This region is now experiencing it's
second attack of winter for the season.
But there's consolation in knowing
that we're not going to have a long,
cold winter now-for here We are to
the last day Of January. Yet, when we
come to think of it we remember that
It was February 2, 1871, when the
SHOWS began falling tn, hesTiest in
Eastern Dakota-in that pzser.to.be.
forgotten winter. On thAt ste there
actually fell two feet of sisw-all in
q hours-and it showed = little every
day or two until spring, "a deiar arrived
the latter part of May. H1qcording to
the history Of that winter there's, yet

.rhe Lady Of Lyons 81

Mr.. Sanford Dodge and his talented
company will play an engagement here
February 5th, pre- senting "rhe Lady of
Lyons, by Bulwer Lytton. The period
chosen for the incident of this play is
some years after the commencement
If the revolution in France, arising
chiefly from oppressive taxation. A
pirit of discontent had long been
growing up among the middle and
lower classes against the sovereign
scene of tumult, riot, debauchery and
blood year after year had passed on,
low one party ruling and now anoth-
er, until at the period when this play
commences the governing power con-
sisted of q body of men, or deputies,
chosen from the people and termed,
The Directory-all of them s'citiEens, y
the only terms recognized degrees
cf nobility and rank having been
abolished. Tue authors good judg-
lnent is most felicitiously shown in Sc
lecting France and this period for the
action of his play. Claud Melotte,
the leading role, is played by Mr..
Dodge. 1t is u fine drawn character
and depicts high ambition, ardent love
and ut the same time a deep sense of
true nobility and honor. This charac-
ter has always been great fayorite
with leading actors, Edwin Booth and
Edwin Forest having played it very
successfully. leila 2. Leslie, as Paul
inc. is everything that could be de-
sired to realized the authors picture,
and is said to have made distinct hit
in the past. Madame Deshappelus is
al excellent specimen of a vain, am
bilious woman, whose only heaven
seems to be sPrinces" or LORDS" To
the shrine of one or tho other she is
ready to sacrifice her daughter and
has carefully schooled her thoughts in
that direction. Blanche Booth, a
peice of the late Edwin Booth, the
greatest actor of his time, has been
engaged to play this part. Miss Booth
was formerly leading lady with her
uncle Edwin Booth and played this
part many times in his support.
Nearly all of the members of the COM
peny who appeared here last season
are still with Mr.. Dodge and have been
cast to good advantage.

Couldn't stand 1t Thirty Minutes.

A fellow named Towne gave Edge
mont hot shot one day last week.
He alighted from an ast.bound train,
inquired of some one how long the
train would remain there, and received
the reply ''about thirty minutes" He
coolly remarked, "that't too long for
me-" and pulling razor slashed across
his throat three or four times, sever
ing his wind-pipe before bystanders
could stop him. They sent for a ply
sician and by heroic and skillful treat
ment saved the mans life. Later de-
velopments satiafied his attendants
that the man was crazy. He had start
ed from Montana in good mcntal con
dition to visit his parents in Iowa. but
got "off" somehow. Geo. Thorpe saw
tho attempted suicide and it makes
him shudder yet to think of it..
If we didn't have a pretty good opinion
of Edgemont from a knowledge of its
hustling citizens and bright prospects
we might suggest moral-to avoid a
30 minute stop there.

Dramatic Event of the season.

Mr.. Sanford Dodge, whose populari-
ty seems to increase with each sue.
ceeding year, will be the attraction at
the Opera House, Feb. 5th. His amaz-
ing succes SIS has often been the subject
ment, and has been ascribed to vari-
GUS causes.
Mr.. Dodge is usually surrounded by
q strong and capable company, but
this season it is said he is carrying the
best support he has ever had during
his career.
Special scenery and elegant cos
tunes are used for each production
making them high class dramatic
gems.

THE SOLDIERS HOME.

