Terribly Burned.

A sad and probably fatal accident
occurred a few miles northeast OF
Bryant, on Friday, when the 9-year-
old daughter of Mrs. John Shaw was
horribly burned. She was playing
near a burning straw stack, when her
clothing caught fire, and, frightened,
she ran half mile to her home with
her clothes in flame. BY this time
her right arm was perfect crisp and
and her body was in almost the same
condition.

Grand Lodge VIII Meet

Grand Master Workman Moore, OF
the A. O. U. w. for North and South
Dakota, says that the annual session
of the A. O. U. W. will be held at
jamestown on May 4. This action is
taken on account of the mandamus
proceedings begun by the Webster
IS. d. lodge, which was made return
able April is. Mr.. Moore says the
officers will not contest, as the only
object in postponing the session was
to aid the needy farmer members by
loaning them the money that would
be used at the session.

The City's Welfare .

1t has long seemed to me that the
people of BroOkings should have a
better knowledge Of our city affairs
and become more interested in our
general, as well as individual welfare.
Every citizens interests are conserved
by every point of progress our city
can attain to, and suffer with every
point our city looses.
1t is difficult to measure exactly in
dollars and cents the value to the gen.
eral public Of any single industry, any
public requirement, whether of util-
ity or ornament, that every one, pri-
vate and public, enter into the con-
struction of our whole fabric and
helps to give us our character, our
reputation, our business standing, is
self evident. How can each individ-
ual intelligently do his best without
being conversant with every other
part of our city's machinery. How
will you secure this knowledge of af-
fairs? The political air is full of
schemes for municipal reform. How
will you reform city's affairs with
cut understanding what you already
have?
Suppose that instead of crying re-
form all citizens organize or reorgan-
ize commercial club to become the
lower house of city's congress or coun-
Gil; that they meet monthly to discuss
our present laws, our conditions and
requirements, and, that should they
see any wrongs to be righted, have
ordinances and resolutions drawn up
to correct abuses or perfect our code.
Talk on the streets or in your Of
fees or homes all you please, then lay
your matured thought before the club.
Hear the pros and cons, and get your
opinions aired and weighed in the
balance by just criticism as well as
helping suggestions. Let the club
bring such results before the city
council who will be glad of such help
and who will aid you in such work.
This would become power for good
government, and knowledge of the
City's affairs would not only make you
willing to support what you have but
beget desire for further internal inn
provements.
Such an organization would also al
ways be ready to catch the birds of
industry that fly Dakotaward and pos
sibly attract some from their present
feeding places to us.
Our future commercial welfare and
financial value, both city and county.
depends on what we do ourselves.
There need be but little expense
attached to an organization of this
kind, and you would assist in making
this an administration equal to the
best.
! What will you do about it?
Respectfully Yours,
A. w. HYDE, Mayor.

TALKING DAKOTA.
The Agricultural College and Rrookings
Being Advertised in England.

Being Advertised in England
1t will be remem bered that in Sep
tember, 1893, BrookingS received
visit from Count j. Rostovtzof of the
imperial court, st. Petersburg, Rus
sia, and Fl. w. Pearson, of Liverpool,
England, both gentlemen represent
ing their respective countries ia the
Agricultural department of the
Worlds Fair. Mr.. Pearson, while
making tour of our state secured
large number Of views. and is now Civ
ing to English audiences lectures on
South Dakota.
Mr.. Pearson h as been in correspond
ence with the governors Office ever
since his Dakota visit, and securing
data for his lecture. The office has
been giving him pointers, and the gov
ernOr has just received a letter from
Mr.. Pearson, in which he gives few
extracts from his lecture and state
ment of the kind of people he lectured
to.
The first lecture was delivered in
Liverpool, and the following is what
he says of It: ''There were upwards of
400 artezans and shop keepers pres
ent, including fair proportion of Ia
dies. | gave pictures of a Dakota
corn field, and a rancho; also the reap
ing and threshing of grain on large
farm, in addition to views of arteSlan
wells; Pierre, Huron Redfield, Water
town, Aberdeen, Mitchell and Brook
lngs, the Agricultural college, the
state fair, and then | went into the
Indian reservation and described,
with the aid of pictures, the Indian
life and what efforts your country
were making in his behalf and for his
good. The people here have never
had the matter put in such light be-
fore, and in giving them your picture
/ on a screen / wOve around 1t many of
| the graceful acts of attention you paid
us while on our tleeting visit to South
| Dakota. ] can now hear their ringing
cheers when gave them this perora-
tion of your state. The Sioux Indian
reservation which has long stood as a
barrier between the Rocky mountains
and the east will soon be completely
spanned by railroads and give cOnnec-
tion in the right direction. The little
island empire has been isolated, but
happily that day is past, and period
of rapid growth is at hand. The state
of South Dakota offers greater vari-
ETY. of valuable resources than those
which have made Pennsylvania the
Keystone state. 1t is bank to the
capitalist; a boundless musium to the
curious: a mineralogical treasure
house to the geOlogist: curiosity shop
to the scientist; unique and pictur-
esQue to the artist; land of delight
to the pleasure seeker and sportsman;
inviting by rich rewards for their la
Dor every class, every trade, every pro-
| feSsion."
II did my best for your state before
pleased audience, and hope it may
induce many good men toward your
good and friendly South Dakota

A Rattle Over whiskers.

