The Best Thing Out.

The Dain Junior Hay Stackers
and Power Lift Push Rakes are the
greatest labor-saving haying tools
ever invented. They will take the
hay direct from the mower and
build it in a rick to any height de-
sired. These stackers are the only
ones that deliver the hay into the
middle of the stack from bottom to
top. They are very simple in con-
struction and are a third lighter in
draft than any other stacker made.
The Dain Sweep Rake is the only
rake ever made that will positively
carry the teeth entirely off the
ground when heavily loaded, while
they work so easily that any boy
who can drive a horse a handle
them with ease. They are the best.
Don be persuaded into buying any
other, which dealers may recon-
mend as being 'just as good
Remember, these machines are
handled exclusively by the Tom

for you, but We are the manufacture

cy for Pennington county and trade

light from Sugar.

A phenomenon, the cause of which
has not yet been satisfactorily ex-
planned, was described at the last
meeting of the British association.
Disks of loaf sugar were mounted on
a lathe and rapidly rotated while a
hammer played lightly against them.
An almost continuous radiation OF
light was thus produced from the SUI
gar. 1t was shown that the light did
o arise from heating of the sugar,
and it is believed to be caused by
some change taking place in the SUI
gar crystals. The act of capitalization
is known to be sometimes accompanied
by flashes Of light. The r. actical bear
ing of these experiments is on the
question of the possibility of obtaining
artificial light by methods as yet I'M
tried.

Journalistic Statesman Stops Over.

The editor of the Spearfish Mail
slops over, steps on his W neck
and falls down completely all be-
cause THE UNION called him down
for SONS remarks printed deroga-
tory to the state school of mines in
this city. The Mail man indig
nantly denies several things that
he has never been charged with
and otherwise makes an ass OF him
self. He states that he had no
hand in the school Of mines re-
moval bill introduced at Pierre last
winter. Bless your little pinched-
up soul, Mr.. Mail, no one said you
did. And then he threw a few
posies at himself and takes the
credit for having saved the gen
eral appropriation for the school.
Perhaps, but the general approP-
ration is not the one to which
The Union referred. 1t was not
the one that got s%idetracked. The
UNION refers to the appropriation
for the addition of a commercial
educational department to the
school OF mines. The two should
not be confused. Their treatment
was entirely different.
This whole dressing down and
raknig upof unpleasant legislative
recollections for the Mail man has
been brought about by his sarcas-
tic remark to the effect that "the
school Of mines might be p~rohtably
used for an insane asylum" The
Union denied it last week, but is
inclined to apologize for its some
what hasty denial and request that
the FIRST patient for the institution
be the Lawrence county states
man and journalist. If a cure can
be effected in his case The UNION
will consent to the change from a
mining school to an insane asy-
lum. His would be a test case.

h great Napoleon, done in ever
green, is the unique statue that stands
in the garden of M. d'Aguilleres, in the
suburbs of Paris. The statue is a per-
feet model of the Little Corporal in
characteristic attitude, wearing a cock
ed hat and sword and snuffbox in hand.
n features are very lifelike. The
greatest care IS necessary in order to
preserve the likeness, and every day
the artist-gardener spends considerable
time in chipping off dead leaves and
cutting away an occasional branch.
The signature Of Napoleon is reproduce
ed at the foot Of the statue in coleus
plants.

A Fitting Eulogy.

Upon our platform we will place a
man who is a pl.tfoam within himself
whose name / am happy to state is

America and loved by every patriot

When he sits in the chair at Wash

In time of peace he is a civilian; in

The Mote and the Beam.

The negroes who are butche, ed and
tortured do not represent their race
any more than the whites who butcher
and torture them represent their own.
They are, both of them, insignificant
quantities, and the country is making
far too much of them in these contro-
versies. When we see the sweatshops
abolished in our great northern cities,
the White Caps exterminated in the
middle western states, the wife heaters
and torturers of helpless children
everywhere punished as they deserve,
IL will be time to concentrate our altru-
istic solicitude on the SOUTH Wash
ington Post.

handing general of the army of the
United States, has been deprived of
every vestage of authority. He has
been forbidden to issue any order di-
recting the movement of a staff officer
unless personally signed by Alger.
Staff officers have been told to report
directly to Alger and not to Miles.
Now the secretary is dlssipating the
generals personal staff to the four
quarters of the continent and the satire
of it all lies in the fact that every
order is signed with Miles name
