Presbyterians Score Success With

A jolly crowd partook of the tempt
ing viands set before them Tuesday
evening by the men of the Presby-
terrain church. 1t took some time to
recognize the walters, partly because
they we're kept busy hurrying around
the tables at a great pace, and the
DISCUSSES they wore in the shape of
jackets and aprons were almost inn
penetrable in themselves.
Judging from the large and glow
ing smile that illuminated the face
of Prof. McLearie, the affair was evil
IDENTIFY a success from a financial
standpoint as well as socially. Every
body was there ut some time during
the evening and helped poke fun at
the amateur walters who took the
chatIiing good naturally and did some
fine team work in tending the wants
of the voracious multitude. Among
the men who served the following
were discovered: Prof. McLearie,
chief of staff, G. 0. Mccain, Will Nc
Cain, Henry Schuster, Mr.. Spayde,
Fred Spayde, Arthur Spayde, Mac
H%artgering. The others kept going
too fast for the reporter to tell who
they were.

Rapid found the odds too much for

The passenger fare between Den
yer and Rapid City via the Crouch
Lines has been reduced $1.70, a
matter off no little Importance. The
fare is now $1,000. It is expected
that our people in common with all
ither living along the line, will APP
preciate the reduction in passenger
and freight rates. Freight rates be-
tween Rapid City and Denver have
been placed as follows: Firs-class,
s1.14; second, 80 cents; third, 81
cents; fourth. II cents; A, 81 cents;
B 40 cents; G, 40 cents D, 36h
cents; E, 24k cents. This is a
sharp reduction netting 81 cents on
first two classes, 2 Scents on third
class and 20 cents on fourth class.
BY this reduction the Crouch Lines
are making Rapid City the distribut.
ng center.

item to be considered in ideal steam
ship conditions. Crossing from the
United States to Europe in five or
six days gives but a brief glimpse OF
the ocean and refreshment of fresh
air. Safety, s%moothness of motion,
excellence of accommodations and
fare, orderly, efficient organization,
and freedom from seasickness, are
points that tell even more than the
daily bulletin of knot runs.
Ocean travel has become an m
mense factor in the business of our
civilized countries, and viewed as a
whole, grows more impressive every
year. There are lines to every i'm
portant port in Europe, to the Medi-
te%rranean, to all the seas, to every
continent and all points of the COM
pass. Two hundred thousand Amer
leans have visited Europe this year.
The annual immigration to the Uni
ted States has reached a million and
a quarter. When II nation alone
makes such a showing it is realized
that the navigation of the ocean is
more than a racing test or a mere
battling for length of keel and maxi
mum horsepower. Every company
that builds ships satisfactory in gen.
eral performance and that may fair
ly be called up TO date is worthy of
support and deserves a share in the
solid trophies of success. More and
more the world is inclined to travel,
and to look on the sea as an element
of nature hat has been conquered by
n rare combination of courage and
science. The Atlantic, the Pacific,
the oceans of both hemispheres, are
tracked 10y steamships that grow
more attractive all the time, and no
fact is better est4 a lshed than that
improved facilities [ transportation
bring the travel
a look ahead +, ; ocean naviga-
ton should be ma. sided. The fore
most lines will be hose that move
onward with the best sum of ad-
yantages. A sea voyage at its finest
is a delightful thing. Each year
broadens the scope of the ocen flyers.
The Panama canal will open innu-
meralble new possibilities and recre-
alton. Before many years the tide
of sea travel from and to the United
States will mount into millions. How
long this country will stay out of
ocean ship building is a problem to
be worked out by congress. Our
designers, manufacturers and arti-
sans have the genius, but not at pres
ent the inducement. They produce
the fastest yachts and battleships
equal to any. Their coastwise lake
and river craft are unsurpassed. The
ocean is as much their element as in
tbs days of the Collins grey hounds
If they get 9 fair place in the compe-
tition. 1t is a vast field, and will moi

Another Heart Failure.

WATERFOWL, October 23.-Believing
that love should at all times take
precedence over law, Judge e. A.
Cove of this city today stopped a law
suit long enough to perform the mar
riage of Robert Hawk and Katherine
Gaumitz. When the young couple
reached the Judges Offices they found
him busily engaged in deciding a
knotty legal point raised by Jealous
attorneys who were making a spirited
fight. Unexpected and unannounced
they walked in, and on realizing
what the Judge was doing began to
back out. The crafty judge deyined
their wish, and beckoned them in.
Gentlemen he said, I'VE will take
a short recess. This lawsuit may resi-
until l meet an engagement arrang.
ed by Cupid.
The couple were taken to a side
room where the marital vows were
said, w%hereupon the Judge returned
and resumed court.

Could Not Pay for Dinner.

A farmer from K%ingsbury county,
s. D., dropped in at a local hotel
and after eating his dinner, stated
to the hotel man that he had no
change, but that il the hotel man
would cash a check which he had,
the price of the dinner could be de-
Quoted. The hotel man vas glad to
accommodate him, doubtless think
ing the check was for only a few dol
lars. But the hotel man was COM
PEELED to throw up his hands when
the roughly dressed farmer pro-
duced a check which called for the
sun of s2,22O. The check repre-
scented the sum the farmer had re-
ceived for his wheat crop alone.

Lion in the Hills.

Last week while Eddy Kort-
hous was riding in the vicinity of
Bakersville, he saw a bob cat lying
down in the brush, and wishing to
see how fast it could run, started his
horse on a run for it with the idea of
giving it a scare Just as the horse
and Eddy discovered that it was not
a bob cat but a full grown mountain
lion and that it was not showing any
intention of running. 1t did not
take him long to make up his mind
that If the lion would not run he
would, and whirling his horse as
quickly as he could get him around,
Eddy made good time out of there
and hit for the house.
The lion has been seen since then
by another of the Korthous boys;
and lately some of their stock has
been scared in the corral close by
their house and there is little doubt
that the animal is staying somewhere
in that vicinity. The first time
there is a tracking of snow the Kor-
there is a tracking of snow the Kort-

DENVER. Aug 5-CSpecial)-At the
annual meeting Of the National Live Stock
association held here in January a resolu-

ing the month Of May a large number Of
blanks to stockmen throughout the west
requesting answers to the following ques-
tions:
Do you favor some form Of government
control OF the public grazing lands under

ARCHBoLD CALLS 1T UNFAIR
Vice President of Standard OIL Com
Pany Says They Were
SliRhted.

NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-John D. Archbold.
vice president Of the Standard Oil com
pany, made a statement today in which he
declared the company was not given an
opportunity 10 be heard OF submit data in
the preparation Of the report prepared by
Commissioner OF Corporations Herbert S.
Smith and made public.
Mr.. ArchboId's statement follows:
On Saturday. August 3, Judge I-sndis an
nounced his decision
On Monday, August 8, Commissioner
Smiths report is given 70 the public
This remarkable report Of Mr.. Smith
marks another coincident IN the utterances
Of the different departments Of the govern
ment in their attacks on us that have
occurred so frequently as 70 rob them Of
even the appearance Of being accidental
In connection with its publication II may
not Be amiss TO remind the public that the
act creating the bureau OF corporations
provides that such reports shall be made
TO the president for the purpose Of guiding
him in forming suggestions as 10 legisla-
tiOn ana that they may be made public in
whole or in part only In the discretion %
the president. II Is suficient now for Us
10 say that In the preparation OF his report
Mr.. Smith did not see III 10 even confer
with US. We think the public will agree
that we are al least entitled TO be heard IN
such a matter. II Mr.. Smith had seen NJ
10 confer with us would have readily
furnished him the data for q truthful state
ment Of the facts on this question.
