Notwithstanding the fact that the
railroads are making heroic efforts
to clear their tracks of drifted snow
there was not through train ar

The Northwestern sent a local
train up from Chadron on No. SIS
time yesterday to accommodate the
Hills traffic and sent it out as No. G

on the Pierre line and Milwaukee

the east, since Monday evening.
While the local train from Chad

ceive mail from east of the Missouri

started to roll up the score in the
second half. Captain Stoner was
forced to leave the game about the

Sunday morning, at Dallas, this
state, Mrs. Annie Flick, wife of DR..
D. w. Flick, passed away after a long
illness, though never at any time
considered serious. The doctor was
here at the time, and her remains
were brought to Rapid City Tuesday,
by her son, Guy, and wife, at whose
home she died. Funeral services
| were held at the home Of Mr.. and
Mrs. D. l.. Herman, conducted by
Rev. H. r. Upton. Interment made
in Mountain View cemetery.
Sabina, Ohio, January 8, 1918,
was the place and date of the birth
of Mrs. Flick, whose maiden name
was Annie e. Mills. She was mar
ried to DR.. Flick in Wayneville, ILL.,,
and was the mother of four children,
two of whom died in infancy. Besides
her husband Mrs. Flick leaves two
sons, Richard and Guy, both of
whom are married. Guy lives at Dali
Has, and Richard at Cobra, Nebr. AL
so two sisters, Mrs. James Brady of
Hot Springs, and Mrs. Zielman, OF
Illinois.
DR.. and Mrs. Flick came to the
Hills in 1876, and went through all
the trialsSa and pleasures of frontier
life, Nearly all that time has been
spent in Rapid City. For the past
few months they have been with their
son at Dallas, but at the time OF
Mrs. Flick's death, the doctor was
here on business, which is his grea
sorrow at this time.
Deceased was one who cared lit
tie for anything outside of her fam
| lily and home, and through whatever
sad experiences which came to then
she was ever loyal and true. In he
death they have lost true wife
mother and sister, and the sympa
thy of large circle of friends is ex
tended to them.

A MASTER OF THE ART OF NEWS
LETTER WRITING.

William E. Curtis, the famous cor
respondent Of the Chicago-Record
Herald, probably has a more envi-
able position and is read by more
men and women daily than any other
newspaper writer in the Unit d
States He can go any where in
the world and write on any live top
ic he chooses, so long as he interests
ais hundreds of thousands of read
ers. He has Travelled several times
around the world and written enter
tainingly about almost every country
under the sun.
Every day in the year without a
vacation or intermission, Mr.. Curtis
has a two column letter in the Chi
cago Record Herald. The remark
able thing about these letters lis
their power to interest all classes of
readers. Women read them with
the same enjoyment as men. Wheth-
er the subject be politics, travels.
a new kink in the Monroe doctrine,
an interview with the newest money
king or the personal history of an
Egyptian mummy, the story is al
ways told with limpid simplicity,
and an unfailing sense Of interest
that keeps one reading to the end.
No other correspondent now living
can match the record of Mr.. Curtis
as popular purveyor Of timely and
useful information. Whether he
writes from his home in Washing
ton or from the Wilds of Mexico.
from the. gay streets of Paris OF
some remote temple in India, he al
ways has something fresh and enter
tanning to tell.
Mr.. Curtis began his newspaper
career in Chicago as a reporter in
1872, speedily became managing
editor, resigned to serve as secretary
Of a government commission sent te
South America, and fulfilled his du
ties SO brilliantly there that Score
tary James G. Blaine placed him al
the head OF the new bureau of Amer
lean republics. He is almost as wide
| ly known in South America and Eu
rope as in the United States. At the
worlds fair in Chicago he was thu
head of the Latin-American depart
ment. He is member of almos
every learned society in Washington
and many in Europe.
