SAILING 90 MILES AN HOUR.
Wonderful Speed Made by Land Ships
With Safety


Sailing on land is new diversion,
experimental with at different times
in the past. that has suddenly burst
into prominence. No other summer
amusement conveyance O. mans in
vention can make anything like the
speed of the land sailing vessel. 1t
Skins over the ground with the actual
speed of the wind. Its only rival in
amusement conveyances of winter or
summer is the ice boat; but the land
sailing vessel furnishes much greater
enjoyment than the ice boat, for it's
path is not limited by the narrow con-
mes of an ice pond, and moreover, it
is a summer vehicle made to sail in
the season when rapid open-air travel
ing is really enjoyable. So fast will
the land boat move if permitted to go
at its full speed during a strong wind
that Its occupants would find it impos-
slgle to retain their seats. Hence its
speed has to be checked and regulated
by the manipulation of brakes and
sails. From fifty to ninety miles an
hour, however, has often been attain
ed with safety when the precaution
was taken OF seeing that the passen-
gers We're well secured in their seats.

TRY THIS ON YOUR WATCH.
Will Keep Better Time II Wound in
the Mornjno.

II have discovered that my watch
keeps better time if l wind it in the
morning instead of at night" remarked
Assistant Manager Sweeney, as he
toyed with a valuable hunting case
yesterday. The old superstitious be-
lief that your luck will change if you
change the time of winding your watch
may have some basis in fact here
after am going to wind my timepiece
in the morning. This is because the
hour Of rising is for the ordinary man
more regular than that of retiring, but
even the most sober and orderly of
men are apt to relax and be prone to
carelessness at bedtime. In this con-
dition the winding is apt to be done in
jerky, irregular sort of way, or too
far or not far enough. Nine people
out of ten wind their watches upon re-
firing, but if they would do it when
they got up, at some regular point in
the process of making their toilet, they
would do it much better.-Milwaukee

Morton Sends Out Appeal to Equitable

New York, Dec. 19.-An appeal to
the policyholders in all the states Of
the Union to assist in preventing adj
verse legislation is made by President
Paul Morton of the Equitable Life AS
surance society in circular letter
which is being sent to policyholders.
"You cannot give men character nor
make them honest by preamble, reso-
luton or enactment" says the letter.
What the life insurance needs above
everything else ischaracter, honesty
and good business administration.
There can be no objection to prop
er legislation. safeguarding the bust

The society depends upon its policy
holders to see that there is no unreas-

"It may from time to time call their
attention to measures calculated to do
them harm, but under no circum-
stances will it be a party to any cor
rupt methods in preventing strike
legislation"
Mr.. Morton expresses the opinion
that the Equitable has no right to con-
tribute to political campaign funds.
and informs the policyholders that no
such contributions will be made by the
society in the future.

MAKE NEW COUNTIES.
South Dakota Residents in Several
Districts Want Counties Divided.

The large county of Lyman is con
much territory for one county since it
has secured a railroad, and the resi-
dents of the county are agitating the
division idea The same situation will
arise in Stanley county as soon as the
Northwestern road is built across that
county. Butte is another county which
will seek division as soon as there is
further railroad development in that
section, and Meade probably will be
asking for division later.
In the early days the territory occu-
pied by these counties was cut into a
number of smaller counties, but with
out organization, and the legislative
session of 1895 provided for the con-
solidation of these counties into large
organized counties. The section now
occupied by Lyman county was includ-
ed in the counties of Lyman, Preshho
and Pratt; the Stanley county terri
tory was included in the counties OF
Stanley, Sterling, Nowlin and part OF
Jackson and Pyatt What is now Butte
was included in the counties of Butte,
Harding. Wagner, Ewing, Martin, emo
teau and Rineheart. The counties OF
Delano and Scobey We're added TO
Meade. and the only other unorganlZed
county of Ziebach was added to Pen
nington.
Efforts We're made at the time OF the
opening of the Sioux reservation to Sc
cure organization of several of these
counties and Gov. Melette made trip
out into thtat section of the state to
look over the situation before putting
county organizations into effect. After
looking over the situation he decided
that they were not ready for organlza'
ton.

DEER TURNS PURsUER.
Big Buck, Evidently Seeking Revenge,
Assails pakotan Not Hunting.

Doubtless firing of being pursued by
enthusiastic hunters, Black Hills
deer turned pursuer and, as result,
L. x. Haines, residing near the little
town of linton, in the northern foot
hills of the Black Hills, had thrilling
adventure. He had not been hunting
deer, but was quietly walking up the
road to get his mail when he sighted
the animal in the highway before him.
The deer was coming toward him. 1t
was some distance down hill, and
Haines supposed it would soon sight
him and take to flight, as is usually
the case.
Instead of turning. the big buck,
when it sighted him, made straight for
Haines, and it became race for life.
Haines was unarmed, and as he is a
heavy man the prospects were that he
could not outrun the deer. He speed
lily came to this conclusion, and. reach
ing a pile of rocks, he took refuge be-
hind them.
But the deer was not to be baf1led,
and after lodging the apparently mad
dened animal for few minutes, dur
ing which it showed no signs of relent-
Ing, Haines watched his chance and
again took to his heels. Heading for a
nearby tree which seemed to be exact
ly the right place for the emergency,
Haines, who was nearly exhausted by
his strenuous efforts to escape the ami
NAL, managed by sheer force of will to
scramble up the tree out of reach.
After about fifteen minutes vigil at
the foot of the tree the deer evidently
wearied of the game and departed.
