HoMEsTEADER's BODY FOUND.
Body Found in Meade County Where
1t Had Lain for Months.

A man from the northern part of
Meade county arrived in Sturgis at
an early hour on Monday morning
and Immediately notified Coroner
Bracket and Sheriff Stewart that
man had been found dead on Camp
creek
These officers, together with I'm.
dertaker Bulls, left Immediately for
the scene and arrived there at SIX
O'Clock in the evening. Official in
quiry developed the fact that the
remains were those of John Swan
!, son, whose age was about sixty
years. He had a claim on the Nor
eau, and had been missed since
about September 1st. He had not
been considered of entirely sound
mind. The body is barely more
than a skeleton, and some Of the
flesh had been torn off by coyotes
Last Saturday boy named Frank
David, employed by Bert Gardner
rode over the corpse while looking
after bunch Of sheep. A watch
and sum of money were found in
the pockets. The conclusion would
seem clear that the unfortunate mar
became lost in his indefinite wan
behring's, and finally laid down and
died from cold, hunger and fatigue

Every MANI His Chance.

The above is the title of book
recently issued by a Boston house,
but written by Miss Matilda Stone
Woods, of Rapid City. The scene is
laid in Rapid City in the early days,
and the American House, Library
hall, Cemetery hill, Hangman's hill,
the Gap, and various other we'll
known places have frequent men
ton, which makes 1t of interest To-
cally. The thread of the story is
original in conception, a little pecu-
liar, and at times little extrava-
CANT. Several Of the characters are
easily recognizable, especially to
those who lived here twenty years
ago. Some are drawn from mag
nation, and one of the reasons for
writing the book, to show the desire
a girl has for an individual life, is
rather strongly brought out, but
where the success was achieved
through that idea is lost to the in
telligence of the reader, especially
when the real characters are consid-
cred. Just why the hero and hero
inc decided to part ways is hard to
understand, for if there had been
any real love their differences would
have been melted into thin air. Rap
i'd City people should read every
Man His Chance" and judge for
themselves what there is to it, but
whatever ones idea is to the plot
whatever ones idea as to the plot,
the book, by Rapid City girl, is
worth reading.

Crawford's Message.

Governor Crawford submitted a |
lengthy message. In the very out
set he alluded to the most serious
question confronting the state. The
finances.
He shows that it must not be done
in the future as in the past, but that
institutions of charity must come
first, and increases of educational
appropriations must be later.
He recommends proper compile
ton of the state house, and do away
with sham marble. He favors an
executive home in Pierre for use of
governors. The message is very
lengthy.
1t is noticeable that he favors
much the same that Governor Wesley
does. Much of it is abstract truth
in plain figures. A list of pardons
and reprieyes follows the message.
Stray Shots.
There never were so few in attend
ance at an Inauguration in Pierre
before.
Jack Hale and John Ziebach, the
publican nominees was an expedit-
ing of business when there was no
show for opposition.
Jim Fowler from Lawrence, start
ed out at once to represent the
country west of the river 1t
used to be what Lawrence county
did, and Jim has been in politics
and law so long in the territory and
state he does SO now by habit.
j. E. Ziebach, Of Buffalo, is a son
of Hon. F. NJ. Ziebach, the old
"squatter governor" John saw law
making when he was a kid" in
| Yankton, a half century ago. That
means he knows how.
| The number of bills was fixed at
500 in each house, the usual number.
The rules of the last session were
adopted for both houses.
The Hills fellows are just as close
home as any one now.
D. A. Mcpherson, the pioneer and
successful banker of Deadwood is a
new senate member.
Will and Alvin Shaw, brothers,
one an insurgent, the other stall
wart, are senators from Hutchinson
and Douglas counties. They are
bankers, and both good fellows, even
if they are not twins.
A painting of Governor Crawford
hung in the house draped with the
national ensign. AS he rose to read
his message it was undraped amid a
loud and prolonged applause.
DR.. Rate asked if there was not
a chance to get more ventilation just
as the joint session was assembled.
The doctor should have been here
the first or second session and then
he would have asked if there was
not a chance to get any ventilation.
The doctor is one Of the bright
minds of the session, and coming
from Custer county he is used to
good air and he wants it here.

After Bicycle Riders.

Will not the powers that be
make a crusade against the
riders, both white and colored,
who make it a. practice to ride
their bicycles on the side walks?
OF course none are ridden on
Main street, but we who live on
sideSstreets an davenues are those
who suffer, and must stand aside
to let the riders pass or risk being
sent sprawling to the ground.
We hope our town authorities
will attend to this matter, in
which pedestrians are in danger.
Accidents may happen to the
young as we'll as the aged, when
thoughtless riders spin along the
sidewalks and around corners as
though they alone had the right
of way.
Compel all wheelers to take
the middle of the road. Why
should Main street alone be free
from bicycles? CITIZEN.
