death of King Edward VII, rul
er of the United Kingdom Of
Great Britain and Ireland, and OF
the British dominions beyond the
seas, and Emperor of India. He
was born November 9, 1841, and
died May S, 1910, aged about six
tyeight and one-half years. He
was the oldest son of Queen Vic.
toria and Prince Albert, and suc-
ceeded to the throne January 22,
1901, after the death of his mo-
ther and reigned a little more
than nine years. In 1860, at the
age of nineteen years, ne visited
America and made a tour OF the
United States and Canada, which
was an event of great interest
and celebrated with a good deal
of pomp and ceremony. On
March 10, 1863, he married Prin-
cess Alexandra, oldest daughter
of a Danish prince. To this un-
ion were born three sons and
three daughters oldest and
Youngest of the former died; the
second born, George Frederick,
Prince of Wales, Duke of Corn
wall and York, aged fortyfive
years, now becomes king. King
Edwards coronation was finally
accomplished August9 9, 1902, and
was a pageant of great splendor
and worldwide celebration. 1t
is said he was sportive in his
character and somewhat demo-
cratic in the administration OF
his government. His reign was
peaceful, after the conclusion OF
the Boer war, which he found in
progress when he became king.
It is said his successor IS less
democratic than his father, and
does not have such an ardent
love for sports. It is believed
that the court of gaiety prevail
ng under the reign of King Ed
ward VII will be a less marked
feature in the new regime. Thus

To Save the Fish.

For the purpose of saving the tens
of thousands of game fish in Fish lake,
famous body of water in Aurora
county, the sportsmen of Plankinton
and Aurora county have raised the
money required to sink an artesian well
on the shores of the lake. The arte-
sian well which will be four inches in
diameter, will cost about $1,000. The
lake is well stocked with fish, but the
unusually dry summer has greatly
lowered the stage of water in the lake,
and it was certain that if something
was not done the lake would, during
the coming winter freeze to the bottom
and the fish would be killed. The sink
ing of the artesion we'll and the flow
from it will raise the stage of water
and also keep the water in circulation
for considerable distance from the
shore, and thus prevent the fish from
being killed by freezing. The work of
sinking the artesian well will be COM
menced as soon as arrangements can
be made to get drilling machine.

Hills Pioneer Dead.

Col. Moses Thompson, upon whose
report of the property James B. Hag-
gin and the late Senator Geo. Hearst
were induced to buy the famous Home
stake mine at Lead, died at his home
in Deadwood last week after a long
illness with Bright's disease.
Col. Thompson was one of the pion-
eer mining men of this section, coming
here first in 1877 from Nevada and
Utah, where he had been engaged in
mining enterprises. At the instigation
of Cliff Chambers, one of the trusted
employees of the Hearst and Haggin
interests, Col. Thompson made an
examination of the Homestake prop.
erty in 1877 and reported it favorably.
Another expert had reported it unfavor
ably, but was induced to come to Dead
wood and later reverse his report.
The Homestake was then purchased.
How good was Col. Thompson's judg-
ment was shown in the fact that the
Homestake has today paid out over
$21, 600, 900 in dividends, and produces
annually over 81, 900, 600 in gold.
Col. Thompson was 70 years old. He
has a wife in a sanitarium in Chicago,
and two married daughters in Los
Angeles.

Indians to Hold Fair.

Not to be outdone by their white
brethren, who in the states of the
northwest and west hold annual state
fairs, the Indians belonging on the
Rosebud reservation have concluded
arrangements for fair, which in its
way will far surpass those held by the
whites in any of the stales.
The fair will be held at Rosebud
agency, commencing September % and
concluding on the evening of Septem-
"a. In addition to thousands of Indians
from the Rosebud and adjoining reser-
vations, hundreds of white people from
the vicinity of the reservation and
from points in northern Nebraska,
adjacent to the reservation, which
extends to the South Dakota Nebraska
boundary line, will be in attendance.
The fair will have numerous unique
features not found at fairs given by
the whites. The names of the officers
of the association which is to hold the
fair are unique in themselves, being as
follows: President, Ralph Eagle
Feather; vice president, Samuel High
Bear; secretary, John Moore; treasurer
Daniel Good Voice; manager, Reuben
Quick Bear.
Among the sporting events will be a
squaw race, cowboy race, potato race,
horse race, buggy trotting race, pony
races, colt races, saddle horse races,
and races of various other kinds,
including foot races between different
sets of competitors. In addition there
will be roping and tying contests. and
in these the expert Indian cowboys will
be able to show their skill.
Numerous prizes will be given to
encourage the Indians in farming,
stock raising and in improving their
allottments of land and their homes.
The district farmers will report the
names of the Indians under their charge
who has the best cultivated fields this
season, and the three having the best
fields will be given prizes. Three
prizes also will be given the best
Indian women housekeeper. Prizes
will be given the best students in the
reservation schools, and to those who
make the best exhibits of ga.rlen truck
and farm products. Prizes also will be
given the oldest Indian couple in
attendance, and the tallest man found
GU the grounds will be given two
special prizes.
The affair will be the greatest of its
kind ever held on the Indian reserva-
lions of South Dakota.

