ly unhealthy and that the men have
good care when they are sick. We ar
rived here in August when it was very
hot and had considerable sickness Of a
light nature caused generally by the
inattention of the men to the ordinary
rules of health. We had boiled water
prepared for them and issued orders
that they must drink none unboiled.
They would drink the boiled water IL
it was convenient, il not they would
drink from the street hydrants. /
finally had one Of my men courtmar-
tialed for it and after that they were
more careful. They would drink all
kinds Of drinks, eat all kinds of fruits
although warned that both were dam
gSrous. Would chase around all day
ia the hot sun If allowed liberty from
camp and in fact do all kinds of things
that they should not. Still they lived

ciplined and well controlled and that
naturally keeps them in better health.
Out Of thousand men there are of
course some who are not very amena-
BILE to discipline and they consequently
feel that they are badly used when
they are not allowed to do as they
want to. One of the hottest letters
that l saw from this regiment was
written by a man who struck a native
woman in dispute over the price of
some peanuts. The act was seen and
he was courtmartialed and sentenced
to the guard house very properly. He
consequently thinks with another
great soldier that "war is hell" but
he will treat women, white or other
wise, with more gentleness hereafter
while he is in the regiment. Fortu-
nately we haven't had many cases of
that kind, for our men as rule are
we'll behaved.
DEATH RATE Is SMALL,
Now the stories regarding the vast
amount Of sickness are mostly rot, but
statistics may be more convincing to
you than my simple unsupported state
ment. Since the organization of the

Land is rapidly advancing in price and
now is the time to invest Big profits are
sure to be gained by investing.
The county of which Brookings is the
county seat is the best adapted to diversified
farming ofapy in South Dakota. Situated in
the center Of the renowned Big Sioux Valley
and watered by the Big Sioux river and in
Vulnerable lakes. The soil is of rich, black
loan and is unsurpassed for fertility. The
best of water is found near the surface, and
numerous small streams water the rich farm
lands in all directions. 1t contains % town
ships and 508,5Si.43 acres of gently rolling
land, fully IS per cent of which Is under culti'
walton. Has l0i good schoolhouses valued at
about sl00,00o in round numbers. Good rail-
road facilities. Assessed valuation, 1898,
SO, 600 Tax levy, 1898, 10 mills forigeneral
purposes. Average crop for the past twenty
years, Is bushels per acre. Fine herds OF
blooded stock and rich grazing lands. NO
government land-all occupied by actual
settlers. Decided land can be.purchased at
from S12 to $50 per acre, accordinglto location.
Good railroads convenient for marketing
stock and grain.
Long distance telephone connects every
town with the county seat and extends to
many points in the state as well as into Min
nesot8 and Iowa.
The country neighborhoods throughout the
county have their churches where the people
worship every Sunday.
During the past year a large number OF peo-
pie from the east have brought their faIniiies

nently. In every instance they are contented
with their choice of location and are prosper
ing. There is still opportunities for people OF
all classes to come here and be Independent.
No state In the union offers better advantages
than can be found right here In the Sioux
Valley region.
Farmers In the east who contemplate COM
ing west can find no better soil, no better To-
cation and no better markets In the whole
northwest than Brookings connty presents.

regiment we have lost twenty-five men
by death. or these two died at Sioux
Falls, five at San Francisco, one at sea
and fourteen here at Cavite and Man.
fla. We were at Sioux Falls one
month. San Francisco one and two
thirds months and here over five
months. Two of those who died here
contracted diseases before leaving the
States, so this climate is not respon-
sible for their death. That conss-
quently makes twelve that have con-
tracted fatal disorders here. The list
of diseases may be Of interest, so I'll
give 1t: Typhoid fever. 5; diarrhGa
and malarial fever, 2; dysentery, 2;
small pox; 2; diphtheria, |. i don't
think this looks very bad, do you? III
we had remained right at Sioux Falls
I'm inclined to think We would have
lost more men. We certainly would
at San Francisco. Now with regard
to the burial Of the boys that die.
Small pox deaths are buried by the
hospital people and we are not allowed
to attend for obvious reasons. One OF
our men died at Cavite in the hospital
after we had been brought to Manila.
In that case his captain with delega-
tion from his company went over to
attend his funeral. With that excep-
tion and the two small pox cases every
other man who has died here has had

