South Dakota is getting some ad-

to prove beneficial. For years eastern
papers have tried to make their read
ers believe that South Dakota was a
drouth.stricken country. No matter
how many corrections there we're sent
them they would stick to their orig
inal story. This year the drouth is
scattered all over the country except
in South Dakota and in the reports
sent out from all sections regarding
the drouth and the condition of the
crops, South Dakota stands out all by
its lonesome as the one state In the
union which has not been a severe

sufferer from lack of moisture.
The New York World of Sunday de-
voted considerable space to a report
of the crop conditions all over the
country. South Dakota headed the
list as having the best crops of any
state in the union. South Dakota
was given II per cent of perfect
crop. 1t is altogether likely that
small grain will exceed this point and
it is sure thing that corn will rate
somewhere higher than this.
The Chicago Record Herald Of
Tuesday morning also contained an
article on the crop conditions and In
this, too, South Dakota stands out
we'll to the front in the small grain
yield, while in regard to corn the
Record Herald places South Dakota as
fourth 10 the list with 20 per cent OF
perfect crop. This makes South Da-
kota lead all states west of the Miss
issippi river. The three states which
are placed ahead Of South Dakota and
their rating are Indiana and Tennes-
see with rs per cent OF perfect crop
and Kentucky with IA per cent of a
perfect crop. When the corn is har-
vested South Dakota will be found to
have much better crop than the
above indicates.
In 1900 South Dakota was also
fourth in rank as to perfect crops At
that time the record stood: Iowa,
100 per cent; Indiana, 9S per cent; Illi-
nois, 81 per cent, and South Dakota
80 per cent. This was on the first day
Of October. Sioux Falls Arg-Leader.

SANITY FROM HEAT
Andrew Olson Attempts to Take His
Life While Temporarily Deransed on
Account OF Excessive Heat.

Last week Thursday Andrew Olson,
who had been living at Arlington,
took the train east as far as Volga
and then walked down to the railroad
bridge across the Big Sioux river,
where he stopped to talk with some
men who were working on the bridge.
While there Olson said he had been
overheated during the hot weather
and was obliged to quit the farm. He
complained that his head ached all
the time and seemed affected by the
heat that day. All at once he jumped
into the Sioux river without removing
his clothing and remained under water
so long the men thought he would
drown. He finally came to the sur.
face and taking his money purse, con-
tanning over sixty dollars, from his
pocket, threw 1t on the bank aud then
opened his pocket knife and cut
gashes across both wrists, severing
the arteries. Standing in the water
he would dip his arms in It and
then hold them up to see the blood
run. The men on the bridge dare not
approach Olson, fearing he might at
tack them. They say the river was
red with the mans blood. AS soon as
they recovered their senses handcar
was dispatched to Volga and Marshal
Blair returned in time to save the
mans life, though he had almost bled
to death.
The officer had nothing with him to
stop the blood flowing, but succeeded
In placing handouts around Olson's
wrists above the gashes and took him
to Volga, where a physician soon
sewed up the wounds and made the
unfortunate man as comfortable as
possible. At last accounts Olson was
recovering and had become rational.
A young tramp giving his name as
G. l.. Lee and hailing from Prairie du
Chen, Wis, was in swimming near
the bridge at the time Olson threw
his money on the bank and after
dressing came along the bank. See
ing a large roll of bills on the ground
and the purse near by, he picked up
the outfit and handed the purse con-
tanning $9.47 to. the men, saying he
thought 1t might be Olsons. The
bills he forgot to mention, and went
to Volga, where he purchased $3.50
watch and pocketbook.
When Marshal Blair was down at
the bridge the men gave him the
purse, which he took to Volga with
him. When Olson had regained his
senses Blair asked him how much
money he had and Olson said about
$50. The officer at once saw that the
purse had been relieved OF portion Of
its contents and went down to the
bridge gang to find out what had be-
come of the other $50. They told him
about the young tramp and returning
to town Blair caught Lee and placed
him under arrest and secured the
money after making Lee return the
watch and purse and getting the
money paid for the articles. On FRI
day Lee was brought to Brookings
and his hearing is set for the 18th.
