MIR. George F. Ludrick Of Ged-
des lost his life while bathing in
The railroad reservoir south of
town Monday evening. He was
section foreman at Geddes but
came here about six weeks ago to
take charge of a surfacing crew Of
Italians and vas working between
this place and Lesterville. Mon
day evening, in company with
Chas. Plumb, the time keeper for
the crew, and three Italians, he
went bathing in the pond. They
were all swimming across the pond,
Mr.. Ludrick being an expert swim
mer. When about half way across
he was apparently taken with
cramps and sank. The body did
not rise to the surface and as the
water was about twelve feet deep
his companions were unable to
reach him. Assistance was sum
moned from town and worked un-
til about two O'Clock in the morn
ing before the body was finally
dragged to shore. The remains
were brought to Undertaken Goeh
rings Office and were embalm-
ed. The family consisting of a
wife and two sons, both young
men, were notified, and also the
Modern Woodman and Odd Eel
lows lodges at Platte where he held
his membership. Tuesday morn
ing a delegation of Modern Wood
men, consisting of Axel Anderson
and Geo. L.. Cass of Platte and
Messrs. Tucker and KrilIie of Ged-
des came to escort the remains to
Platte which was his former home,
and where he was buried. DR..
Duguid, the county coroner, and
W. M. Kirby, an attorney, arrived
from Springfield and an inquest
was held at one O'clock Tuesday,
the verdict being accidental death.
The remains we're then escorted to
the depot by members of the Mo-
dern Woodman camp at Scotland,
and sent to Platte on the three
o'clock train where the funeral
services we're held.

From. the Tyndall Tribune:
One of the largest deals carried
through in Bon Homme county was
closed Tuesday when Clark Bros,
the real estate men purchased the
Bouza Touring mill and electric
lighting plant of this city.
John Ovens strawberry harvest
is finished for the season and he in
forms us that he has picked and
delivered 561 quarts Of fruit, and
disposed Of it at an average price
Of 15c per qt., aggregating $84.15.
When the fact is taken into consid-
GRAFTON that this amount was taken
from . patch Of 81 square rods, it
is no wonder that South Dakota is
becoming famous for her fruitrais-
ing qualifications.
Real estate men should study
the provisions Of Chapter 179 Of
the laws Of the last session, which

lates to the provisions required in

ed By attorneys who have examin-

Treasury officials note that silver dol lars are gradually going out of use In the West and South, and that their place is being taken by dollar bills A few years ago it was rare thing to see a dollar bill west of the Mississippi river, while In the South silver dollars were far more plentiful than the soft money. It seems that the doom of the silver dollar was sounded when the gov ernment decided that 1t would no long CT pay the freight between subtreasur- les and banks on the coins.

Short SugGestions.


 Keep a vegetable brush to remov. the silk quickly from ears of corn. A new nail brush with handle is equally useful.
 If an Iron is not at hand when mark Ing clothes with indelible ink, hold the writing against a lighted lamp chimney or gas globe.
 Paraffin used on the tops of preserve glasses can be saved until the next sea son by washing in cold water and put ting in a tin box with a tight lid.
 Always use wooden spoon for stir ring batter, soups or fruits, as 1t will not wear out a sieve, stain, nor spoil the flavor. To keep 1t white dip In hot water before using, as that will All the pores so they cannot absorb much O anything else.
 Table linen which has been stained with egg should never be placed In boil ing water, as 1t has the effect of set ting" the stain and making it almost permanent. The best method is to soak the cloth in cold water, which will make 1t perfectly easy to remove the stain before sending 1t to the wash

Voting in Georgia has heretofore been


 restricted by the constitution to citizens who have paid all taxes assessed upon them since 1877. At the recent State election constitutional amendment still further limiting the right to vote was adopted. Hereafter a voter must not only have paid all his taxes. but must have served in some one of the wars of the United States or of the State. or must be lawfully descended from some one who has rendered such service, or must be of good character and understand the duties of citizen ship. or must possess a certain amount of education or a certain amount of property. The avowed object of the new law Is the disfranchisement of the Ignorant negroes. Similar disfranchise- ment has been effected in Louisiana and North Carolina by a law which pro vides that voters must be descended from persons whose ancestors could vote prior to 1S67 In South Carolina and Virginia the voters must have paid their poll-tax. There are educational and property qualifications in South Carolina and an ancestry qualification n Virginia.
