The ministers of the two churches,
Baptist and Methodist. shave them
selves and are set against Sunday
BARRIERS. The deacons of the churches
are split in two factions over the
question of the removal of the Sum
day stubble. The town authorities
are complacent, and the ants are
urging the district attorney to take
a hand.
Several months ago storekeepers
and BARRIERS held a meeting and de-
cided to observe Sunday according
to the letter of the law, with pad
locks on both front and rear doors.
A few weeks ago one of the BARRIERS
opened his shop on Sunday morning
and did rushing business, his being
the only warm room in which the
villagers could hold gabfest. Last
week another barber advertised that
he would open on Sundays thereafter
and sure enough, he was found
ready to scrape chins when the
church bells began to ring. A con-
stable entered and told him he was
under arrest.
Throw him OUT advised a law
yer, who was in the chair. HE has
no warrant
The constable retired. The scrap
ing of chins continued merrily in the
two shops all morning
On Monday several law-abiding
citizens asked the district attorney
what he thought of Sunday shaving.
He didn't think for publication, and
has taken no action. Deacon Silas
Constable says he will apply to Gov
ernor Hughes to have the district at
torney supplanted by a special dep
uty to prosecute BARRIERS if he does
not act.

How tbs Japs Pull Teeth.

The Japanese dentist does not
brighten his patient with an array
of steel instruments. All his CD.
erations in tooth drawing are per-
formed by the forefnger and thumb
of one hand. The skill necessary
to do this is acquired only after
long practice, but when once it is
obtained the operator is able to ex-
tract half a dozen teeth in about
thirty seconds without once remov-
ing his fingers from the patient
mouth, says Home Notes. The &ep-
lists education commences with the
pulling out of pegs which have beer
pressed into soft wood. It ends
with the drawing of hard pegs which
have been driven into an oak plank
with mallet.

A FIELD AND A GARDEN.

Wide Difference In the Emotions d
Which They Give Birth.
Nobody ever became suddenly
fond of field. 1t is the great diff
ference between a field and q gar.
den that no one could do so. AL
most anybody may take up garden
ing and become fond of garden
quickly, but a field is different.
The beauty of a garden, OF at least
some of the beauty, is so easily
seen; the pageant Of colors and
scents is SO varied and so soon past;
the flower borders are always so
near at hand and within limits so
obedient that a garden may be-
come the most sudden and the most
commanding of hobbies. But a field
is not to be known so quickly. Its
friendship cannot be had in a year
nor even in few years. But it is
a friend Zip which once given ends
only with the life of the friend.
An hour in a flower garden is like
conversation with a happy and a
charming companion. But morn
ing in a field is like walk with one
of those friends who are so COM
pletely understanding and under
stood that conversation is needless.
The beginning of knowledge of
field is the feel of the actual earth
the solid soil of it under foot.
You cannot come to real terms with
earth in flower garden, though you
may find out something with a
spade, and perhaps you cannot
reach the best of all knowledge of
field without blowing it. But you
can begin an acquaintance on field
newly plowed or, better still, being
plowed, and the first and best
knowledge is the touch of the crum-
bling furrow, an extraordinary sense
of bounty. In garden you cannot
rid yourself of a certain uneasiness,
almost fear of trespass, if you
step on a flower border or even if
you walk over vegetable bed in the
kitchen garden. The gravel path
awaits you, clean and yellow, and
the only possible scraper is the box
edging. But field is field, to be
crossed with confidence and stamp
ed about with heavy boots. Shoes
are no use. You must have great
boots, with nails in them, tough and
secure over slippery burrows. Every
season, almost every month, changes
the surface of that solid, restfu!

carbenie Acid sprina,.

In the Auvergne region of France
large amount of carbonic acid gas
comes from the soil and is one of
the last traces of the former vol
canic activity of this region. The
springs that yield the gas are found
generally in the assures of the
ground which allow the water to
rise. One of the Montpensier springs
has become known as the poisoned
spring." Animals which descend to
the cavity to drink are soon asphyx.
!ated by the gas which is given off
by the water and accumulates here.
Bodies OF birds, rabbits, dogs, sheep
and other animals are found, and
even persons have narrowly escaped.
Vegetation is also affected by an
overdose of the gas. Spots can be
seen running in line across the
fields, where the plants have suf-
fered from gas coming up through
the assures of the ground at differ
emit points. Soundings show the
presence of great quantity of gas,
and it is usually in a very pure state.

