summon them to take their places by
the Christmas hearth.
Welcome, old aspirations, g%littering
creatures of an ardent fancy, to your
shelter underneath the holly! We
know you, and have not outlived you
yet. Welcome, old projects and old
loves, however, fleeting, to your hooks
among the steadier lights that burn
around us. Welcome, all that was
eve real to our hearts; and for the
earnestness that made you real,
thanks to Heaven! Do we build no
Christmas castles in the clouds now?
Let our thoughts, futtering like but
terfiies among these flowers of chill
dren, bear witness! Before this boy,
there stretches out a future, brighter
than we ever looked on in III old ro-
mantle time, but bright with honor
and with truth. Around this little
head on which the sunny curls lie
heaped, the graces sport, as prettily,
as airily, as when there was no scythe
within the reach of Time to shear
away the curls of our f~irst-love. Upon
another girls face near it-placider
but smiling bright-ta quiet and con-
tented little face, We see Home fairly
written. Shining from the word, as
rays shine from a star, we see how,
when u graves are old, other hopes
than ours are young. other hearts than
ours are moved; how other ways are
smoothed; how other happiness
blooms, ripens, and decays-no. not

PROGRESS OF SOUTH DAKOTA
Fifth Annual Review Compiled by Secretary Doane
Robinson of the Historical Society.

during the ensuing quarter will re-
duce this floating Indebtedness to
about $400, 900, which it will be neces
sary to carry until the legislature
makes some practical legislation re-
lating to state The vast re-
sources of the state, under any ration
al system of taxation should provide
ample revenue for every requirement.
Private Finances-Despite the prac-
tical loss of the wheat crop of 1904 and
the serious injury to the live stock in
dustry last year through the beef trust
and butchers strike, the reserve funds
of the people are constantly augment
ing.
The deposits in the state banks have
increased during the year $2,4O1,-
42S.21, and those in the national banks
almost an equal amount. The com
bined deposits of the state and nation
al banks at this time aggregate the
vast sum of 49,. coo, 900.
Flood at Fort Pierre-The only note
worthy disaster which has fallen upon
the state during the year was the
great food upon the Teton, OF Bad riv-
err, which resulted in the destruction
of a portion of the city Of Fort Pierre
on July 3.
Great Prairie Fire-A great prairie
fire swept through the western portion
of Brown county on November Is, de-
stroying a visit amount of property,
estimated to be worth a half million
dollars.
Crops and Other Productions-For
the first time since the organization of
this society we have a recent census
of the agricultural productions of the
state and the acreage of crops as a
basis for the estimates upon the years
productions.
Wheat-Our estimate of the wheat
crop of 1904, published in the review
of the state last year, was 24,150, 600
bushels. The actual figures for that
crop as shown by the census taken
last May was 24,183, 1872 bushels. The
census shows that there were 2,S74,184
acres harvested last year. The total
acreage this year is about the same.
From what I have seen and learned I
conclude that the average yield this
season is fifteen bushels per acre, or
a total of 49, 0O, 900 bushels. This has
averaged the producer So cents in the
local market, making the value of the
| entire crop s28, O21, 500.
Corn-The census shows 1,739,080
| acres of corn last year and a yield of
39,454,4S1 bushels. The acreage ap-
pears to be increased about 6 per cent
this year, or a total Of 1,S43,424 acres.
The crop is very good and we'll ma
tured, though it is not quite up to the
average in the southeastern counties,
| those best adapted to this crop. The
| government places the average at %
bushels per acre, which seems to be
about right for the state at large and
will give up a total yield of 51,615,S72
| bushels. which at 80 cents is worth
S15.4S4,761 at home.
Mr.. Robinson deals with the other
crops and productions of the state in
detail and says:
I summarize the following as the to-
tai value of the agricultural and min
I aral productions of South Dakota for
! no wear of 1909.

story, which subsisted until death?
Has that same rival long ceased
to care fer that same priceless
pearl, and married for money, and be-
come usurious? Above all, do we
really know, now, that we should prob
ably have been miserable if we had
won and worn the pearl, and that we
are better without her?
That Christmas when we had re-
Gently achieved SO much fame; when
we had been carried in triumph some
where, for doing something great and
good; when We had won an honored
and ennobled name, and arrived and
were received at home in a shower of
tears of joy; is it possible that that
Christmas has not come yet?

