A Very Strange Acct dent.

A very unusual accident happened
to one Of Frank Abernathy's horses
last Friday. He was starting after a
load Of rack south of town. When he
was just opposite the city pump house
and while the horse was walking along
quietly his front leg suddenly broke.
There was no load on the wagon and
the horse did not even stumble. So
far as any one could see there was no
cause for the accident. Mr.. Aberna-
thy decided that the most human
thing to be done was to kill the horse
and accordingly had him shot. The
horse was valuable one and is quite
loss to the owner. Downs News.

There is discussion In the
papers about a new capitol
building at Pierre AS the
people are disgusted with
capital contests, they will
certainly approve of theidea
of starting a large state
house at once as a means of
settling the question for all
time. The wise plan after
driving a nail in is to clinch
it. Those who during the
campaign claimed the pres
ent building unsafe will not
oppose a new one, so the
proposition wonld seem to
be without opposition

Joel Haskins says that
the melt in a hog is a wea-
ther prophet of great accu-
racy. If it is thick the win
ter will be very cold, but if
it is thin the winter will be
mild. A hog just butchered
by Mr. Haskins contained a
melt as thin as a waveY. He
has never known this sign
to fail for 80 years. The
melt is found close to the
hogs liver, and looks like

Mitehelrs friends say that
the capital fight made money
for the two towns because of
the excursions, the visitors
spending so much The
writer was at Pierre and
while it was necessary to
spend some money, yet the
people there made it a point
to almost entertain the Wis
itors free. This applied to
all classes. While not at
Mitchell, yet we are told by
a gentleman who was there,
that it took money there to
visit. Doughnuts, mostly
hole, the rim hardly suffi-
clent to cast a shadow, 4Oc
a dozen with an hours wait
at the counter. Sandwiches
mostly wait at 15c each.
Lodging was stand up at
Soc or sit down for 81. If
| it made the town money it
made the people mad. The
Milwaukee road also played
a stingy trick ON 300 excur-
sionists whom it dumped off
1.-THE train at Wolsey because
| the ears were full from floor
to ceiling and a mutiny
threatened by the smother
ing crowd. They were put
off with the promise that
another train would soon be
along and take them. But
as their train started the
conductor shouted back:
mo more trains tonight"
The 800 were now in for a
night in Wolsey. They
spent a sleepless night and
a hungry one In the town,
for accommodations for
them was out of the ques-
tion. The 4Oc doughnuts in
Mitchell the next day with
lodgment on the banisters
had a tendency to make
them cry out, what is
home without s bed" A
town had better be broke
than boast of coming out
even by treating visitors
so shabby.
