DeadIn a Well

The saddest death Of the year oc-
Cured in Hume. Tuesday evening.
(Jan. 81 Stanley, the 9-year-old son
of Mrs. Arista Dawson was drown
ed in the old unused well on the old
Fleming property in the east end OF
town.
Mrs. Dawson sent Stanley after
some medicine, and when he did not
return Mt dusk she became alarmed
and made some Inquiries. The last
time he was seen awe he was going
east along in front OF squire Dick
inson's residence. Al trace OF him
ended there. The whole town and
country turned out aud joined In the
search. At daylight the lad was
still missing and the mystery OF his
disappearance thickened. The pub
lie schools dismissed and the pupils
assisted In the hunt, but To no avail.
At the noon hour the church and
school bells began TO toll The lost
boy bad been fouud-dcad. The en-
tire community bowed the head In
sorrow. The little fellow had many
friends for a child OF his age.
Mr. Steve Gamble aud SIR. James
Thompson lowered a graphing
hook into the old abandoned well
on the vacant lots south OF VIM.
Hern's The first east brought the
body to the surface stln and stark
In death. No one hns been able 70
determine the true status Of the ac-
cident. The well was only covered
10y q few well-rotted plauks, aud as
the little fellow had a habit or fond
ness for peering into wells, IL Is
thought the boards gave way pre-
cipltating him TO the bottom.
The funeral service was conducted
from the Christian Church Thursday
afternoon and was largely attended;

know the startling events that occur
when some misguided aborigine wad-
dles around the business thoroughfares
with half a dozen cups of firewater
under his belt and a IA Colt with
which to p%unctuate his remarks. They
KNOW that an Indian drunk is an In
dian possessing a desire to send his
fellow mortals to the happy hunting
grounds n about the only way to ex-
tinguish this desire is to iii him so
full of lead that his sorrowing relatives
may locate him for mineral, claim.
But as this method usually starts a
lot of trouble the citizens of Cham
berlain have gon to the root of the
trouble and will not sell or give the
Indians whisky.
"Nuppose an Indian demands it now."
remarked a man who had gone to
Chamberlain on an excursion, you
won't have any right to refuse him"
We'll" remarked a lanky cowpunch-
CT, when a white man in this part Of
the world says No to a redskin it goes.
II that jedge is so dern particular for
the Indians to have the booze he had
better come here and explain mat
ters."
The greater part Of the citizens Of
Chamberlain are overjoyed with the
proposed extension of the railroad, but
there are still a few of the cid timers
who y q railroad suspiciously and
grumble Of mo range these days"
These men IRE by degrees moving
further west across the river and their
places are being taken by the new
corners. The town. however, still re-
tains many of its former characteris-
tics. A youth from New York state
with an eye to business opened Q soda
