of thanking Jimmy Hardin for some
very fine specimens Of sweet potatoes
and within a night or two some
"Sambo" who had ''seen yo' ad in de

full row of the best his father had
raised.

cATTLEMEN's BEST SEASON.
Stock Are Fed Cheaper Than Usual,
So Are Profitable.


This will be the best season the cat
tie shippers have had in many years.
More than sixty thousand head of cat.
tie will be shipped from the ranges ad-
Joining Belle Fourche, and the receipts
easily will total over $5,O0O,000. Small
stockmen and large dealers share
alike in these profits, as the conditions
which go to make up a prosperous
year apply alike to both.
AS the demand was slight and the
markets low, many cattle were held
over last season, with the result that
the shipments now are especially
heavy. The profits lie in the fact that
the weather this summer has been so
favorable hat with but little cost the
cattle have become both heavy and fat.
The abundant rainfall and the warn
weather sweetened the grass on the
ranges so that it has been especially
nutritious this season. Then, again.
prices are good, and the man who can
ship heavy cattle and get good prices
for them is sure of money.
All ranchers and stockmen about
Belle Fourche are in an unusually
prosperous condition. Grass is plenti.
full on the ranges and prospects are
good for a favorable eason for all
stock. Shipments have been so heavy
that the railroads have been taxed to
their utmost capacity. The North
Western road, which handles all the
stock shipped from here, is running
extra trains daily.

QUARREL ENDS IN TRAGEDY.
Charles Albert Shoots Employer
Charles Brant.

Charles Albert, a farm hand, is I'M
der arrest at Webster for shooting
his employer, Charles Brant. The
shooting arose over a quarrel over
wages, Albert claiming that Brant
owed him ST which Brant refused to
pay. Albert fired six shots from a 3S'
caliber revolver at Brant, three of the
shots taking effect, inficting wounds
in the wrist, groin and breast. None
of the wounds are serious, and Brant
was able to appear in court at the
preliminary trial of Albert.
The stories of the shooting differ,
One report says that the two men
quarreled over Albert's wages and
that Albert became enraged and open
ed fire on Brant. Brant fed, jumping
into a buggy and driving to town for
surgical aid. Officers started in
search of Albert, says the same report,
and reaching Brant's house were
misdirected in the search of Albert by
Brant's daughter. Another report
connects the name of the daughter,
Mrs. Davis, and Albert as former low.
ers. 1t is said by Brant that his
daughter was present during the
shooting. Still another report says
the shooting was done in an attempt
to rob Brant of money obtained by the
sale of cattle. The daughter and Al.
bert have been arrested.

TO BEGIN AT WESTERN END.
Active Work on Pierre to Hills Line
Will Beoin Soon.

Railroad matters are moving along
in good shape and preparations are
going on for active work on the line
from Pierre to the Hills. Just at the
present though, it appears that grad
ing work will be done first on the
western end of the line, working out
from Rapid City along the old grade
City, Missouri River & st. Paul com.
pany.
There are two reasons for this &C.
tion apparent. One that the company
can handle material from that end OF
the line without ferrying across the
river, and the other that by pushing
work on that end Of the line to the
Cheyenne river they can get material
out to that stream and start work on
their bridge there this winter and
have it in shape to not delay the line
later. Another potent reaso might be
found in the fact that by working from
Rapid City they can secure first choice
Of location of lines before the Milwau-
kee road gets upon the ground.
The line from the west will follow
the old grade across the divide from
Rapid City to the valley of Box Elder
creek and down that stream to the
Cheyenne river, then down the valley
of that stream to the mouth of Bull
creek, which will give them a way out
to the divide between the head of that
stream and the Cottonwood fork Of
Bad river, then down the valley of
that stream.
While it Is considered that the road
will use what is known as the Bad
route, there appears to be a question
as to whether they will start up that
stream from the mouth. or reach out
onto the high prairies up some of the
smaller valleys reaching down to the
Missouri, and get down into the valley
of Bad river at some point farther
west.
H. H. Decker of the chief engineers
force arrived 1t Pierre last week from
Chicago. A full corps of surveyors
came in to begin their work at this
end of the line, and their operations
will indicate which route will be fol.
lowed for the first few miles west from
Pierre,

STATE FAIR BOARD BUSY.
Settling Up the Expenses-AlI Bills
Promptly Paid.

