Rushm0re.
From the Enterprise:

From the Enterprises:
Rushmore's third annual gala da.
has passed into history and will be re
corded as one of the most successful
and enjoyable gala days the town has
ever had.
Wilbur Renshaw and Miss Clars
Malmquist came near meeting with
fatal accident last Saturday night
while going home from Rushmore
The horse Wilbur was driving was a
spirited one and when in he north
part of town, near Geo. Thompson's
residence,i it took fright at some wheels
from threshing machine that lay by
the roadside and commenced to kick
and plunge about. Just how it hap
pened no one knows, but during the
fracas one of the thills was broken
and penetrated the horses stomach
and tore it so badly that the intestines
came out and the horse had to be
killed. 1t was a valuable animal, they
having refused $12Ofor it only short
time ago. It was a lucky accident so
far as the occupants of the buggy
were concerned, as both escaped with
out injury.
Notwithstanding the high price of
lumber there is more building being
done in the vicinity Of Rushmore this
fall than has been done in any one
fall for several years. i It is an indica-
ton Of prosperity among the farmers
and when the farmers are prosperous
everybody is happy.
J.C. Thorn, who is ono of the oldest
settlers in Olney township, has sold
his half section farm and about Mar.
lst will move to Rushmore to reside
and enjoy the results of his thrift and
economy. The purchasers of the
farm are the Thorn Bros. and Herbert
Bros. and the price paid was $50 per
acre.
Work is progressing nicely on the
construction of the village sewer sys-
tenn and the job will be completed
before winter sets in.

MEAT GOES UP
Ten Dollars a Hundred Pounds
 Was Added on To-Day.

Beef took a jump this morning, not quite over the moon but evident ly will soon get there. Ten dollars a hundred pounds was the jump which makes it two cents a pound dearer to the consumer. Texas beef of the best quality which sold for six and half cents pound is now to be had for eight cents. And the beef trust says not guilty.
 It is the cattle raisers who are said to be at fault now For some time they have been fighting the trust, contending they were at its mercy in the market, the price was dictated to them and nothing went but what the trust said. The trust maintain ed it was working for the public good. It has been common report for years that the trust was work ing the public for the trusts own good. But now it advances to the foot lights of the public stage and as- serts that the cattle raisers are at the bottom of the trouble, the high and constantly going higher price of beef.
 The price of beef swas never so high as at present, and there seems to be no cure for it. Between the cattle men and the beef trust the public is obliged to furnish an ele- gant roast for somebody.

THE JOKER AT LARGE.
Worked One On the Good Natured
 Registrar of Voters This Time.

If Henry O'Connor. the democratic registrar of voters. knew who played a joke on him over the telephone the other day it is certoin the joker would not find his name on the vot- ing lists this coming fall. Mir O'Con- nor was deep in the mysteries of political majorities when he was called to the phone.
 '.I see that matter was wound up last night. Harry" said the voice over the wire.
 What matter?" asked the poll tician.
 The town clock" was the am swer. and bang went the transmitter on the far end of the wire.
 Turning vacantly around the dem oeratic registrar acclaimed himself thus. What the dickens do l care about the town clock. whether it's been wound up or wound down Nawihin' to me that I'm aware of; but would give a liver to know whc called me up." And then he re sumed his political multiplication.

THEATERRENOVATIONS
Polls VIII Present a Beautiful
 Appearance This Season.

A big surprise is in store for the ater-goers when the season opens at Polls. The lobby of the playhouse is being completely transformed and corps of Italian decorators are now at work. The new decorations will be very elaborate and when finished Polls will have one of the most at tractive entrances in New England.
 The color scheme will be blue and pink for the backgrounds and gar lands of flowers and frescoes of the most artistic patterns will form the principal part of the decorations. The panels on the side walls will be resplendent with groups of cupids, and here also will be numbers of floral figures and pretty decorative Iboarders.
 The lighting scheme will be en- tirely changed. Chandeliers of brass will hold the clusters of electric lights, and the entrance will be lighted with dozens of tiny lamps. A new electric sign with the word Polls" will be at the entrance. l Manager H. E. Parsons is a busy man these days managing the reno vation of the theater. Every seat in the house has been repolished and new carpets are being laid The out side entrance to the gallery is being paved in concrete and all the dress ing rooms have been newly painted. The ladies' parlor has been entirely refurnished.

LIQUOR BUSINESS QUIET.

There Is very little heard about the
liauor business in Yorkville and vicin-
ity these days, and the reason is evil
IDENTIFY that there Is very little liquor
business to hear Of.
Speaking of the matter a day or
two ago, an official who makes it his
business to keep in touch with the
situation, said: IF there is a regular
dealer in blind tiger liquor in York.
Vile at this time, I confess 1 am not
aware of the fact. 1 don't believe
there Is such q dealer. In fact don't
believe there has been less liquor sold
in this town In the last twenty five
years than now. l would not have
YOU understand that there are, no peo-
pie In the town who would not sell
liuuor. There are some here no doubt,
who make occasional sales. and it is
a common thing among certain ne
groes to slip in on Saturday after
Moons and at other times when they
have reason to expect crowds, bring
liqucr, sell it out as quickly as possi-
BILE and get away. Some Of these
have been caught, and wires have been
laid to catch others. But aside from
this the law Is being enforced remark
ably we'll, I think"
There Is still more or less blockad-
ing going on up in the northwestern
part Of the county close to the North
Carolina and Cherokee lines. The dis
tillers up that way are persistent
They make liquor in considerable
quantities and manage to dispose of
1t quite readily, to the people Of the
surrounding country and to customers
from a distance. Incidentally 1t might
be mentioned that party of show
people went up there last week, pro-
cured a quantity of liquor and the
entire outfit was drunk the night fol-
lowing.
The town authorities are keeping
pretty close tab on the local liquor
situation, and most of the people who
would otherwise risk a little retailing
on the sly are inclined to let the bus
mess alone.

"Friday, the Thirteenth" is taking
as we'll among the readers of The En-
quirer as 1t did in the magazine that
first produced it. 1t Is being read
quite generally, and the demand for
back numbers, which we are unable to
supply, is unusually strong.
They are cutting for lumber nova
days, timber that some Of the sawyers
say is too rough for firewood. Not
long ago a young landowner in the
western part of the county sold for
lumber 10000 feet of timber that he
had been calculating on selling for
fuel.
The ladies who have an ambition to
carry off the prizes at the chrysanthe-
mum show next fall should begin
to get busy. OF course, all the ladies
cannot win prizes, but all have 1t
within their power to produce some
mighty fine specimens of chrysanthe-
NUNS. 1t is principally a matter of
careful, painstaking attention.
They are having some fine fishing
up on Catawba river in the vicinity of
Wright's ferry. Black bass seem to
be abundant and they are biting
splendidly. A report of a few days
ago was to the effect that a fourteen
year-old boy caught about fifteen
pounds of black bass in less than an
hour, with hook and line. The fish
weighed from two to three pounds
each.