and now they have had more wisdom
pounded into them and are more dis
posed to take care of themselves.
They are in good spirits now and
seem to enjoy the life pretty we'll and
while as a rule they will all welcome
the day that starts them back to
South Dakota they are not whining 10
be hurried back and are not ''cussing
out" the government for keeping them
here on duty. They realize that Un-
Gle Sam needs them here or else he'd
send them home and they also realize
that soldiers duty is to do what he
is ordered TO do whether it Is to do
guard duty or to fight. Just now the
principal need here is for guards and
whether 1t is for fighting or guard
duty our boys can be depended on to
do business. For awhile when we first
got here, many of course, were home
sick, but that is all over now. The
duty is not hard and they are a heal
thier and husklsr looking, better NOR
ally and physically than they were
when they went into the service.

A PORTAIT IN MOSAIC.

At Pompeii has been found a beauti
full mosaic pavement which formed the
center of the flooring Of small bed
room, evidently the room of the mis-
tress of the house The border OF thu
pavement was made of common flags
then came a rectangle Of mosalc-N or <
composed of small squares of differa1'
kinds OF stones. In the center Of this
flooring was placed a beautiful little
mosaic picture, framed in narrow
border of travertine, and representing
the head and bust of woman. Un-
doubtedly it is the portrait of the mis-
tress Of the house. She is young Wo-
man, of matronly appearance, and
wears her black, wavy hair in large
coil at the back Of her head, bound
around with wide black ribbon. In
her ears are pearl earrings set in gold,
and around her neck is a rich pearl
necklace with a gold clasp set with
emeralds. Her fark dress is open in
the neck, and shows white veil or
fchu embroidered in gold. Deep black
eyes, full Of expression and half-veiled,
look out from under long eyelashes;
the small mouth, half opened with a
smile, shows white teeth between the
red lips. All this is done in very small
mosaic cubes. The preservation Of this
important mosaic is almost perfect, the
execution is remarkably good, and,
what is Of especial value, it is a por-
trait from life.-Self-Culture Magazine

THE AUDITOR GENERAL
Comparative NJ onthIy Statement
Large Cash Balance

The monthly statement of the Au-
ditor General for November, 1899, with
an accompanying statement for the
same month in 1898, Is out and shows
among other facts, the following:
The current cash balance for Noyem-
Der, 1899, is 81 $780, 73.43: for the same
month in 1898 it was $66S, 005.31. The
loan fund cash balance is S142, 749. 80;
for the same month in 1898 it was s37,
802.52. The net loan Indebtedness, in
Guiding amounts due depositors in the
Postal Savings Bank, is $4,862, 032.3 80;
for the same month in 1898 it was S4,-
AL. 37a10.
While this statement shows that the
indebtedness is more than for the cor
responding month Of 1898, it also shows
there is nearly million dollars more
on the credit side of the account.

Library OF Congress,
Copyright Department,



Dear Sir: BY request of the Librar-
ian of Congress I have the honor to
state that in regard TO the privileges of
copyright in the United States on be-
half of the natives Of Hawaii, Puerto
Rico, Cuba and the Philippines, the
opinion OF the Attorney General, De-
eember 2, 1898, was as follows:
1T appears that the subjects Of Ha-
wai had not, prior TO the passage Of
the resolution of annexation of July {,
1893, become yes.ed by proclamation
with the privilege Of copyright in the
United States. I have heretofore held,
in an opinion, that certain laws of the
United States relative 20 tonnage duss
upon vessels from foreign ports still
applied TO the ports Of Hawaii and had
not 0een abrogafed by the terms or
effect of the resolution of annexation.
think that the inhabitants OF Hawaii
are not at present, in the absence of
affirmative legislation by Congress to
that effect, entitled to the benefits Of
our copyright laws.
Puerto Rico, Cuba, anu Manila have
