South Dakota Editor Advises His Enc

Mitchell. s. d. April |, Since the
sacking and burning of the Mitchell
Mail office the editorial atmosphere in
Dakota has had a rise in temperature
that has made il exceedingly warm in
that section and local storms are hour
~ predicted.
The cause of this atmospheric dis

have for the last three weeks, it may
become necessary for the state author

with the permission of the editor, and
another attack was made on the form

A CHICKEN FOR ONE.

A Pigmy for Epicures Now Served by
 Paris Restaurateurs.
 It is generally conceded that small bird makes a very dainty meal for one person, and it must have been source of regret to many that it was seldom possible to obtain a chicken just large enough for one man with a moderate appetite. The difficulty has now been removed, in Paris at least, says the New York Journal
 Many Paris hotels and restaurants are, now introducing as novelty into their menus what might be described as 'one man, one chicken" Everyone who understands anything of the appe- tite of man understands that he likes best to tackle a bird single-handed. With the ordinary fowl this was, of course, impossible, so the ingenious chef proceeded to develop, or rather curtail, the spring chicken, and now a three-months-old bird is served to each guest, just as though it were a quail or a plover. That there is any stability in the body of so young and tender chicken can hardly be admit ted; but the novelty has been greatly appreciated, especially by Americans in Paris, and there is already demand, and great one, for fedgling barn. doors.

APPLICATION OF A FABLE. A Sheep's Skin Hides the Form of a Hu-
 man Wolf,

The story of the ass who clothed him. self in lions skin in order to pass himself off as the king of beasts is well known, but the tale of the thief who got inside a sheep's skin to be better able to carry on his nefarious trade has yet to be told, says the London Telegraph. Early one morning two policemen, who were on duty at the slaughter houses of Paris, were aston ished to see a sheep endeavoring to effect an entrance into the inclosure where creatures of it's kind were dou- bled when mans hand protruded from beneath the stolen fleece. Their curi- osity became intensified and they care fully followed the sham animal, who stopped at the pen which inclosed the real article, and with great coolness chose the two largest and fattest of the flock.
 Still observed by the watchful guard ians of the law, this plagiarist of an
