What IA Differences!

The following from the Lead Regis
fer of Nov. 2l indicates the character
of weather they had there when it was
as balmy here as June:
"The snow storm which continued
throughout yesterday, last evening dc.
veloped into veritable blizzard, one
of the worst storms to have visited
this section in years. The snow was
accompanied by high wind, which
drove the particles of ice with terrific
velocity, making it very unpleasant
for those who we're forced to be out.
Drifts to the depth of several feet we're
to be found about the city this morn
ing. Had it been very cold, the suffer
ing would have been widepread. A
large number of families were not
prepared for the storm, as the weather
for the past several days has been ex-
cellent.''

stetson's Great ..uncre Toms. Cabin Co.

Manager j. G. Richer has made
arrangements to present the original
production Of "Uncle Toms Cabin" at
the Opera House on Dec. LIST.
The wonderful popularity of Harriet
Stoves master piece ali over the Uni
ted States for the past forty years has
led to it's production by all kinds of
actors, good, bad and Indifferent.
There is magic in the name of Uncle
Tom and it's capacity to draw the pub
tic to see it is phenominal. This, as
pretty much all theatregoers are aware,
has been fully taken advantage of by a
horde of irresponsibles and a prodnc-
tion by them, at once wild aud wooly'
has been to often the result. When
produced with proper dramatic cast.
coupled with proper science and
mechanical equipment, no such story
of American life, prior to the great
cricis in our national affairs, has ever
been penned. For twenty years. the
Stetson production has been the lead
ing one, steadily advancing each sea
son with the wonderful stride OF pro-
gress. The scenic investment, the
choruses have been steadily added to,
while the musical and dramatic roles
have been placed in the hands of
artists of reputation. Special scenery
by Seavor IS carried tor every scene
depicted \ corps of colored singers,
cakewalkers, dancers aud feldhants
from the cotton belt lend realism to
the plantation scenes.

Gold Fairly Glitters.

Emil Hargens came down from the
Hills a few days ago, having been en-.
gagged with Geo. Turner in doing
assessment work on their mining
claims east of Red Fern. Emil brought
sack of ore to have some assayed,
and Monday he and Harry Gayhart
busted themselves pounding up a lot
OF it. Lots of gold was panned out of
the samples, indicating that it would
assay good many dollars to the ton.
The ore was taken from the Dakota
and Patrick Henry claims, upon which
they have considerable development
work done in the way of shafts and
drifts.
Emil went back to the prospects
Tuesday to join George Turner and
finish their assessment work and get
more ore. 1t certainly looks as though
they might have fine thing in their
mines, providing such ore shows up in
any quantity,

Hot Springs Loses to Rapid.

The High School foot ball team
went down to defeat before the Rapid
City team last Saturday at that place.
The team from this place was accom-.
panied by number of friends who
went along for a good time and to
cheer along the team to victory.
The Rapid City team outclassed Hot
Springs, outweighino the latter about
ten pounds to the man. Our boys also
lacked team work, and besides had
never been up against real game be-
fore, while the Rapid City team has
had opportunity for lots of good prac-
tlce with the School of mines and
Indian team, and had played Deadwood
once this season besides have few old
experienced players. But the boys
from Hot Springs put up plucky
game and only allowed their opponents
one touchdown in the first half and
Rapid did not not make the other two
touchdowns until the last ten minutes
OF the second half when our team went
to pieces.

Golden Anniversary of a ponul lar wee,.,.

Golden Anniversary of Il Popular Weekly
1t has fallen to the lot of very few of
the leading publications of the Unitad
States to survive the vicissitudes of half
century. One of the fortunate ones
is Leslie's Weekly, the first illustrated
weekly newspaper established in the
United States, and which, on Dec 18th.
will celebrate its fiftieth anniversary.
When the late Frank Leslie started
this publication, in 1856, it was ques.
toned whether he would be successful
or not. He was an Englishman and
believed that if England could support
several first class illusatrted weeklies
the United States could support one,
and his judgment proved to be cor
rect. Two years after he began the
publication of his weekly he had live
" competitor, issued by Harper Broth
ers, aud still in existence. A unique
feature of the Golden Anniversary
number of Leslie's Weekly will be an
exact copy, full size, 16 pages, of the
first issue of Leslie's Weekly. This will
afford the reader fine opportunity, by
comparison, to judge of the wonderful
progress in printing and engraving
during the past fifty years The Gold
en- Anniversary number of Leslie's will
contain number of special featnres
that will make it unusally attractive
and valuable.

