John Parmenter sends the fol-
lowing amusing account Of the at
tempted robbery at Oliyet last week
which he clipped from y daily pa
per published in Spokane, Wash:
"Three burglars blew up the safe
in the county treasury at noon to-
day and then fled. A posse was
quickly organized and hot pursuit
was given. One Of the trio was
killed and another was captured.
Neither the dead bandit nor the
captured one has as yet been iden-
tilted. The third has not been
taken. The crime of the three men
was bold and desperate. At the
noon hour, during a lull in busi-
ness, they entered the Office, COW
cred the men therein with revoly.
ers, and demanded the money in
the safe. Being refused, they ap-
piled dynamite. A crowd was i'm
mediately attracted and then the
fight and fight began"
There is one truth in the above
article, three men attempted te
rob the treasurer's office at Oliyet.

tits coming to be expected that
a real change in the climate has
taken place since settlement, and
more particularly during the past
five years. The rainfall is not ma
terially increased nor is the mean
temperature different. These mat
ters are things Of long record and
can be determined with exactness.
The change appears to be III an
absence Of the high winds of for
mer years and particularly Of the
hot summer winds, which in pc
riods of drouth used to wither veg
citation. The protracted drouth of
June last was accompanied by cold
weather which, alone, saved the
crops from great damage. Through
out the whole period there was a
degree of humidity in the air in
marked contrast to the cracking
dry weather Of the old days. It is
popularly believed that the chang
ed condition is due to the vast
quantities of water brought to the
surface by the artesian wells, as
sisted, no doubt, by the amount Of
storm water retained in the plowed
fields, which formerly ran away in
the streams. South Dakotan. I

Sor -so company Of newspaper
men, several Of them from cChica-
go, through the state in his pri
vate car, and the accounts of what
they saw are certainly very COM
plimentary to the state. For six
consecutive years South Dakota
has produced the greatest per cap
ita wealth Of any state in the un-
ion, and the prospects are bright
for retaining that prestige for many
years to come. Some Of the esti-
mates made by this company Of
newspaper men, as they appeared
in the Chicago Inter Ocean, togeth-
er with facts submitted, are inter
esting. The damage done to the
corn crop by the frosts in Septem-
Der is estimated at three per cent.
The corn crop this year is placed
at Is, 100000 bushels over that of
last year. The total increase Of
new wealth produced in the state
over that of last year is nearly
$27 100000. The bank deposits,
which are an index to the prosper
ity of the state, are as.follows:
July 1901 $14, 10000
!" 1902 30,OOO,OOO
!" 1908 $4,000, 900
For two years past not a dollar Of
eastern capital has been required
to move the large crops, showing
that the state is entirely self sup
porting. The following table is
presented by the pencil pushers as
a conservative estimate of the
wealth produced in 1908:

For genuine subterfuge and eva
sion we yield the palm to Bro.
Killion Of The Lesterville Ledger.
In reply to his charge three weeks
ago that baskerville grain dealers
pay from four to fTe cents per
bushel above those Of Scotland we
published the price list from his
own paper, showing that on that
week our dealers paid 1 cent per
bushel for No. 3 wheat more than
the Lesterville dealers. The fol-
lowing week he failed to correcs his
market report, although the Chsca.
go markets showed y falling of Of
about five cents per bushel. Then
last week be attempted to Justify
his statement by a comparisons Of
his price list then a week old, and
ours corrected up to date. Just to
show that the Ledger's market re-
ports are not to be relied upost we
quote from actual purchases lrede
on October 1st, the date ofspur
price list which ne quotes. While
our dealers we're paying 61 cents
for Mo- wheat, the records of D.
I'll. Dickson, who runs a houseSin
baskerville as we'll as at this pidce,
show that his house in LesterFille
paid only 60 cents for that grade,
or one cent below Scotland prices,
while the Ledger was quoting 67
cents. The Ledger Of the 9th
lsbows that the Lesterville ds gsars
land the Scotland dealers were pay
ing identically the same price for
I No. 3 wheat and for corn. We
quoted the Scotland market on
hard coal at $40 per ton. He re-
plies by saying that Lesterville
dealers sold coal for $40 a ton last
summer. A column and a half OF
space is devoted to just such sub
terfuge. In fact Bro. Killion re-
minds us Of Mark Twain's mule
he is an "amoosin cuss.''

formerly Of Paducah, was not identi-
fed. Justice Rudd held an inqu est
but the evidence failed to throw any
light ON the mans identity.
The body appeared to have been in
the water ten DAYS or longer. The
man was apparently about 23 years
old and wore patched overalls, patch.
ed laced.shoes and black socks and no
underclothes. His pockets contained
only two handFerchiefs and piece Of
tobacco.
A large wound in the back of the
head indicated that he had been shot
there, the bullet passing out the front,
aud his left hip bore evidences OF
having been shattered by two shots.
The man was evidently of Paducah,
as . piece Of paper found In his shoe
to keep the tacks from hurting his
feet bore the name "Psducsh, b;ing
the front page of some newspaper. 1t
is believed the deceased was laborer
on some steamboat. The verdict of
the coroner's jury was that the man
WAS victim of foul play.

