The Coming Maple Sugar season

II COMING MaNte SuSaE season.
As last spring was a poor sap season.
the poorest l have known for many
years, no doubt many orchards will lie
idle. Owners will think that the de-
struction of leaves was the cause in
many cases Of the small yield. 1t is
true that defoliage is Il serious damage
to trees. But, irrespective Of damage
by worms, it was a poor sap season all
the same. In those orchards where the
worms had mo- worked we failed to Sc
cure one good run, and in this locality
we did not have even one first class
sap day.
In consequence of this our market is
empty. and maple goods are high.
Now, these being the conditions and Il
first class sap season being expected.
as all natural signs indicate, and as
prices will be well up, let every sugar
maker do his best in this line and trust
results, urges a Vermont maple sugar
maker in The New England Home
stead.

To Prevent Freezing In Cellars.

10 Freezing In Cellars.
There are times when it seems al
most impossible to prevent vegetables
from freezing is the cellar. OF course,
having doors and windows tight and a
banking around the walls on the cold
sides does much to prevent this, but
when that coolest day since we can
remember" unexpectedly. as ii
does so many times. the chances are
that many are not well prepared for it.
A small oil stove, or even one or two
lanterns, lighted and burning win do
much TO give q warmer temperature,
and one or two tubs of water put down
there viii do nearly as much. The first.
throw eff an active heat and the water.
n latent heat. Not until the water is
frozen win anything else freeze there.
Set tie stove or lanterns IN the bottom
Of Che cellar, as heat rises. and see that
they cannot set fire to anything.

CTOCK IS SLOW

The clock on the court house is
again 'woozy." For the past year it
has been losing time at the rate of
a few seconds a month and now is
nearly three minutes behind. A few
years ago it stopped short, but unlike
Grandfather's clock, consented to start
again after considerable repairing. The
trouble now is that it is regulated a
little slow. The clock is an important
factor around the government build
ings as it is used by everybody as a

Timely Sayings
Suitable for the
Season

A bargain in time is doubly a bargain.
A mans wardrobe is never too full of
ties.
Don't take our word for it. Come
and see.
The Kash-that name stands for
progress.
Everything man or boy wears from
hose to hats.
Keep your eye on our windows.
You'll not go astray.
You need not go any farther than
right here for the best.
We're taking other folks valuation
and quoting our price for it.
Just as natural for us to lead in va
riety and value as it is for others to
follow.
Some clothing is made to sell; some
to wear. Some clothing is made for
both. That is our kind.
Don't imagine that Kash shirts will
never wear out. They will, but they
will last longer and fit better than
other makes.

FREEMAN sHULTls DEAD.
Died From Stroke of Paralysis Which
Happened Several Months Ago
at Seattle.

Word was received Saturday by
R. P. Hall, secretary of the Masonic
lodge, from the secretary OF the Mason.
ic lodge in Seattle, Wash, announcing
the death of Freeman Shultis at that
place and formerly OF Mitchell. His
death occurred Aug. 81 and the funeral
was held Sept 2, under the auspices of
the Masonic lodge of that city.
Several months ago Mr.. Shultis was
stricken with paralysis and the indica-
tions were that he could not live long.
The old friends of the deceased will be
sorry to learn of his death, and the
friends of Mrs. Shultis and Mrs. E. f.
Winsor will extend their sympathy
over their bereavement. The family
moved to Seattle two or three years
ago from this city. The deceased was
among the first residents of Mitchell
and was one of the charter memb bers OF
the Masonic lodge.

tell whether he wanted Mark Hanna or
the trusts dissolved or both.
Mr.. Leatz attempted to gain favor
with the old soldiers BY criticising the
administration on the matter OF PEN
sions. 1t would have been proper had
he spoken of the attitude of Senator
Pettigrew on this pension matter. At
the close of the session of congress
Pettigrew had the floor and there we're
some pension bills to come up at the
last. Pettigrew declined to yield the
floor for the consideration of the pen.
sion bills on the ground that there was
more important business before the
country than the pension bills and as
result there were good many old
soldiers who were compelled to await
action on their pensions because of the
South Dakota senator's unreasonable
ness. Mr.. Lentz could have given that
as one of the reasons why the pensions
did not come along fast enough.
In closing Mr.. Lentz urged the cleo
tlon OF Pettlgrsw and the congressman
and warned the de nocrats to watch for
the corruption fund that was coming
into the state. 1t was q pretty good
stump speech and he did not keep his
agreement With the audience at the
outset in not fooling the people. The
democrats expressed Themselves as
being we'll pleased with the speech and
his remarks we're frequently punctured
with applause.

