LUCKY AND UNLUCKY FALLS.

The Distance Often Less Important
 Than the Way of Alighting.
 There is something rather curious to me about the distance that men may fall without getting hurt" observed a New Orleans contractor yesterday but it is not always the case that a drunken man can fall further than other men without getting bruised up or killed. In my own experience in construction work I have observed few instances where perfectly sober men have fallen great distances with out getting hurt. Of course, as gen eral thing. a man whose muscles are thoroughly relaxed on account or the influence of liquor is less liable to in jury than the sober man, who will make all kinds of efforts to catch himself, and who will in this way endanger his limbs by making them rigid and stiff.
 But I recall the case of a man who WAS working on a building with me several years ago, and at the time he was engaged on the fifth story He was working in one of the window 5 in the side of the building. In some way eA'O
 he lost his balance and went head over heels down the side of the building toward the sidewalk. The sight made me sick, and I was actually afraid to look on the sidewalk below, because ' felt certain that my friend had been mashed into a pulp by the long fall We got down to the ground as soon as possible I was surprised when I failed to see my friend. He had not stopped on the sidewalk, but went crashing into the cellar. I rushed into the cellar, and you can imagine the surprise I felt when I met my friend with a smile on his face and making his way to the short dumpy steps that led up out of the cellar I asked him if he was hurt, and he replied that the fall jolted him a little and that his blood chilled some what while he was going through the

degree is conferred upon him. Each of the Yale buildings bears the university seal of great proportions, done in blue and gold.

 From the simple school of 1701 Yale to-day finds herself tremendous plant developed through the years from building institution down through her Brick Row" to a campus, thence to 8. second campus and now to-day to a third, and even stretching out in her departmental buildings to territory as great again.

Reseeding tho Ranges.

A report from Rapid says that at the
coming meeting of the Western South
Dakota Cattle Growers Association in
that city, one of the most important
questions to come up for discussion will
be the re-seeding of the Black Hills and
eastern Wyoming ranges. In many
parts of the rangesthe native grass has
been killed off by overcrowding of cattle.
An experiment made by the Oregon
Navigation company, operating in that
state, has proven success and will be
undoubtedly adopted in this section.
This company employed r. c. Judson
as their industrial agent and his work
has been successful. He found that
there are five grasses and two alfalfas
that grow on the fapge without naviea'
tion

Delinquent Tax Bill.

Senator Burke has introduced bill in
the state senate to govern the collection
of delinquent real estate tax that Is novel
in its way and should prove effective,
says Pierre special Of the 18th. At
the present time there are more back
taxes owed to the state than would pay
the state twice over, and If the Hills
counties had what is coming to them
their warrants and other forms of in
debtedness would be gilt-edge at their
face value. while their treasures would
be overfowing with coin. This bill
provides that following the time when
taxes become delinquent they shall be

CITY, SOUTH FEBRUARY l6 1901

entered as . judgment against the land
by due process of the law and that these
judgments shall subsequently be sold to
the highest bidder for not less than %
per cent of their face value.
The judgment would then take the
form Of tax certificates aud would be In.
contestable for the amount paid by the
holder, who could in time take ont tax
deed the same as at present. The bill
would, however, abolish the privilege
the tax title holder now enjoys of being
permitted to 60 to the treasurer's Office
as soon as the taxes are spread and by
paying the tax subsequent to his certi.
ficate compel the owner to put up Is per
cent interest on the same, although 1t
may have been the intention of the lat
ter to pay the tax before it became de.
lInquent. D
The fees for jrtgc,cnts and recording
are nominal. and the holder OF certificate
would feel absolutely sure thathe would
get his money back in the event of re.
demption. Before the judgment can be
taken against the land the owner must
be served with a notice Of the amount
of the tax and shall also be cited to ap-
pear at time and place to show cause
why the judgment should not be enter
ed. The taxpayer can appear at the
time and contest the tax on any legal
ground whatever, but if he fails to es.
tablish his case or permits the proceed
ings to 90 by default he can not after
wards set up the illegality of the tax as
a defense.
Those who haye examined the bill
carefully say 1t is an admirable consep
ton and that without working an injus-
.tice to any person it would result in
cleaning upa very large percentage Of
the outstanding taxes on the more worth
less kinds of lands and lots. The bill
also abolishes the tax compromise law,
as affecting taxes hereafter spread, but
expressly provides that the land owner
may redeem within certain time upon
payment of the actual money expended
by the holder of the certificates with in.
tefest.

