WHO ARE THEY.

In glancing over the columns of the
Chicago Herald last Sunday our at
tention was called to an appeal for aid
for South Dakota sufferers. We clip
the following section from the circular
issued as printed in the Herald:
I'm order to reach the sufferers Of South Da-
kota we recommend correspondence with ira Is.
Dye OF Sioux talls, G. VI. Peek OF Mitchell and
Manli,ls ReguS Of NermilliOn who are well az
credited agents for the regions respectively ioca-
ted. 1t Is our conviction that there has never
come to our notice All instance Of widespread
and Terrible suffering more worthy Of sympathy
and immediate action than the one here pre-
sented."
What THE COURIER would like to
know is this: What position in life do
Messrs. Dye, Peck and Regus hold?
II they live in towns printed opposite
their names they are in country
where poverty is unknown and where
the people are as far from starvation
as any place on earth. In Clay coun-
ty where Mr.. Regus, if there is such a
person, holds forth there is not Il
healthier or more prosperous commu-
nifty in America. 1t is true that the
crop.last year was short in comparison
to the prodiguous one raised here and
there last year, get it was by no means
a failure. There are dozens of farm
ers, here and there, who are easily
worth $4,000 a piece. Mr.. Regus may
be all a myth and he may be a big
hearted gentleman for ali we know,
but how on earth he can have the au-
dacity to appeal for aid for sufferers
in his locality is beyond the reach of
human understanding. SO far rs Dye
| OF Sioux Falls is concerned he is by
no means a representative man, and

bObtail OF the secondhand stores Of

The first issue of the Clay County
Freeman under the management of
eX-Superintendent Kahl reached our
office last week. There is probably
no newspaper in the state which has
had more varied changes in manage
ment than the Freeman. Every black
smith. printer, tinuer and haberdasher
from Dan to Bersheba has whacked
out a niche in its history and now the
ex-superintendent will shoulder the
carcas and attempt to "rejuvenate"
what is generally regarded as a dead
duck. 1t is to be Il republican paper
too ii we do not mistake the drift of
the ex-educator's s%alutatory. In our
opinion Vermillion has about as much
use for two republican newspapers as
the average dog has for two tails. No
country town in South Dakota can
support three newspapers and the bus
mess men are not warranted in so
doing. Two are a s%ufficiency and in
the town of Vermillion Brer Wiley
fills the bill so far Is the republicans
are concerned, SO acceptably that we
can not but believe that Kahl will
wish he had hold Of a pillow handle in
stead of the editorial pen, in what will
surely prove to be an unremunerative

The revolt last week in Hawaii was
was, indeed, a tragic affair. BY a
cablegram, ut Il cost OF 81 Il word,
sent by vessel to Samoa and from
there to Australia and then by way of
India to Liverpool and onto America,
it is stated that there were eight men
on one side and thirteen on the other.
A very bloody contest took place i'm
which one man was shot in the bowels
and another lost bis toe nails. The re-
bellion is not yet ended, and if the
ravages of war continues at the same
gait we have fears that someone will
be hurled into eternity.

The HANDLING OF WILD ANIMALS.
Mr.. James A. Bailey Says II is Not so
Dangerous as is Commonly Believed.


"Since the exhibition Of trained animals
has been added to the programme Of the
Barnum & Bailey show, said Mr.. James
A. Bailey recently, Il have been fri
quently asked as to the degree Of danger
attendant upon such performances. 1t is
the general belief all over the world that
a man who goes into a den of wild car
nivorous beasts takes his life in his hands,
and that each time he does so and escapes
unframed he has won by a lucky chance
Some persons believe that if the trainer
who handles the animals in their acts
were TO turn his back upon them for a
single instant they would leap upon and
devour him. Others again believe that
the lions and tigers only await an oppor-
tunity for concerted action to destroy
their keepers, while there are still others
who declare that it is only through the
power Of the human eye that the beasts
are held I'm subsection. To all Of these
opinions and beliefs, and q final answer
to all questions on the subject / wish to
state here and now that there is no dan

some further explanation and proof.
1T is fact that many men have been
manned. and some killed, by lions and IT,

to such accidents and deaths were Of

II viii be noticed that the is missing
from both rows. IT you bet on the top
row and any number IN the lower cow

the lower row and a top-row number
is thrown you lose. II there are bets

rows lose. The percentage Is enormous.
There are II chances In the top row

betting on either row it gives the house
the chances in the other row and the

happened; In wandering about having a
good time Nat dropped into much

one who ever knew Nat is aware that he
is fend against any kind of gambling.
In fact when IL is announced that he
is coming to town IL has been known
that faro games have been cooked up
for him with no limit, aud IL is very
seldom that Nat gets away without
dropping a big slice of his weeks re-
ceipts
There is no faro bank open in this
city. SO he took a whirl at the dice Nat
does not know he is alive about dice.
but he just took a chance. and Il cost
him something to find out what there
was in the game. Craps. like anything
else, has its percentage in favor of the
house In some plays the percentage Is
much larger than i'm others. This is
true in what is known as the upper and

knows anything about craps VIII tell
you that the field is stronger than tho
