Tarantula Too Cold to Bite,

Receiver Graybill of the United States
and otnce at Chamberlain ordered some
chicken feed. a clerk, in getting to the
feed, removed some rubbish which had
accumulated from the unpacking Of BAN
ana'. When the hired girl went to the
chicken feed to get some she discovered
what she believed to be an enormous
spider. Taking a tin pan she poked the
supposed spider into it, covered it with
her apron and carried it to her mistress,
who, upon the pan being uncovered, dis
covered that the spider was a ~tarantula.
Alter some delay the insect was impris-
oned in a glass. That no one was bitten
can be explained only by the supposition
that the tarantula was benumbed by the
cold weather which prevailed at The Tine.

CONCERNING THE CROPS
Government Reports of Their Con.
dition in Many States.

The reports as to the condition or tue
crops throughout the country and the gen
eral effect Of the weather on the growth,
cultivation and harvest Of sam" as made
by the directors Of the several climate and
crop sections, show that the past week
has been very favorable for farm work.
especially threshiny. which has been
greatly retarded by the rains Of previous
weeks. Flowing for fall seeding has prog
ressed tavorably. although portions of
the middle Atlantic States. Kansas and
Oklahoma need general rains to put the
soil III condition. Some winter wheat has
been sown in Ohio. Michigan and Mis-
souri,, and also in New England and the
middle Atlantic States, hut in the last
named section but little seeding has yet
been done, owing to dry conditions Of
soil. Cotton picking has made rapid prog
ress, and all reports indicate that the crop
Of rhis year will be secured at an unusu-
ally early date. In Arkansas the whole
crop will be gathered by Oct. l.. and in
Texas the greater part will be picked by
that date, while in the eastern portion
Of the cotton belt picking viii be com
pleted much earlier. in Georgia by Sept.
Is. and some have already completed pick
ing in Mississippi. As compared with
the previous week the general condition of
cotton remains unchanged, the outlook
for top crop being very poor. Much corn
has been cut and the late crop is maturing
rapidly, although somewhat retarded by
cool weather in Ohio, Iowa and Missouri.
While the bulk Of the crop will soon be
safe from frost its quality would be better
if no frost occurred within three or four
weeks. In Tennessee. Indiana and Penn
sylvania the bulk of the tobacco has been
housed and cutting is progressing rapidly
in Ohio. Kentucky, Virginia, Maryland
and New York. Drought conditions in
Southern New Jersey. Western Tennessee
and in portions Of Maryland, North Caro-
lima, Alabama and Louisiana still con-
tinue. Light frosts occurred in New En-
gland, New York, generally in the upper
lake region and in North Dakota and Ne
braska, causing but little damage.

On the YanktOn Reservation.

The Yankton Reservation comprises
A.e east half OF Charles Mix County, and
was opened for settlement May 81, 1895,
too late for anything to be grown that
year. All things considered, its develop
ment has been marvellous. A careful esti-
mate has been made OF the produce grown
this season. III is more than will be neces-
sary to support the settlers, and nearly
every quarter section in the eastern part
OF the reservation is occupied. Wheat,
oats and barley on last seasons breaking,
and corn, flax and potatoes on last
springs breaking, have given a splendid
yield. Wheat, so far as threshed, aver
ages q bushels to the acre, barley 35 to
IS, oats 80. There has beer about ~
inches Of rainfall since March Is.

TRAGEDY AT HOT SPRINGS.
An Army Ofhcer Loses His Life in
the Plunge Bath.

the Plunge Bath.
A sad accident occurred at Hot Springs
which has cast a gloom Over the guests
who are stopping at the Evans House.
The grand ball to the officers and ladies
of the Ninth cavalry, U. S. A., was to
have been given Wednesday night. At
O'Clock a special train bearing officials
and ladies Of Forts Robinson, Niobrara
and Meade, arrived in the city. The
entire party, accompanied by many other
guests of the house, repaired to the Min
nekahata plunge bath. About fifty ladies'
and gentlemen started into the water.
Among the number was First Lieut.. J. w.
Benton, quartermaster of the Ninth cav
airy, stationed at Fort Robinson. In a
few minutes his wife missed him, and
soon he was found on the bottom and
pulled out dead by friends. The ply
slcians were of the opinion that death re-
suited from heart disease.
The military ball was declared off and
tie gay decorations were removed from
the lobby and dining room. The dead
soldier was a graduate Of the West Point
class Of 'S5 and a son of Gen. Benton, de.
cea led, OF the ordnance corps.

Mr.. Ellis from near Broadland left
South Dakota last fall and moved to Ar
kansas. fe and his family were sick
all winter. two of the children died and
were buried there. Mr. Ellis and the re-
mainder of his family arrived in South
Dakota a few days ago with thei intention
Of staying here. A MIR. Chamberlain Of
Alpena, some W years ago moved to In

leave Indiana on account of sickness. So
It is with nearly every one that leaves