Mrs. Annie ID. Talent Is Dead.

BY reports which have been promptly
Transmitted to us we learn that Mrs.
Annie ID. Talent departed this life at
her home in Sturgis on the morning Of
the 18th Of the present month.
Mrs. Tallent has been in poor health
for some time but the immediate cause
of her death was pneumonia. There
are many sympathetic souls, especially
among the older residents of the Black
Hills, who will feela pang OF regret at
the passing of this noble lady.
Mrs. Talent came to the country in
the autumn of 1874. and enjoyed the dis.
tinction of being the first white woman
to enter the Black Hills. Her husband
and herself were members of the first
expedition commanded by Collins &
Russell who passed the winter of "a in
the Stockade on French creek, two miles
east of this city. Mrs. Talent was en-.
deared to all who knew her, as, in addi
ton her possession Of all of the tender
and enabling qualities of her sex, she
was lady of rare refinement and edu
cation. A few years ago she wrote anG
published book entitled. "The Black
Hills or the Last Hunting Ground o
the Dakotah's." which gives a vivid des
cription ofthe deprivations and stirini
incidents of those early days.
The funeral took place at Rapid City
which for the most part has been he
home for many years, and its beautifu
cemetery now affords her fitting rest
ing place far removed from the scene
| of toll and strife.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the larg-
est sale Of any medicine in the civilized
world. Your mothers and grandmoth-
ers' never thought of using anything
else for indigestion or biliousness. Doc.
tors were scarce, and they seldom heard
of appendicitis, nervous prostration or
heart failure, etc. They used August
Flower to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food, regu-
late the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches and
other aches. You only need a few
doses of Green's August Flower. in Ii
quid form, to make you satisfied there
Is nothing serious the matter with you.

La Grippe Quickly Cured.

I'm the winter of 1898 and 1899 / was
taken down with severe attack of what
is called la grippe" says F. L. Hswett, a
prominent druggist of Winfield, ILL.,.
"The only medicine I used was two
bottles of Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. 1t broke up the cold and stopped
the coughing like magic, and I have
never since been troubled with grippe" ;"
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy can al
ways be depended upon to break up a
severe cold and ward off any threaten
ed attack Of pneumonia. 1t is pleasant
to take, too. which makes it the most
desirable and one Of the most popular
preparations in use for these ailments.

n. c. Nash, editor ofthe Canton News,
who lie ono Of the newly appointed mem
bers of the Soldiers Home board, has
the following in his paper relative to
the management Of the Home: There
is variety of opinions as to how the
Soldiers Home at Hot Springs should
be managed. Some appear to think it
should be a military prison. Others
seem to think that In addition to its be
ing prison, it should be a disciplinary
institution. Neither of these views
have the approval Of our judgment.
The News believes that the patriotic
people of this state, remembering that
in the prime of their young manhood,
the decrepit old veterans who seek re-
fuge in the Home, risked their lives and
all they held most dear, in defense of
the flag of their country. and remember
ing this, provided by legislative enact
ment for the establishment of the Home
and intended that it should be in fact as
we'll as in name, a home and we be.
lieve the people of the state who volun.
tarily tax themselves for the mainten.
ance of the Home, desire that it shall
be as comfortable home as possible for
the poor old veterans whose ability to
support themselves, has, with their de-
clining health, departed. The severe
discipline and arbitrary methods of the
regular army are out of place in an in
stitution of this character. The "Modle
Home" in our judgment, is the home
that secures The most comfort with the
least possible "militarism" for the
weather beaten wrecks that drift to it as
q haven of refuge"

South Dakota held their annual meet.
ing at Yankton, this state, last Tuesday.
All the principal workers of building
and monumental stones of the state
were there or represented, and consid.
erable business was transacted. Among
the other things discussed was the mat
ter of rates on the various railroads Of
the state, whereby the South Dakota

the firms from other states. They also
took up the matter of a uniform schedule
Of charges for work, and it was adopted,

Some of the building stone from the
property Of the Black Hills Porcelain
Clay and Marble company of Custer was
exhibited before the meeting, and was
given much favorable comment. The
company had samples of its white, black
and mottled marble, granite and serpen-
tine before this meeting. and they were
carefully examined. The members of
the association were considerably sur.
prised to find stone of that quality from
tLeir own state, although they annou nc
ed that it pleased them very much. The
Black Hills stone they pronounced equal
