Hundreds of eyes were turned to-
ward the moon Thursday night to
watch the total eclipse which was due
at that time. The moon commenced
to pass out of sight at 1920 and it
was nearly 2 o'clock before it's entire
face was revealed to the eye. 1t was
an attractive sight, for the night was
clear and the eclipse could be plainly
seen.

The work of laying stone for the
foundation Of Fred Widman's hotel
building was commenced Monday. |
The concrete on the north side was
hardened sufficiently as to permit the
stone being laid. Large stone, neatly
cut, is being used for the walls and
it is being laid in courses, which will
give the building a much neater ap-
pearance. With weather like this
for the next two or three weeks the
greater part of the foundation will
be completed before winter really
sets in.
The weather Sunday was an ideal
October day, and about every person
in the city who possessed a con-
veyance was out riding to enjoy the
sunshine and the bracing atmosphere.
1t was exceedingly warm and
pleasant. South Dakota is now
enjoying the same kind Of fall
weather that has been prevalent for
a good many years. Strangers from
the east marvel at the excellent
weather and did they not experience
it they would be 10th to believe that
it could be so idealistic.
