A Polo Tournament,

o. P. Smith returned Wednesday
evening from the Northern Hills and
is very enthusiastic over the interest
that has been aroused over the polo
tournament which he is working up
for Hot Springs in October. Next
week Mr.. Smith will accompany G..
G. Dennis, of the Northwestern, and
J. L. Bentley, of the Burlington, to
Denver to confer with Colorado polo
players regarding the tournament at
this place. 1t Is proposed to offer a
magnificent trophy, or cup, of Black
Hills gold-which will even surpass
the Glenwood Springs cup, which
cost $1,100. Besides this team cup
there will be four elegant indivi-
dual cups offered as prizes.
Fort Meade and Fort Robinson
polo players. and others from vari'
Gus Hills points, are very enthusias
tic over having a tournament here
and believe that great interest will
be taken in it. They will be helt
each year, this being the first an
nual meeting under the auspices
of the Minnekahta club.-Ho

Publicity Needed

This is an age Of advertising. Fuo-
Ncity is the watchword. 1t Is the most
enlightened age the old world has ever
known. Only a small percentage of the
people do not read, and it is In fact
rare thing to find an illiterate person in
any community.
In every farmers house can be found
from one to a dozen newspapers and
periodicals, says the Home Trade Ad-
vocate. The old style farmer Is fast
passing, and there is general admis-
sion that intelligence is needed on tho
farm as we'll as In the business house
and factory. With telephones. daily
rural delivery service and every inno-
walton of civilization the farmer Is fast
becoming noted as among the educated
and advanced citizens of the land. The
| farmers are readers.
Growing generations in agricultural
communities have all the advantages
that the youth of cities have and few
| of the disadvantages and surely
breathe healthier moral atmosphere
The farmer is the main support OF
the country press. He feels interested
in all local affairs. and his home paper

First Passenger Train.

Tuesday morning, August 1, 1905
marked an epoch in the history of
South Dakota in that at that time
the first traih-a regular passen-
ger train-crossed the Missouri riv-
er within the confines of the state.
A special from there says that at
6:15 o'clock a. M, the passenger
train left Chamberlain for Oacoma
to which point the rails were sew
eral days ago laid on the extension
of the Milwaukee railroad from
Chamberlain to the Black Hills. 1t
Immediately left on the return trip
and resumed its journey eastward
to Chicago. In commemoration OF
the event the people of Oacoma and
surrounding country gathered in the
afternoon to celebrate in fitting
| manner the important event. The
afternoon was devoted to sports
among them being a ball game b!
Plankinton and Oacoma mines, mu
sic by the Plankinton band, a ten
mis- match, foot races, sack races ant
O ladies' baseball throwing match
In the evening the large crowd pres

Hand Bills for a Marriage.

A special from Wabash, Indiana
tells OF the marriage of Miss Golda
Daugherty, who is we'll known in this
city, having worked here in the
millinery stores some twelve months
ago. She is a cousin OF the Mccain
boys in this city.
Information has been received Of
the marriage OF Henry Williams, son
of G. A. Williams, of VanBuren, ard
Miss Golda Daugherty. Williams
was sent to Europe by the Standard
Oil Company. His immediate ter
ritory was in the Balkans. Several
OF William S married friends sent for
their wives whom they left behind,
and Miss Daugherty, who was
Wllliams's finance: was persuaded to
join them.
Williams arranged to meet her in
Paris and marry her, but on the ar
rival of the young woman it was
found the formalities of the French
law were so numerous the ceremony
could not be- performed there, and
they went to Roumania where, at
Bucharest, and after the arrival OF
numerous sworn statements from
public officials in America, the mar
riage has just taken place. Among
the other papers was an affidavit as
to the date and place of Williams
birth, af1idavits of his parents and
certificates from the county clerk
and the secretary of state.
"Handbills announcing the ap
preaching wedding were posted on
all the telegraph and telephone polt S

alton of stated period the govern

To Adopt Over Fifty.

At a spt cial meeting this week, !,
Friday eve the NJ. B. A. will adopt
over 50 members. This places the
membership of the local lodge close
to the 100 mark and if all members
aid in the work enough more can be
added at the last August meeting to
more than cover the 100.
Hot summer weather and the
busy season seems to make no differ
ence to the M. B. A. as they continue
to add from 1000 to 5000 to their
membership every month in the year
The reason seems to be that the NJ
B. A. gives more for the money
than any other order gives. Many
hundreds of claims for broken limbs
and arms have been paid in its frst
8 years work besides total disability
and loss OF hands feet and eyes an(
yet nearly quarter million of dol
lars has been laid aside in reserve
fund for future use and the surplu:
| in the benefit fund for immediate usl
is seldom less than $50, 900 at an,
time.

chicaso's street Cleaners Club.

An efficient factor In the "help keep
the town clean" movement which is
prevalent throughout Chicago is IN or
ganlzation Of women and children
which makes weekly tours Of Il district
on the southwest side. 1t Is known as
the Street Cleaners club. While the lit
tie white wings" are q society by
themselves. they are subservient to the
civic improvement committee. So far
there are fourteen blocks on tho south
west side Of Chicago which are being
cared for by these little boys and girls.
There are IA women and 800 children
banded together for the purpose of
making the new city" clean. Each
woman is responsible for the cleanli-
ness of one block, and the children In
that square have been ask ed to cooper.

