DALLAS THREATENED BY FIRE
Flames Come from Tripp County and
visitors Fight Against De-
structiOn.

DALLAS, S. D., Oct, H-A prairie fire
which started about 1l3o today threatens
Dallas. Every resident and visitor turned
out TO fight fire with wet blankets
Plows were put into service digging
dltches. At 80 several small residences
caught fire, 1t is thought, from the back
fire which was started to hold the fire.
The fire came In from Trip county, and
covered line along the west side of the
town. A panic reigned in the town. Many
left as soon as possible. some of them
going on foot carrying their hand baggage.
The largest crowd of the registration was
in town. Trains had come In all night and
today loaded with people. The wind was
terrific. The wind started from the north
west changing to the southwest. This noon
trains were held at the station having in
structions to carry as many people out as
possible. The fire protection of the town
confined to two small chemical wagons
manned by the citizens. The water supply
would have been fairly good. but the pres
sure was insufficient to force the water
through the hose.
Three small dwellings were Burned within
twenty-five yards of the government build
ing where nearly 10000 registration papers
were held awaiting the drawing next Sat
urday. The fire, which had come in directly
| from the west, burned out and was con-
| trolled by 2 p. m. The fire then turned
toward the town from the southwest. 1t is
thought that the fire is under control, but
is still dangerous. Thousands of people are
fighting 10 prevent the spread Of the flames
from the burning buildings.

WON ON A BLUFF.
The Way One Prosperous Merchant
Cot His Start In Business.

There is 4 prosperous merchant ~
Chicago today who owes his success +"
his donation of a $1,000 organ to 4
church ut Il time when he didn't have
money enough 10 buy hand organ
This donation was case of bluff pure
ana simple. hut the bluff worked and
resulted in the subsequent wealth. Of
the lucky llulier.
John Smith was seeking capital to
start in business for himself. but as he
had 10 security worth Speaking of he
could not borrow the money he needed.
When he had tried every person be
could think Of who would hI' likely to
have the necessary cash and ne incli
nation to lend it and had been turned
down. he conceived the idea Of present.
ing his church with an organ.
Young Napoleon John Smith there
fore ordered his organ and allowed the
future to look out for itself. The man
ufacturerS OF the organ never thought
of questioning the financial standing
of the phianthropist who was handing
out 5000 organs and agreed to have
the instrument set up in the church Oh
time
OF course ]. Smith was not bud
that was born to blush unseen, nor did
he hide his beneficence under bushcl
He managed 10 bring in At least the
flute stops no matter what the subject
of conversation. Not only did the
young Napoleon advertise himself by
means of the church organ. but the
pleased minister and the equally pleas
cd congrcgI ton spread the news of his
gift.
During this tine John cid rot allow
auv alfalfa 10 grow under his feet. On
the prctcY.'c of consulting some
wealthy member of the congregation
about some minor details of the organ
he wou.l drop into an office and be-
foe he left casually would mention the
subject Of the company that be was
forming. Most of the men that he thus
saw thought that il would be good
thing to he associated with 4 man who
was making so much money that he
was able TO hand out $1,000 without
missing il. so that all were anxious to
take stock in J. Smiths company.
Long before the time came for the
first payment on the organ Smith had
gathered enough money TO start his
business and was doing so well he had
no difficulty in borrowing the amount
needed to make the payment. From
that time he has made money so fast
that now he could give away several
$1,000 organs and pay for them as
well.-Chicago Tribune.

and their extreme readiness to extend

surprised me. When noticed the
alacrity with which the native males
jumped up on the crowded street car
to offer their seats to the first senorita
that entered. thought to myself how
much more gentlemanly are these
Mexicans than many of my own coun-
trymen. They do not wait to see II
some other man is going to get up. but
each tries to beat the other in cour-
teously proffering his seat to the lady.

prietor Of the hotel and Immediately
he began to laugh.
"'You must understand. senor,' said
the innkeeper. that the governor OF
our state issued q decree that if any
man keep his seat in street car,
thereby compelling a woman to stand,
he Is liable to arrest and fine. The
police have been instructed to execute
this order severely. and / think this

licly branded as lacking in gentility.'
