METROPOLITAN
France of Oudh. .

The brave men and fair women
of the Roosevelt club invaded Still
water Saturday and there gave. the first
public performance Of "The Rance of
Oudh,' this years operatic production
of the famous club. That the finished
result Of over two months unremitting
labor is successful opera is now
fact of which Minneapolis will be more
fully assured tomorrow evening when
the Roosevelters open at the Metro
politan for a threenight and matinee
engagement.
The Roosevelt ssladies" naturally at
tract the most attention and the clever
work of the principals and members OF
the chorus is astonishing to the. ordI-
nary observer of male and female
idiosyncracies. Nor is the audience
aware of the completeness Of the
illusion. The decolette gowns worn
with all the t'manner" Of ladies to
the manor born are only a part Of the
makeup that transforms the rough
rider into the dainty soubrette or the
statuesque Mrs. Crosburn Partbury.
There are pretty lace petticoats, dainty
silk, stockings, beribboned corset COW
ers and other articles Of lingerie that
are a mere maze of mystery to the or
binary male animal. "You would be
surprised said Stage Director Kost
to a. visitor behind the scenes at dress
rehearsal, sto know the amount of
rivalry that exists as to which member
of the chorus can wear the smallest
corset. The danger of getting the cor
set so small that proper singing will
be interfered with is forgotten in the
vain. desire for small waist, and the
difference between 2511a inch and a
26-inch scorset is of the greatest i'm
portance.
The care in this particular is typica
of the way the whole feminine ap
parel is considered by the proud lady
clubman and the effect is stunning
and exceedingly playlike chorus.

especially created for three Of the
=cleverest comedians in the business,
namely, Bickel, Watson and Wrothe,
who starred last season in "Me, Him
and IT, But uTom, Dick and Harry
is an infinitely better show if public
approval all over the country is any
criterion. Bickel, Watson and Wrothe
are circus men; in fact, three Of the
best clowns and platform comedians
who ever shared honors with the cake

are immensely clever in all they say

IS of the kind that whistles and

crops.
Yield for One Year.
To show the reader what the state
can produce, | present a table Of sta
tistics for 1905, as compiled by the
State Historical society of South Da-
kota, the table comprising the number
of bushels of grain grown in the state:
Wheat, 100000 bushels; corn, 3d.
100000 bushels; oats, 100000 BUSH
els; barley. 100000 bushels: spelt,
100000 bushels; flax and rye. 2.OOO,-
600 bushels; potatoes, garden truck
and fruits, financial value, $4,000 900.
This table in itself serves to illustrate
the great fertility of the soil of South
Dakota.
Another great Industry of the state
is cattle raising. Back east you hear
stories OF the great cattle ranges Of
the West, but the cattle ranges OF
South Dakota. are the finest In Ameri-
ca. Thousands of acres of land are
roved over by the sleek fat cattle and
sheep that feed the country The
grasses Of South Dakota are especially
adapted to the feeding of cattle, for
they are nutritious and sweet.
According to the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, there are
some $50 varieties Of grasses found in
six inches to eight feet. AS the soil
OF the state is abundantly watered, the
climate delightful these grasses are
never destroyed save by fire, but the
influx of immigration into the state
has practically prevented this calam-
ity for all time. Cattle can feast upon
these grasses almost the whole year
round, and even after snow falls they
nose their way down to the grass and
feed upon it. These grasses account
for the high value of the cattle grown
In South Dakota, and it is due to
these grasses and the healthful cli-
mate that hog cholera is an unknown
quantity In the great state of South
Dakota.
On this account alone the high in
dustry In South Dakota has reached
such proportions as to erdanger the
standing of other states in regard to
the number Of hogs on the hoof ship

try. This fact, combined with the inn
mense quantity of corn grown in
South Dakota, and it's value in polish.
ing off, so to speak, hogs for market,
has made packers look upon South Da-
kota hogs as choice articles, and they
are willing to pay high prices for
them. Since the influx of travellers
into South Dakota, the hog industry
has been on the increase. and this,
together with the immense number of
cattle shipped out of the state on the
hoof for foreign markets, has placed
South Dakota in an enviable position
as a cattle state.-Vanderhoof in Min

A relief train was run out from

Grand Forks, N. D., July 24-There
is not telephone or telegraph wire in
service west Of Fargo, and it is impos-
sible to reach Valley City. Passen-
gers on incoming Northern Pacific
trains at Fargo claim that a heavy
windstorm at Alta, six miles east Of
Valley City, as the train passed
through there, had blown trees, tele-
graph and telephone poles and done
considerable othe rdamage.

Fifteen-year-oId Boys Boast of Holding
Up a Man.

carrying concealed weapons When
taken to the station the be, stated in
a bragsadocia manner that they had
held up man few hours before in the
Yards of the Northern Pacific and at
the point of their revolvers had make
him give up his cash.
Investigation was made, and it was
learned that the youthful desperadoes.
who are about fifteen years old, had
really held up an old man, whose
name could not be learned, and had
secured the magnificent sum of IL
cents
The boys were armed with cheap re-
volvers and said that it is their inten-
lion to become holdup men. They also
said that this was their first venture
into the business and that the returns
were not as great as they desired.
The matter will be taken up by the

OUTLOOK GOOD FOR BIG CROP.
South Dakota Conditions Are Most
PROMISING,

With the temperature ranging from
Sc to SO in the shade, and several CO.
pious showers we'll distributed, corn
has made marked growth during the
past week, while wheat, oats, barley
rye and speltz have kept even pace
toward maturity. Some barley and
oats is almost ready for cutting;
wheat heads are fast developing and
are of good size and plump.
The reported existence of black rust
does not apply to this section-care-
full watch of fields is being kept and
UP to this date no black rust has been
reported Some fields are more or
less tinged with red rust. but this APP
pears not to hinder the progress of
the crop which is very rapidly ma
turing.
Flax, in very many fields, is in bios
som and on the average may be said
to be in fair condition, although the
crop as whole does not give promise
OF coming up to expectation. Haying
is In progress, and the crop is abun-
dant and of good quality.

INTEREST IN TIN uNABATED.
Much Mining Property to Be Worked
for the Useful Metal.

The American Tungsten company,
which property, located near the old
Addie mine at Hill City, has closed for
repairs. A shaft has been sunk 100
feet deep and large amount of sur
face work has been done and tunnel
run some distance into the hill. The
ten-stamp mill is nearly completed.
Work will be resumed as soon as the
necessary repairs are made. In the
meantime r. ]. TruaX, one of the prin-
cipal stockholders and the manager of
the company, is developing a wolfram
proposition lying to the east of the
American Tungsten company's ground.
Mr.. TruaX owns this property and con-
siders it one of the most promising
and valuable of this kind in the
southern Hills.
The interest in tin is unabated. w.
l.. Meyer of Pittsburg, who has been
looking over the tin situation here for
some time past, has obtained a lease
and bond on the Matten property,
formerly belonging to the Harvey
Peak, and a deal involving the Boz

DOCTORS DON'T REPORT.

Supt. Doane Robinson of the de-

finding trouble in securing the re-
CURED data for his bureau from doc
tors who reside near the state line
in other states and practice in this
state. He has called the matter to
the attention of the attorney general
for an opinion as to the liability of
such physicians under the law of this
state when they practice in South
Dakota, and will require them to make
the necessary report if possible.