CUTTERS ENDORSED

Corn Palace Week--A Fine In
DFOY9ment.
ON THE GUTTER PROBLEM.
Special Committee Made Its Report
to the Council and Recommended
That Cement be Used.

A special meeting of the city council
was held Friday evening to hear the re-
port OF the committee sent to Yankton
to investigate the cutters laid on the
main street of that city. The commit.
tee made a pretty full report of it's in
vestigations ut Ysnkton and for the
benefit of the public the report is given
entire, as follows:
To the Mayor and council of the city of
Mitchell, S. d:
Your committee appointed to visit
Yankton to make enquiries concerning
the street crossings and cutters of that
city do respectfully submit the follow.
ing report. On our arrival at Yankton
We Immediately called on the city clerk,
and while we were in his office, the
former clerk, and also the chairman of
the street and alley committee came in.
These three gentlemen were unanimous
in praising cement as the material for
crossings and cutters. But they also
agreed that very much depends on how
said crossings and cutters were made,
and if put in as they should be such
crossings are the most durable known.
Your committee then examined the
walks and cutters of Yankton, and must
say that we are confident that Mitchell
has better crossings and walks than has
Yankton, due, in d large measure, to
the work having bsen done in more
workmanlike manner. also. we think
to the fact that our sand is superior to
that within reach of Yanktun
Your commit then visited MIR. Frost
ensen, the chemist at she cement works,
who told what lie considered the cause
of the cracks in the sidewalks and also
why the crossings gave such evidence
of weakness.
He then gave us some very excellent
instruction about how the work of max.
ing cutters and crossings should be
performed.
Ut Your committee then found Mr..

NUMBER so.

Bruce, the city engineer, who fully COR,
roborated al that the chemist told us.
These gentlemen impressed your COM
mittee rs being specialists in their line
OF work and we believe that great reli-
ance can be placed on what they said -
Hence we advise the following:
First: That our cutters be made OF
cement, and that they be three feet
wide from the curbing.
Second:-That the foundation be-
made OF clean-washed- gravel of various
grades in the proportion of one part
cement to five PAL ts OF gravel
Third:-That the top be made of
cement and clean ashed- sand in the
proportion of one part cement to, one
part sand.
Fourth:-That tho foundation be
four inches thick and the top finish not
less than one inch thick.
Fifth:-That the gutter be laid in
blocks between transverse boards. and
that the space occupied BY the boards
be filled with cement and SAND in equal
parts, said blocks not to be more than
four fe ct long.
Sixth:-That the cutters be eome-
what dished but that the Foundation
shall curve downward at the outer edge,
to prevent horses and wheels from
chipping off the edge.
L. A. STOUT,
j. L. HANNETT, Committee.
Jos. MCLAUGHLIN.
The council decided to accept the re-
port made by the committee, with the
possible modification of the plans to
some extent to suit the conditions in
this locality. Prof. Stout. aside from
the report made. gave some additional
information to the oouncili of q fuller
nature on the matter of gutter building
and cement sidewalks.
Revs. T. h. Youngman and D. r.
Tomlin, as committee of the clergy
of the city came before the council with
the statement that it was rumored that
on the Sunday, when the corn palace
was to remain open, that the law of the
city would be run with loose hand.
with particular reference to the open
ing of the saloons and the running of
and other appliances
which might be here during the week.
The gentlemen did not want 10 cast any
reflection on the council by bringing
this matter to its attention. and dis
avowed any belief that it would permit
anything of the character, but asked
for the benefit of those who had that
idea for an expression in reference to
the enforcement of the laws on that
day. The mayor and each of the alder
men present assured the gentlemen that
thev would not cOuntenence any vio-
1ations of the law in anv respect on Sum
day or any day during the corn palace
week.
"a resolution was introduced by Alder.
man Perry which had for it's object the
doine awav of hitching of teams on
Main street and providing for hitchiug
racks on the side streets. One or two
aldermen thought that as long as the
telegraph and electric light polls re-
mainad on Main strest that people
would use them for hitcbing posts. and
in fact any thing that they could tie to.
Mr.. Perrv consented to the resolution
being laid on the table until the next
meeting. The council then adjourned.