OeCS'iu0 Up inc 6NPeUSet-Au oStHo
Promptly Paid.
The state fair board Is settling up
the expenses Of the fair and all bills
and premiums will be promptly paid.
Altogether the fair was an unprece-
dented success and the management
deserve the highest praise for their
efforts to make the fair the best ever
held IN this part of the Northwest.
Huron's accessibility, together with
the splendid service over the Chicago
& North Western railroad, for which
all are indebted to Supt. Mccarthy and
his assistants, contributed in large de-
gree to the success attained. Special
attention vas given to shippers OF
stock and articles for exhibition, and
as to the general public no better ar
rangement could have been desired
than that governing the special excur-
sion trains from all parts of the state,
bringing thousands of visitors to the
fair daily. Many were here from
all parts of the state, bringing thou
sands of visitors to the fair daily.
Many were here from neighboring
states, and all express much surprise
at the magnitude of the fair and the
generous exhibits in every depart
ment; in fact none vent away dissat-
isfed, but all were lavish in praise of
the fair.
These facts will be an incentive to
the people to make the exhibition next
year a greater success than the one
just closed, if, indeed, that is possible.
The total attendance during the four
days the gates were open was not far
from $4,000; the total cash receipts
as appear from the books were $12,-
276.6S, and to this quite a sum will yet
be added.

GOLD ALONG MISSOURI RIVER.
Experienced Miners Find It In Paying
Quantities in the Sandbars.

Experienced Miners Find It In Paying
Quantities in the Sandbars.
Notwithstanding the apparent i'm
probability of finding gold in paying
quantities in the sandbars along the
Missouri river. some excitement has
been caused along the river in the
southern part Of South Dakota by the
discovery that for some weeks several
mysterious personages have been at
work on the river the mouth of Whet-
stone creek extracting gold from the
sand and gravel washed down the
creek and river.
The party is said to be composed OF
expert miners and gold-seekers from
Denver, and it is said on good author
ity that their efforts have not been en-
tirely fruitless. 1t is stated that the
sand contains gold in considerable
quantities.
The mysterious fortune hunters re-
Gently received a large gasoline en-.
CINE and other mining machinery pre-
paratory to commencing operations on
a larger scale. The mysterious stran.
gers were first seen in that locality
about a year ago. After remaining for
quite a while they disappeared, but
this summer again returned and have
since been at work extracting gold or
some other mineral from the sand.
The inquisitive people who have ap.
preached them on one or two occa-
sions found they were not at all com.
municative, beyond giving the infer.
ence that they are in the employ of an
atlas house and were making maps
and taking notes of the country.
Many of the residents Of that part
of the state have for years believed
the Missouri river bluffs lear the
mouth of milestone creek contained
somt sort of mineral, and they natu-
rally are seeking to verify the rumor
to the effect that the strangers are Sc
curing gold in paying quantities from
what has heretofore been regarded as
worthless sand.
Those who accept the theory that
gold in paying quantities is being Sc
cured declare that the precious metal
has been washed down from the gold.
bearing rocks of the Black Hills, which
are situated directly west of the To-
cality where the strangers are thought
to be extracting gold from sand.

DEATH CAUSED BY
DEATH MESSAGE
Startling Chapter Of Condolences
Revealed by Investigation in
Stella Dreyer Case.
ro,,rnal sneciaI Service.

Iowa City, Iowa. Oct. pa startling
series of condolences has come to hight
in Coroner Sizes Investigations into the
tragic death of Stella Dreyer, the To-
a year-old daughter of Rev. G. Dreyer,
formerly of Minneapolis.
In addition to the fact that the girl
was carrying a message foretelling the
death OF Mrs. Ed Montgomery OF Mus
catine who died suddenly after her
sons marriage, the messenger girl was
picked up after the casualty by Man
ager D. w. Coffey of the Bell Tele-
phone company, just subsequent to his
receiving message announcing his
mothers death.
1t also develops that Manager Ed
DRYER of the Postal Telegraph company
and brother of the girl, narrowly es-
capped death at the same spot about a
year ago He also was delivering a
message to the very family to whom the
girl was going when she met her fate,
and as in this last case, freight train
on the same transfer whizZed backwards
to him and he barely escaped by leap
ing over track.
Among the most touching messages
of sympathy received by the stricken
family was one from G. F. Fox of
Des Moines, superintendent of the pos.
tal's eighth district, who appreciated
the girls services highly. He was es-
spica1ly sympathetic. for both his father
and mother were run over by the cars
and killed.
