Church 10 Planned In Memory Of
Father Quick.
At a meeting of Catholics, held at
the parochial residence in Flandreau,
1.-THE Father Quick Memorial associa-
ton" was organized with the follow
ing officers: Rev. Father Martyr,
president; c. B. Ahern. vice president;
Henry Russell. first vice president;
ex-senator Jordan, second vice presi-
dent; P. F. Levins, secretary; Thomas
Kelley, treasurer, and a board Of trus-
tees. consisting of fifteen members.
The object Of the association is the
erection of a memorial church to the
memory of Father Quick. who Is bur-
led at Fandreau. Rev. Quick was on
the scaffold with Allen, Larken and
OBrien, the Manchester martyrs, who
gave up their lives in the cause Of
Ireland in 1867, and the people OF this
community feel that the Irish people
OF America should remember him In
this way. The A. O. H. Of this coun-
try will be asked to build this church,
and there is no doubt that this order
will respond to the call.

DEADWooD GOOD ENOUGH.

Suggestion to Change City's Name
Arouses Indignation.
That the citizens Of the historic
town Of Deadwood, made famous in
it's earlier days by dime novel tales
of wildness, will not tamely submit
to it's name being changed or its rec
ord slurred, was demonstrated by the
attempt of an editor Of a local news
paper, who recently came from the
East. The writer endeavored through
an editorial to secure the changing
Of the name of the town to the city
Of Roosevelt a suggestion that
aroused the public ire and the particu.
lar disfavor Of the pioneers who
helped to make the town. The writer
was bitterly assailed in each OF the
other newspapers Of the Black Hills,
and was the recipient Of SO many no.
tees from individuals on the subject
that his suggestion quickly was turned
off as a joke, and a threatened indig-
nation meeting of the pioneer society
was postponed to await further devel-
opments, which as yet have not ma
terialized.

LOSE RESERVOIR LANDS.
Few Filters Garry Out Plan They Are
Required to Follow.

Few FIIers Carry our Plan lney Are
Required to Follow.
Two years ago a large number OF
reservoir filings were made in Stanley
county, many Of the settlers filing
such d%eclaratory statements at the
same time as they filed homesteads.
These filings were under a law which
gave the claimant possession only so
long as he held a certain required
amount Of water on the claim, the
amount being based on the acreage
held. Under the law he must allow
the public free access to such water
at all times, and must file with the
land Office an annual certified state
ment that he was holding the required
amount Of water. Many of the filings
e only to hold tracts for friends
who afterward filed homesteads on the
same, but others were filed with the
expectation of holding them. Few car
ried out the plan, and the land Office
at Pierre now is %cancelling many such
filings, allowing the tracts to be taken
under the homestead laws by appli-
cantS.

STARTS TOT. RIGHT IN WORLD
Many Good Citizens Are Product of Chiidren's Asylum
Institution Shelters Little Ones From Bad Influences
Until Their Characters Are Nodded.

The South Dakota Children's home
In Sioux Falls is one of the institu-
lions of the state to which everybody
points with great pride. The society
in charge Of it is regularly incorpor-
ated under the laws of the state and
has for it's directors many Of the
states leading citizens. Its work is
supported entirely by charitable con
tributions and has in late years grown
to such proportions that many of the
counties have come to regard 1t as a
source Of great saving to the taxpay-
ers and annually contribute to its sup
port.
The organization was the o~utgpowth
Of a home for the protection of the
little ones who are unfortunately
without proper care, established by
the present superintendent, w. B.
Sherrard, In 1893. It's growth has
been phenomenal. During that period
1855 homeless children have been
cared for, many of them having been
placed in homes and educated, and
to-day living lives Of usefulness in
various sections OF the state. Some
are school teachers, some are married,
and all are comfortable and happy,
having been saved from a life OF
shame and degradation through the
God-loving, God-fearing ~benevolence
Of the good people in charge of the
home. 1t is not the intention Of this
article to go into the details Of the
work, but more particularly to call
the attention of the public to the
splendid home which has been erected
and is the property free from all in
cumbrance OF the society, and built
entirely by free contributions, mainly
through the personal effort OF the
superintendent . 1t is the earnest de-
sire Of Mr.. Sherrard that the home
become self-supporting, and he has
received several gifts to be set aside
as an endowment for that purpose, in
fact, the society now owns three
farms given to 1t by philanthropic
citizens of South Dakota.
The placing Of children Is one OF the
difficult problems that constantly con-
fronts the organization. They are
never permanently settled in their
new homes until the management is
fully satisfied that the foster, parents,
as we'll as the child, can become rec
Onciled to each other. This feature
is difficult, but 20 successfully is it
handled that few of the children
placed ever come back for replace
ment. Just now the society is in need
of homes for a few bright youngsters.

finally appointed a committee to take
up the question of pure meat with the

when that body meets in Lead next
month. The aldermen want the pack.
ing houses to establish cold storage
houses in Lead, as at present all meat
consumed there is hauled by wagon

Passenger chases Robber while Cars
Await Return.
A passenger on a train that runs
nto Sioux Falls acted as his own po-
iceman after he had been robbed, and
IN a vigorous chase after the train
aad been stopped by an accommoda-
ting conductor he succeeded In over
hauling the thief and forced him to
surrender the stolen railroad ticket
md a purse containing $s5 in cash.
The train had just left the Howard
depot when the passenger approached
Conductor Lawler and reported that
ae had been robbed, and that the man
who robbed him had left the train at
the Howard depot. The conductor
stopped the train and the passenger
started in pursuit of the thief. He met
him coming down the track, but the
robber instantly took to his heels
when he recognized his victim. How
ever, the passenger lost no time In
giving chase, and after an exciting
chase, which was witnessed by all
the passengers, he succeeded In over
hauling the thief and compelled him
to surrender the stolen ticket and
cash.
The passenger then gave the fellow
! good trouncing and returned to the
train. which continued on its way.

the bureau of forestry relative to con.

reserve lands.
In the national forest reserve In the
Black Hills there are many isolated
tracts claimed by the state. The
proposition was advanced that the
state be given a solid block Of forest
land in exchange for the isolated
tracts claimed by it. and it Is probable
that a settlement will be made on
that basis.
The conference resulted In q decis.
ion of the officials Of the bureau to
call for q meeting of all the states in.

purpose of arranging an equitable set
