So many interesting things were
seen that it would be next to impos-
sible to describe their interesting
trip, however, it is suffice to say that
they all had a genuine good time
and returned pleased with Colorado.
Louis Penhoel, Otto Ellerman,
Frank Sampson Of Yankton and
another young mar from st. Paul
were arrivals in the city overland
from Yankton Saturday. The boys
have had a splendid ~vacatiin and are
now back prepared to do some good
work the coming winter.
: The First National Bank Of Custer
was entered Friday OF last week by
burgulars and between seven and
eight thousand dollars was taken.
No clue to the robbers has been OBJ
tanned up to this hour but word has
been wired all over the surrounding
country and there is no doubt but
that they will be captured in a short
time.
Arthur Bridge had a arrow es-
cape from death Monday evening.
While standing in front Of the Pat
ton house he was suddenly siezed
with heart failure and onlv by super
human efforts was he nursed back
to life. Tuesday he was on the
street feeling as we'll as could be ex-
pected under the circumstances.
On l%September 7th at Lincoln.
Neb., occurred the marriage of Miss
Florence Carnes and MIR. Leo Brown.
Miss Carnes is a brilliant young la dy
and her many friends will be pleased
to know that she married a fine
young man that will be worthy
husband.
Men, men - men everybody,
apparently wants men and none are
to be found. The railroad contrac-
tors are literally begging for men to
complete their work. All the local
industries are pressed for help and
private individuals that want a man
for a few hours Or q day at a time
have concluded to get along the best
way possible by themselves.
The Butte county Fair was q great
success-not the least OF the success
full performance was when o couple
Of cowboys filed with q quantity of
Dan Roberts whiskey took issue
with a certain show with the Dixie
Carnival Company and proceeded to
UNLOAD" some extra lead from their
AS. The disturbance was quieted
shortly after one Of the women with
the show appeared on the scene with
o huge butcher knife and made o few
"passes" in the air with the same.
Thomas Bruner returned last week
from Colorado where he went TO To-
cate permanently. His many friends
will be disappointed to learn that
he went on a wild goose chase
and that he returned very much dis
pleased with himself for going at all.
Mr.. Brunner's experience is just the
same as many more have gone
through and will continue to 60
through as long as men live. South
Dakota, the Black Hills, Pennington
county. Rapid City is the best
place on earth and when you feel
like kicking and grumbling ask those
who have left and returned for their
opinion-it is always the same. Mr..
Drummer is an expert workman and
q good citizen and he will soon gain
back what he has lost in his venture
which no doubt will prove bene-
1T rather than q detriment, in the
end.
liver Engdahl, ayoung man of this
city was killed by q runaway horse
on his mothers ranch about twelve
miles below here last Sunday after
noon. It seems that he was riding
q high spirited horse that in some
