Numerous empty houses have been
purchased this year in Miller and
moved, to be used for houses, barns,
etc. Many OF these early structures
were poorly built, stuck in out of the
way locations, ETC., so that they be-
came almost worthless. The pur-
ehasers got some cheap lumber and
the town gets rid of some eye-sores.
Ii Miller eve requires more buildings
in the future, as it probably will, it
will be built up more compactly,
upon streets, sidewalks and water
mains. A good location for any
building is OF more value than many
persons suppose, until they offer to
sell.

After twenty years OF imprison-
ment upon a life sentence for the
Mortified murders, the Younger
brothers are trying to secure q par
don in Minnesota. The effort is be-
ing met by very strong opposition
from several quarters. While we
should use as much charity as posi-
bic for erring humanity, yet there is
no reason to make heroes out OF
these men who deliberately planned
to rob and murder. The world
does not need them, and they saw fit
to burn their W candle at both
ends in a life of danger and excite
meuts

A singular statement comes from
New York to the daily dispatches to
the effect that one Frank Burton
has just completed a trip around the
world, starting without a cent OF
money. He left New York two years
ago or a wager of $4,000 that he
could make such a trip, and the re-
port says he has won. Ii it is true,
his experience would be valuable ad-
dition to current history.

The numerous bicycle riders, ball
players, footracers etc., OF this local
ity could get up q very successful
field day in Miller, if they would take
hold of the matter and rustic IL little.
Other towns are having these affairs,
and are very much pleased at the re-
suit. Two or three lively young fel-
lows could take the matter in hand,
interest every one, raise funds for ey-
penses and draw a big crowd any
Saturday. 1t pays a town or an in
dividual to keep rustling all the time
Let us have a field day.

Trim TO Fl. Thompson.

A<t'o' oStto nv
ties started for a trip to Fl. Thomp-
son, tne Indian agency located up
on the, Missouri river some fifty miles
south west of Miller: Mr.. and Mrs.
+. e. Saltmarsh, Mr.. and Mrs. W. Fl.
Smith, Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Beasom,
Mr.. and Mrs. j. A. Br1shfield. The
purpose OF the trip was to see TT.
Thompson, fish and camp out. The
The outfit comprised two buggies,
and a covered wagon, carrying two
tents, gasoline stove, bedding and
all sorts of provisions.
The party left Miller Tuesday
morning, taking dinner on the G. w.
Collins place in Glendale, thence to,
Elm creek where the first nights
camp was made. Between thoughts
OF soft beds at home and rattlesnakes
in that locality the amount of sleep
harvested was not over 20 bushels
to the acre.
Wednesday mornings drive took
the party I've a desolate waste
where a couple of hawks were the
only things that contested with a
lone coyote For possession OF a wide
stretch OF reservation. Before noon
the big muddy Missouri river was
sighted, and we were soon ca.mped in
the timber along it's bank neal FIT,
Thompson.
The fort" consists of a collection
OF buildings, nicely painted and kept
up by the government, for the pur-
pose of issuing rations to, and keep
ing a record of the Indians upon that
reservation. An artesian well is
spoutting there into a large reser-
yoir, the water being used for irri-
eating crops. This reservoir also
affords a fine bathing place, which is
greatly enjoyed by the white people,
and some OF the younger Indians.
The Superintendent in charge was
MI. Dunlap, an old government EN-
ployee who has retained his place for
several years through merit. The
Miller party was placed under obi
cations to Mr.. Dunlap and his estim-
able wife for many courtesies shown
us. In fact all of the residents
of this little government city
were very agreeable and pleasant
people to meet.
Camping along the river in the
groves a very nice, but tales of
successful fishing were but a delusion
and a snare. There were apparently
very few fish to be caught in the .riy-
er, especially with hook and line.
Yes, the mosquito was there, to add
his buzz to the rest OF natures mus
ic, but campers soon become so that
they cal roll up In a blanket and
sleep anywhere.
A drive up the river and visit to
the upper Brule agency followed
Here was the best scenery of the trip.
A rough rolling country, with the big
turbulent stream winding its way
here and there, and its banks lined
will beautiful groves of cottonwoods,
willow, ash, elm trees. We drove
some IA or 15 miles up the river to
what is called the big bend, thence
across country to the Catholic Mis-
sion in Hyde county, where under the
Miss Drexel fund, some so Indian
children are schooled, by way OF
Highmore to Miller reaching home
Saturday night. The trip and weeks
outing was greatly enjoyed by all of
the party, each one wondering why
they had lived here so many
years without having made this trip |
before.

San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1897-06-19

There has been for some time an at
tempt made in New York City to take
down the front of the old Tombs pris-
on, which is one of the finest specimens
of Egyptian architecture in the country
but there is not enough money in sight
to carry out the idea. This is well, for
that old prison is only suggestive Of
all that is worst and most Infamous
in the life of the city and nothing
would be gained to humanity thereby.
No one will grieve that the old house
of criminal punishment is to be torn
down and no memorial kept of it. This
is wisest and everyway best.

The criticism of the Jubilee pro-
cession and decorations has already
begun. 1t is said that total absence
of real artistic work in the professional
columns will strike the American as a
fatal defect. Then there is the panicky
feeling that the safety of the crowds
is not sufficiently assured, also that
danger to the life of her majesty is
feared by assassination. If John had
not been necessarily stupid he
would have hired some good Yankee
to superintend operations.

San Antonio is in the middle of the
river. Right in the swim and with a
good cork suit on to prevent accidents.
Those National Plumbers were a little
astonished to see the vim with which
San Antonio's representative took
hold Of matters, and his practical sug-
gestions were found to have the bark
on and good tap root. They sized up
the situation right when they conclud-
ed to hold their next session down
here. They will wonder to see the
thermometer higher than the record
and the days pleasanter than the law
allows and the night so cool that dou-
BILE wool blankets will be required. San
Antonio will lose nothing by being ad-
vertised and this meeting of the Ma
tional Plumbers here for their next
session is right in the path of good
advertising.

Senator Pettigrew is going to Japan
during the summer vacation of Con-
gress to study the Japs. If Congress
should remain in session all summer
and Pettigrew remain at home he
would learn deal more in his sena-
torial seat than in travel. What he
does not know about the true spirit
and genius and end Of American in
situations and ideas would fill a big
book. He is too much of a foreigner
now in his ideas, for the good of his
constituents, and it would be better
for him to remain at home and get in
oculated with the virus of a decent
Americanism. Far better. Perhaps
he may catch 1t abroad. He would
not be the first one who left his coun-
try for that countrys good and re-
turning learned to love and appreciate
what he had before lightly esteemed.
