SPRING ROUNDUP.
Gathering at Fort Pierre for Annual
Function.

Fort Pierre is in annual excitement
over the gathering Of range riders to1
the start on the annual spring roundup
for branding the spring crop OF calves
anG locating the herds Of the different
owners on some particular range.
What gives it more than usual i'm
portance Is that this will probably be
the last range roundup in eastern Stan
lev county. The new settlers and
fences being the doom OF the range
roundup, last year ended that manner
of range work for Lyman county, the
wagons not working the eastern part
! Of that county this spring, and Stanley
will be in the same shape next year.
The creamery and cheese factory,
with reports of crop acreage and CON
diti0n of wheat and corn, now fills the
papers Of the older settled portion OF
the range. instead Of the old matters
Of the range feed, condition of stock
and roundup progress.
It is the passing Of the old days n
the coming of the new to western
South DakotG, and while milking COWS
and following a pillow is not so pictur,
| esQue nor so exciting a life as that OF
the old free range. the time has come
for the change and the milk cow and
/ uiOw horse is to take the place OF the
steer and brcncho.
When horse raisers began to locate
their horses with the coming u spring
many were reported missing, II the
Indications now lead to the conclusion
that systematic horsestealing has been
going on through the winter when the
horses were allowed to run at large
and many SuIly county horse owners
are losers. That kind Of work has
been rare since the breaking up OF the
gang which worked through this sec
ton five years ago, but it has started
again, and several suspects are being
closely watched.

L-iuht Turned On.

A great deal Of misunderstood school
law was untangled in the discussions
at the recent state convention of coun-
ty superintendent and school profess
sors in Canton. Among the matters of
law commonly misunderstood that
were corrected a that in relation to
boards of directors purchasing school
supplies and school furniture. It has
been the general understanding that
school officers were authorized to pur.
chase up to the limit Of $40, but the
discussions disclosed the fact that they
are not authorized to lay out a single
dollar for such purposes without a vote
Of the district.
One Of the most seriously misunder.
stood school laws on the statutes Is
that regulating the change of boundary
lines Of school districts. The law on
this subject has always been indef
ute, one OF its provisions being that
a vote on such change may be ordered
upon the presentation Of a petition
signed by ten legal voters in the dis.
tricts. The practice has been to order
these selections at the request Of only
ten legal voters in all the districts
while the convention discovered thai
ten signers from every interested dis
trict are required.

HORSE THE +.
indian Is Held to the United States
Court.

court.
David Horse Ring was brought be-
fore United States Commissioner It'd
rick in Chamberlain by Deputy United
States Marshal Petrie, charged with
horse stealing. and was held to answer
to- the next United States grand jury.
The evidence introduced at the trial
was of more than usual interest.
Horse Ring is a young Rosebud In
dian, nineteen years of age. He con
ceived the idea that he was destined
to become a very, very bad man. Con
seQuently when the spirit had sufi-
GENTLY moved him he acquired a for
midable array of instruments of war
fare, sailed forth and confscated a
horse, and then announced that the
world was at his feet. Letters in his
possession showed that he had a part
ner whom he intended to join, and
with whom all the details Of the cam
paisn had been agreed upon. Even a
plat, showing a trail from the Bad
Lands to Montana, was found, and &C.
c~Cmpanying data showed that the trail
was to be literally irrigated with the
blood of the white man, who, it was
declared, vas the legitimate prey of
the red man. The plans and specifca
tons also included stage holdups and
ali other features Of a strenuous life.
Everything was provided for but the
| vigilance of the Indian police. These
Individuals soon learned of the theft
of the horse and a vigorous pursuit
was at once inaugurated. The pursuit
became so hot that the disciple OF
Jesse James was soon compelled tc
abandon his horse and take to the
hills. He secured another horse short
lily after and made his way to the Low
er Brule reservation, where the Indian
police soon ran him to earth and
turned him over to the United States
authorities.
At the trial he still assumed all the
attitudes of the bold avenger, but the
earnest meditatiions which are likely
to accompany a prolonged stay In the
Bruel county bastile may develop {
different frame of mind.

Vigorous Growth.

The weather during the week aver

barley, speltz, rye, and grass have
made vigorous and healthy growth,
and early sown grains are stooling

generally affords good pasturage, and
the condition of range live stock is
steadily improving. Notwithstanding
the windy weather, and some delay in
the extreme southeastern counties due
to heavy rains, corn planting has, on
the whole, progressed well and is now
becoming general. Early corn in the
southeastern counties is coming up

Potato planting has progressed fav-

sowing Of these crops is in progress.

'' Such a Noise '

The mother says to herself sometimes. VI cen hardly endure it." Then a chill creeps over her as she thinks of the aw- ful silence which falls upon the home when children are taken away. and she Is glad her children are hardy of body and lusty of lungs
 When a child does not enjoy noisy sports and games there is something wrong, and that something will often be found to be lack of nutrition adequate to the needs of youth and growth. The stomach is vweak," digestion is inper- feet, and so the nourishment of the body is inadequate.
 In such cases Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery works wonders. It changes punv, fretful children into healthy, happy girls and boys. The process by which this change is ac- complished is strictly along the lines marked by Nature All growth and strength come from food when it has been digested, converted into nutrition and assinlilated 0Golden Medical Dis covery" cures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutri- ton, and so enables the body to obtain without loss or waste the benefit of the nutrition provided ill food.

Tendency of the Times.

The tendency of medical science Is toward preventive measures. The best thought of the world is being given to the subject. It is easier and better to prevent than to, cure. It has been fully demonstrated that pneumonia. one Of the most dangerous diseases that medical men have to contend with can be prevented by the use of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always results from cold or from an attack of influenza tgrip). and it has been observed that this remedy counteracts any tendency of these diseases toward pneumonia. This has been fully proven in many thousands of cases in which this remedy has been used during the great prevalence Of colds and grip in recent years, and can be relied upon with implicit con fdence. Pneumonia often results from a slight cold when no danger is apprehendcd until it is suddenly discovered that there is fever and diff culty il breathing and pans in the chest; then it is announced that the patient has pneumonia. Be on the safe side and take Chamberlain's Cough Remedy Gs soon as the cold is contracted. For sale at ketcherSide's drug store.