Thirty-tWo Kenosha BARRIERS Ask State
For Right to Ply Their Trade in
This City.
REGISTRATION MADE VERY EASY.
Little Required of Men Now Working as
BARRIERS in State More Than Regis
tration Fee and Application.

| Thirty-two BARRIERS in Kenosha to-
day applied for a state license to ply
| their trade in, Kenosha and within an
other week the State BARRIERS license
will be as common in the shops of Ke-
nosha as the working cards of the re-
| tail clerks union in the dry goods
stores. It has been several weeks
since the legislature passed the law to
license BARRIERS but the BARRIERS have
been allowed to continue work pend
| ing the organization of the board of
state examiners and the issuing OF
the license blanks but by the 18th Of
August it is expected that every man
acting as a barber in the state will
have his license posted in the shop
where he is employed.
The licenses are now being issued
on very easy terms, and anyone re,
CARELESS of age, color or previous con-
dition of servitude can secure license
If he or she was working at the trade
on the first of this month. The regis
tration fee for the BARRIERS is one dol.
lar year, and pending the beginning
of examinations almost anyone who is
able to raise the dollar can get IL
cense.
After the 18th of August things will
be changed, and at that time the bar
bers will have to submit to an examin-
alton before the State Board of Elk
aminers and must prove to the Board
that they have been barbering for
three years, and that they are able to
give satisfactory evidence Of their
ability.
T. J. Burg was in Milwaukee Tues
day and brought back applica tons
enough to supply all the artisans in
Kenosha. Adolph ]. Burg, who is one
of the oldest BARRIERS in the city, had
the honor of making the first applica-
ton to the state board. The barber
business in Kenosha is rapidly becom.
ing one of the leading trades. There
are now fourteen of the tonsorial par
lors in the city, employing total of
thirty-two BARRIERS.
Most of the men employed are old
experienced BARRIERS, but a few of
them are beginners and the fact that
they are being licensed has caused
considerable dissatisfaction among
the men who have spent years in the
business. These men claim that the
beginners should be forced to take the
regular examination and show their
ability before they are granted the
regular state license.

! HAD A BLOODY FIGHT.
Herman Kemper Assaulted and Seriously
Injured by Harry Harrison.

Herman Kemper Assaulted and Seriously
Injured by Harry Harrison.
A bloody fight occurred yesterday
afternoon at the barn of z. G. Sim
mons, Jr., on Prairie avenue in which
Herman Kemper, who is employed as
driver by Mr.. Simmons, was serious
ly injured and as a result of which
Harry Harrison stranger in the city,
and his companion John Reed, spent
the night in the county Jail.
The fight occurred just after three
o'clock Tuesday afternoon and hoes
and pitchforks figured prominently in
the melee.
Harrison and his companion, ac-
cording to the story told by the police,
had gone to the barn to borrow money
of Kemper, and when the latter re.
fused to give it to them the two fellows
became abusive. Kemper repeatedly
ordered them off the premises, but the
men replied that they would go when
they got ready. Kemper, believing he
had the right to remove them from the
grounds of his employer, waded in and
is alleged to have landed pretty heav-
/ lily on Harrison's face. The latter
seized a garden hoe which was in the
barn and made for Kemper. The as
sault which followed left Kemper with
a great cash In his head and number
of bad bruises on his face.
Reed alleges that he took no part in
the fight but simply picked up pitch
fork to defend himself should he be at
tackled. AS soon as possible the police
were notified of the assault and Officer
Newhouse arrested both Harrison and
Reed and placed them in the county
Jail. Kemper was taken to the Office
of DR.. Ripley, who dressed the wounds
and he was able to appear in court
when the case was called this morning.
It is probable that Kemper will be
SCARED for life as result of the
battle.
In court this morning the men
pleaded not guilty to the charge and
Reed was discharged from custody
The case against Harrison was con
tinued until tomorrow morning and he
gave recognizance bord for his ap
pearance in court at that time. The
fight created quite little stir in the
neighborhood.
