OBITUARY.

Charleton S. g. Fuller was born
at Bath, England, June 20, lS47.
When at the age Of two years be was
brought to this country by his par
ents, who made the family home at
Skaneateles, N. Y, and about two
years later moved to Syracuse, in the
same state. With the exception of
the time spent in obtaining an edu.
cation at a college in Montreal, Can
ada, Syracuse was the home of MIR.
Fuller until he reached about the
twentieth year. He then located in
Chicago and began his career in the
hardware business.
At the age of twenty.one he was
married the first time. The wife liv-
ed eight years.
In 1879 Nh. Fuller came west and
located at Brookings, associating him
self with A. j. Dox and engaging in
the hardware business. In the
spring of 1880 he came to De Smet
and established a business III the
same line, retaining his interest
at the former place for a year or
more. He then closed affairs at
Brookings and from that time until
his death on the 22nd. inst devoted
his entire time to his large business
interests in this city.
La 1883 he was married to Miss
Chloe Dow. From this union there
we're born four sons, Robert, Claude,
Charleton, and Jack. The third son
died at the age of three years, leav.
ing the wife and three sons to sur
vive him.
AS a business man Mr.. Fuller was
successful far beyond the ordinary.
Strict attention to business was the
rule of his life, and it might be said
that il was the cause of his death,
as his demise was more the result of
the breaking down of the nerve sys-
tenn. He had taken a prominent
part of the upbuilding of the city,
and in all was a man who will be
greatly missed from our business
circle.
In social circles be had always
held a prominent place. He was
a member of the Masonic fraternity
and of the A. O. u. w, as we'll as
the societies auxiliary thereto. In
the former be had held an office for
the greater part of the time since
the institution of the local lodge,
and at the time of his death was serv-
ing the tenth consecutive year as
secretary. His death makes vacant
in business and social circles a place
that will be hard to fill.
The funeral was held Sunday at.
ternoon at Couse's Hall and was
attended by hundreds of friends and
acquaintances. The various orders
mentioned above marched in a body
to the family home aud escorted the
remains to the hall and from there to
their last resting place. Masons from
all over the county were present TO
pay their last respects TO an esteem
ed brother. The Masonic order had
charge Of the services, which were
conducted by M. q. Carlisle, of
Brookings, acting as Grand Master.
A short sermon was preached by
Rev Starring, of Huron. The remains
were placed in the De Smet ceme-
terry.
To the wife. three sons, and the
aged mother the deepest sympathy
of the entire community is extended

Riding to Death.

An automobile enthusiast riding at
the rate of mile a minute. or even
faster, has succeeded in killing him
self and his machinist. OF course,
much sympathy is excited by the in
eident. There is only the negative
satisfaction Of knowing that the Gull
pable were the victims and that no
innocent spectator is included in the
casualty list
The utility of going a mile in forty
seconds along the public highway has
not been demonstrated Automobiles
to whom this pace is a delight know
that they essay it at the peril of their
lives and the lives of others. The
least that can be asked of them is
that they confine their efforts to a
specially constructed track, from
which other varieties of vehicular
traffic shall be excluded. Sport is
not esteemed by the general public
when it is apt to be the agency OF
homicide or suicide.

The Democratic party always and
the Republican party of late have ex-
pressed apprehension lest the States
cease their separate existence, save
only in the preservation Of the local
peace The Jeffersonians have de-
plored this as "a complete change in
the character of the Government
The Hamiltonians have apparently
accepted it as an accomplished fact.
A new light has been shed on this
issue, however, within the past
month 1t came from no learned
theorist, but from a shoemaker, a
hard-headed business man. a states

Republican stronghold for tariff reduc-

was swept by the '4stand-patters.
The annual message OF Governor
Douglas to the Legislature OF the old
Bay State indicates a channel of State
activity which may make the separate
Commonwealth much more in the
future, even under Hamiltonian adj
ministrations, than mere guardians of
the peace

The reverence of the common peo-

a dominant trait They believed that
he was good and kind. that the hard
ships they suffered were without his
sanction or knowledge. Fondly they
cherished the delusion that if they
could but see the little father" and
tell their story to him, he would listen
and be glad to extend relief.
Awakening from this dream came
with cruel shock The petitioners,

he left in charge of the crisis were
stepped in the arrogant spirit OF
autocracy.
1t may be that when an idol was
shattered the future of Russia was
determined. No ruler could have had
grander opportunity to get hold up
on the affections of his people, and
the opportunity was cast away. Had
Nicholas met a deputation from the
crowd the world would have admired
his courage and manliness, and the
same qualities would have kept silent
