Tom Peever's Dream.
Editor STANDARD


Every one knows Tom Peever,
one of the merchant princes of
Sisseton and by the same token,
everyone knows what a whole
souled fellow he is, always there
with an open hand to help any
institution or enterprise in need
of financial aid and there is
many a man who has him to
thank for the necessities of. life
Tom doesn't tell these things,
he is too modest, but the fellows
whom he has Accommodated do
| don't wish to violate any con-
fdence, but was in The Pee
yer Mercantile Co.'S big store the
day after Christmas and Tom
told me of a dream he had
Christmas eve. | have taken
the liberty to set it to verse.
Tom said he was sitting in his
office after the days rush was
over and must have fallen to
sleep,
And us slept there
This VISION came to view,
And L saw an angel enter
Dressed i'll garments bright and new
Said the angel I'm from heayen,
The Lord just sent me down
To bring you up to glory.
And put on your golden crown
YOU We been friend to every one.
And worked hard. night and day
You've trusted many thousands
And from few received your pay
So we want you up in glory.
For you've la bored hard
| And the good Lord is preparing
| Your eternal, just reward"
Then the angel and the merchant
| Started up toward glory gate,
But when passing close to hades
The aagel murmured. Wait
| I've place | wish to show you
It's the hottest place in HE'LL
| where the ones who never paid YOU
In torment fore yer dwell"
/ And behold the merchant saw there
/ His old patrons by the scere,
And grabbing up his chair and fan.
He wished for nothing more
He desired TO sit and watch them
AS they'd sizzle. SINCE and burn;
| And his eyes would rest on debtor,
| Whichever way they'd turn.
Said the angel, come on Peever.
There are pearly gates to see,
| But the merchant only muttered.
This is Heaven enough for me-
Then Tom awoke and foanC
that the stove near which he
sat was red hot, and he was
sweating like June bride.

Nor YET DETERMINED BY
WHAT ROUTE FLEET WILL

POSSIBLY COME BY SUH CANAL
Admiral Evans Merely Gave His Own
OpiniOn-NOt an Official
Statement

Washington, D. c., Dec. 22.-"The
programme for the return of the bat
tleship feet is matter that has been
discussed among the officials of the
Navy Department, but as yet no de-
eision has been reached and will not
be for some time to come" said Sec
rotary of the Navy Metcalf today.
The Secretary's remark was called
out by wireless message from the
flagship Connecticut stating that Ad-
mlral Evans had authorized the AS
sociated Press to say it is his personal
belief that the Navy Departments
present intention is to have the bat
tleship fleet return by way of the
Suez canal next summer or fall. As
the President, through Secretary
Loeb, previously had spoken to the
same effect, it seems clear that Ad-
miral Evans statement was not sug-
guested by any definite move so far
determined upon by those supreme
in authority.
In naval circles the opinion pre-
walls that at most only a squadron
composed Of such vessels as the voy-
age to the Pacific shall have demonst-
rated to be 1.-The pick of the feet"
will be sent home through the Suez
canal, while the remainder will take
the shorter route around the Horn
1t Is not likely, however, that all
sixteen battleshipS will make the re-
turn voyage, as the desirability of q
stronger fleet in the Pacific NAV be
met by the retention of perhaps sew
eral of Admiral Evans ships in those
waters. But, like Admiral Evans
belief as to returning via the Suez
canal, the question of permanently re-
inforcing the Pacific squadron has
not progressed beyond the discussion
stage, and its final determination
hinges upon developments of the
next six months.

CHRISTMAS EVE TRAGEDY
Resulting In Death of a White Man
and Two Negroes.

"aycroSs, Ca, Dec. 24.-Today
shortly before noon Wallace Dyal, a
woodsman employed by W. L. Hin
son & Co., at turpentine still. six
miles from wildwood and about eigh-
teen miles from Waycross, was shot
down ~ a crowd of negroes who were
lighting themselves. Before dying he
shot and killed instantly two negroes
This report reached Waycross with
a request for the sheriff and deputies
at o'clock, and since that time moth
ing further has been received though
arrests are expected tonight.
The negroes, so it appears, were
drinking and a fight started among
them. Mr.. Dyal was nearby and went
to separate the fighters. They or
others around did not like this inter-
ference and fired on him. He fell,
but vas able to use his pistol with
telling effect. The names of the ne
groes killed could not be learned.
Coroner Jackson Grimes will prob
ably leave on tOnight's train for Mill
wood and hold an inquest over the
bodies of those killed in the ARRAY.
Mr.. Dyal was about 20 years old,
and his home was at Hazlehurst. His
body will be brought to an undertake
