High Price For School Lands in
SDink County.

Redtield, May S-Col. S. N. Gray,
acting as deputy commissioner OF
school and public lands, and charged
with the sale of school lands in Sphinx
county, has just closed n of the
most successful sales ever conducted
in the state. The lands met a ready
sale. farmers being in attendance from
all parts Of the county. The lowest
price received was $35 per acre, and
the highest price was 800 per acre.
This brings the average at about 1863
per acre. When it is considered that
these school lands are wholly unim
proved and nothing but raw prairie
the general improvement of the state
and county from twenty years ago
can readily be seen. The minimum
price of school lands was fixed by the
constitution at $40 per acre, but In
this portion Of the state 1t is safe to
say that very little, if any, will be
sold at lsss than S35 per acre from
now on. The total amount received
by Col. Gray at this sale, lasting less
than two hours, was $l43, l55. This
amount will 20 to swell the perma-
nent school fund of the state and will
be loaned out at 5 per cent upon i'm
proved farm lands, or invested in
municipal and school bonds. Gray
reports this to be the most successful
sale that has been witnessed since
statehood by all odds. The people OF
Redheld and Sphinx county naturally
feel elated over the fine showing.
This sale confirms the faith that
South Dakotans have in the lands Of
the Jim" river valley.

He went to Sioux Falls last Sunday
and on his return was not feeling as
well as he might. Nothing serious
was anticipated but on Wednesday he
informed DR.. Morrison that he was in
a serious condition. The Doctor in
vited him over to his Office, where he
remained seemingly getting along
nicely until about 1 o'clock when a
serious condition of heart action de-
veloped which continued without
improvement under vigorous treat

were summoned but the man continu-
ed to grow weaker until the end which
came about 5:2O
His heart had been in bad condition
for a long time and his recent visit to
Sioux Falls produced a condition
which brought the unfortunate mai
to an untimely end.
He had been employed as a tailor in
Mr.. Sexes tailor shop for a long time,
but recently took up other work in
the Harris Pantorium. He was a
quiet unassuming gentleman, always
pleasant and agreeable and had many
friends here.
He was divorced from his wife some
time ago. She and a II year OLD SON
reside at Marshall, Minnesota. He
has a brother in Chicago and one in
Kansas.

Valdez. Alaska, Aug. 5. 1909,
The Glaciers.


Nothing in Alaska interested our
people SO much as the glaciers. The
glacier forms not only q prominent
portion Of the magnificent scenery.
but it is live moving thing. a mon
ster creeping along al snail's pace,
but with the irresistible force Of a
moving mountain. The glacier grows
on one and the old settler enjoys
watching a "lfve" one work" more
than any newly arrived tourist.
You have read, OF course, what a
glacier is-that 1t Is a stream of
snow and ice flowing down a valley
but all ones reading can give but a
poor conception Of the real thing and
get your expectations up as high as
you will you will not be disappointed
in your first view of real live gla-
cier.
In brief glaciers are formed in
mountainous countries where more
snow falls than can melt and run off.

VACATION NOTES

Building q railroad into the heart
Of Alaska is thing that takes nerve.
There is no local support and no
commercial business. The builder Of
the railroad must develop a country
and industries that will support the
railroad. Obstacles OF which we know
nothing about are met at every turn,
and the cost is far greater than any
other place In America. We saw an
example OF this. The best scenery
crossed two glaciers. It cost $1,000
900 to build bridges across and back
again. across the Copper river in or
der to avoid these glaciers. and 1t
looks to an outsider that little Ice
berg may take out million dollar
bridge any day.
At one place lake Is formed by
water from Miles glacier. A crossing
10 made by ferry. The trains are run
on to the ferry and tug pulls It
a,ross. At the landing q slip Is con-
structed or heavy piling in order to
stear the ferry in Just right to con-
meet the rails on the ferry with the
rails on the shore. These pilings are
made OF immense trees. 2 feet or 2h
feet in diameter. Yet every once in
a while an iceberg floats by and
mows the pilings off Just RS II they
were as many matches. While We
we're on the other side an iceberg
filled up the slip so that the cars
could not be loaded and the passen-
gers were transferred by boat. Men
were at work with dynamite blasting
out the iceberg.
The scenery along this line Is grand
The mountains are as green as can
be and run straight up to the snow.
The line follows the Copper river
which is quite river.
At some points the river is several
miles wide and at another # runs
through a gorge forming rapids that
Niagara Falls. Above the rapids the
steam boats ply the river up for 200
miles.
