passing by and asked his opinion as to
which was the only church in which
to be saved. "Well, neighbors," said
he, ''son and I have been hauling

the other takes over the hill. Some

South Dakota building at the Worlds
Fair Grounds, writes us that the

were compelled to close the doors.
The crowds were amazed at the grain
decorations and South Dakota stock
rose considerably.
