A TEMPORARY CLOSE.
The Manstay Will Be Opened Up
Soon.

The Mainstay at Keystone, which
has been shut down temporarily, will
be opened up as soon as the arrange
ments can be completed. The closing
down was occasioned by some hitch
in the financing of the property. The
mine itself was in a most prosperous
condition. New slopes which have
ben opened up are full of the high
est grade ore that has ever been
worked in the mine, and the question
of water, which was troublesome for
a time. is no longer a problem as the
pumps handle it satisfactorily. In the
cyanide department the work is so
far largely experimental, but it is be-
lieved that a practical application Of
cyanide can soon be made to the ores
of this property. 1t is stated on good
authority that the mill will begin OPP
erations within few days.

FOUR IN AUTO CRASH.
Car Dashes Over Ten.Foot Cut and 10
Smashed.

Dashing over q precipice about ten
feet high in an automobile which was
going at speed of thirty miles an
hour, and escaping death almost by
q miracle, was the experience OF q
party OF Aberdeen autoists composed
OF DR.. R. l.. Murdy, his two nieces,
Serelda and Lorraine Murdy, and Miss
Minnie Harris. DR.. Murdy sustained
badly sprained shoulder; Miss Ser
elda was severely injured about the
knee; Miss Harris received bad
scalp wound, while Miss Lorraine es-
capped with only few scratches.
The accident took place where the
new right of way of the Minneapolis
& st. Louis road crosses one of the
roads between Aberdeen and Nina,
Just beyond West Hill. The party had
gone out for a spin in the early even
ing aud were returning home when the
accident occurred.
There are two roads which cross
the right Of way in close proximity to
one another, one of which has a cross
ing and the other has not. In the
darkness DR.. Murdy, who was driving
the machine, took the wrong road.
The party saw the precipice when It
was too late to prevent an accident,
and going at full speed, the heavy ma
chine plunged downward.
Fortunately all Of the occupants had
time to throw themselves free from
the auto, so that none was caught be-
meath the touring car. The machine
was badly smashed and the party was
taken to Aberdeen by a farmer who
happened to be passing in wagon

LATEST NEW TOWN.
To Be Established Between BonesteeI

The latest new town in the southern
part of the state will be established in
the near future on the proposed extern
sion of the Chicago & North Western
railroad between Bonesteel and Her
rick. The new railroad will be ex-
tended to the Trip county line, and
will penetrate the coded portion of
the Rosebud Indian reservation.
Steps already have been taken to es-
tablish bank in the new town as
soon as it is started. Some of the
leading capitalists of Gregory county
are financially interested in the new
banking institution. 1t is e.. pected
everything will be in readiness sn the
bank can commence business about
Aug 1. The exact location of the new
town has not yet been determined
upon and it's name has not yet been
selected. The location of the new
town insures its commercial impor-
lance, 1t will be the nearest railroad
point for the Naper and Jamison, Neb,
trade, and will have excellent trade
territory in every direction.

WAREHOUSE MAN BREAKS LAW.
Again Are Taking More Than Legal
Weiuht of Grain

Again Are Taking More Than Legal
Weight of Grain.
The state board of railroad commits
sioners again is receiving complaints
from points in the state in regard to
warehouse men. when purchasing
grain, taking more pounds per bushel
than is permitted by law. Numerous
complaints of this character were
made to the board last year, and a
number of the cases were carefully in
vestigated, with the result that they
We're found to be based upon good
foundation. In accordance with the
result of the investigations, the board
issued warning to the warehouse
men OF South Dakota in general, call
ing attention to the law governing the
purchasing of grain, which makes it
misdemeanor for any warehouse
man to take more pounds per bushel
than is specified by law. It is likely
that II the practice is not stopped the
railroad commissioners will take steps
to enforce the law to the letter.

She Liked Notoriety.

The reason she got so much noto-
riety was partly because she was al

partly because she wanted to be noto-

she would go straight out and do
something else But she was kind
hearted girl; there wasn't anything
vicious about her, either. She never
got into fights or wanted to pull a
gun, or anything like that She was
married to hack driver named Char
lie Burke, up in Montana along in the
nineties some time but she didn't live
with him very long.
"She went to the Eastern cities and
showed in museums in what she called
her scouting clothes, and travelled
around considerable, but some way
the Hills always kept calling her back.
She'd come for few months and
things wouldn't seem like they used
to and she'd go away again. But
than she'd hear the wind in the pine
trees and see the lights in the gay old
streets Of little old Deadwood, and re-
member the boys and all, and she'd
come back. The last time she came
