TIE COMMISSION is NO GOOD
J. Burke Hendy, of London, Has No
South Dakota Credentials,

Pierre, S. D., Dec. Ex-Governor Her.
reid a short time ago received an an,
pllcaticn from ]. Burke Hendy of Lon
don, asking that he be reappointed as
commissioner Of deeds for South Da-5
kota for England. The applicant was
informed that the laws made no pro-
visions for the appointment of such off,
GERS in other than states or territories
of the United States, and this no such
appointment could be legally made in a.
foreign country. The Englishman re-
piled that the governor was certainly
in the wrong, as he had held such a.
commission for O years, which had
been granted to him by Governor Lee.
He has now been furnished a copy Of
an opinion by Attorney General Pyle
bearing on the case to convince him
that his commission issued by the for
mer administration had no standing,
and annOt be renewed.

n AlpAAAB PICTURE VI BUFFALO,
After Rudyard Kipling had spent q
day or two in Buffalo in the eighties
he thus described it: Buffalo Is a
large village Of quarter of million
inhabitants situated on the seashore.
which is falsely called Lake Erie. Once
clear Of the main business streets you
launch upon miles and miles Of as.
phalted roads running between cot
tages and cut stone residences of those
who have money and peace. When you
have seen the outside of few hundred
thousand OF these homes and the in
side OF few score. you begin to
understand why the American does not
take deep interest in what they call
politics and why he is so vaguely and
generally proud Of the country that en-.
ables him to be 90 comfortable. How

ticularly the married men. to be ever
kind. courteous and considerable to wo-
men. to overlook all opportunities for
trouble. TO be good to them and So
licitous of their welfare. and finished
with mastery peroration relating to
connubial decency on the part of hus-
bands.

1t seems that there is an unwritten
code Of sleeping car ethics which has
its fine distinctions. The International
says: "The seasoned traveller enters
the Pullman as If it were a room in
club with which he is familiar, but
which he has not visited for some time.
He slows away his belongings. accord
ing to his habit. puts on his travelling
cap and pair of light shoes or slippers
and overgaiters. gets out his newspa-
pers and book and. not forgetting his
smoking outfit. is ready to be COM
Portable. Be it remembered that if
slippers be donned they must always
be accompanied by overgaiters. for
without these latter the slippered foot
is not permissible under the unwritten
law OF sleeping car travel"

Waiting, with kindly thought, the evenings close
When we shall tire OF play?
And life's vast tragedies, its sins and wrongs,
Are they not but wounds that children feel,
A tale that to the nursery belongs
OF hurts left for his tender touch to hes:
Does he not smile, the good God Of US 81,
Knowing how his love for every one.
Making things right when evenings shadows fall
And the rough play is done?
