MILLER'S WAY
THE BEST EVER
Neighboring Towns Unanimous
I'm Their Praise OF MiIler'S
Celebration

The following are a few of the re-
marks clipped from the nelghboring
papers concerning Miller's big
Fourth celebration. 1t is the un-
animous opinion that it was the
largest crowd ever gathered togeth-
er between Huron and Pierre.
Yale Echo-The celebration of
celebrations was sure enough at
Miller this year. At an early hour
Monday morning teams, autos and
trains began bearing the enormou
crowd that was to make a record
breaker for the city of Miller. The
three days race meet advertised in
connection with the Fourth of July
celebration was a drawing card, and
the crowd that assembled in that
hustling little city was indeed I'M
menSe.
The races each afternoon were
truly interesting as was evidenced
by the $500 who witnessed the same
on Monday. Especially is praise due
the committee which looked after
the welfare Of the visitors, as the
members were UrelcSS in their
efforts and spared 10 means to see

The Sting Of Death.
From the Living Age.

l. rom the Living Age
A schoolboy can hardly be persuaded to
believe that he is not immortal, so far of
and unreal seems the finality of death
But no man passes the age of thirty with
out feeling within himself a strong and
almost resentful recognition of the GER
tainty of death. 1t is probable that in
the time of life which Immediately pre-
inevitablity OF death is more powerful
than at any other. After middle age the
idea becomes tOlerable because the mind
IL familiar with it and partially recon-
ciled to 1T, and when old age deepens
about man he busies himself with
thoughts of death-by one of the most
kindly Of natures paradoxes-hardly more
than a little child. very old man may
be dreadfully perturbed If dinner is late.
if an expected letter does not arrive. or
If trusted clock stops, but he is by no
means perturbed by the perceptible ap-
proach of death. There is gentle and mer-
ciful slackenng of the senses. He Is little
more sensible of the removal of those few
of his contemporaries who have remained
than he is of the certainty that he must
soon join them, There is scarcely such
a thing as a shock for very old man.,
for a shock postulates the nervous power
to be shocked, and he is almost without
that. THE sting of Dr. ath' seems to us
to be a phrase with an exclusively moral
import 1t is SO used in the New Tesla
ment. 20 death, where is thy sting?' 1t
has none for those who believe in the con-
tinuance of personal identity.
The circumstances of death are full q
awe, yet there is mo passion of the mind
of man so weak but it masters the power
of DEATH Thus revenge triumphs over
