co-EDs MAY MAKE UP.
East Hall Girls Givea Party and Down
Town Girls Come.

Vermillion, s. D., Feb. 12.-one of
the most pleasant social events at the
young ladies' dormitory at the univer-
sity this year was the party given in
the parlors OF East l.all last evening.
ABOUT l25 guests We're present to do
honor to the opening function of the
second semester, and to show appre-
citation of the hospitality of the young
ladies of the hall. 1t was an invitation
affair, and there We're few but that re-.
sponded and enjoyed the excellent pro-
gram of entertainment, which consist
ed or dancing, music, ping pong, other
games, social chat, etc. Light refresh
ments We're served during the even
ing, and the party broke up with the
best of feeling and good cheer.
1t now seems altogether likely that
the co-eds of East hall and those resid-
Ing in the city are in fair way to.
make up" For the past four months
there has been dissension in the ranks,
the exact cause never having been fully
explained. The heretofore peaceful re-
lations between the downtown and
East hall young lady students were
strained at the beginning of the first
semester in September, and up to this
week the breach has widened instead
of becoming closed. The party last
evening is sure to have its good effects;
and will do more than anything else
to draw the young ladies tstogether
again.

other cities for the purpose of organiz-
ing the work.

taken among the socialists of the state

teeman to represent South Dakota on

suited in the selection of Samuel Loyett

sEvEN-FooT. VEIN OF COAL.
Find Near Trent Sets Local Capitalists
Thinkinq.

FIandreau, S. D., Feb. I1.-While
drilling for an artesian well at Trent a
short, time ago the drill went through a
seven-foot vein of soft coal at depth
of 325 feet. Parties of this county have
already commenced to talk Of forming
a company to develop these mines. If
this vein Of coal can be worked it will
solve the fuel question ofthis part of
the state and may be the means of in
ducing manufacturers to come here
There have been number Of parties
visit this section Of the state for the
purpose of ascertaining the advisable
ity of engaging in manufacturing, but
have all keen discouraged on account OF
the high freight rates on fuel; but If
this coal mine can be worked there is
no reason why we should not have a
number of small manufacturing estab.
lishments at this place.

STARTS RACE WAR.
Whipping Of Negroes Starts Trouble at
Eaxette Mo. 800 i.sg.l..

ayOesSS tuSs Y
Fayette, Mo-, Feb. PA race war has
been started here, the result of the public
whipping of three negroes on the court
house steps. Two were women. Since
then it is said twenty-five negro families
have been frightened into leaving this
vicinity.
The recent killing Of Harry O'Donnell,
reputable citizen, was charged to negroes.
The whites have openly threatened to bat
tie with negroes and drive them from
Fayette. G
The one man whipped Friday night
made desperate resistance. 1t took sew
eral men to carry him to the post. When
the ordeal was ended the negro was SO
weak from loss of blood that he was put
to bed instead of being driven from town.
The women, who were not whipped se-
verely, were taken to the outskirts and
told to go.
A white man who has been fraternizing
with the negroes has barricaded himself
in his house and refuses to leave. He
threatens to shoot any one who attempts
to molest him.
Both sides are determined and armed
