FINE GIFT TO A NOTED BUSINESS
MAN.

1t was said OF mythical river in
Lydia, the Pactolus. that one would
find that the sands were gold. once
the river were discovered. The sculp-
tor Picault has sought to illustrate. in
a striking and attractive design in
bronze, his conception OF the real
source of gold. The figure. which is
three feet high. represents Industry,
the real discoverer of gold in the
waters. This masterpiece was pre-
sented to Mr.. C. W. Post, president

These young beeves should be fed
indoors in the winter. and in the sum-
mer should be protected from the hot
sun and flies by keeping them In
darkened stable during the hottest
part of the day. Prime young beef
can be sold right on the farm where
they are raised, and the demand far
exceeds the supply. This industry is
certainly worth consldering.-A. D.,

damage results to him from the fact that
the new schedule discriminates in favor
Of large users and against small consumers,
the court held, he could repair the damage
in a suit at law.
Carl c. Wright appeared for the Water
board and asserted it was not the intention
Of the board to pass a fixed rate schedule,
but only a schedule of maximum rates, the
Water company being free TO charge any
amount under the maximum rates.
Mr.. STUNT brought the suit on the ground
the Water board was about to adopt a new
rate schedule which fixed the cost
OF water to the smallest consumers
at % cents per 1000 gallons, while
the largest consumers, the railroads,
would get 1t for 4 cents per 1000 gallons.
John o. Yeiser. his attorney, conterded it
cost no more to deliver a gallon of water,
after main connections are made by the
consumer, to the small user than 1t did
to deliver a gallon to the largest consumer.

The Water board won the first round in
the suit brought by Ernest STUNT to enjoin
1t from adopting a new schedule of water
rates, when Judge Kennedy Friday morn

the board free to act ard the question as
to whether the new rates are discriminatory
or not will be threshed out when the case
is reached, on its merits some time in the
fall.
The court held that Mr.. STUNT. as a water
user. would not suffer irreparable damage
by the passing of the new rate

TUESDAY PRAIRIE FIRES.

Tuesday a number Of fires did q
great deal of damage in and around
towns west of De Smet. Fires were
also reported east of De Smet but die
very little damage.
Iroquois was surrounded by fires al
day but none reached the town. A
Riden living about two miles east OF
Iroquois lost a barn and some other
buildings and had a hard time saving
his house. A horse and some other
live stock was lost.
Cayour had a very narrow escape
but the people turned out and got the
fire under control.
Huron was also threatened and a
large number of people turned out to
fight the fire and had all they could
handle.
Wolsey and Washington were threat
ened the latter losing some buildings.
Broadland suffered the most, losing
two elevators, a lumber yard, the
depot and water tank. The depot
was a new one having been built but
a short time ago to replace another
that had been burned down.
Most Of the fires were caused by the
very high wind blowingon straw piles,
etc, which had been burned lately
and in which there still was fire. Some
of the fires were set by trains and
others were fires that were being
watched but were carried away by the
severe wind.
