"H0W far Is 1t to Lookout from here?"
asked q Maine man of a South
Carolina native. Its that way, the
Lookout is" was the reply, "and l reckon
it's bout two child's cries and a horn
blow afore ye git thar" The distance
was n mile and a half, Yankee measure
ment.
"Woodlight" won third money in the
free-for-all trotting race at Gam Valley
the fourth, and Robert" entered by Geo.
Savage won first money. Horny" enter
ed by Savage in the green trotting race

The big and terrible strike Of the Pull
man men. the A. r. U. and kindred labor
associations, a full account OF which
appears on the inside pages Of the
GRAPHIC, has injured the public more
than the strikers or their opponents.
The people will uphold the stand taken
by President Cleveland.
T. T.. Strikes brother-in-law, Chas.
jerks. left Kimball Tuesday with the stall
lion advertised here this spring by Strike
& Co. He went without consulting Mr..
Strike, who claims an interest in the
horse and proposes to make Mr.. jerks
square up or return the horse. Result
of a partnership deal.
These exceedingly hot and dry days
demand an abundance of water for the
gardens. trees, lawns and stock. In
stead we have a scarcity. This should
not be so when oceans of water flows
under us ready to be tapped. There is no
reason why water should not be forth
, coming to supply every want. Give us
an 8 or 10 inch %"spouter." Give us more
water.
White Lake Waye:-In the base ball
match between Kimbali and Mitchell
? played Mt Plankinton last Friday, the
Mitchellites proved rather too much for
! the Kimball boys. Some good playing
was done on both sides but the Kimball.
$ ties were handicapped by their pitcher
being a little off" -Four straight
f whitewashes in the last half Of the game
probably convinced the Mitchell men
that the Brule county lads are not all
"hoboes." We understand they will try
if again.
