WHEN JEFFERSON WAS HOST.
Formal Dinners at White House Par
[, taken Of In Gloom.

Jefferson was q methodical man,
keeping account of all his expendi-
lures, and the yelluwed accounts kept
while he was in the White House
show that he spent $4,000 for liquors
alone during his term Of eight years.
says writer in the Home Magazine.
When we take into consideration the
fact that glasses clinked merrily
around the cabinet table as well az
the dining table, and that An open
buffet was kept for all callers, this
amount is not surprising. Notwith-
standing the low prices, Jefferson
often spent as high as $50 on his
small dinners, wine list not included,
and he was most particular about DIS
wines and brandies.
Jefferson's state dinners were usual
ly limited to about 40 guests. The
large dining room was not considered
finished, so when his guests were
numerous he had long table placed
in the center of the great east room,
and dismal enough It must have been,
with its bare walls, many windows
and draughts and insufficient light
from the candles, which dropped wax
tears at every wind which blew up
from the Potomac. No wonder Jener-
son and several of his successors
locked forward dismally to the state
affairs and cheerfully to the informal
dinners.

HUNT FOR A HANeMAN.
Difficulty In Finding Some One to Ex-
ecute . Murderer.

The British army was once In dim-
culties through the lack Of hangman.
Murder was committed by a soldier
IN the Crimea, but nobody could be
found to carry out the sentence OF the
.courtmartial.
It was announced that EGO and a
free discharge would be granted to
the man undertaking the task. At
last a man volunteered. He was q
newcomer to the army.
On the night prior to the date fxed
for the execution they locked up the
hangman in a stable to keep him safe.
In the morning the party at the gal
lows waited, but there was no hang
man. He had gone mad during the
night, or else he was now Stimulating
madness.
The officer in command turned to
one of his captains with: Captain,
you will have the goodness to hang
the prisoner!" The captain changed
countenance, but he pulled himself to-
gether, and appealed to the sergeants
with: (Which of you will hang this
man?"
And to spare his captain, one Of
the men volunteered. He afterward
had the satisfaction OF fiogging the
man who had volunteered and failed.

Rameses II died 1000 years ago,

is the story Of his marriage, which

Chicago, in his first preliminary report
Of the expeditions which he has been
making among the temples and her
oglyphics along the Nile. He found
the account OF this In the Sun temple
Of Abu Simbel, which is one Of the
principal buildings erected BY King
Rameses. To tell the story It required
an inscription Of Al lines, each about

Where curfew Should RIna.

SHOT COMRADE
FORl2 DOLLARS
Brown County Man Held for
Murder

Aberdeen, July 8.-A man whose
Identification has not yet been estab-
lished. was murdered in a pasture
adjoining the farm house of Gust
Wahl, about two miles from Colum-
bia, a town northwest of this city.
A few hours later, a youth, giving
his name as VIII Moscr, was arrested
by the constable.
The victim was in Aberdeen Fri.
day on his way north looking fol
work. When he reached Columbia
he met Moser who has been living
there for the past three weeks. They
struck up an acquaintance and
Moser was the last person seen with
the murdered man. The two men
were seen by Mrs Wahl when they
passed her place and a few minutes
later, three shots were heard. Mrs
Wahl saw one man run away. She
notified Columbia and w. w. Austin
and E. l., Willitts of Aberdeen, who
happened to be there in an automo.
bile, started for the farm. Constable
Horseley followed in buggy. The
trio made an investigation and later
the constable found Moser in farm
house few miles from the scene OF
the murder. The youth was taken
to Columbia and searched. The sum
of $12 was found in his possession as
well as a revolver with three new
shells. When he left Columbia he
had no money and when asked to ac-
count for the sum found in his
clothes he failed to give a satisfac-
tory account. In the meantime the
sheriff in this city had been notified
and deputy went to bring the pris-
oner here. When the deputy reach
ed Columbia, he took the prisoner
into d room where the corpse lay
and compelled him to look into the
CHASTITY features. The young man
shrank away in terror. The bullet
that had caused death had penetrat-
ed the left eye and the condition of
the features was enough to startle
the most hardened criminal.
Moser denies all knowledge of the
crime. He says his home is at
Strawberry Point, Ia, and that after
meeting the murdered man at Col
umbia he did not see him again.
While at Columbia the youth purch-
ased the revolver in his possession
and he frequently boasted he would
as soon kill a man as look at him.
He had no money and how he lived
is a mystery. He craved yellow
back" literature and was constant
cigarette smoker.

AN EVEN RACE OF
ROADS TO RAPID
Northwestern and Milwaukee 10
Meet at Rapid City
A Short Line Building to WyOm-
ing Coal Fields

The delightful race of the Milwaukee
and the Northwestern across the re-
servation country for Rapid City, the
one from Chamberlain, the other
from Pierre, after years of promise
land delay. is about to come to a
Eclose. A dispatch to the Argus
Leader from Rapid City says that
| it is>now likely that both lines will
be completed on the same day which
will be about the middle of the
month. Both companies have ex-
pected to reach Rapid City first, but
each has encountered unexpected diff
ficulties, and the interesting announ-
cement is now made that possibly
both may run a through train into
Rapid City on the same day.
In addition to this it is announced
that the Western Wyoming Railroad
company will be extended from
Mystic into rich coal lands of Wyom-
ing, which will give the eastern part
of the state the best of semi-soft
coal at prices lower than can be
made by the Illinois mines. Not
only that but the government has
given permission to use for the max
ing of lumber the timber in the Hills
which has been attacked by the pine
beetle. 1t has proved impossible to
stop the ravages of the pine beetle
and saw mills have been started, and
are now cutting the pine trees up
into lumber for sale in South Dak-
ota at lower prices than lumber can
be secured in any other market.
All these things point to good
times in South Dakota during the
coming years. Cheaper fuel, cheap
er lumber, better railway connect
ions, and increased immigration all
indicate better times and bigger
growth. 1t is believed that both of
the roads mentioned are going
through to the coast. This is parti-
cularly suspected of the Northwest
ern which is expendlng about four
millions at Pierre in improvements.
The weight of the rails, the extent
and permanency of the Improvements
and the painstaking work done on
the western roadbed, all point to
a coast line. 1t is believed that the
Milwaukee which is one of the great
est systems in the country is headed
coastwise also. and this will give the
state two lines to the coast within
few years.
Everything points to fat years in
South Dakota for sometime to come.
The state will now enter upon an era
of rapid growth, and the estimate OF
a million people within five years
should not be far from right. Argus
Leader.
