Registering for the Rosebud Lands.

Registering for the Rosebud Lands.
A trip to one OF the registry points
| for the Rosebud reservation lands is
to most OF those that have gone, worth
the cost as an experience. The degree
OF excitement which attends the trip
depends somewhat on the disposition
of the traveller. The Slid is off" in
Yankton and Bonesteel at least and
one who is willing to play and able to
pay can get game of most any kind,
with the per cent largely in favor of
the fellow who let's you guess. At
Yankton the gambling is not forced
obnoxiously upon those who are not
inclined to view it passively. The
police protection appears ample and
there is no complaint of ''hold-ups"
for necessities. Meals and lodging
are obtained at reasonable prices and
fairly good in quality. The American
instinct to make penny is manifest
all along the route and at every sta
ton the landseeker has plenty of OPP
portunities to satisfy his hunger or
quench his thirst. The comfort of
those who get in line to register is
looked after-fOr a consideration
by small army of men and boys.
You can have a chair, or an umbrella,
sandwich or piece of pie, a cigar
or small cold bottle, at reason
able price. The government clerks
are speedy and you have your certifi-
cate in short order when you reach
them. At Yankton they claim to han
die eight applicants per minute which
claim you will be willing to vouch for
when you are registered. Everyone
is in a good humor unless you try to
get ahead at the expense of someone
else-that trick usually results in a
set back at the hands of the police,
though occasionally good bluff or a
quick move puts the "sooner" into
the registration Office in advance of
his regular turn.
Ladies get thepreference and are not
compelled to stand in line.
The railroads are handling the
crowds in good shape and put enough
coaches into their trains to give seats
to all.
To go through the crowds one gets
the impression that there is not so
many farmers there though quite a
per cent of the younger applicants for
registration are boys from the farm
or who were so raised and are taking
a chance with a view of settling if
they draw a good quarter. Another
class are those who 60 without much
idea of what they would do with a
farm if they would get one. The fell
low who wants to be among the first to
get a pick and let loose-if he can
to bona tide settler for cash in hand
is we'll represented. Taking 40 to l
chance isn't a very good betting propo-
sition, but then someone will win and
there are numerous people who think
they will be one of the lucky ones.

Harry G. Thornton Dead.

Harry G. Thornton, formerly a resi-
dent of Frankfort and from 1891 to 1896
of Wildwood, N. j., died at Pasadena,
California, on Thursday, February Is,
1904. For the past fifteen years he had
been a sufferer from a rheumatic affee-
ton which gradually rendered him
helpless. In 1896 he went with a sister,
Mrs. J. S. Quimby, to reside in Califor-
mia, hoping that a change of climate
would prove beneficial. He is remem-
bered in Wildwood as the popular clerk
at Hotel Dayton during the years 1892,
1913, and '94. The interment took place
at Pasadena, February Goth.

ed as a major general under Lieutenant
General ~Yamaguchi, who commanded
the Japanese troops. General Terauchi
is ffty-eight years old, is known as an
able tactician and was made minister
of war in March of last year.
General Terauchi is regarded as one
of the best informed military authori-
ties in the empire, and to him is due
much of the credit of recognizing the
army according to western methods.
After the close of the war with China
he advocated and brought about the
splitting up of the army into twelve
divisions instead of six, thus making
He was active also in promoting the
establishment of the japanese Red
Cross society, which now numbers $685.
179, of whom 1920 are life members.
Since becoming the head of the war
department General Terauchi has kept
in close touch with all European i'm
provements in military equipment and
man killing devices. AS a consequence
military experts agree that no army to-
day is better prepared for a conflict
than that over which he holds sway.
Like his prospective antagonist, Gen
eral Kuropatkin, the cars minister of
war, Terauehi is no carpet knight, but
has come by his military knowledge by
long service in the field. Should the
czar and the mikado lock horns over
the eastern question these two men
will be called upon to display their
highest skill; but not until actually
pitted against each other can their re-
spective abilities be determined.

LIEUTENANT GENERAL A. R.
airy. From that day to the present
his record shows a steady progress
that has finally brought him to the top.
He fought with distinction during
the civil war, being several times
wounded, reaching the rank of lieuten-
ant in 1868. He was several times
brevetted for gallantry and in 1867 be-
came a captain. Promotions were
slow after the close of the civil war,
and when the Spanish-Ameriean war
began Chaffee was a lieutenant colonel.
Before the close of the year., however,
he was a major general of volunteers.
AT Eel Caney, where he earned his
picturesque sobriquet of ''the man in
shirt sleeves" General Chaffee recon
noitered for himself instead of leaving
this work to his scouts and made him
self so well acquainted with the dis
position of the enemy that his attack
carried all before it.
A member of the staff of the Spanish
General Vara del Rey said of the
charge, 81 have never seen anything to
equal the courage of those Americans,
who, stripped to the waist and led by
the man in shirt sleeves, offered their
naked breasts to our murderous fire"
Although General Chaffee had attain
ed fame chiefly as a hard fighter, his
abilities as an executive officer led to
his selection to command the American
forces in China. For his services in
China he was made a major general in
the regular service and placed in COM
mand of the army in the Philippines.
He was subsequently ordered home and
made commander of the department of
the east, with headquarters at Govern
ors island, New York. A few months
ago he went to Washington as assist
ant to Lieutenant General Young, whom
he has now succeeded as chief of staff
of the army. General Chaffee will re-
tire April II, 1906.
