Remember that there we're two days
OF the glorious Fourth OF July--and
who ever saw a printer that wouldn't
celebrate then consider the fact
that the office is short OF help and
long Oh job work and that ought to
be sufficient excuse for any sins OF

Ii any one had any doubt that the
First National Bank vas thoroughly
protected against burglars, all such
doubts would have been dispelled had
they been within ear shot when the
blamed gong went of Tuesday night.

nected with the battery and forth

wealth. Roberts county is located in the
extreme northeastern corner of South Da-
kota, on the heighth of land between Hud-
son bay on the north and the Gulf of Mex
leo on the south. Its surface soil is deep
rich, black loan, underlaid by grey,
colored clay, interspersed with lime or
marie. This subsoil reaches to depth of
from ten to forty. feet and is very retentive
OF moisture. After being exposed to the
atmosphere it is very productive. Wheat,
rye, oats, barley, speltz and potatoes are
sure crop and reach a stage of productive
ness equal to any in the United States in
this latitude. Corn is also sure crop and
gives remunerative returns. Apples, plums
and all varieties of small fruits are success
fully raised and there are very few farms in
the older settled part of the county without
at least small orchard.
In the western part Of the county and COW
erlng an average of one tier of townships,
are the Coteau hills, which reach an alti-
tude Of 7OOfeet above the valley. Here also
the soil is rich and deep and produces fine
crops, but in consequence of the different

ARM WAS AMPuTArED.

Result of Young Cushing's Accident at
 the Dept Yesterday Morning-Ex-
 pected to Recover.
 Roderick Cushing, seventeen years old, who lives with his father at 40 Third avenue, West Haven, was terri bly, injured at the railroad shops in the yards of the New Haven road at a little before ' o'clock yesterday morning Gushing was injured in jumping from train. Had he not been snatched from from in under the trucks of Q car by William Mcdonald, a railroad work man. it is likely that Cushing would have been instantly killed. Cushing is employed as an apprentice blacksmith in the shops of the railroad and comes in to work every day from West Ha- ven on the passenger train due at the depot at 6:35 o'clock,
 In jumping from the train before it had stopped Cushing slipped and in some manner got under the wheels, Policeman Spencer, who is on duty at the station summoned an ambulance at the New Haven hospital. At the hos pital it was found that Cushing's right leg was broken and his right arm badly crushed.
 At the hospital 1t was found neces- sary to amputate the arm, which was successfully done. Later last night the lad was resting as comfortably as could be expected and the physicians hope for his recovery,

last evening. Professor Phelps tribute to Franklin is that he was the great est man who eyer lived in the vest ern hemisphere" and he made com- parison between Franklin and Jona- than Edwards, showing that the men represented opposite extremes of thought and ideals, and how, taken to- gether, they represent every character istic American trait. Both Franklin and Edwards were Yale men, for Ed wards was a Yale man and member of the faculty, and although it is not gen. erally known Yale was the first uni versity to Ibestow on Franklin the de- gree of master of arts.
 A criticism was then given of Franklin's autobiography, which is considered by many judges to be the most entertaining book ever written in America. A general estimate of Frank lin's ability and character concluded the lecture.

BIG G-HEARTED JIM.

An elaborate production of a new comedy melodrama "Big-Hearted Jim, by w. L. Roberts, author of "On the Bridge at Midnight" is coming to the New Hayen' theater for three nights and Wednesday matinee, commencing next Monday night, with an unusually excellent company headed by George Klimt, one of the most successful actors who has recently come into prominence. He plays a Montana sheriff and runs the scale of human emotions in a re- markable variety of spirited scenes. Romance revenge, humor and pathos are woven into, not on exaggerated, clap-trap, sensational melodrama, but a wholesome natural, convincing play that rings true in it's presentation of western American life and character. The scenery settings for each of the four acts are pictures from life, includ- ing the stockade for protection against an expected Indian outbreak.

The actor who plays the role told an interviewer in New York recently that the kissing he had to do was a fearful bore. He look ed upon it as having to do so much kissing for so much week. He com plains because the management gave him a number of extra girls to kiss in the husking- bee scene.
