Locals OF a
Wider Nature.

Probably no boom town in the west held the atten-
ton of the public more than did Fairbank in the early
eighties, situated on the east bank Of the Missouri river,
midway between Pierre and Forest City. Its promoters
engaged a ~frstclass newspaper man, L. b. Miller, to get
out a boom weekly, thousands Of copies of each issue be-
ing sent over the west. The Northwestern Railways
maps showed a railroad line from Redfeld to the new
business houses and residences went aa Had the rail
road been extended in The town would no doubt have
continued to boom, but a higher power than placed the
line on the map actually placed the roadbed from Red
field through FauIkton on west to Gettysburg. That
killed Fairbank. The editor Of the towns boom paper
moved to Pierre and became postmaster under Grover
Cleveland. Fairbank is still on the map as a p~ostoHice.
The general impression, By the well informed even,
that offering of large rewards viii cause the detective
agencies to ferret outmysterious crimes is a mistake.
The agencies must have per diem and expenses, but will
deduct this from the reward II successful. =-A
Thus the offering Of the large reward for Todd's
murderer has not brought expert detectives in the field.
Clues that might lead to results cannot be followed up
because the expense would be more than an individual
could bear. An effort will be made to have the commits
sloners advance or assure expense money lie following
up clues that appear worthy OF Investigation. The far,
mers fear that delay may inspire the Johnson-Iodd MUIR
derers toagain commit a similar crime-if not on the east
side in some other part Of the county, or in some neigh
boring county.

the legs have very little to do with the

danse du ventre the legs are more near

to assist In producing the extraordi-

the hips In which so much of the dance
consists.

The readiness with which the Rus

evidence of French sympathy and d
belief in the certainty of Russia's
eventual success.

bankers say that no portion of the loan

Coral. Of Oar own Coast.

1t Is n common notion that corals
grow only In tropical and subtropical
waters and that no coral reefs are to
be found along our W familiar
coasts. AS a matter Of fact. coral
formations stretch all along the Allan.
tic coast Of the United States. although
the reefs do not rise SO high that they
project from the water. Some of the
most beautiful OF the living coral In
the New York aquarium vas dredged
up from the Atlantic ocean almost
within sight cs the city of New York.
and there are many coral patches still
closer to the shores. Generally the
northern coral Is 10Y white. although
sometimes 1t has a delicate brown tint.
Pink coral Is found occasionally. but 1t
Is rare.

Round and about London and its
ever extending suburbs there may still
be seen inns and tayerns of great age
and interesting associations.
The Angel inn, Highgate It'll. dates
back to the time of the reformation.
Originally 1t was called the Salutation
inn. 1t Is built entirely of wood.
Another famous inn is the Bald Faced
Stag at Edgware. Nobody knows when
1t was originally built, and 1t would
seem rs though each successive propri-
etor has e~ndeavored to place his mark
on Its architectural aspect. for many
parts of it have evidently at different
times been rebuilt. In the stables. 1t
Is alleged, Dick Turpin had his horses
shoes turned. so as to make his pursu-
ers imagine lie had gone in an opposite
direction.
Among the very Oldest of suburban
London inns are the Plough, at Kings
bury Green. and the King James and
Tinker inn. at Enfield. The first Is said
to be $50 years old. and the latter was
reputed to have been first built as an
Inn and under another name 992 years
ago.
Its present name is derived from an
encounter which King James I. is said
to have had with q tinker at the door
Of the inn. The tinker's conversation

Jewish religion. retired TO mourning

II. Friedenberg. Of Bradford. Pa.
The period Of religious mourning ex.

and just at that hour bird as large
rs a sparrow ana as black as night
flew out Of the gas crate. which was
burning, and alighted at Mrs. Davis's
feet. Both women tried to scare the
bird away by waving their hands ut

Mrs. Davis. who had been grief

husband, to whom she had been mar.

once. She tells her friends that 1t bore
message direct from God telling her
that she should be comforted and that
all would be well. An examination Of
the chimney showed that the bird must
have come down the hot chimney
through n hole about an inch square.
Small blackbirds are foreign to these
