An attack of heart failure last Satur-
day afternoon closed the earth life OF
Florence Nightengale, the world-famed
nurse of the Crimean War. She was 80
years old last May. She was the first
woman to organize nursing corps for
an army in action, and since her noble
and energetic work in the Crimean War,
her advice had been sought with regard
to the handling of the wounded in bat
tie. When the civil war in the United
States broke out Miss Nightengale gave
her advice on camp nursing and camp
sanitation, and the United States Sani-
tsry Commission, organized by women,
was the fruit of her labors And this
finally led to the formation of the famous
Red Cross Society, which does splendid
work not only on the battlefield, but
also in times of disaster by flood, fire
and earthquake.

CUSTER BEATS CHERoKrEs

Monday afternoon before one of the
largest crowds Of the season the Chero-
kee Indians met defeat at the hands OF
what they considered easy money the
big chief saving his best pitcher for
Deadwood but before the first inning
was over he had relieved No. /, and in
seventh took out No. 2 and used the
twirler who held Deadwood to two hits.
Our boys batted like Western Leaguers
in first inning. Biddle got walk; Wit
eel hit to right for two bases W. Court
ney hit to right scoring Biddle and Wit
eel; Alkire hit by pitcher; Bond hit to
left for two bases; Wilson singled past
short, scoring Alkire and Bond Heide-
priem hit hard one to second baseman
who fumbled, Wilson taking third; B.
Courtney hit slow one to short, Wilson
scoring but B. Courtney out at first /;
Blondy hit to short, holding Heidepriem
at third, out at first; Biddls flied to
short; side out and no more chances to
score during game.
In second inning, Indians on first and
second, short fly hit to left field look
ed good for score but Blondy came
plunging in head6rst, grabbed the
ball before it hit the ground,
winged it to b. Courtney to Witzel max
ing triple play. The Indians got their first
score in the sixth inning on two base
hit to left, ball getting lost and the run
ner going home. They received anoth-
or present in ninth on wild throw over
third by catcher. All feel glorious over
the defeat of the painted warriors and
expect to use Hot Springs the same way

suit of the score;

We owe it to the community in which
We live to do everything we can in every
way possible that will be to its advan,
tage. Our neighbours prosperity means
a great deal more to us than someone's
who lives elsewhere. We should bear
this in mind in buying our goods. We
can afford to pay our home man a firm
price for his wares rather than send
our money away, knowing as we dc
that every dollar our own citizen makes
will help in sustaining our schools,

pays richly to patronize home industry.

TEN dooD RnAsoEs.

While In the Rapid City postofice ont
day last week, q newspaper man noticed
people buying money orders to pay fol
goods purchased from mail order houses
in Chicago.
While there is not any way to prevent
people from spending their money where
they please and whenever they please
there is some reason in calling their
attention to the fact that trading with
mail order houses is not in the long run
good policy. 1t tends to build no Chi.
cago and pull down Rapid City and other
home towns. The goods purchased are
no better, If as good, as those bought ol
home merchants. The prices are not
lower when the freight is added and the
terms are spot cash. Ifan honest man
wants to buy goods on time he can do 80
OF the home merchant, but if he wants
to buy goods in Chicago the cash must
90 with the order. 1t is next to impossi
BILE to exchange the goods bought of Chi
cago mail order houses and the time and
patience expended in trying to get things
Strengthened out is much more valuable
than the few cents that might be saved
in the purchase Of certain article.
To build up country right the doc.
trins of reciprocity must be followed.
The Omaha Trade Exhibit recently
compiled the following good reasons
why people should trade with their
home merchants. What applies to Oma-
ha applies to Rapid City but with great
er force.
Here are Ten Good Reasons:
l. Your home merchants can dupli-
cate the prices made by any responsible
concern anywhere on goods of equal
quality, in the same quantities and on
the same basis of delivery and payment.
2. You can examine your purchases
in the home stores and be assured Of
satisfaction before investing your money.
8. Your home merchants, are always
ready and willing to make right any
error or any defective articles purchased.
4. Your home merchants help sup
port, through direct or indirect taxation,
your schools, churches, libraries and
other public institutions.
8. Your home merchants help to
make a good local market for everything
you have to sell, and that market-more
than any other one factor-gives your
land its present value.
6. Your home merchants are your
good friends, ever ready to extend o
helping hand in time of need.
7. If this community is good enough
for you to live in and make your money
in, it is good enough to spend it in.
8. The best citizens in this community
are those who believe in and practice
home patronage. Be one of the best
9. The merchants in the distant city
give you nothing valuable that home
cannot give you-and the
former cannot and will not do for you
many things the latter do gladly.
10. Every dollar kept in circulation
in this community helps increase prop
erty values. Every dollar sent out of
this community that could as well be
spent here hinders the wheels of pro-
gress and helps build up some other COM
munity at your expense.-Rapid City

Goodbye, Summer.

Have you noticed the change in the
weather since August took the reins?
You wouldn't think 1t was time for fall
weather, and in reality it isn't; but you
see July gave it to US so strong that he
ran his supply of sulphur and birthstone

mize little on heat. But we can stand
it.
There is really different "feel" in the
air. The sunlight is yellower and mel

tice change, too. A whole lot of the
leaves are turning yellow, and not
few of them are falling off This latter
movement is not general yet, of course,
but there is just enough of it to make US
think.
The truth of the matter is, the real,
red hot summer is over. We know it
when we mark the smoky hilltops, and
the yellow square of sunlight on the
floor. We have a feeling, too, that we
ought to be sorry about it, but somehow
We can't. The past month has been too
strenuous, and we have been signing for
relief.
1t is fact, too, that autumn 10 the
pleasantest time of the whole year in

often includes the first half of winter.
Cool, sunny, pleasant days, filled from
dawn to dark with fresh, inyigorating
ozone, that is like wine to the weary
