A quantity of old straw lying on and
adjacent to the Chicago Great Western
tracks just east of South Center
street, became ignited this forenoon
and the fire was communicated to a
picket fence belonging to the railroad
company, near which are several coal
sheds, the property Of Walter T. Scott.
An alarm was turned in, and the fire.
men quenched the blaze with the
chemical apparatus without damage
resulting. AS the wind was from the
north and everything dry as powder,
the Scott properties south Of Railroad
street could easily have been reached
and consumed had the buildings on
the north side caught fire.

Something of an exodus of gamblers,
of real gamblers and their "tin horn"
following from the Rosebud country
has been witnessed in Norfolk this
last week, the"ld" is on, stuff is off" as
the saying goes and the gamblers are
seeking the kindly shelter of the
larger cities.
Public gambling in Gregory county
is not to. be countenanced by law
Even where there was marked leniency
towards the gamblers and their pro-
fesson all the fall, visiting lambs are
to be shorn no more. And no more
is the "crnkly" wool to be divided. No
more it is life on easy street for the
card sharks and the wheel twirlers
who reaped big harvests during the
October rush and who have found the
picliings good since.
No, more will the police force have
to listen to the bleating of the shorn
lambs. The cover is off the baize. The
prattle of the chuck luck men is no
longer heard, The clicity click of the
ivory and the rafting of the dice are
noises of the past.
This time the lid has fallen "for
keeps" During the past two years
the attorney general of South Dakota
has hammered down the lid" oc-
casionally, This time the nails are

close at II o'clock at night. They will

The stamp will be ready for dstribu-

for Lincoln day, February IL. The de.

vary somewhat from the usual pa
triotic series which bear the busts of
famous Americans. On account of the
greatness of the occasion the stamp
will be highly distinctive in size and
character. Only one denomination Of
the stamp will be issued, that of the

not be ready for the public until just
prior to Lincoln day. They will prob

Willheruer's CHALLENGE.

West Point Republican: II. D. Will
berger of Anoka claims to be the
champion speller of this section of the
state. In a recent challenge in The
Norfolk News. he submits a formidable
string of victories in spelling con-
tests that would seem to establish
quite an photographed reputation and
to entitle him to considerable recogni-
ton. Among other victories, he cites
one at West Point in 1886. That was
before the writer's advent here, but
some of the older people will, probably
remember him and the incident re-
ferred to.
There is something about this spell
ing business and this challenge that
appeals to the writer. The challenge
has the right ring. 1t harks back to
the time when to be the best "Spellin"
and "Figurin" was an honor greatly
sought and priced and gave the win
ners considerable prestige in the COM
munity. Unfortunately for the good
