TwENTL DOLLARS PER ACRE

Beadle COuty Farmer Gets $3.50
Bushels of Corn From 80 Acres.
d. P. Whorton of Wolsey township
near Huron. has just finished cribbing
1850 bushels of coin gathered from a
field of eighty acres. Mr.. Whorton
came to South Dakota In 1882, and has
grown corn on his farm every year
since that time, each year increasing
the acreage, and not once has the crop
failed to mature. This year the crop
means, in dollars and cents, $50 per
acre. Speaking Of farming ia this part
of South Dakota, Mr.. Whorton said:
II bought a quarter-section Of land
this year, for which I paid $40 per acre;
taking out my labor for the year, I
have more than the purchase money
left from the corn crop I would not
take $25 per acre of any mans money
for my Wolsey farm. I am wtntering
100 head Of cattle and eo~rn-feeding 40
head Of steers. These cattle I raised
and when they go to the market, next
June, they will be the finished product.

A WILL REMAIN.
President Urges the Secretary Not

President Urges the Secretary Not
to Resign, and Not In Vain.
Washington, Dec. 22.-In view of the
repeated publications of late to the
general effect that Secretary Hay is
about to retire from the cabinet, a
statement is given with full authority
that Secretary Hay does not now con-
template retirement. This statement
applies not only to the present, but to
that indefinite period fixed by the con-
clusion of the negotiations necessary
to the construction of an isthmian
canal. Also it is stated with equal
positiveness and authority that Presi-
den Roosevelt has in the strongest
terms expressed to Secretary Hay his
carr est desire that he shall remain in
the cabinet, Of which he forms one of
the principal props. Thus. according
to the statement, the secretary's In
clination and the presidents desires
run together and there is no foundation
for the reports that Secretary Hay is
to leave his post.

Portraits.

Tudor jerks contributes to the May
st. Nicholas an article entitled Three
Boys in Armor," concerning three no.
ted portraits by velasquez and Van
Dyck. Mr.. jerks says: Until two
years after Queen Victoria was crown
ed there never had been a photograph
Of the human face. In 1889 the first
such photograph was taken by Prof.
John w. Draper pr New York city.
Before that date and until after 1850,
those who wished portraits must pay
an artist for a painting or drawing, and
only a few could afford such a luxury.
About 1853 silhouettes were in fashion,
and some of you may not know that
these black profles were named after
q French minister Of finance. Be-
III he was said to be stingy, 1t was
considered a good joke to speak OF
cheap things as being a la Silhouette;
and these black paper portraits being
cheap. they received the minister's
name. Since great artists charged
very high prices, only the great and
rich could be painted by the masters;
and az their pictures were carefully
preserved, the fine portraits of other
days usually represent only the mobiles
and the wealthy, such as kings queens,
princes, generals. and great statesmen.
1t is natural, then, that the children
whose faces have been made known
to us by the distinguished painters
should be, little folks Of high degree
or the sons and daughters of the ar
fists, whose pictures were painted for
nothing. These old time boys and
girls r dressed in garments like
those their parents wore, for special
fashions for children's wear came at
a later time.

During the season ending Dec. l, l,0S6
car loads of stock passed through the
stock yards Of the Milwaukee company
at Chamberlain, against TAO cars one
year ago A total of 9,135 beef cattle,
or 435 car loads, were shipped to East
ern markets, as against 9,639 car loads a
year G While AZ more cars Of beef
cattle were shipped than during the
previous year the fact that shipments
did not keep pace with the great in
crease in other Gle sSes of stock move
ments was due entirely to the depressed
market. The sum of 1856, 400 was real
lied, as against S4c6, 755 last year. Cat
tlemen only shipped such stock as they
were forced to place upon the market.
preferring, as the ranges are well sup
piled with feed and water, to hold until
another season.
The most marked increase has been
in the receipts of young cattle from
Eastern and Southern points, 545 cars
of young cattle having been brought in,
as against 224 last year and 189 two
two years ago. AS these young cattle
aggregated 21,SO head, averaging about
$40 FER head laid down at Chamberlain
1t Is shown that almost $500, 900 worth of
young cattle have been placed upon
the ranges tributary to Chamberlain
during the year, In addition to the nat
uarl increase, while but 9,135 have been

for Solution by
Chicago School Board.
Chicago, Dec. %. Movable school
buildings may be the expedient hit
upon by the board of education in solv-
ing the problem of adapting school ac-
commodations to the fluctuations in
population in various parts of the city.
Supt. Cooley, in his forthcoming annual
report to the board, will recommend
that it adopt a policy Of erecting no
new schools in localities in which the
demand for accommodations has not
become fixed and which the school pop
ulation has become indefinite. In other
cities experiments have been made
with small frame structures which are
movable. They contain from two to
eight rooms, and can be removed to
other cities as the population fluctu-
ates.

A Missouri Newspaper Man Dies.

st. Louis, June 27-Peter L. Foy.
81 years of age, who was postmaster
of st. Louis during the civil war, died
yesterday at his home, 36l7 Lindell
boulevard, after an illness of two
weeks. Heart failure was the imme-
diate cause of death, although the ILL
ness of the past two weeks was kid
ney trouble. The deceased was ma
tive of the county of Mayo, Ireland.
He came to st. Louis in the sos and
became editor of the Missouri Demo-
crat. This position he continued to
hold until the opening of the civil
war, when he was appointed postmas-
ter of st. Louis by President Lin
coin. He served as postmaster until
1865, when he re-entered newspaper
work as the editor of the st. Louis
Dispatch. From this position he
never entered active life.

CONTESTED WARRANTS.
The State Treasurer Of Colorado Causes a
Breeze by Paying the Warrants Which
Former Treasurers Ignored.

Denver, Col, July IAN investiga-
ton of the payment of $4,000 worth
of contested warrants issued by the
seventh general assembly, payment
of which had been steadfastly re-
fused BY treasurers of the state for
IL years, will be made by the Fidelity
Deposit company, of Maryland, which
furnished the First national bank of
this city with an indemnity bond for
State Treasurer Chipley in the sum of
100000. The bank is surety for the
treasurer in the sum of $l,0O0000,
but is fully protected by the indem-
nifty bond. Chipley is confident
that an investigation will yindicate
his course, as he acted upon advice
of Attorney General Post and other
lawyers in paying the warrants. 1t
is charged that the state treasurer
violated the state statutes by not
publishing for 30 days notice call
ing in the warrants which he pro-
posed to pay.
