The dark markings on the surface are
likened by the Chinese to a monkey

to resemble a rabbit. To the Persians
they seem like the earth's oceans and

Death Of Richard Malov.

~*A -
Richard Maloy died ct his home, six
miles southeast of the city, Saturday
morning, Oct. is, at 9:30 o'clock. Some
nine months ago he was injured In the
stomach by COW that he was trying
to separate from her calf and this in
jury is supposed to have given rise to
the cancerous growth that caused his
death.
Richard Maloy was born of Irish and
English parents, eight miles from the
city Of Dublin, Ireland, Oct. IL, 1889,
consequently had just completed his
sixty ffth year. He came to the Unit
ed States when he was nineteen and
worked on farm In Illinois. Later he
went south and at the outbreak Of the
war of the rebellion he joined the Con-
federate forces under General Lee and
with him fought In all the famous bat
ties OF that bloody war. He always be.
lieyed that acuteness and depth Of
Judgment and soundness OF generalship
were not the sole qualifications of that
great man. He was always demo
crat Of the southern type and spoke Of
ten with feeling OF the hospitality and
friendliness OF the southern people.
After the war he accepted the situa-
tion, moved to Joliet, ILL.,, and later to
Iowa. Tn 1868 he came to Sioux CITY
and had charge of the track laying OF
the y. F. railway from Missouri Val
ley TO Sioux City for John I. Blair In
November, 1868, he married Miss Mary
Dyer and resided III Sioux City until
1872. That year, when the Milwaukee
railway extended It's line from Sioux
City to Yankton, he was foreman Of.
the track-laying gangs. After the com
pletion Of the railway be settled on a
farm six miles southeast Of this city.
which was his home up to the time 81
his death.
His first wife died Id May, 1878, and
two years afterwards he married Miss
Margaret Tracy who survives him.

The COURIER received the other
day proposition from prominent
Sioux City dry goods establishment for
full double column advertisement to
run for three months. We decline
every year not less than 300 worth OF
advertising from Sioux City alone and
coming TO US entirely unsolicited.
Sioux City dealers are not spending
their money advertising In this terris
| tory for the fun Of the thing or for the
sake of keeping the local newspapers
alive. They know the value and nec-
essity Of publicity and where to go to
get it. The COURIER has always pur-
sued the uniform policy OF loyalty to
home merchants and home interests,
often at financial lOss both at home
and abroad. AS rule this policy has
been recognized and appreciated by
our local dealers, although there are
occasional and glaring exceptions. II
these back-number dealers could once
be made to realize the quantity OF
trade In their line that goes to Sioux
City or to mail order houses from this
community, attracted very largely by
the liberal use Of printers Ink, they
would be less inclined to pass By thelo-
cal printer than many of them now are.
Nothing is lost in the long run by .
liberal and loyal devotion to home in
terests and no other course will build
up town or community permanently
and satisfactorily In the fierce compe-
tition OF the present day. Elk Point
has suffered greatly In days gone by
from this narrow and short sighted
view, but there are many Indications
that day Of better things Is already
well under way.

A LAUGHING GAME.

How n ROO1fuI Of Girls and Boys
May Have n jolly Time.
This is one of the jolliest impromptu
games that we know of. We mean by
inpromptu that it requires no prepa-
ration whatever, but may be played
by roomful of boys and girls the mo-
ment it is suggested. And it is brim-
full of fun from start to finish.
Any number of players may take
part in 1t. They first select leader,
who should be a bright, alert, quick
witted boy who is capable of preserv-
ing his self possession while fun and
laughter are going on all around him.
The players seat themselves in n cir
Gle, and the leader takes his place in
white handkerchief. which he has knot
ted so as to make it partly solid.
When everything is ready the leader
tcsses the andkerchief up in the air,
and then every player must begin
laughing. But they must all stop laugh
ing by the time the handkerchief reach
es the floor, and If any one does not
stop and the leader catches him either
laughing or smiling he imposes a for
felt or fine.
Or instead OF making the detected
laugher pay n forfeit he may be re
quired to drop out of the circle. If
played in this way the players drop
out one after another until only one is
left, and that one wins the prize.

Move the card about rapidly in all di-

coin through the hole; then hold the
card still and shut one eye; then open
that and shut the other. If you are
right eyed you will see the coin only
when the right eye is open; If you are
left eyed you will see it only when the
left eye is open. This test will not
succeed if you move the card very
slowly, for unless you are nearly blind
in one eye you will see the coin when
the hole is in line with it and either
eye, but when you move the card
quickly you catch the rapid glimpse of
the coin with your favorite eye, so to
speak, but not with the other one.

This habitual neglect of one eye is so

Aside from his own books of poetry,
Mr.. Stedman has given us "a Victo-

required the most active research and
which demonstrated his untiring devo-

clude victorian Poets,' Poets of
America" and 1.-The Nature and Ele-
mentS of Poetry" the latter written in
1892. His latest work, The History
of Wall Street" is one for which he
was peculiarly fitted.
MIR. Stedman is Il native of Connect
cut, was educated at Yale and after
leaving college was for n time on the
New York Tribune. Later he joined
the editorial staff of the New York
World and went to the front as its war
correspondent, gaining reputation for
his reports of the battle of Bull Run
