NEW WIND CAVE
IN BLACK HILLS
Recent Discovery of Second Nat
ural Subterranean Wonder

Rapid City, Aug. MANY people
who have searched for the recently
discovered wind cave a few miles
south of Rapid City, have been in
clined to discredit the story, because
they did not find 1t. The cave exists
and is on the ranch of Chas. Mad
dock, who resides at Rapid City.
The entrance to the cave is some
what obscured, but once discovered
the opening reveals passage way
leading down into chamber.
While only about 100 feet Of the
cavern have been explored at the
present time, there is reason to be-
lieve that the dimensions Of the cave
are of much greater extent Recent
explorations were brought to a
standstill by the presence across the
explored passage Of wall Of lime
stone rock, which had acculated
from falling from the ceiling of one
of the chambers. While there is an
opening into the receSses beyond, it
is not large enough to admit the
passage Of a man. Hhe plan now is
to blast away this obstruction and
explore beyond the obstruction. It
Is known that the cave is much

FIRST WHITE
CHILD BORN
In South Dakota Now Living In
Chicago

Pierre, Aug. 2.-For a long time
Ole O. Detley. Of MeeklinR, has
claimed and been awarded the dis
tinction Of having been the first
white child born within the limits of
the present state of South Dakota,
He is the son of pioneer settler
among the earliest to locate in the
southeastern corner of Dakota ter
ritory. his birth being March 2.
1860. Since going to Washington.
Senator Crawford has been delving
into early Dakota history. as shown
by records of the war department
for tbs frontier posts along the
Missouri river, and has secured a
record which will bring Ole down
from his pedestal of distinction, and
give it to woman now a resident Of
Chicago. She was the daughter Of
Edward Graham Atkinson, a sutler
with the United States troops locat-
ed at that place, and the date
of her birth is given as January 2,
1857, or more than three years be-
fore the birth of Detley in the south
east corner of the state.
The girl, Mary Huston Atkinson.
is now mother superior of the Sa-
cred Heart convent in Chicago. The
record appears to be authentic in
every way. and gives Fl. Pierre
another distinction besides that of
being the location of the oldest
white settlement IN the state.

With The Best of Backing

From Dakota Farmer. Aug. /, 1909.
In previous issue it was an
nounced that Prof. Thomas Shaw
would soon write exclusively for
the Dakota Farmer. It was then
iItimated that he was going to try
on an extended scale, with the CO.
operation of as many farmers as
possible, to work out certain prob
lens pertaining to the growing of
winter wheat, clover, alfalfa, and
the Canadian field pea, on the prair-
les of the Dakotas and Montana; and
through the Dakota Farmer make
the results of all the experimenting,
observations and investigations ac-
cessible to the farmers, and to the
local press throughout this territory
At the time Of this announcement
we did not make known the-to US,
most lmportant-fact that Prof.
Shaw and the Dakota Farmer are
not alone in this reaching under
taking In the earliest stages of
work Prof. Shaw consulted with,
and carefully laid his plans before
Mr. J. J. Hill, the great farmer of
the Great Northern Mr. Hill was
much pleased the whole plan of ex-
Fermentation outlined and at once
volunteered to its moral and mater
ial backing. In doing SO this great
empire builder of material progress
has furnished another evidence of
the deep interest which he from the
first has taken in progressive agri-
culture in our territory. With such
man supervising the work, and
with such powerful support behind
it, the Dakota Farmer feels justified
in looking forward to far-reaching
results, results that be greatly help
full to the agricultural and stock in
terest of the whole northwest.
That all the crops thus specifically
named, may be grown with much
success is no new idea with Prof.
Shaw. This great worker, on better
farming took the stand years ago
tbat tbaca corI6 opd cbn,,ld ho
grown in the areas mentioned; and
now, with the powerful factors
named to assist him, he proposes to
aid in demonstrating how sue
cessfully they can be grown. Prof.
Shaw takes the stand that the sue
cessful growing of these is intimate
ly related to the degree Of prosper
ity and success to which much of
our territory may hope to attain

kEDFIELD TO
CAPITAL CITY
Proposed Railroad Will Pass
Throgh North Hand
County

Redfield, Aug. 2.--Redfield busi-
ness men who are behind the rail-
road project known an the Redfeld
a. Southern Railway company are
'perfecting their plans and there
is no longer any doubt about the
line being built.
y The proposed line will run south
west to Pierre by way of Onida and
northeast to Condo, tapping some
of the richest farming country in
South Dakota, and making Redfeld
one of the greatest railroad centers
OF the state, with lines running in
every direction.
This has always been a dream of
Rcdtield boosters TO have the city
connected with the capital
with direct line which will now be
realized and the new line will add
more to the value of the land
through the counties which will be
tributary to it than any other line
that could be built.
The company is composed Of Red
field business men and backed by
ample capital to insure the success
of the undertaking and from one of
the officers, we learn that work will
be commenced as soon as the pre-
liminaries can be arranged and the
road built and in operation within a
months.

No Drinking On Trains

Reports from oyer the state indi-
cate that railway men are generally
insisting on the enforcement of the
law, which prohibits the drinking of
intoxicating liquors on trains. A
drunken man was compelled to re-
turn his ticket in Pierre and get his
money back, and was not allowed to
board a train At Lennon a train
was held while a man who refused
to heed the warning of the conduc-
tor was fined $40 for violating the
law. and also like amount for his
remarks to the court. Another man
was taken from a train between
Huron and Pierre and left to pay a
fine at Miller. The Northwestern
road, in compliance with the law is
having card printed containing the
gist of this liquor law. These are
to be placed in the hands of all con-
ductors and then if some inebriate
happens to make motion towards
his hip pocket he will be presented
with one of these placards and SO be
warned from his contemplated
crime. The company is doing this
to avoid hanging such information
in coaches that go to Chicago and
through other states that have nc
such law. Huron Herald

If You knew.

If you knew the dreadful story Of that

How it drags a man from virtue down to
dark perdition's brink.
Yes, and wrecks his brain and body, leaves
, no trace of good remaining .
:. You would never dare to touch q drop of
the accursed drink. -.
If you knew the crime it gcnders, how it
. makes a man a devil, ...r,
How it prompts to deeds of evil such as
mind could hardly think;
If you knew the sickening scenes that mark
the %drunkard's midnight revel-
I know you'd never touch a drop Of the
accused drink.
If you knew the grief, the anguish, if you
heard the bitter crying
Of the piteous, pleading hearts now
doomed in black despair to sink,
As you saw that host of victims on RUNS
bloody altar dying,
You'd swear to never touch a drop of the
accursed drink.
If you knew how many souls were hasting
on to woes internal,
If you knew how hell r~ejoiced as each
form staggers DER the brink
You would pledge your, sacred honor at
the throne of the Eternal
That you'd never, never stain your soul
with the accursed drink.

Dare uphold the glittering wine cup! Let