ST. Louis is the scene of a lively bat
tie between organized employers and
the walters in hotels and restaurants,
etc. 1t is the same old strife over whisk
ers. The employers want the men to
be clean shaver, and the employees re-
fuse to allow the hirsute adornment
which covers their faces to be removed.
The trouble has even extended to the
hackmen and coachmen, who have COM
bined with the walters and have taken
a firm stand against allowing their
whiskers to be removed.
They have been seeking to obtain the
sympathy of the labor organizations of
ST. Louis, but the members of the Bar
bers' union are against them and are
ready to cut the Objectionable whiskers
off, shave them off, chop them off-in
short, anything to remove them.
The legislature has taken hand in
the trouble, and two bills have been in
troduced, one requiring all walters in
hotels, restaurants, etc., to be clean
shaven and the other making it a mis-
demeanor for an employer to discrimi-
nate against an employee who wears a
beard. Albany Argus.

WHO is "TELEMAQUER"

The Mysterious Individual Who Staled
Count Boniface and Caught On.
Here is the first explanation of a
hitherto inexplicable circumstance of the
Gould-Castellane marriage:
Among the guests at that most adver-
tised of American marriages was a man,
newly rich, not distinguished for ele-
gance of manner, breadth of education
or for anything save an inordinate and
abnormal itch to ''get into society" and
a monumental cheek in furthering an
ambition not uncommon to people of
his antecedents.
But he was there, and all the Four
Hundred looked on and wondered, es-
pecially those that were not invited.
1t turns out now that this hearty old
buck of humble origin, small beginnings
and unbounded aspirations got his invi-
tation to the wedding through Count
Boniface de Castellane, the bridegroom.
AS everybody knows, Count Boniface
had very little money prior to his mar
riage with the American heiress
He was forced to borrow.
I1S Was suOIU vi GOlldGSIdl Obu6I
material security, but his social position
was valuable in the eyes of the man to
whom I have referred.
The latter came to the counts assist
ance and Endorsed his notes to the
amount of 5000, 900, 1 am told, and
thereafter was the counts bosom friend.
Wherever the Count Castellane was,
there was ''the little JOKER" and of
course he got an invitation to the we'd
ding, and of course he went.
You can bet that this particular eX-
ample of the newly rich never misses
trick in his social game.
And such is the complex and hetero-
geneous character of our social fabric
that, in spite of certain drawbacks, like
the insect without wings, he will get
there just the same.

charming friend of the noble Count de
Castellane, but for an appropriate cog

oine of fact. Hitherto it has been the
English girl who has been held up as
the model for the American girl to fol,
low In all departments of physical cul-
ture. Now the American girl is fast
demonstrating her physical superiority
over her red checked English cousin.
All admirers of gracious, attractive,
robust womanhood will rejoice that the
dollhouse camellias at last are in process
of being replaced by vigorous outdoor
roses. The day has gone by, let US hope
forever, when school or academy or
university education of the American
girl meant smattering of the classics
and modern languages, maltreatment
of the piano, some Delsarte foolishness
of department and the cultivation of
frills to fit them for drawing rooms, the
outcome being an artificial, languid,
faccid, pale faced creature entirely out

her place. She has as good an education
as the girl of the old times, and she has
besides this the boon of health and
strength adding to her sweet whole.

Thirteen members of the Sprudel
Fishing club of Buffalo defied the old
superstition one sultry day last August,
embarked in a yacht belonging to one
of the party and made day of it down
the river They visited some of the
pleasure resorts OH Grand island, ate
fine lunch, drank much beer and re-
turned to the city about 10 o'clock in
the evening As evidence of what they
had done they sat before a photographer
at Sour Spring Grove and had a group
picture made. The photographer was or
dered to strike off ID copies, one for each
member, and then destroy the negative

Within two months three of them have
died suddenly. The first of the Is to go
was Michael North, wholesale cigar
dealer He caught cold in the early
winter, had hemorrhage of the lungs
and died suddenly. He was 40 years old
and a man Of strong constitution About
two weeks later the Sprudels were
shocked to learn of the sudden death of
Albert Baetzhold. He went into the
street while in heated condition after
a contest in bowling alley, caught cold
and was carried off by pneum onia in
two days He was 81 years old, nearly |
feet high, weighed $50 pounds and |
had the red cheeks of girl. The third |
to die was the man of all the members
of the club whom an insurance company
would pick out as the best risk He was
Herman II. Hamper, an amateur ath-
lete, man who never dissipated, feet
tall, splendidly proportioned and 80
years old. Pneumonia killed him in two
days.
The rest of the Is began to feel IN
comfortable. One day, while looking at
the picture taken at Sour Spring Grove,
it struck John Schwabl as remarkable
fact that the three men who had died
stood in the front row in the picture.
He communicated his discovery to the
others. When the picture was taken, the
men stood four in row, with the thir-
teenth man in the rear. Buffalo Dis
