DAMAGE IN SOUTH DAKOTA.

Prairie Fires Cause Considerable
Destruction of Property.
Sioux City, Iowa, May 3.-Specials
from South Dakota to the Journal
show prairie fires have done much
damage in that state. Nearly one
third Of Brule county has been burned
over, many buildings lost and much
cradle damage has been done and the
town itself had a close call from de-
.struction. 1t is feared much damage
has been done near Huron. Near
White Lake, S. D..,2,O0O sheep were
burned on the ranch of NJ. w. Russell.

NdIuueI, 1OduO, May - uluucI,
during the past twenty-four hours, has
been the scene Of the worst riots since
the deadly labor war of 1892. One
man is dead, another is thought to be
mortally wounded and property valued
at S25O,OOO has been destroyed by
giant powder and fire. The damage
vas done by union miners and sympa-
thizers of Canyon Creek. about twenty
miles from here. Saturday morning q
mob of from 500 to 1000 men, all of
them armed and many of them
masked. seized a train at Burke. the
head of Canyon creek. The visitors
brought with them 800 pounds of giant
powder. After a party Of two hours
40 masked men from Burke and
Wardner. armed with Winchester
rifles. started with yells for the Bunk
e. Hill and Sullivan mills and other
buildings a third of a mile away.
They sent pickets ahead and n of
them fired a shot as a signal that the
mill was abandoned. This was mis-
understood by the main body Of the
mob, who imagined that non-union
miners in the hills had opened fire on
them and they began to fire upon their
own pickets. About 1000 shots were
thus exchanged between the rioters
and their pickets. and Jack Smith, n
of the pickets, formerly of British
Columbia, and a noted figure in drill
contests, was shot dead.
The Fatla Error
was discovered after a few seconds
firing and Smiths body brought down
from the hillside. By this time the
strikers had taken possession of the
Bunker Hill and Sullivan mill. which
they found deserted, the manager
having directed the employees not to
risk their lives by battling with. the
mob. Powder was called for and sixty
ffty-pound boxes were carried from
the depot to the mill. The heaviest
charge was placed under the brick Of
flee building. Other charges were
placed around the mill. Then the
boarding house, a frame structure, was
burned. Fuses leading to the charges
were lighted and. the strikers, carrying
the dead body Of the picket, retired to
a safe distance. At 2:36 p. IN. the first
blast went off. 1t shook the ground
for miles, and buildings in Wardner,
two miles away, trembled. At inter-
walls of about sixty seconds four 9th
er charges went eff. the fifth being the
largest. and completely demolished the
mill. The loss to the Bunker HiH and
Sullivan company is estimated from
s25O,OOO to 100000. In a few minutes
the strikers went back to the station,
the whistle was blown for stragglers,
the mob climbed aboard and at 8
o'clock. just three hours after It's ar
rival. the train started for Canyon
Greek.
May Be Sent to Wardner.
St. Paul, May 2.-Thefe was a call
to arms at Fort Smelling yesterday
and it is possible that before another
day has passed the regular soldiers
left behind to garrison that post will
be flying over ihe Western prairies on
their way to quell the riot at Ward
ner, Idaho, in the Couer d'Alene min
ing district. Orders were received at
Fort Smelling yesterday to hold the
men there in readiness for departure
at any moment. The orders were
obeyed and last night the men slept
on their arms.

FLOUR COMBINE WORRIED.

Much disappointment Felt Because
the Minneapolis Mills Stay Out.
New York. May "a meeting was
held by representatives of many Of
the interests identified with the Unit
ed States Flour Milling company,
which was recently organized under
the New Jersey laws. Some lisap-
pointment has been expressed at the
refusal Of the Washburn-C Crosby and
P~illsbury- Washburn mills to join the
combination. 1t is believed that at
to-day's meeting plans for bringing
these companies into the combine
discussed, but with that results
could not be learned.

that there is no need for plowing
the pea stubble to SOW the clover
seed, as a mere shallow disking Of
the stubble will be better
than blowing it, the stubble pro-
tecting the young clover from the
sun. Your proposed rotation is
good in some respects; but when
you come to the corn, that is the
place where the manure raised on
the farm. from the feeding of the
cow peas and cern fodder should go
bro oadcast and after the corn crop
of winter oats should be sown, to be
followed by COW peas for forage and
then to cotton again. Do not SOW
patches of clover or peas, but SOW
the peas iu the whole of every corn
crop your grow, and on all the land
after oats have been harvested that
is to 60 into cotton the next year.
And on this last crop of peas, that
is to be turned into forage, is the
only place where we would use the
mineral fertilizers in the form OF
potash and acid phosphate. Then
with cotton seed on the land plant
ed in cotton you will need no pur-
chased fertilizers to grow the cot
ton. If you will follow up this
rotation, and never allow fold to
lie all winter without something
green on it, you will find that your
land will be increasing in fertility,
and your crops, of course, increas-
ing and being grown at less ex-
pense. Cow peas will never fail
you-red clover will, very frequent
ly and commonly. .s.

One learns taciturnity best among
those who have none, and oquacity
among the taciturn.
Those who are surly and imperious
to their interiors are generally hum
BILE, tiattering and cringing to their
superiors.
Where duty is plain delay is both
foolish and hazardous; when it is not
delay may be both wisdom and safety.
Unless a Christians walk CORE
spends with his talk the less he has to
say the better.
Fear-Not, plus Fret-Not, equals
Fail-Not.
In spite of the destinations with
which it often seems to be invested,
sin is always an indescribably vile and
loathesome thing.
He who does his best, however little,
is always to be distinguished from him
who does nothing.
1t is only by labor that thought can
be made healthy; and it is only by
thought that labor can be made hapoy.
Take one step with the devil and
you are in for long walk.
Care is the stumbling-block in the
pathway Of happiness.
Don't cover your neglected duties
with the cloak of excuse.