Newspaper men occasionally do
clever things. as is we'll evidenced in
the production of the famous drama,
midnight In Chinatown" which
comes to the Opera House Wednesday
night, December 9th for one perfor-
nance.
Charles Edmunds was "police court"
reporter respectively on the "Exami-

little ''doing" to which he was not
''wise.''
midnight in Chinatown" is a meri.
torious and highly sensational story
of life in the Golden Gate City, but it
teaches moral which is said to serve
bettar than sermon. 1t also appeals
to every class of society, so strong in
its human interest

THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION.

The president has issued his proc
lamation naming Thursday, Novem-
Der 30, as a day for Thanksgiving. The
proclamation follows:
By the President of the United
States of America. Proclamation:
When, nearly three centuries ago, the
first settlers came to the country
which has now become this great re-
public, they were confronted not only
by hardships and privations, but terrible
risk OF their lives. In those grim years
the custom grew of setting apart one
day of each year for a special service OF
Thanksgiving to the Almighty for pre-.
serving the people through the chang
ing seasons. The custom has now be-
come national and hallowed by inn
memorial usage. We live in easier
and more plentiful times than our fore
fathers who with rugged strength
faced the rugged days, and yet the
dangers to national life are quite "a
great now as at any previous time in
our history. 1t is eminently fitting
that once year our speople should
set apart a day for praise and for
Thanksgiving to the giver of good, and
at the same time that they express
their thankfulness for the abundant
mercies received, should manfully
acknowledge their shortcomings and
pledge themselves in good faith to
strive to overcome them. During the
past year we have been blessed with
bountiful crops. Our business pros
perity has been.-great. No other peo-
pie has ever stood On as high a level
of material we'll being as ours now
stands. We are not threatened by
foes from without. The foes from
whom we should pray to be delivered
are from our own passions, appetites
and follies, and against these there is
always need that we should war.
Therefore now set apart Thursday.
the Both day of this November, as a
day of Thanksgiving for the past and
prayer for the future, and on that day-
ask that throughout the land the
people gather in their homes and
places of worship and in render
ing thanks unto the most high for the
manifold blessings of the past year
consecrate themselves to a life of
cleanliness, honor aud wisdom so that
this nation may do its allotted work ,on
the earth in manner worthy of these
who founded it and of those who pre-
serve it,
In witness whereof l have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed.
Done at the City of Washington
this End day of November, in the year
OF our Lord, one thousand, nine hum
dred and five, and of the independence
of the United States, one hundred and
thirtieth.

The gratitude of men, like all their
emotions, is limited by their insight
and intelligence. They are often deep.
ly thankful for happenings which are
apparently prosperous, but which in
the end prove to be Overwhelmingly
disastrous; and they are often rebel.
lious against happenings which seem
unfortunate at the moment, but which
in the end prove to be the highest
prosperities. To be grateful for OBJ
vlous gifts is natural; but gratitude
ought to go much deeper. There can
be no adequate Thanksgiving unless
gratitude is based more on faith than
on sight and is born of a profound
sense of the blnssedness of life and the
beneficence of the whole order of ere.

vast that only rarely does any clear
disclosure of it flash in view, not ONLY

happiest life does its beneficence dis.
tlnctly reveal itself. For prosperous
events and happy hours do not of
themselves constitute a basis for that
all embracing gratitude which is the
response of the son to the father. of
the human to the divine. No sensi.
tive man or woman can be happy, and
therefore grateful, in the obvious
sense of the word, for prosperity
which is simply individual No man
of heart could dream dream of happi.
ness in a sheltered garden when the
homes of his neighbors we're swept by
desolating storms. True gratitude is
as unselish as true love, and in the
degree in which it is unselfish will IL
be adequate and comprehensive. This
nation has ample reason to be grateful
for the fertility of its fields and the
wide distribution of material comforts:
for better homes, better food and
better clothes than are given to the
men and women of most races: bnt
these are not the things for which il
ought to be most profoundly thankful

Record of Yellow Fever.

Yellow fever has always been re-
garded as an American plague, it's
earliest and greatest ravages being in
the West Indies and in American
ports. In 1904 and 1914, however, it
was very violent at Gibraltar, and dur
ing the next quarter of century there
were number of virulent outbreaks
in various Spanish cities. Norfolk
and Portsmouth, Va, were ravaged in
1855; Wilmington, N. c., in 1862, and
Savannah, Ca, in 1876. Between 1847
and 1868 there were six periods of
scourge in New Orleans, the mortality
in each case averaging about $500.
In 1S78-79 Memphis was almost depop-
ulated, there being 5,160 deaths in
1878 and 1856 in 1879, though the larg-
er part of the population had fled from
the city. There were fever ravages
during the same years in New Orleans
and other gulf and south Atlantic
ports, the total number of deaths
from the scourge in the United States
during that year being 14,809.
