. and they do not expect the
number to fall off materially for another
month.

Booths Physicians Denies the Great
Actor Has Paralysis.
NEW YORK, April 21.-The announce
ment that the veteran actor, Edwin
Booth. had been stricken by paralysis
and was dying, aroused the greatest in
terest all over the city. The Players
club in Gramercy park, where Mr..
Booth makes his home, was early be-
sieged by telephone and callers and
everyone was assured that Mr.. Booths
condition was not as serious as re-
ported. DR.. st. Clair Smith, Booths
w physician, who was called in, said
positively that Booth had not
had stroke of paralysis.
The physician said that Booths illness
was merely a return of the old trouble
which he first experienced while play
ing "Othello" with Lawrence Barrett
on April 8. 1889. That was the time
Barrett made his famous address to the
audience, saying Booth would neve act
again. Booth, however, recovered in a
few days, although his general health
has been very poor for the last two
years. DR.. Smith said that Booths
trouble was a nervous weakness and
that he had no organic disease. Alpha
STA, is the physicians term.

Miller's Story.
Miller, the man who was rescued
from the crib by the life saving crew,
has recovered sufficiently to give the
story of the tragedy. He said the crib
house was so dangerous that all hands,
Is in number, went down into the air
lock. They were quite comfortable
until the house was blown away. They
knew it was gone when the air pump
stopped working. This was about 8
o'clock. When the pump stopped the
air kept growing worse until $3.50
ntalnoI xxyhap - baan.na ca h11 xl-< -
was proposed by some to leave the lock
and take chances outside. The subject
was discussed for some time and finally
all agreed to it as it was found they
Could Not Live Much Longer
where they were. Accordingly the air
lock was opened and the water allowed
to come in. Mcbride, Dwyer, Gregg,
johnson, Leikowitz and Miller sue
ceeded in getting out of the lock and to
the surface. To do this they had to
climb up through 10 feet of water. The
other nine, Miller says, could not find
the ladder and were drowned in the
lock. When he got on the crib he
wound the wire cable, which runs from
a drum toward the shore, around his
arm and was then able to hold ON until
the lifeboat arrived. He says that
Dwyer, Gregg, johnson and Leikowitz
held on about a half hour and then one
by were swept away. Mcbride held
on until within 10 minutes of the ar
rival of the boat and he too succumbed
and was washed off before the arrival
of the boat.
