Lots of "Pl"

The worst accident that can befall
a printing office except a fire happened
to the GRAPHIC last week just as the
forms were going on the press and peo-
pie gathering at the park to plant
trees-among whom the Office force
expected to be little later The first
page slipped from the foreman's hands
as he was sliding it on the bed of the
press and the entire contents-two
columns of reading matter (mostly
commissioners proceedings and four
columns of advertisements-w into
|. ileap on the floor. The mess was
shoveled into coal hod and set one
side, the fourth, or editorial page,
shortened two inches and shifted to
the firstpa and a page ad improviscd
to take the place of the editorial page
and business resumed with delay OF
but forty-fve minutes. Pretty quick
work, a printer will tell you. 1t was
the first accident in the way OF "pi''
in the otlice--but there is always a
first time.

table at the Wldmann, Mitchell, next
day. The first course at the banquet
was "Consomme en- Cups" which in
plain English means mighty thin soup

Henry Bonner's Runaway

AS Henry Bonner. wife and daughter
and a case Of eggs we're skimming
along into town Saturday morning as
pretty as you please, a piece of paper
blowing IN the road opposite the resi-
dence of John Parker set in motion
about as an exciting a runaway as one
often sees. One of the horses started
to kick and the team whi1lcd into
the northeast corner of Parker's
yard, over the sidewalk, then straight
south across the front yard, out the
opposite side-taking a wire fence and
posts with them into the street-then
up the road again toward town and
leaving the buggy and occupants
right side up exactly where they cross
ed the side walk into the yard. The
buggy pole and whipple.trees were
made into kindllng wood and the har.
ness torn up, but neither of the three
in the buggy were injurcd-and not
an egg in the case strapped on behind
/, scrambled. One horse went north and
the other south. The former was
captured over by G. G. loves and the
other at the Catholic cemetery. How
the team and rig could make a COM
Dlete circle in space of one hundred
feet and not have injured anyone is a
mystery. We woulu like to see Henry
Bonner drive chariot race in a cir.
Gus some time.

The Milwaukee Extension Causing
Plcnty Of Wild Guesses

The Plankinton Herald this week
has the following to say of the extern
sion OF the Milwaukee from Armour
north:
Chas. johnson was in from Aur-
ora township Yesterday and re-
ports the surveyors at work south
OF his place and says that agents
for the Milwaukee road have pur-
chased a half section two miles
south of the county line and three
miles east of this city and will To-
cate a town thereon. The location
is 124 miles from Armour and
about IL from Plankinton, The
surveyors are now at work this
side of this guessing" station.
we all have a guess coming and
the Herald'S guess has been from
the start that the Milwaukee Will
not extend as far north as the
Chamberlaln.M Mitchell lire. When
operations now in force have ceas-
ed, the Armour branch will Simply
have been extended another sta
tion or two. What's your guess?
AS dad Answorth would put it.
walt anc see what you will see."
Saturdays Sioux City Tribune spec
ulates that the Milwaukee company
has changed its mind about the extern
sions of the Chas. Mix lines; that the
line to Orient is to 60 from Armour
through White Lake and Miller and
not from Platte through Kimball. The
Tribune says that the line from Platte
will be extended sooner or later, but
when it is it will hit the Mitchell
Chamberlain line few miles this side
of Chamberlain. That's where the
Tribune is badly Off. 1t will cost a
good many thousands of dollars less
money 10 strike the main line east of
Pukwana, and SO long as there is moth
ing to be gained by building through
the rougher and more rolling country
in the western part of the county the
extension will most likely strike
kimball.
Mitchell Republican: a. j. Hart,
who has charge of the construction of
the Milwaukee bridge across the Miss.
ouri river at Chamberlain, arrived in
the city this morning and left on the
afternoon train for Minneapolis. Mr.
Hart said that work on the bridge
was fairly under way now, the prelim
mary work having been near finished
He Thought that by September l the

In order to make the situation clear
before the board meets, Assessor

letters to parties who have been as
sessed for mortgages since they first
gave in their assessments this spring.
After the assessment is made, Assessor
Strain has been making an abstract

been given in previously AS many
taxpayers are prone to not give in
mortgages that are held by them, the
system started by Mr.. Strain has re-

property that was previously lost
This year hundreds of mortgages
have been found which were not turn

few months ago. They vary in
amount from q few hundred to many
thousands of dollars, and altogether
swell the assessment roll considerably.
The notices are being sent to the hold

will know of the action of the assessor
and may appear before the board OF
equalization and show reason why the
assessment should not be made If
they so desire.
