Thanksgiving Proclamation
STATE OF SOUTH DAKOTA EXECUTIVE

STATE OF SOUTH DAKOTA EXECUTIVE
CHAMBER
In keeping with the proclamation of
the President OF the United States, /,
CHARLES III. SHELDON, Governor oil the
state OF South Dakota, do hereby APP
point Thursday, the both, day OF No
vember, 1894, a day oiThanksgiving and
prayer throughout the state.
On that day let all places of business
be closed, and let all the people repair to
their respective houses OF worship, to ex-
press in a proper manner, to the Great
Ruler OF the Universe, their Thanksgiving
for His watchful care over them.
While we have not enjoyed, for the
past year, an enviable measure OF pros
perity, w yet have reason to feel that
our universities, which have been shared
by the people OF all the states, have not
come to US unmixed with much for which
we should feel deeply thankful.
Although devastating storms and fires
have visited other portions of our coun-
try, bringing great suffering, together
with loss OF property and human life, we
have been spared these terrible Affections
and have learned that there sometimes
comes to the children of men worse
things that theinterruption ofprosperity.
The healthfulness OF our state has
passed into a proverb, and it is more and
more, each year, sought as an asylum by
the afflicted OF other states.
The faith and courage of our peop'e is
mistaken. They were never more hope
full for the future. The tramp of idle,
hungry men is not heard within our Dor
ders.
For all these things let us be truly
thankful. Let the rich remember the
poor with a division OF their bounty, so
that to their thankfulness there may be
Pdded rejoicing at being able to make
happy even for "A day.
Given under my hand and the Great
Seal of the state OF South Dakota, this
10th. day of November, 1894.
by the Governor: CHARLES III. SHELDON.
THOMAS THoRsEN,
Secretary of State.

ScOrpions.

The natives of Lucca, in Italy, assert
that the scorpion will destroy itself if
exposed to a sudden light, and a writer
in Nature said that his informant and
her friends, while residing during the
summer months at the baths of Lucca,
were much annoyed by the intrusion of
small black scorpions into she house
and their being secreted among the bed
clothes, in shoes and in other articles of
dress; that they o became adopts in
catching the scorpions and disposing of
them in the manner suggested. This
consisted in confirming the animal under
an inverted drinking glass or tumbler
below which q card was inserted when
the capture was made and then waiting
till dark, suddenly bringing the light OF
a candle near to the glass in which the
animal was confined. No sooner was
this done than the scorpion invariably
showed signs of great excitement, run
ming round and round the interior of
the tumbler with reckless velocity for a
number of times.

part of its body, over its back, brought

in a few seconds became quite motion

servation was repeated very frequentlY

plan of getting rid of the pests, and the
young people were in the habit of han
ding them with impunity Immediately
after they were so killed and of preserv-
ing many of them as e%uriosities. II is
known that scorpions kill themselves
when surrounded by q ring of fire.
