Richard Bell highly esteemed cit
izen of this city died suddenly Mon
day evening from hemorrhage OF the
of the lungs. Mr.. Bell had not been
feeling well for some time but had
kept about and on Sunday wheeled his
wife, who is an invalid, to church
twice. On Monday evening about six
O'Clock he was attacked With a severe
coughing spell while in the kitchen
and it is thought burst blood vessel
in his lungs. He sank to the floor
and in very few moments he passed
away in the presence of his wife and
Prof. Brown who resides in a portion
of the dwelling and was called by Mrs.
Bell. The family physician was tel
ephoned for but upon arriving saw
that he could do nothing.
The deceased was born in Albany
county, N. Y, August 4, 1884, and
was married to Miss Palmer, a sister
OF U. d. Palmer Of this city, Dec. "a,
1862, and came west to Sparta, Wis,
in 1864. The following year he en-
listed in the Union army and bade his
young wife goodbye to serve his
country in the war OF the rebellion.
After serving seven months he met
with an accident so that he was Grip.
pied for life. In 1880 he came to South
Dakota and took up q homestead near
White where he lived until 1887 when

The Parker New Era, which is print
ing the Bible in serial form, appeals
to us to tell why it was that Pharoah
declined to let the children of Israel
leave Egypt. That's dead easy. Old
Pharoah was stalwart, and was in
the habit of having things come his
way. How was he to know that the
Crawford Moses had the Mighty Jeho-
yah on his side? He hadn't learned
the state motto that "Under God the
people rule" Although we hate to
say it about a stalwart, Pharoah was a
good deal of sucker. II he had con-
ceded that the majority was against
him at the locust primaries, the
slaughter of the innocents and other
plaques, and had taken his medicine
like true stalwart, he needn't have
been overwhelmed by that state con-
vention in the Red Sea. .--Groton Inde-
pendent.

IN MUSICAL CIRCLES

1t is well known fact among those
who have taken any interest in the
matter that Brookings now has the
very best band it ever had, and many
who have heard them play of late ar
of the opinion that it is the best ba: (
in the state. To many it is matter
OF surprise that no more attention is
given by our people to the keeping up
of the organization. The Brookings
band, if given the proper support,
would do more towards advertising
the city than any other factor that
might be thought Of The members
OF it serve without compensation and
spend one or two evenings a week in
preparing music for the! pleasure of
everyone in the city. The organiza-
ton has for the past few years given
one concert year, and these have
been we'll patronized in the main, but
if the proper interest was shown by
our people there is no doubt but that
more concerts would be given during
the season. In many cities OF like
size the leader of the band receives a
stipulated salary OF from $50 to 800 a
month, and he does nothing else but
train the bandmen so that when any
thing Of importance is going on in
the city the band is able to furnish
the best possible music. There are
many ways of raising this necessary
money, and either one OF the ways is
an easy one. In some of these cities
subscription list is passed around to
those who have the interest of the city
at heart and each one is asked to give
certain amount per mOnth-nOt nec-
essarily large amount for each per-
son. In other places.the city council
appropriates a stipulated sum-and
not beggarly sum at that-for the
support Of the band. This seems the
more reasonable plan, as all the tax
payers have the opportunity to enjoy
the music. The band itself could be
made self supporting by the giving OF
of an indoor concert each month dur
ing the winter-say for seven months
during the year. An admission fee
could be charged of say, l5c for each
concert, or the series of seven for 81 90.
II 600 of these course tickets could be
sold the question would be solved, for
there would be enough single admis-
sion tickets sold for each concert to
bring the amount up to 800 or $500
for the season. There are approxi-
mately 800 families in the cities, and
if each family would only purchase
one season ticket all would be we'll.
Something should be done in this
matter at once so that the excellent or
ganization now together could be
maintained. Let some one, or some
other organization take up this
scheme and push it to successful
conclusion.

The Twenty. fifth Annual Meeting Of
the Baptists of the state was held in
the First Baptist church OF Brookings
beginning Wednesday Of last week
and closing Sunday evening. The
homes Of the Baptist people and their
friends were filled with the visitors
from other parts of the state and from
outside the state attending the meet
ings. Nature retaining still the green
garb OF summer, enhanced her beauty
with the crown of clear air and brilliant
sunshine, contributing her share to
the enjoyment of the occasion. The
main purpose OF the meeting was to
transact business pertaining to the
kingdom of God. At the same time
such addresses and sermons were de-
livered as would give encouragement,
instruction and inspiration to the
workers in the field.
The first session, Wednesday morn
ing, Mrs. Patterson OF Parker presid-
ing, Was QcNOttu W MOulSH WI n >
and was participated in by Miss Swartz,
Mrs. Hackett, Mrs. Lawrence, Miss
Ross and Mrs. Bryant who discussed
important questions connected with
woman's work for women.
On Wednesday afternoon the first
session OF the Minister'S Union began
with a devotional service led by Rev.
S. Nelson, followed by the election Of
officers as follows: President, Rev. S.
Nelson, and Secretary and Treasurer,
Rev. l.. +. Viets. Papers were dis
cussed as follows: "The Preachers
Use OF Psychology" by Rev. l.. E.
Viets, Watertown; "a Progressive Re-
ligion," by DR.. Norton, Madison;
"Baptist Polity," by Rev. G. E..
Morphy, Brookings; "The Spiritual
Life of the Minister" by Rev. F. E.
Hudson, and very able sermon on
missions by Rev. w. c.. King, now
general missionary for the state. The
evening address was one of great pow
er on the subject, "The Human Fibers
in Evangelism" by DR.. West of St.
Paul.

To Our Patrons

AS a general answer to numerous
and varied inquiries frequently made
Of photographers and as offering few
independent suggestions the following
paragraphs may be useful to our pa
irons.
1t is we'll to bear in mind that blues
photograph somewhat lighter and reds
somewhat darker than they appear to
the eye: that pale blue or very light
cream cOlored dress will generally pho
tograph a little more satisfactorily
than pure white. Violent contrasts
in colors are not desirable. Black
velvet or black broadclOth are not de-
sirable stuffs to wear when sitting for
a photograph.
1t is not usually we'll to photograph
the full figure STANDING unless train
skirt is worn. Wedding photographs,
are, from necessity, an exception.
The point suggested is somewhat
delicate one, but these words are of
course not intended for the reader but
are only to be mentioned to some ac-
quaintance who is thinking of being
photographed. Complexion powder
deadens the surface OF the skin and
makes the obtaining Of the fine model
ing so desirable in photograph diff
ficult matter. II it is used to great ex-
cess it produces CHASTITY effect that
no care in making the negative and
no amount Of retouching can entirely
overcome. Never mind freckles; they
don't trouble us or affect the finished
product; powder is likely to do both.
When bringing children for pictures
kindly let us know beforehand. 1t
will be much to the mutual advantage
OF patron and photographer.

NOT WAIT TILL LATE. Order early.
