Story of a Missionary.

A capital story has been told By
an American missionary who has just
arrived in London from Korea. The
difficulty in learning the language of
that country is increased enormously
owing to the large number of words
which, with a slight infection of the
voice, are used over and over again
with an entirely different meaning.
The missionary in question was
preaching to some natives, and assur-
ing them that unless they repented
they would go to a place of punish
ment. Amusement rather than terror
was written on the faces of his ORR
entail listeners. Why on earth, If
they rejected, his advice and refused
to repent, should they be dispatched
to the local postoffice! On another
occasion lecture was delivered, in
was being drawn from the gay ca
reer of the tiny butterfly which was
suddenly cut short in the clutches of
the spider. The smile, however fell
somewhat short of its intended mean
ing, ans It was not until the laughter
had subsidized that the lecturer be-
came aware that the victim which
had been floundering amid the dainty
silken threads of the web was a
donkey, which in the Korean language,
It appears, is synonymous with butter
fly.

wealth has been discovered in the ter

Floral Tassels.

The most effective tassels of the

employed, but carnations are much in
vogue and are very fanciful and pref.

every respect. The stem is carried
out in twisted silk cord, while green
silk embroidery forms the calyx and
the petals are of chiffon with button
hole edges.

T. A. Berry and his brother, CARE
of Chamberlain, were up In HYDE
county last week looking over a pros
pectiye sheep ranch. Clare owns a
claim there and Tom has bought a
REIMBURSEMENT adjoining. They are
about forty miles east OF Pierre. There
is unlimited free range there, the boys
say, no settlers within five miles on
either side and the owners OF the land
do not care enough about it to lease IL
for range purposes or anything else.
So every body turns their stock out to
run where they will. The boys ex-
pect to go up early in Apri! and put
up a house and other buildings and
this fall get 1900 sheep from Montana.

official Paper Of the City and County

We plucked this briny tear from
the cheek Of the Arlington Sun.
Pierre has been libeled SO villain
OuSly by the Mitchell Press Bureau
that u readers may be int crested in
. true pen picture of the capital city.
II the Sun can lie SO numerically
about the Mitchell press bureau, how
IN blazes 1t can draw a true pen pic
ture of any place or anything is more
than We know. 1t could put in its
time to better advantage proving its
statement on the first proposition and
letting the other slide. Has the
Mitchell press bureau had a deroga-
tory word to say of Pierre as a city, as
a town or as a place Of residence?
Can the Sun quote a time in which
the Mitchell press bureau has libelled
a single institution in Pierre, its pub
lie utilities or its people, individually
or collectively? 1 guess not. The
fault of Pierre is in its location
not Of its people or its town. II crit
1c1sm there are of its environments,
that is not the sin of Pierre but of
difficulties the Almighty created.
Really, the charm Of Pierre is accent
uated after the Misunderstanding rail-
road journey to get there, and the oasis
OF goodfellowship encountered is en-
HANGED in contemplation OF the
dreary ride back again. The wish is
father to the thought with the Sun
that's all. In common with others
up in the air gasping for a reasonable
reason for leaving the capital one
hundred and eight miles west Of the
center of population, there is a hope
that in some way or other enough
sympathy may be cultivated for Pierre
to take the place of the merits as a
location for a capital that it does not
possess-even though it be necessary
to "give false witness against thy
%neighbor'' to accomplish it.

That some of those fellows who say
that the newspapers always brag up
every show that comes to town any,
way, because the editor gets compli-
mentary tickets, ought to read Clate

ing to Clate they didn't commit burg
lary.b highway robbery, giving a
ten-cent show and charging seventy
five cents for it. If Clate OF Dad o.

What broke the managers heart
so he wrote back here-was that the
GRAPHIC would scald his show after
he had paid it good hard cash for adj
vertising. Well, we paid good hard
work for our tickets, too. But we did
not mind that so much as to see
people whose money came perhaps a
little harder held up at Is cents per.
and to think the advertising columns
of the GRAPHIC were perfected to
that use.
The Milwaukee railroad is going to
cross the Missouri. That is a settled
fact. Furthermore, it is the only
settled fact in regard to railroad
building west of the Missouri. No
other line has even contemplated the
move, according to the best informa-
ton available. Not a prominent rail-
road official has even intimated as
much. This much the GRAPHIC
knows. 1t is all that it pretends to
Know. Just when the Milwaukee
will make the move is known only to
those too high in authority to let it
leak. The matter OF catching a state
capital is too small potatoes to start
an enterprise that means millions.
Other things will have to be ripe first
though the placing of the capital
at Mitchell will undoubtedly make
certain extensions otherwise in doubt.
This is not otficial-but there is lots
OF sense to it.