On Trial for Murder.

Douglas county has seven criminal
and s5 civil cases on the court dock
cts. Among them is W. F. Beekman,
who will be tried for numbering his
stepson, Robert Ring at Oak creek, in
that county, in 1894. On that oceas-
ion, Beekman also slew his wife, and
for this he was sentenced TO the peni-
tentiary for life. 1t being represent
ed to Governor Geer that Beckman was
a helpless sufferer from consumption,
he was paroled from the penitentiary
in 1902. Beckman Immediately quit
the state, but last June he returned,
going to the home Of a friend in Port
land. This fp"t became known to the
authorities here and Judge Hamilton
at once issued a bench warrant for
Beckman's arrest, which was executed
in Portland, after which Beckman was
brought here. In explanation Of his
presence in Portland, Beckman de-
clared that he was en- route to Cali
fornia to enter the Soldiers Home.
At the time Beclman was convict
ed Of numbering his wife, he was in
dicted also for numbering his stepson,
but he was not tried on that charge,
which now coHfronts him in the saith
year Of his life.

FANCY APRONS 51o5.

There .s 2 certain charm about a dainty apron that everyone has known and felt. It gives an air of temininity that is a delight in itself and suggests all sorts of womanly interests and oc- equations. Illustrated are two lovely ones that cannot fail to appeal to the woman of real womanly instincts, be she girl or matron, and both are so simple that they can be made with very little effort and very little labor. The one to the left is a bit more eIa- borate but the one to the right is not less shapely and attractive because of its absolute simplicity. As illustrated both are made of lawn with trimming of lace but frills can be embroidery or of the material if preferred. The pointed apron is made in three points and is joined to a belt, but the round apron is cut in one piece and is finished with beading threaded with ribbon that serves to regulate the size
 The quantity of material for the me- dium size is l yard 27, 3-4 yards 36 inches wide with 1-2 yards of inser- tion and 1-2 yards of lace for point ed apron, 3-4 yards of beading and 3 yards of edging for round apron. The pattern 5105 is cut in one size only.

''In MT. McCutcheon's cartoons" he says, i've admire the clever execution and the gentle hu- nor which diffuses all of his work, but I dare say that more than all we admire him for his considerate treat ment of public men and his blessed wisdom in getting away from the hackneyed political subjects and giv- ing us a few pictures of that every

A SECOND CANAL
Word Begun on the Buckeye White
 Tanks system.

Buckeye. Ariz., Dec. 7.-(Special Cor respondence to The Republican)- Charles Jones is confined to his bed at the Wessex ranch with chills and fever. He and his brother, Wesley, contemplated leaving for their old home in Kansas to spend the holidays this week, but this sickness will de- lay the trip. Wesley will return to Buckeye after the holidays.
 Mrs Joel Boniurant is very i'll.
 MT. James and George Day are out at the Haynes mine in the White Tank mountains. putting in troughs and fix ing to water their cattle from the water in the mine and thus establish a very desirable range.
 The river has at last reached a stage where work can be commenced on the dam, and the canal company has been busy getting hay, grain and supplies on the ground so they can go right to work. Superintendent Chas. Williams promises water in three weeks.
 The White Tank Canal company af- ter years of talk, is at last getting busy moving dirt. They began the first of the week clearing off the right of way for their canal near the head. They say they will have fifty teams at work in a few days.

 Mahlin Lewis of Arlington, has nov ed his family on Christian ranch on the Buckeye.

THEODORE RooSEVELT'S NEW

Theodore Roosevelt says in the dedi- cation to John Burroughs of his new book, '"Outdoor Pastimes of An Amer ican Hunters (his only published vol tune, except speeches in five years) You, in your own person. have illus trated what can be done by a lover of nature, who has trained himself to keen observation who describes ac- curately what is thus observed, and who finally possesses the additional gift of writing with charm and inter- est" The reader of this volume will be impressed with the fact that it is ex- actly this attitude which Mir. Roose- welt himself so admirably exemplifies in his writings about outdoor life.
