 Miss Scott and Miss Barry were dared to dress up in the clothes of their brothers, and so arrayed make the round trip on the street cars to the mission and back. They reached the end of the line without detec- tion, and, missing the return car, started to walk sooner than wait the half hour.

 "Hold on, there, young fel1ers,'' said the policeman, upon which he was greeted with a perfect volley of giggles, which settled the case of the young women. Escorted by the policeman, they were marched a mile or more to the station and held there until the proper garments could be procured from their homes.
 Their explanation that they did not know there was any wrong in the prank satisfied the judge, who ad- vised them either to let boys clothes alone or stop giggling when they went masquerading.

Al Martins big revival of '"Ten Nights in .a Barroom" should prove something of a popular attraction at Polls tomorrow afternoon and even ing, for it has been having a marked success in the big cities. The reason of the continued popularity of the play Is the, simplicity and beauty of the story, combined with the lavish splen- dor that Mir Martin has given the pro duction., MT Martin has had a new vein of comedy interjected also as well as number of specialties that relieve the sometimes ,too intense pathos of tile tale, making the play more attrac- tive as a whole than when it was among the great popular successes of The American stage.

topresume that they have been reas-

results of their labor will become
visible. People who fail to realize
how tedious the preliminary work of

these gentlemen with pursuing adog-

should once more consult a copy of
the printed pledge given out to them

that there are names Of some Of the

On last Wednesday Harvey c..
Jewett was forty years old. He
has spent half his life in Aber-
deem. Twenty years ago he came
to Aberdeen with a capital of
about five hundred dollars, full
of pluck and energy, and to-day
he is at the head of the largest
and most successful wholesale
house in the state and can count
his wealth by the hundred thous-
ands. He was then a single man,
now he is the head of one of the
most interesting families in. the
city and living in one of the most
elegant homes in Aberdeen. No
city in the state has mis- superior
IN business ability and push.
What is more no city in the state
offers such advantages aud OPP
'portunities as does Aberdeen for
young men to parallel Mr.. jew

twenty years Of Aberdeen's future
will be as full of golden op-
portunities as the score of years
just past.

Twenty Second Birthday.

lWenty.SecOnd Birthday.
On the fourth day of August
this week occurred the twenty
second anniversary of 'sthe Oldest
newspaper in Brown Co." There
Is fiction prevailing in news
paperdom, and even having q
legal sanction, taat q newspaper
once put into being continues its
existence, however management
and name may change, as long at
continuous publication is main
tained. According to this theory
the authorized successor of a
newspaper is the same paper,
which being the case, although
the idea smacks strongly Of the
preposterous, The ABERDEEN
DEMOCRAT is the Oldest paper in
Brown county and traces its con-
tinuous existence back to a day
proceeding the issue Of any other
publication in this county.
The first copy of the Aberdeen
Pioneer was issued by D. c..

printed on a lress standing on
the ground in the rear of e. H.
Alleys -eed store, ground now
covered by The Ward. brakes
paper, Dakota Pioneer, was
printed on the same press, through
courtesy Of Mr.. Wadsworth, af-
ter the Other paper had been run
of. Wadsworth sold out to
Wheaton and jackson two weeks
later, who in turn sold out to
Nm. A. Morrill, Feb. %, 1882.
Under Morrill's Management the
name was changed to Republican.
January IS, 1883 Morrill, sold to
Spence & McChesney, who sold
to Henry S. Williams, now post
master Of Aberdeen, May 1, 1884.
The issue of FebruarJ 26, 1885,
contains Major Barret4's greeting
to the editorial fraternity and the
readers of the paper, Mr.. Will
dams retiring.
The next change in manage
ment occurred october 6, 1890,
when Major Barr TT leased the
paper to w. E. Kidd. The lease
later became a sale and the Re-
publican merged in the Star. On
the 18th of February 1898 Major
Barrett resumed charge of his old
plant and resurrected the old
name Pioneer, carrying the names
Star and Republican in sub-heaa.
On the following December the
Sentinel was consolidated With
the Pioneer and the name Pioneer
was adopted. Over
nine months ago these ancient
newspapers in their checkered
and shifting course Of
existence, appeared under the
ABERDEEN DEMOCRAT.
They Ire all of them the DEM
ocRAT and the DEMoccAT is ALL
there is left of them. To t
descends all tae glory of their
achievements and most of their
well-bound files. Through them
the DEMOCRAT is not only the
first paper in Aberdeen but the
first one published in Columbia.

A New Ruling on Sheep
 Inspection Fees.

The following letter from the secretary of the Live Stock Sani- tary Board, addressed to Mir. Cresswell, sets out new rule re- lating to the vexed sheep inspec- tion question, which will be of interest to the sheep owners of the territory:
 PHOENIX, Ariz., July 8, 1903. K. C. CREswELL, Esq,
 Winslow, Arizona. Dear Sir:
 The following rule has been promulgated by the chairman of the board, in pursuance of a unanimous vote of the board at a regular meeting held in Phoenix under date of July 7th, in which he was authorized to act for the board in the matter of adjusting the differences regarding the in- spection fee for sheep, as ex- pressed in communication from the Arizona Woolgrowers' Asso- citation under date of June 9th, and resolution forwarded by one E. $. Gosney, who signs himself as president and chair man of said Woolgrawers' Asso- citation and it's meeting, under date of July 3rd.
 It is ordered that in future, as in the past, all shipments of sheep, in common with other live stock, are subject to inspec- tion, as required in Paragraph 3OO1, R. s. A., 1901, and that the inspector making such in spection shall, before giving certificate of the same to the per son for whom the inspection is made, and before delivering the shipping permit to the transpor tation comprny or it's agent, col lect from the person in charge of said stock the sum of three fourths of a cent per head for all such sheep or goats so inspected. This rule will have no bearing in the matter ofpay ments they have already made under previous or der of the board, as that order remains in full force and effect until these instructions are in the hands of the inspector.
