Broken Promises.

The Spearfish Register man. in late
issue. relates his experience with de-
linquent subscribers. which suggests a
situation in Spearfish which We opine
does not differ materially with that of
most other towns of the Black Hills and
elsewhere. He says:
"Last week a man slipped ND to us
and said he would pay us every cent if
he lived until Saturday night. We pre-.
sumo the man died. Another said he
would pay us in day or two as sure as
we were born. Query Did the man
lie. or were we never born? Another
said he would settle as sure as Looting
We are led to the conclusion that shoot
ing is not very certain Another hoped
he would go to the devil If he did not
pay 1t in three days. Have not seen
him since; suppose he has gone, but
trust he has not hoped in vain. Quite
number said they would see us to.
morrow. These have been stricken
blind or else tomorrow has not come.
One man told us he would pay ms as
soon as he got some money. That man
would not lie, so of course he has not
had cent since"
The cases reported by the Register
are, no doubt, exceedingly provoking,
but the man who says nothing about his
account, never pays cent and is con-
tinually harping on the high price of
the paper as compared with the large
eastern weeklies, is the fellow we are
worrying most about, but our worry is
clearly wasted. as this class Of subs are
as impervious to the plea of the printer
as the rock Of Gibraltar to the feeble
breath of a passing zephyr.

About 2 o'clock last Sunday
morning Depnty-Sheriff Ed. Arbo-
CAST brought to the county Jail a
tough looking specimen Of human
ity, who has been the source OF con-
siderable trouble and annoy ance to
this and other ncighborhoods in
the county. Saturday night he
came up the Franklin road and
passed through town; and sometime
that night he applied for supper
and lodging at DR.. 0. j. Campbell's,
couple of miles below here, which
being refused him he became very
angry and threatened to burn the
house. 1t was on this threat that
he was arrested, At one place in
Crabbottom he refused to eat a
good dinner that was set out before
him because squirrel was not men
toned on the bill Of fare. He is
very annoying to his fellow-prison-
ers and the jailer's family, and when
the jalier attempts to quiet him he
invites him in the cell for fight
When a pair of handouts and a
chain were brought to his notice he
was more pleasant. A. commission
of lunacy pronounced him luna
tic and an effort is being made for
his reception in the Western State
Hospital at Stanton. 1t is thought
by some that he is the man who
has been burning barns in the Val-
ley. There is no doubt but that
he is dangerous.
Later: Mr.. Tom Slaven, who has
been an attendant at the Western
State Hospital, visited this man
and after short talk recognized
him to be an inmate of the Hosp
tai by the name Of Alexander. Il
is supposed that he ESCAPED.

Mr., Dana ON the Bible.

What books ought you to read? There
are some books that are Indispensable
a few books Almost all books have
their use, even the silly ones, and an
omnivorous reader, if he reads intelli
gently, need never feel that his time is
wasted even when he bestows it ON the
flimsiest trash that is printed, but there
are some books that are absolutely in
dispensable to the kind of education
that we are contemplating and to the
profession that we are considering, and
of all these the most indispensable, the
most useful, is the Bible. There is no
book from which more valuable lessons
can be learned. ! am considering it now
not as religious book, but as manual
of utility, of professional preparation
and professional use for journalist
There is perhaps no book whose style is
more suggestive and more instructive,
from which you learn more directly that
sublime simplicity which never exag-
gerates, which recounts the greatest
events with solemnity, of course, but
without sentimentality of affection; !;
none which you open with such conf
dence and lay down with such rever-
ence There is no book like the Bible
When you get into controversy and
want exactly the right answer, when
you are looking for an expression, what
is there that closes dispute like verse
from the Bible? What is it that sets up
the right principle for you, which pleads
for policy, for cause, so much as the
right passage Of Holy Scripture?-F

Making.'' -

Child Language.

Does anybody know Of children who
today use language apart in the COM
munication of their thoughts, a language
that puzzles linguists, and yet is under
stood thoroughly by the youngsters?
There was a remarkable case some years
ago in Albany. Two boys of well
known family-the father was cele-
brated observation-disclosures they talked
together used invariably-that is, in the
presence of other members of the family
"a language that was not to be discov-
cred among pagan or Christian people.
The boys never gave an explanation aft
er they reached the age of Is Or 16. Up
to that age they chartered with volubil-
ity in this singular tongue. Here is an
instance that points toward the sanity
of the theory advanced by Charles God
frey Leland in "Gypsy Sorcery:" :""I be-
lieve that company of children left
entirely to themselves would form and
grow up with a language which in a
very few years would be spoken fluent
