FROM SOUTH DAKOTA.
Written, S. D. July 5. 1909.

w Hilltli, II. July 1JUJ.
Editor, The Democrat:
learn from reports from John NJ.
Brayton of Written, South Dakota,
that Indian heir ship land is selling
where he is for $4,000. ! am seven
miles west of him and one mile from
Myer county line, and Indian heir
ship land sells for $4,000. One lady
from town bought a quarter section
southeast of me and paid $4,000. Roe
and Hall, miles south of me, paid
$6, 400. You see We are in as good a
belt of land as there is in the coun-
ty We run from the Red Hills clear
north to the White River.
We have a petition out for post
office and mail route, and expect to
start town three miles south of
where we are. The Chicago-Nort
western railway has made survey
by it to Myer county, which will
make it the best town in the county.
We reach water in the draws at
from 5 to 10 feet and on the upland
from Is to so feet. Crops and gar.
dens look good We are in need of
good rain for grass and crops. 1
must say this is a beautiful country.
We can see as far as our eyes can
look and see as nice prairie as any
we ever looked at. We are seven and
half miles from Red Hills, but it
is way-ahead of Written. 1t has
several dwellings. two hardware
stores. There will be two saloons,
Que billiard and pool loom, one res
taurant, one hotel, two livery barns,
two lumber yards. enc implement
house, one blacksmith shop. barber
shop, {. dance hall, which is also us
cd for preaching services, two banks,
and there is plenty of cash on hand.
There are plenty of prairie dogs
here, cayottes and rattle snakes. l
have only killed five. Some of my
neighbQrs have killed from 10 to -.
Tell my old Comrade Bob Fishel
was all alone May 80. No other old
soldier in 10 miles of me, and SO l
decorated my tent with flags, and is
the first Decoration l ever missed in
my old town of Colesburg. The old
flag still waves on my tent. l have
been keeping bachelor quarters for
three months and have my house
built and expect my wife and daugh-
ter the Sth instant. There was a big
celebration at Larno from July 2 to
4. Two thousand Indians were in the
parade. There were twenty-five
beeves killed and cooked for the In
dams and the big crowd.
Please send me The Democrat for
one year. as l want good Delaware

of my old Delware county friends,

Dog Runaway.

A dog attached to small express
wagon. the property of small boy,
ran away Monday afternoon. The
canine was standing on the pave
ment, unconscious of the fact that
it was the Fourth of July season and
the time for celebrating. Some one
lighted mammoth cracker and plac-
ed It rather close to the dog and
his vehicle. There was loud report
and the canine expressed his desire
for solitude by making better time
@up Main street than was ever seen
on the Rush Park track in the good
old racing days. But the wagon re-
manned right side up, there were no
casualties, and when the boy sue
ceeded in recapturing his property he
had the satisfaction of knowing that
the 2-minute dog is here at last.-ln-

FROM OUR EXCHANGES.
May Ride on a trolley.

The latest trolley proposition in
Eastern Iowa, is up before the citi-
zens of IIazleton. A mass meeting
was held Tuesday for the purpose of
discussing the proposition. 1t is gem
orally understood that the first four
miles of the proposed interurban will
be between Hazleton and Oelweia
with the possibility of stub line to
Oelwein park. 1t is also planned to
have extension east and north to
connect with points along the Milwau-
kee railroad. Among the extensions
which have been suggested from the
south are a line by way of Winthrop
to connect with the C. A. e NJ rail
Toad at Anamosa; line by way of
independence or Quasqueton. or both
Ito connect with Marion and also a
line by independence and Bradon to
reach Vinton.. The people will be
given an opportunity to support all
these projects. The men who have
Issued the call and who are interest
ed in the projects include ID. Evans,
a lumber dealer; T. e. McCurly. pres
ident of the Haz1etan State bank; A.
Kiefer, president of the Kiefer State
bank; A. w. Jarrett, well known
live stock dealer and G. M. Miller,
-nown cattle raiser. These men
have rhterested themselves in the
project and are working with might
and main to make it successfully

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES.

