Advocating = snake Bounty.

Residents OF Aurora county are agitat-
ing the question of having the state or
county offer a bounty for the killing OF
rattlesnakes. which this year are unusu-
ally numerous in some parts OF South Da-
kota. In some parts of the bad lands
there are said to be regular dens contain
ing thousands OF rattlesnakes. This sum-
mer. however. they have been quite nu-
merous in some sections east of the river.
especially in Aurora county and the de-
mand that a bounty be placed upon them
Is the result. Those ~agitating this unique
bounty argue that a bounty Is paid for
wolves. which do nothing worse than kill
cattle and horses. and for ~gophers while
rattlesnakes. which destroy human life,
are permitted to multiply without moles-
tation.

Narrow Escape.

On Monday morning, about 1918
o'clock, as train of cars was nearing
the crossing at the corner of Ann and
Broadway streets, Capt. Sam San
ders, the veteran steamboat Captain,
started across the track. The Cap
tain being a little hard of hearing,
owing to his advanced age, did not
hear the engine bell or see the train.
The engineer, seeing the Captains
peril, reversed his engine and APP
piled the breaks. The engine. how
ever, struck him on the arm and
showed him of the track, bruising
the arm and side. Luckily no
further damage was done and the
Captains escape was almost mirac u

To Attend the g. A. r. Reunion.

A large number of our old soldier
friends, both white and colored, went
over to Cincinnati this week to at
tend the National Grand Encamp-

also a number of old COnfederates
who accepted the invitation to the
reunion.
There was a tremendous crowd
present, and everyone who went
seemed to have a good time and to
be glad they were present.
The ranks of the grizzled veterans
are fast thinning out and the whitened
hair and bent forms of those left
tells the sad tale of the inroads Of

forms.

 What He Saw.

MT. Chauncey Clark returned on Sunday morning from an eastern trip.
 In the course of his journey MT. Clark submitted to a newspaper interview, in
 which he spoke highly of prevailing conditions in Arizona and described the drouth of southern California. What MT. Clark said of California is
 precisely what every one says who has
 travelled through it during thc last six
 months, and what he bankers and bus mess men of the coast surrcWfully ad- init to be true. A copy of the eastern paper containing Mr. Clark's interview reached the Los Angeles Times and was made the subject of a long edi- torial under the head of A Slander on Southern California" The Times af- ter a jocose allusion tc MT. Clark, con- cedes that it has been pretty dry there for long time, comedies that nay and grain crops have been short, but falls back on the fruit industry and predicts an extraordinary crop of oranges, which is irrelevant. The oranges have net been realized upon. MT Clark was not talking about oranges, but the miserable agricultural conditions of that state.

 different from ordinary sessions in
 that there were somewhere near sev-

 names proposed for membership. It
 was also the evening on which officers must be elected and a spirited, though good natured contest resulted After the smoke of battle had cleared away it was found that the following msm- bers were crowned with victory: F. A. Ross, chief templar; Miss Amy Coats, vice templar; O. o. Parret, sec retary; Charles Burroughs, financial secretary; A: P. Walbridge, treasurer, and Max Viault, marshal.

 Forest B. Payne, returned Rough Rider" was in his accustomed place in the lodge room last night, and received a warm and hearty welcome from his cid associates.
 Th8 programme of the evening was furnished by Company A under the ef- f1cient captain, Miss Viault, and in cluded many meritorious and amusing numbers. After a vocal trio by Misses Heilman and Viault and Dr. Thomas, Rough Rider" Payne was called for and gave an account of his army ex- perience while one of ''Teddy's Ter rors.' He was ono of the unfortunate ones left behind f.t Tampa to curry the horses, and his most exciting experi- ence was a kick from q bronco which broke the crystal of his watch. He gave it as his opinion that much Of the mortalit .,ampqg the volunteers was the result of careleSsness on the part of the men, and their neglect to take proper care of themselves, and net to a lack of medical supplies or attention. The troop that remained in Tampa lost four men from disease, which was as many as the troops lost in Cuba by both disease and bullets.
 Following MT. Payne canla original farces, shadow pantomimes and dia- logues. Addresses were delivered by Messrs Mumma, Welcome, Thomas, and Jameson Colwell MT. Burroughs performed cn a n1w styled zither, and MT. Colwen gave a very pleasing har- monica solo with piano accompani- ment, played by himself.
 There were readings, recitations, or iginaI essays and poems galore, color3d sketches, character songs and choruses ill midnight.

THE CAPITOL BUILDING.
The Commission Will Receive PlanS
 and Specifications Today.

The capitol site commission will meet in this city today to receive plans and specifications for the capitol build ings. This same action was taken by the former commission. About twenty plans were submitted, but before the commission had made a choice there was a change in the territorial admin istration, followed by a change in the personnel of the commission. Gov ernor Murphy also did net believe the commission was authorized at that time to make a selection. Though the capitol building bonds had been sold, the money for them had not yet been received into the territorial treasury, a conliticn imposed by the act befcle any expense could be undertaken in the matter of the building. Even tha for the plans was there fore held to be illegal.
 Accordingly the plans were readver- tised for and November 1 was the date fixed fer receiving them. The money derived from the sale of the bonds was rceived nearly two months ago, sOl that after the adoption of plans there need be no other delay in the actual work of construction than tls necessary advertisement for contract ors.
 Among these who will present plans is Architect Gordon Of San Antonio, Tex, architect of the Texas building at the worlds fair. MT. Gordon ar rived in the city yesterday morning.
