On his return with the ducks he dis
covered the horse had not been idle
but had chewed the back cushion
out and other parts Of the seat.

Another evidence of the atten-
tivepess to duty and efficiency of
the night policeman L. L. Mozart
ney is given by A. H. White. Tues
day night the back door Of Whites
store was found open and Mr.. Nc
Cartney after ascertaining that
there was no one in the store arous-
ed Mr.. White about three o'clock in
the morning. He came to the store
and everything was found all right
cCartney was at the store earlier
during the night and the doors were
all right. 1t is presumed that the
wind ratified the door so that the
bolt was Jared back This shows
that Rem is on the alert all the time
for the protection Of the public well
fare.
One John Ruk German of Salem
So Oak. about 81 years old register
ed at Philips House in Sioux Falls
last night TUESDAY - and was as
signed room no ON second floor,
and OH retiring. turned off the gas
let in his room. but in some manner
had opened the burner lightly, and
when the night clerk discovered gas
coming from his room at about 4 a.
IN. and finding door unfastenetd,
hastily examined the man, and find
ing him unconcious summoned a
=: physician an at a. m. the victim
was considered out of danger.
Two hundred and twenty three
seats were reserved at nine o'clock
Thursday. for the Liquid Air enter
tain1nent There was a large
crowd waiting the opening of Nor
i land s drugstore, to secure seats, at
an early hour. OF course there is all
kinds of suggestions as to the best
method of handling the reservation
of season tickets, but, it does seem,
as if it would be preferable to open
the store at the usual time and serve
those who come early, as it was
Thursday, some OF those who
were on hand earliest were pushed
back by those coming later, and
rather than cause any i'll feeling
the aogrieved ones made no COM
Dlaint at the time. Even after a
line was formed on the outside, some
ignored it and crowded in at the
head Of the line, one party crowded
bv, probably twenty five people, and
secrrled seats, this is not courteous to
say the least and it is hoped that the
matter will be sufficiently aired SO
that next time, those coming late
will have some respect for those who
have observed the line and fall in
where they belong.