A battle royal between two semi
professional teams during the first
six innings was turned into hoi-
paloi of errors on the part of Man
chester, allowing the enemy to walk
home with score of 4 to 2 in their
pockets. Sexton worked hard and
was given excellent support until
the tide swung the victory into the
hands of Fuzzy Baylor ct al. De-
termined not to allow Monticello to
leave town without defeat hanging
to their credit Manchester tried to
slip one over on them and wrestled
magnificently until the eighth, hav-
ing the score board reading to 1.
Hits were confined to small numer
ais; strike outs We're in order, while
bases on balls seemed popular. Both
catchers were disabled temporarily
Hans being knocked out for mo-
ment when crack on his game knee
sent him to the ground Locker car
ries painful hand where tip foul
fondled an extended member. Captain
Cobb had charge of the locals from
the bench, reserving his strength for
the morrow
No doubt Monticello extracted a
dose of satisfaction from the
result and they wasted no pity on
Machester's humiliation. Both pitch.
ers found several holes from which
they extricated themselves and the
fray continued Internationally hopeful
and discouraging.
Errors do wreak severe havoc on
friends and foe alike. Here's to a
more happy conclusion to the next
fracus.

Unknown Shooting.

An accidental shot from the south
side of First street, hit the plate
glass window of Vogel's jewlery store.
and cracked the glass for about six
inches around the place where the
bullet struck, last Monday morning.
The bullet made clean cut hole in
the glass but did not enter the build
ing. 1t glanced off. hitting the win
dow casing. and struck the Hayes fur
niture store across the street. doing
no harm to any one. The source of
the shot is unknown.-Minticello Elk

ADMIRE OUR LIBRARY.

1t is one of the neatest, best ar
that l have visited" said an out of
town caller as he was inspecting and
enjoying few minutes time in the
Manchester library few days ago.
This sort of comment is frequent and
complimentary expressions are voiced
by the patrons and visitors who are
learning to appreciate the value of
the library. Not long ago, superin-
tendent of one of the larger state
High schools said that what the ma
ton needed was the boy and girl
who learned to use the library, ac-
quire an interest in good literature
and practice the benefits derived
from such study, and the schools
would vouch for the balance of his
education.
The Manchester library contains
about six thousand volumes, and its
reading tables are well provided with
current magazines and papers. The
board has recently compiled and had
published code of rules and regu-
lations, copies of which may be OBJ
tanned from the librarian.
Another change which was
made in the rules allows any child
to hold card who is able to write
his or her name. Heretofore, no one
under the age of Ia years was given
the privilege. The library is being
managed on conservative basis,
and it is hoped that an assistant may
be secured during the fall, allowing
the librarian to give more attention
to the wants of the children and
students who wish HEP and direction.
The lecture room in the basement
is soon to be arranged for practical
use, and during the coming winter
speakers will occasionly deliver lee
lures and entertainments. This was
the original idea of the board when
the library was built.

Art in Hard Lines.


Strawberry Point had one victim
of 5th of July accident. Arthur
Graf was shooting fireworks on Mon
day noon, and one of the crackers
failed to explode at the proper time.
Art thought of course the thing was
MT going to explode SO went to get
it for the purpose of examining it
and see what the matterwas. Just
as he was in the act of picking it
up. it exploded striking him in the
face and inflicting severe bruise.
He at once hurried to a doctor
where his wound was dressed. The
wound was not a deep one and no
bad results will come from it.-Straw-

Telephone Troubles.

Much speculation has been created
In telephone circles over the state as
ito the final outcome of the telephone
merger which is now taking place.
The Bell concern has recently com
pleted the purchase of the Corn Belt
and some other Independent compan
les, and is reported to be in negotia'
tion for more of the INDEPENDENT sys
tens. The telephone patrons of Del
aware county sincerely hope that the
trust will not be able to get hold OF
the system doing business here

Too much oiling Is injurious and oil

The work Of cleaning a machine is
lessened n a small bellows is kept in

every day that the machine is in use.
Care should also be taken that pins