LYNN WEAVER KILLED.
Bookings Boy Succumbs to
Injuries.

BroOkings friends of Lynn Weaver
were shocked and panied to learn of
his untimely death which occurred in
a railroad wreck at Pierre early last
Thursday morning. Lynn was former.
ly a resident of this city and a student
at the college, and married a Brook
ings girl, Miss Lucy Goodale. He went
~railroading about five or six years
ago and had worked up very rapidly,
being an engineer at the time of his
death. In addition to his wife he
leaves a widowed mother and a sister,
now residents of Huron. The funeral
was held at Huron Friday afternoon.
The Huronite has the following &C.
count of the accident: THE engine
which left Huron Oh passenger train
No. 500 at 9:20 last evening run by
Engineer w. H. Bliss of this city,
crashed into a double header freight in
the Pierre yards at about three o'clock
this morning. On account of some
carelessneSs or lack of orders, when
Bliss was returning to the %roundhouse
after his engine was taken from the
train going west he ran his engine
into the freight throwing the foremost
+ lgine from the tracks and killing Fire
mar Barrett instantly. Engineer E.
l.. Weaver was injured so that he
died this morning as a result of his
wounds. His leg was cut off and the
lower part of his body was badly cut
up. w. H. Bliss, although the reports
are meagre, seems to have leaped
from the engine in time to avoid the
collision. This act undoubtedly saved
him from serious injury"

around each week and collect the mon
In March, 1887 the present society
was organized, the meeting being held
at the home of Mrs. Bertha Peterson,
mother of P. o. Peterson. The mem

in connection with the yound ladies'
society they bought the church bell.
Mrs. c. G. Leyse organized the first
Sunday school, which was a private
school, and it was taken in charge by
the church when the organization was

of the Sunday school for over sixteen
years.
Rev. M. Borge was pastor of the

and remained in charge until 1888.
Rev. s. o. Rondestvedt took charge in
February, 1889 and was here until the
fall of 1893. Rev. G. o. Skaret came in
the fall of 1894 and left in the fall of
1899. Rev. F. C.. Norman was in
charge from 1899 until the spring of

AUBREY LAWRENCE TO LEAVE.

Aubrey Lawrence will sever his
connection with the law firm of Hall,
Lawrence & Roddle about the mid
die of next month and will go to Far
go, N. D., where he becomes a men,
Der of the firm of Ball, Watson, Young
& Hardy. This firm is one Of the
best known in the Northwest and pro-
badly the largest in the two Dakotas.
Their practice is mostly corporation
work and they are attorneys for the
Northern Pacific railroad, the Milwau.
kee, Standard Oil company and a large
number of other big corporations.
Mr.. Hardy is about to retire and Mr..
Lawrence takes his place, the new
firm being Ball, Watson, Young &
Lawrence. Col. Ball, the senior men,
Der, is n of the best known men
in North Dakota, and Judge Young re-
signed from the North Dakota supreme
court to become a partner. Mr.. Law.
rence's relations with his partners here
have always beenof the friendliest ma
ture, but the opportunity offered at
this time was such an excellent one
that he could not in justice to him
self pass it up. He has come to be
recognized as one Of the very best
attorneys practicing in the state, and
that he will make good in his new
work his friends are absolutely conf
dent. The family is one that Brook
ings can i'll afford to- lose, and their
departure will be sincerely regretted.

p. o. SITE INSPECTOR HERE.

Major Fred Bracket, inspector Of
p%ostoffice sites for the United States
Treasury Department, spent Thursday
in Bookings looking over the proper
ties which have been offered to the
government for the postofice site. He
was of the opinion that all of the bids
were too high, with the possible e
ception of the Schaphorst corner
north Of the Leon, but expressed no
preference and it will probably be
some days before his decision is
known. We do not think that the
prices asked for the different rop
ties were too high, and Mr.. Bracket
probably underestimates the value of
the corners, all OF which are located
in or adjacent to the main business
section Of the city. The people of the
city are favorable to either the old
NJ. E. church corner or the DR.. Collier
property, both of which would make
ideal locations, and we understand
that the property on the north
end Of Main street have raised a thou
sand dollars to contribute as a re-
duction on the price Of the latter cor
ner. Major Bracket went from here
to Huron Thursday evening and from
there to- Rapid City, Congress having
appropriated money for government
building sites at both places.
