Fix up the Hospital.

Isn't it time that our dinky emer-
gency hospital was put in shape and
kept in condition for sick or injured
patients who are strangers in the city

eled by the removal of the large double
doors in front, which was necessary
when the building was used for fire
engine house and the lower floor divd-
ed into rooms, so that there might be a
reception room, kitchen and closet,
and the second story, which should be
reached by an elevator. divided into
two or more wards, and provided with

be on fire, the fire having caught ia the
woodwork above an over heated pipe
leading from the furnace under the

Are Entitled to Credit.

Mayor Wertheimer and the finance
committe Of the common council are
certainly entitled to much credit for
setting the Doherchek damage case for
the really magnificent sum of $3.50.
Had the matter gone into court and
been tried, there is no doubt hut that
a large verdict wonld have been rem
dored against the city which was cert
ainly liable for the drowning of Doher-
chek and his horse Que night last sum-
mer and even should it have been nee
essary to carry the case to the supreme
court and the city won. the expense
would be double the amount paid to
settle it.

made during the past twenty years said:
Twenty years more will see anoth
er revolution in the traction business.
Overhead wires and posts on the
streets will be done away with. A
man is how working at Watertown
building rwo cars, which are destined
to revOlutuuze the street and inter-
urban business, His cars will be pro-
PEELED BY gasoline engines. OF which
there will be two on each car, one in
case OF accident. These cars will
carry sixty passengers each; will be
able to be stopped in their length. 1t
claimed for them, that they can
be operated more cheaply than electric
cars and that they will save a large
initial ex penditure in the construction
Of roads, doing away entirely with
costly power plants and rensightly
wires and poles.''
'sFor city and interurban use he said.
I predict that, if the claims of the in
ventor can be fulfilled, these individual
gasoline cars will displace the electric
ones, just as the electric cars displaced
the horse cars quarter of a century
ago. Where travel is not heavy, but
gives promise Of future growth, these
cars should be the ideal equipment for

Another Blaze.

At one o'clock Tuesday morning the
fire bell called out many citizens who
found the little frame building directly
back of and across the street from the
Bodega ablaze. The fire had gotten
good headway and had the inside of
the building pretty we'll devoured.
The place was used by Mrs. Goodwin,
who has charge of the Minnekahta
block, as a laundry and she had been
washing the day before. Consequently
the laundry for the block was in the
building and was all destroyed, togeth.
er with much of their personal apparel.
The origin OF the fire cannot be deter
mined, some contending that it was
set and others beliving it was from the
stove It was fortunate that it was
noticed when it was, otherwise much
property might have been destroyed

Will Make Connections.

Chris Jensen, the former stage man
and now the manager of the Peoples
Telephone company at Hot Springs,
was in the city this afternoon calling
on old friends. Chris looks as though
the world has used bim we'll and that
time has dealt gently with him. He
says that Hot Springs will soou be one
of the best towns in the Hills, that all
of its people are prosperous and that
there are new residents ,settling there
all of the time. Chris says that he
hopes soon to have his telephone sys-
tenn connected with the northern Hills.
and that to do so connections will he
made with the line of the Nebraska
Telephone company at Wind Cave.
The Peoples Telephone has connec-
tions with all the camps and towns of
the southern Hills, Edgemont and
Chadron, while all of the farms in that
section of the country are connected
with it. 1t will be great convenience
to people living in this section when
the connections are made. Chris hopes
to have it accomplished soon, for the
work required will not take many days
to perform.-Lead Call.

mans, G. G. Fargo's, brother:
"James Fargo is the cattle king of.
the great Missouri Valley. His last
shipment carried away 255 head of the
finest cattle that ever boarded train
on Chicago market. One animal =
Galloway-tipped the scales at 1890
lbs. Fine pictures of the shipment
and of the elephant. Galloway can be
seen at the exhibit-room, new court
house. Mr.. Fargo has beautiful la ke
within few rods of the house stocked
with all kinds of the best fish. He has
many stands of bees, the best that are
hived, which produce over hundred
pounds to the hive of the best honey
All corn and other grain is ground
before it is hauled over to the cattle
He has over 500 cattle in the:feed yards
at the present writing He owns over
a thousand acres of Missouri Valley
land of which hundred dollars Ar
acre would not be any inducement a.
the land is not for sale. He does mo-
haul one pound of anything away from
the farm except after the same is fat
tened. Anyone having time to inspec

nit that James Fargo is truly cattl,
king"