Terms Used.

The Bureau of Forestry has COM
piled a list of terms used by forest
ers and loggers ard sent 1t out as
Bulletin No. 81. 1t affords the lay
reader an insight into the vernacu-
lar of forestry and logging and is an
interesting publication.
The first half of the pamphlet is
devoted to forestry. There we may
read all the technical terms in good
use, from ''absolute forest land" to
yield table," Many terms explain
themselves, but where they are not
readily understood the short defin-
ition makes plain at once the idea
conveyed and the need of a special
word or phras to convey 1t. Per-
spicuity, precision, and common
sense seem to have been the objects
sought by the compilers.
On turning to the logging terms,
which are listed in the last half of
the bulletin, we come across some
truly remarkable expressions--terms
which, though evidently derived OF
slang, are now in good use among
woodsmen either throughout the
country or in the region denoted in
each case. There the uninitiated
may learn the distinction between
r'bailhooter" and a "boom rat,
between a "bull cook" and ''catty'
man." and find that non of them re
fers to any lesser animal than the
logger himself. Among other crea
lures of the logging camp may b
numbered also the alligator" ant
the dolphin" the "dog," the "pig,
and the "road donkey" all name
of objects endowed with life by tn
vernacular of the logger. The "alli
gator" proves to be "a boat used il
handling logs" the "dog" "shor
heavy piece of STEEL" the pig
rigging sled," and the road don
key" a donkey engine mounted o
/ a heavy sled, etc. Birds are rer
PRESENTED by the "blue "jay" and tn
rooster" (also called "gooseneck"
reptiles by the SNAKE" and insect
by the "katydid." A tenderfoot In
tending to visit among the Drawn
loggers in the North woods, the Al
, palachian Forest, or elsewhere
+ should find it decidedly in order
take along this bulletin.
, There are number of local term
, not included in the little lexicon. 0
J, the Black Hills Reserve the ma
I who transplants trees or sows tn
q seed for new ones is known as "Rt
r production Bill" and the man wit
6 the calipers who measures the tin
h ber in the trees is known as "Mea
n uring Make" ThVe are numbe
of other local terms that are equal
good and that could have beer ii

Serene Simplicity.


With his grandchild on his knee
He SITS gazing Off at space;
Backward to simplicity
He has wandered. In his face
There's the simple. childish look.
The old honesty. once more
That he long ago forsook,
That ere knowledge came, he wore.
Though his tie has worked askew,
He nor notices nor cares;
There Is lack Of smartness. too,
In the raiment that he wears.
Here and there a gap appears
Where an unusued button shows;
BY the right of many years
He ignores 1t, IL he knows.
In the faces Of the twain
There Is natures honesty;
One has left off being vain;
One has not yet learned to be.
Close to earth and unconcerned
BY the things the world may think,
One to wander. one returned,
They are sitting at the brink.
Sweet the innocence that lies
In q baby's honest gaze,
Sweet tho candor in his eyes
Ere he learns OF worldly ways;
Sweet the simpleness of man
After all the strife is past,
The return to nature when
Vanity departs at last.

BOUGHT GRADES9
ARE WE TO have MORE RoADs7
With Rumors Coming in From All
Sides About Railroads, Gan
You Tell Their Import?

Figuratively speaking, Rapid is
all torn up over deal which is said
to have been consummated yester-
day, by which the Northwestern
railway company becomes the owner
of the right of way of the Rapid
City, Missouri River & st. Paul
railway and eighteen miles of grade
already completed between Rapid
City and Box Elder creek.
At the time the D. & W. railway
proposition was at it's height several
years ago this road was also started,
financed by Rapid parties. When the
D. & w failed the contractors were
all in debt to the Rapid City mer
chants, and to liquidate the same
they graded the eighteen miles
spoken of above.
Some days since call was insert
in the local papers for meeting OF
the stockholders, to be held on the
Oath of the present month. But it
is said that interested parties busted
themselves, with the result that a
meeting was held few days since,
at which time the Northwestern
company purchased the grade and
right of way to the river, paying the
sum OF $40, 900 for the same.
An effort to confirm this news was
made to-day, with satisfactory re
suits. The largest stockholders re-
fuse to say anything, but all O.
Rapid City now belives the deal has
been made. V. T. Price is the pres
ident of the Rapid City, Missouri
River & St. Paul Railway Company
This deal. coming right on top o
the many rumors Of the intention o
the Northwestern to build across th
reservation, is looked upon here a
cinching the proposition, and fur
ther developments are anxiousl
awaited.
Many of the merchants who ar
interested have refused to let 20 c
their stock and the sale will pu
several of them on "easy street" TO
the future.-Register.

Gamblers Open Up, But


The representatives of several for
mer gambling houses rented a room
up over the Family Liquor Store and
opened up a little game of faro Sat
urday night last. The game lasted
exactly three-quarters of an hour by
the watch, when it was closed up by
Sheriff Trathen, with an admonition
that any further violation of the anti
gambling law would be resented in
a maner more disastrous to the Of
tenders. The county officials have
been extremely lenient with the
gamblers probably upon the grounds
that as the practice had been SO long
tolerated that it would not be quite
fair to be severe at tirst.-Dead-