Items of Interest Pertaining to tho State
Institution and tho Boys
In Blue.
The cold snap has kept engineer
Phillips busy shoveling coal into the
NAV of the furnace. So far we have
got through comfortable and safe.
Pat Brennan, the faithful yard man,
is back from his visit to Union county,
He comes back from his visit refreshed
and rested for spring campaign.
Henry Sargent is putting in lot of
good wood on the Home grounds, all
green and straight, but will be dry in
time for summer use.
Charles Hotgden, of Roberts Co.,
came into the Home last week. He
is in poor health and needs the COM
forts afforded here. He is q happy and
contented man.
Uncle Rob Wyrick returned from a
visit to Rapid City on Monday night's
train. He reports pleasant time, but
says there is no place for an old sol.
dier like the Home. Uncle Rob is S5
and quite shaky from palsy.
We have new barber whose name
is Barber as we'll as his profession. He
takes the place of Billy Mckinney
whose health failed him so he had to
give up the shop. Mr.. Barber is the
best artist in his line we have had.
John s. Jones returned from long
furlough pretty we'll done up with
rheumatism. He spent his time at or
near Spearfish working for some board
ing house keeper. AS soon as he is
better, will be off again.
"Gen." Tom Black has the best barn
full of COWS in the Black Hills and
knows how to take care of them better
than any man in the state and notonly
knows how, but does the work. 1t is
a luxury to pass through Toms barn
and herd of mixers.
Much comment is made about the
resolution passed by the Board relative
to gambling. Some of the boys de-
clare it is an abridgement of personal
liberty. May be it is so, in a sense,
but all will agree it is wise provision
and in their interest, as we'll as good
morals.
A letter from Eugene West, who left
here last fall in half crazy condition,
says he has entirely recovered and will
return after while. He is with his
daughter at Hay Springs, Neb. In his
letter he says he has realized as never
before the injurious effects of using
strong drink and he will hereafter let
the cup alone.
Geo. B. Fullington was taken in GUS
tody by the sheriff Monday under an
insanity warrant. Geo. had an epilep.
tic fit Saturday evening and another
Sunday moning and since then has
been totally insane. 1t is recalled that
he has been acting little queer for
some time. His general health is poor
and it is probable he will not survive
long.
During the Board meeting last week
a camp fire was held in the chapel
which was very entertaing to the boys.
Each of the Commissioners made q
speech on different lines. AS usual
Comrades Nash and Baker broke
lances and made each other the butt
of all sorts of jokes. The keen repar-
tee between them brought down the
house several times. No other speech
es were made. Mrs. Bickmore gave
two recitations which were greatly en-
joyed, as all her recitations are.

Comments ON the sanitarium.

The South Dakota senators are to
be highly commended for their sue
cess in securing the passage of the bill
establishing a national sanitarium for
disabled veterans at dot Springs.
This institution will be a most valuable
acquisition for the state and for the
old soldiers. It has been hoped for for
many years. Fortunately at last
we have an efficient delegation at
Washington.-Arg Leader.
Hot Springs, s. d. is in fair way to
secure a branch Of the national home
for disabled volunteer soldiers. The
senate has passed the bill appropriat.
ing s15O,OOO for the establishment of
the home, with an additional appropri-
alton of $4,000 for the transportation
of inmates. There is reason tO believe
that the house will concur and that
the hopes of Hot Springs will be real
ized at this session of congress. There
is no better location for such a home
than Hot Springs. This has been
proven by the establishment there OF
the state home and the popularity of
the place for rheumatic invalids. A
strong effort was made to secure favor.
able legislation in the Fifty fifth con-
gress, but Uncle Joe Cannon got ahead
Of the South Dakota people with his
proposition for home at Danville, Ill.

While Lead was suffering with ten

Springs was enjoying temperature
slightly above zero. VIM. Andrews
came up from there Saturday and says
there was only little snow there aud
the weather not at all severe. AS q

quite good deal warmer in winter
than any other place in the Hills and

by jury in circuit court Wednesday
and O'Connell was acquitted after the
