A Sad Case.

The following account, under Top.
bar date Of the 18th, appeared in a num-
Der of eastern daily papers. 1t refers
to q woman who had"lived in Pierre for
twenty years or more, and who has be-
come noted for two disabilities more
to be pitied-to wit: A weak mind and
hunch-back:
II want to find q homestead, !" was the
cry of the strange old woman who ap.
peared in this region few days ago.
She was on foot, and it later developed
that she had walked the entire distance
from Fort Pierre, forty or fifty miles
away. When discovered walking along
the prairie trails leading to this portion
of the coded Sioux lands between the
Missouri river and the Black Hills she
was carrying her shoes and stockings in
her hand. She was badly exhausted
when found and cared for. The woman
was clearly deranged. but was able to
state that her name was Ellen McCum-
Der, and that she had been employed in
Fort, Pierre hotel. Soon after com
mencing her wanderings she CHANGED
to strike the Kemp ranch, some dis
lance out from Fort Pierre. Mrs.
Kemp endeavored to persuade her to
remain at the ranch or return to Fort
Pierre, but she would do neither, insist,
Ing that she must find a homestead
Steps have been taken to have her re
turned to the place from which she
came, so she may receive the care which
her mental condition warrants.

City Council.

. 4 - II T. y
a special meeting Of the council and
citizens was held Tuesday evening to
consider the matter Of an incandescent
city lighting plant. The council cham
Der was crowded with those who had
an interest In the question.
Two propositions were presented.
One was that the undertaking be turned
over to private capital to install the
plant, with 8 stipulation that the city
buy the plant as soon as 1t is financially
able, and the money from private
sources was guaranteed, the price Of
purchase to be fixed at actua: cost.
The other plan was for the city to
issue Its own paper for the cost Of the
plant, and assume the discount, the
profits OF the business from the start
guaranteeing handsome profit.
The matter was discussed pro and
con for several hours anl finally laid
over until the regular meeting ID Sep
TENDER, when decision will probably
be made. The Free Press is strongly
