MASHED A WASHER.

Last night young lady was pass
ing along the northeast corner OF
Broadway and Clark streets when
I. she was accostedl by a half baked
loafer who helped to make up a
crowd. This would-be masher
j doubtless considered his smirks and
language irresistible but he was
doomed to disappointment, for the
young lady went at him in true
pugilistic fashion, catch-as-catch-
can, Queensbury rules thrown to the
wind. The iasulted lady fought like
q tiger and the blood soon flowed
freely from her tor1nentor and he
yelled for mercy, at the same time
protesting his innocence. The lady
had her victim down and was pum-
melting him 'good and plenty"
when other Washers interfered and
released their comrade and he de-
parted. declaring he would have the
author of his sorrow arrested, but
as yet no papers have been served.
This was just retribution and the
Tribune hopes every puke who has
no more sense Of decency than to
stand around street corners IN make
indecent remarks about women will
get similar treatment. In Chicago
hat pins are used to scatter the
empty headed dolts who think they
must be rogues to be men.-Albert

last week Thursday evening. There

present, his mother being the Oldest
Baptist woman in the state.
The Minneapolis Times in speak
ing of the meeting and this old lady
says.
'Possibly it would be extravagant
to claim that the Baptist faith con-
ducive to longevity but the Baptist
state convention has served to
develop the fact that some of the
notable pioneer women of the state
belong to this denomination.
The mother of Rev. DR.. Frank
Peterson of this city is accounted

THE ALUMNI BANQUET.

The seventh annual banquet of
the Worthington High school
Alumni Association was held Satur-
day evening at the Maccabee hall.
The hall was beautifully decorated
in gold and white crepe paper in
honor of the 'OS class. Rocking
chairs, rugs and two electric fans
gave the hall a cozy appearance and
added greatly to the banqueters.
About forty five members of the
association and invited guests
gathered, spending the evening in
renewing acquaintance and welcom-
ing the new members. Delightful
music was rendered during the en-
tire evening by Messrs Oldham and
Edmonds of LeMars on the banjo
mandolin and harp-guitar::
About half past ten all sat down to
the long table which was decorated
in gold and white, candlebra and
white carnations. The supper was
served by ladies of the Episcopal
Guild and was bounteous one as

BRILLIANT RECORD OF "A NEWS
PAPER MAN. s

The success which has attended
William E. Curtis, the famous
correspondent of The Chicago Re-
cord Herald, is rarely attained by
newspaper writers. Beginning his
career in Chicago in 1872 as reporter
he rapidly rose to the position on
receiving a government appoint
ment as secretary Of the South
American commission. Mr.. Curtis
travelled extensively in Central and
South America, while in this posi-
ton, producing several popular
volumes as the result of his literary
labors. Afterward cooperating with
Secretary Of State James g. Blaine,
Mr.. Curtis organized the work of
the bureau of American republics,
with the result that he was placed
in charge of that organization, and
at the World g Columbian Exposition
he distinguished himself by his
labors as the executive head of the
Latin-American department.. As
correspondent of The Chicago Re-
cord Herald Mr.. Curtis travels have
carried him into every. section of
the United States as we'll as into all
quarters OF the globe. His China
and Japan letters were published in
book form; likewise his letters from
England, Germany and France, as
we'll as those written during his
travels in. Mexico and South
America.
No newspaper correspondent
possesses the facility shown by Mr..
Curtis in writing on any of the
diversified subjects embraced in his
correspondence and making it
luminous. Nor is any correspond
ent followed so closely year after
year by the thousands of readers of
The Chicago Record Herald. On his
recent trip to the Holy Land Mr..
Curtis letters have been read more
closely than ever, and his descrip-
tons of that interesting section of
the globe as it appears to-day have
been quoted everywhere.

AN ACT OF THE LEGISLATURE
TO ENCOURAGE TREE
PLANTING.

n Indiana has undertaken the work
of encouraging. tree planting and
forest cultivation in practical way.
1T is calculated that under the pro
vision of an act Of tho legislature
now in force, no less than half a
million trees will be planted in the
state during tho year. T..
These trees are to be planted
under the supervisor Of the state
forester, who is empowered to
purchase a state reservations Of 1900
acres, to be planted in hard wood
timber. @'<<- -. ,.1s -
But the greatest progress in the
work of refosteration will very likely
be made by private effort, since it
win be to the decided advantage of
large and small land owners
to set aside portions of their hold
ings Of the raising Of trees.
Under the law notsto exceed one
eighth of the total aree Of the land
owned shall be appraised for taxation
at 81 an acre if it is set aside as a
permanent forest reservation. The
majority of farmers own. lands
which they could well afford to
plant in trees with the assurance
that they will not only make a saw
ing. In the taxes, but that in the
course Of q few years they will have
a crop which will yield large returns
on the investment. The difference
between the Indiana plan and that
generally pursued is that the former
appeals to the selfish side of human
nature rather than to the sentiment

Mitchell, South Dakota, Sept. 3d.
The South Dakota idea this year Is to
emphasize the riches OF thir state
When It is confidently stated that this
year for the sixth consecutive year
South Dakota win lead ali other states
in the greatest per capita wealth, It
can readily be understood why South
Dakota is ambitious to advertise its
crops and resources.
The report OF fortnight ago regard
Ing the heavy fall Of snow and dam
age done TO the crops by frost, now
appears to have been a false alarm.
This is the Judgment of a party Of
newspaper men and representatives of
the Chicago, Milwaukee q St. Paul Ry.
who have made trip OF more than
l,2O0 miles through the state during
the last ten days. The greatest esti-
mate OF damage that Is now made by
those In position to know Is, three
per cent damage TO corn crop of the
state. In the rich agricultural section,
In the valley Of the Missouri River,
crops appear to splendid advantage.
Occasionally one finds fields where
there has been perhaps too much wa
ter and the crops are somewhat late,
but this 10 the exception.
The following is conservative esti-
mate OF the products of the state and
their value for 1908:
