Normal schools.

President Beadle, OF the Madison
normal, school anticipates a larger at
tendance this year than he has ever
had before. Nearly all the rooms in
East Hall have been engaged, and the
50 pledge money, sent in advance in
order to make sure of them, has been
sent freely. A number of inquiries have
been received from outside the state
from students who desire to teach in
South Dakota, and think their chances
would be better II they attended a
South Dakota school. A number Of
comments have been received from
county superintendent and principals
of schools throughout the state on the
Inauguration of the two-years' course.
which Will aid many teachers in ac-
curing the qualifications necessary
for teaching In country and graded
schools.
The fall term OF the state normal
school at Springfield will commence
Sept. 10. It is expected that the at
tendanc eduring the coming year will
be much greater than in any past year.
The large addition to the school which
was recently completed will furnish
ample room for the increased number
of pupils who will attend. Everything
indicates a very successful future for
the school.

STILL THEY COME.
Land Rush 20 10Th Dakota shows
No Falling on.

Many more people came to Aberdeen
last night to look for land, and the ho-
tells were unable tn accommodate all OF
them, many sitting on chairs in the ho-
tel offices, after the rooms were filled
and all the cots available pressed into
service. Corridors, parlors and every
other bit of floor space that could be
utilized were filled with cots. Besides
those who sat I'm chairs i'm the hotels, a
considerable number occupied benches
I'm the waiting rooms of the Milwaukee
passenger station, as was the case on
Tuesday night.
Some of the hotels were alled before
the evening trains came in. In some OF
the houses guests We're given blankets
and quilts and given the privilege OF
lying on the floor wherever they could
find space enough At the Sherman $50
people were taken care Of in spite OF
the fact that part of the building was
out OF use because OF rebuilding. The

who curled up in blankets OF sat in
chairs in the offie. The Aberdeen took
care of about ninety. and the Wiscon-
sin over eighty, while the Commercial,
Occidental and other small houses We're
packed full. Besides this there were a
number OF special cars in the yards OF
the railroad companies. which had
brought the people In, and they were all
filled.
The trains fro different directions
were loaded down. and the South Mil
waukee pulled in the heaviest train ev-
er run over the James River line, IL is
said, using two engines to make the
run. The Northwestern was likewise
loaded, and was made up with extra
coaches.
The crowd of land-buyers represented
half a dozen states, and they report
that the big rush has not yet really be-
gun.
The Northwestern had FIVE coaches,
three sleeper sand two baggage cars in
to Huron, with two engines, and pulled
a large train into Aberdeen. The bulk
of the passengers left the train there,
but some OF them went on to points
north.

French inventor Declares 1hht
Aerial Ferry Ii infringement on
His Patents.
Duluth, Aug. So.-A French engineer
who achieved fame as a result of his
invention of the aerial bridge which
spans the Seine at Roen, France, de-
clares that the proposed aerial bridge
for the Duluth ship canal Is an In
fringement on his patents, and that
he will begin litigation to protect his
rights. All Of the Arnodean aerial
ferry patents are OF the same general
description. Between pillars sort Of
suspension bridge is built, consisting
OF a horizontal platform supported by
steel cables stretched between the
SUBMITS of the pillars. Upon this
platform are small railroad tracks,
along which roll wheels carrying the
vertical cables to which the passenger
car is attached and which moves above
the water on a level with the piers.
The Duluth aerial bridge, while de-
signed along similar lines. will be rad
ically different and stronger 1t is d
stiff truss design, not a suspension
bridge idea, as invented by Arnoden.
Duluth officials feel the city is safe
from successful litigation on account
of the alleged infringement.

Keokuk. Iowa. Aug 80. A police
man accidentally found the now cele-
brated KeIlar baby yesterday in the
south part Of the city. He was serv-
ing a subpoena in another case when
the excitement in the neighborhood
convinced him that he was near the
hiding place where the mother, Mrs.
Vina kellar, had concealed the baby.
The people were much excited for
a while, as they all favor the mother.
They thought that Secretary Park of
the Associated Charities had obtained
a habeas corpus writ to get the sick
baby from the custody of the mother,
who is acting as a special constable.
After finding the baby the attorney
for Secretary Park advised him not to
use the authority given him by the
construction of the law to take the
baby from the mother who was found
by the trial court competent to keep

that the early-planted corn Is maturing

crop. In later-planted fields the pros
