Severe Loss.

InOm1S Pr1Ce, a FARMER nVlng seven
miles northeast of Leola, Mcpherson
county, lost fifty-five head Of cattle
in a somewhat unusual manner The
barn in which the animals We're kept
was rooted with straw, which it is
thought was set on fire by a spark
from the chimney of the dwelling
house, which stood near by.
Price did not discover the fire until
the flames had got under good head
way. He made a desperate effort to
rescue his stock and succeeded in
saving his horses and six head of
calves, but the fifty-five head of cat
tie persisted in the flames.
A New Cave.
Geo. BertscLY and Nj. J. Scanlon
returned from a trip on Squaw creek
where they r interested with Col

and N. q. Erwin in exploring a vapor
grotto Or cav which they declare is
of unusual attraction. They report
the work progressing favorably, hay-
ing reached a point in depth where
the air is coming out. The ascend
ing yapors contain a degree of heat
equal to exhausted steam and the
crystal formation in some of the cor
ridors is magnificent. The discover
ers are having some conflict with the
officers of the Black Hills forest re-
%servation regarding their title, which
they hope to straighten out.
All Paid.
Land Commissioner Bach reports
that every cent of interest due the
state on 1908 deferred payments has
been collected by the department.
When it is considered that this re-
quires the collection of interest on
over a million and a half dollars it
shows that the citizens of the state
are in a prosperous condition.
The annual breakup of the ice on
the Missouri river occurred on the
21st. The record of the river for six
ty years shows that the ice has gone
out more than half of the years the
latter part Of March.
A Good Time.
A large number of reservation Tn
dams will be at Rapid City to parti-
cipate in the festivities incident to

gage in sham battles with cowboys

pective visitors. 1t is expected that
the crowd this year will be larger
