WEED AND WASTE.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
About their gardens to and fro
| see the busy people 90,
Or in each private orchard plot
Seeking a fruit that cometh not
In sunny light OF hopeful morns
They seek to gather grapes Of thorns
And ask a nurture for their needs
From ragged, mproductive weeds.
The weeds are fair in flower and shoot,
But only bear a spurious fruit;
And that which on the trees they find
Is tart of taste and harsh of rind
There in the gardens they complain
1t is too late to SOW again
The grief Of Iaborings misplaced
OF barren hours and seedtime's waste,
o blind in age and rash in youth,
Who have not learnt this common
truth;
In earth or spirit, that alone
Is harvested which hath been sown.

sort IN Wisconsin. and came here two
days ago. Charles L. kiewert, q dis

MIR. Kaufman Is negotiating for the

intends to leave just as soon as the

he and his wife will travel for a time

city.
Mr.. Kaufman entertains not the
slightest doubt that his wife is abso-

his faith that everything will be all
right in the end, he says the trouble
ana the gross Misrepresentation have
weighed severely on his mind, and Mrs.
Kaufman at one time, he said, suffered
almost complete mental collapse over
the charges made against her, so he is
determined to get away from the scene
or their sorrow after the trial. After
what has taken place, he says it will
be impossible for either of them to be
happy in their old home.

LEMONADE CAUSES TYPHOID.
Epidemic Feared in the Northern Part
of the State.

Ipswich. SD, July 19.-An epidemic
of typhoid fever may prove to be the
aftermath of the recent Milwaukee ex7
cursion to Evarts. Ten of the excur-
sionists from this place are down with
the disease. while reports from other
towns along the line swell the number
OF fever patients to 100, with probably
as many more from more distant points
and from the country districts which
contributed victims for the excursion.
An investigation has disclosed the;
fact that the lemonade which was dis
pensed at Evarts by the barrel on the
day Of the excursion was made from
water taken from an old well that had
not been used in years.
No arrests have yet been made, but IL
any deaths follow. the authorities I'M

RAPID CITY, sourn DAKOTA

Is the earth made up of three con-
eentrated spheres? A physicist says
that such is the case. The solid nucleus
he supposes to be between 5000 and
1000 miles in diameter and this Is sur
rounded by liquid substratum, outside
of which is the crust variously esti-
mated at seventy to 200 miles in thick
ness More than two centuries ago a
similar theory. Including the slow rota
ton of the inner solid sphere on ~ diff
ferent axis from that of the entire
globe, was held by DR.. Edmund haley
to account for the changes in the
earths magnetism. The axis of the
nucleus was thought to have been orig
inally that of the entire globe and to
the change of its course was attributed
the deluge. The iearth's internal heat
it is now pointed out may be accounted
for by the friction OF the differently
