AS much a zealot as Roosevelt,

varied experience in public affairs, 1t
is conceded that MI. Taft Is well e.
quipped to take up the duties of Chief
Magistrate. That his popularity *
tends to all classes and to all sect
ions was evidenced today by the char
|acter of the throng that paid him
homage. His recent trip to the South
was n of personal triumph, which
was echoed today In the greetings ex-
tended by thousands OF visitors from
Dixie Land-probably a greater num-
Der than there has been since the
first Inauguration of Cleveland.
During the convention which nomi-
mated Taft the scheme for the reduc-
ton Of southern representation be
came imbued with greater Vitality
than had ever been shown before, but
Taft's managers, in response to his
direct commands, accomplished its de
feat. That incident, together with
Taft's consideration for the southern
idea Of white rule, as displayed in rec
ent public u~tterances, has built for
him a high regard among southerners,
who are In Washington today, with
partianship invisible, to pay their re-
spects to a new President.

marvellous expanse, entirely without

movable platforms giving the seats at

1t will soon be completed as nearly as

These features are as unpleasant to
the Armory Board, who are RESPONSE
BILE for them, as to any other citi-
zens of Roswell. Both were abso-
lutely necessary in order that the
high standard originally set be lived
up to. Both of these defects can De
easily remedied as soo as money is
available.
The board has gone into debt $4,000
in the completion of the building, not
counting the expense of chairs and
other furnishings. This makes the 20

what Is there, is of the best and the
building is of a size that will accom-
modate a popular crowd in Roswell
for years to come. There is nothing
about it to be ashamed of. The board
has exercised splendid judgment in
building well what they did build and
by putting nothing shoddy into the
house in order to finish it at this
time on the limited capital In hand.
The armory measures SIS by 104 IT.

FARM SCHOOL EXCURSIONS.

Those in authority at the college of
agriculture in Brookings S. d., week
ago entertained 1000 farmer boys from
all parts of the state. The state sup
erintendent of instruction, cooperating
with the county superintendent, had
arranged for excursions from the var
iOus counties. The county superin-
tendent Of Minnehaha county, for ex-
ample, took party of $50 boys to
Brookings on the first day of the ex-
cursion period. The superintendents
in other counties arranged with the
farmer boys in their jurisdictions to
spend a day at the farm school The
always made special inducements
and altogether the results were very
gratifying. The plan is one that is
worthy of being adopted in every state
having school of agriculture.
Special programs were arranged tor
the entertainment and instruction Of
the excursionists. 1t was not expect
ed that the farmer boys would get
liberal education in a day. But they
were able to get some idea of what
is being accomplished at the school,
to get an inkling of the value of scien-
tific methods in agriculture. The visit
TO BroOkings should set thousands of
Young men to thinking. 1t undoubted-
ly will result in an increased enrolment
at the school next fall, and that is
worth while. Both Minnesota an1
South Dakota have schools of agricul-
ture that are doing a high-grade work
that should be more generally appre-
ciated by those who till the soil. Our
Geighbors seem to have hit upon an
excellent plan for increasing interest
where interest is most needed and
we would do well to follow their lead.

wild beasts in as great a number and

The collection is costly one and II
patrons of the show saw nothing else
in the big show they would be well
repaid. For the natural history ex-
hibit is of distinct educational value
which parents can hardly afford to
have their children miss.

special agents in Europe, Asia and

or tanned, they can secure, no matter

that any expenditures in adding to the
collection will be more than repaid

HAVE GIVEN THE AUTHORITIES
CONSIDERABLE TROUBLE.

About three weeks ago the wagon

in Lake Hendricks township, was rob-

erty. The loss was reported to Sher-
iff Miles and after he had made
thorough investigation he succeeded
in landing the four guilty parties, the
arrests being made the latter part of
last week. They are Guy and Claude
Wright, Herb Griffith and John Mid
toven. They were brought to this city
and were bound over for trial to- the
June term Of the circuit court, which
opens next week.
Sheriff Miles in investigating the
robbery found that the four men had
attended dance the night when the
stuff was taken and when leaving in
stead of going south toward their
homes they had gone north in the
direction of the pedder's wagon. He
rounded up one of the gang, Midtoven,
at his home and brought him to
Brookings and after considerable
questioning he made a confession, I'M
plicating the other three. The sheriff
secured warrants for them and when
arrested they stoutly maintained their
innocence, but finally admitted their
guilt and turned over the stolen stuff.
This included three suits of clothes,
razors, knives, cheap jewelry and
other junk such as Is usually carried
by peddlers.
BY turning states evidence Mid
toven will likely go free. This was
his first experience in crime and 1t
should be good lesson to him. The
Wright brothers, the leaders of the
gang, are sons of farmer near Lake
Hendricks and were residents of
Brookings six or seven years ago.

that neighborhood for some time. The

DEATH OF OLD RESIDENT.

Daniel j. Darrow died at his home

he had been in feeble health for some
years. The funeral will be held from
the Presl yterian church tomorrow af

wood cemetery. 1t has been impos-
sible to locate Mr.. and Mrs. n. f.
Carnine, who were here couple of
weeks ago and are now somewhere
on the ROAD to- their new home in
California.
Mr.. Darrow was SO years of age,
having been born at Schenectady

Miss Marian l.. Jenkins of Lewis,
Essex county, n. Y, who survives him.
Shortly after his marriage he moved
to Waupun, Wis, where he was prin-
cipal of the high school for seven
years. Finding this work too con-
fining he removed to Mason, Mich,
and engaged in the dry goods business.
Mr.. Darrow moved to Brookings in
1884, where he has since made his
home He was one of the first pub
fishers of the old Brookings Sentinel
and took a prominent part in the
business life of the city, having held
a number of city Offices at different
times. OF late years his health has
been very feeble and he has been con-
fined to his home the greater part OF
the time. Uncle Darrow, as he was
familiarly called, was known and be
loved by nearly every person in town
and his demise has called forth sincere
Expressions of sympathy and regret.