PIucky Auto Driver

Rib Bruner, an auto driver of Fort
Pierre, while out in the country few
days ago developed case of NERVE"
which few men would show under the
circumstances. He, with companion,
was going down a long slope at a
pretty good clip when the machine
went wrong, throwing both out.
Bruner suffered broken leg, but the
other man came out with few bruises
and, after making Bruner as comfort
able as possible, started after help.
After he left Bruner crawled to the
machine and found he could make it
work, and "cranked up and started
for doctor on his own hook, driving
the machine about twenty miles before
he could secure the medical attention
which he needed.

New Food Law.

DIR. Cook, state food and drug com
missioner has just made his annual
report to Gov. Vessey for the year
ending June 80, 1910. 1t comprises 1863
type written pages. The following are
some of the leading features of the
report:
/. The commissioner has recon-
mended the enactment of three new
laws. (a) Publicity law, requiring all
official papers in the state to publish
the bulletins of analysis as sent out by
the commission. (b) He has recon-
mended the enactment of clean food,
or sanitary inspection law. This would
be a very important law, requiring
grocers to protect foods on sale from
dust and flies. 1t is well known that
through the avenue of both dust and
flies several diseases are communicated
the most prominent of which are tub
erculosis and typhoid fever. 1t is only
recently that we have begun to realize
that more deaths occur in this country
every year on account of the formerly
supposed innocent fly than are caused
by all the wild beasts of the jungle of
India and Africa combined. 1t is high
time, therefore, that something was
being done in South Dakota, as has
been done in several other states. (c)
A net weight law, requiring the net
weight to be placed on all packages of
goods for the purpose of preventing
deception and fraud.
2. The commissioner recommends
a substantial increase in the appropria-
ton in order to be able to enforce all
of the laws now on the statute books.
There are two or three important laws
with which the commission has been
able to do nothing on account of the
lack of funds.
8. The report of the analysis of
foods and drugs on sale in the state.
Over 900 samples have been analysed
in the laboratory, includingo canned
goods, olives, pickles. catsup, SALINE n
oysters, jellies, jams, preserves, syrups
beverages, dried fruits, food colors,
peanut butter, flour, sausage, mince-
meat, mushrooms, chewing gum,
extracts, vinegar, water, spices, lin
seed oil, paints, stock foods. etc. 1t is
found that n per cent of the foods on
sale have passed our law and that q
per cent are illegal. In case of drugs
however, the condition is not so favor.
able, as out of ZIG drugs analysed only
1O7 were found to be passable. This il
the first systematic work on the analy
sis for drugs undertaken in Soutl
Dakota, and it Is expected that il
another year conditions win be yer,
much improved. Several parties wer'
prosscutsd during the year for selling
adulterated foods and drugs.

Fair Closes at Huron.

The closing feature of the twenty
sixth annual fair by the South Dakota
state board of agriculture was the
grand parade of prize winning horeses
and cattle before gathering of $4,000
people, said by stockmen to be one of
the finest ever shown in the United
States. In the procession were animals
that have taken first prize in a series
of state fairs and national and inter
national stock shows. AS the $50 cat
tie and 220 prize winning harses par
AIDED before the grandstand thousands
cheered in admiration.
The attendance throughout exceeded
expectations, totaling in the neighbor-
hood of 100000 for the five days,
breaking all former records. Friday s
program was varied and included
special amusement features and some
of the best races of the week. The
2:18 trot was won by Tom Smith. In
the 3-year-old trot Simpson took the
purse and Eviad, owned by the same
party, won the $1,000 prize in the
2:25 pace.
The state press association, attended
by editors from all parts of the state,
held an informal meeting, as did also
the travelling men, the day being
really given over to these two organ
izations.

State Park Proposed.

The representatives of the state land
department who have been doing field
work in the Black Hills on the selec-
ton of lieu lands for the school sections
in the Forest reserve, which the state
will surrender to the general govern
ment are well along with the work and
few weeks more will clear it up.
The lands to be selected, sixty thou
sand acres in a compact body lie in
townships and south, range six
east, in Pennington and Custer coun-
ties. 1t has been suggested that this
tract be created into state park
where the people of the prairie section
can come for inexpensive summer out
ings among the pine clad hills and
mountains. With proper care this
could be made an ideal outing place
which would be taken advantage of by
hundreds of residents of the state each
summer. The Black Hills are becom-
ing more and more popular as a place
for summer outing. those who go each
year bringing recruits with them in
the future trips and this would aid in
such a move. The coming legislative
session will be called upon to care for
this tract and by going little further
than mere supervision would do the
people of the state great favor.

Suffragists Worried.

The equal suffrage people are feel
ing little uneasy just at present over
the situation in regard to the amend
ment which is to be submitted in
November, which seeks to grant to
them the right of suffrage. There was
considerable milling" in the legis-
lature over the final action on that
resolution, and on final action it was
amended. The original resolution
sought to amend section of article
VII of the constitution, but before it
was finally acted upon it was deemed
best to add section 10 to that article
instead of attempting to doctor section
9. The journals of the legislature
show that the resolution was so
amended and that the title was
amended to conform to that change.
But the engrossing force evidently
''fell down" and while they incorpor-
ated the amendment to the resolution
itself, they failed to make the change
in the title and while the title pro-
posed to amend section 8, the body of
the resolution itself adds section 10 te
that article. The amendment on the
ballot is just as it is shown in chapter
1873 OF the session laws, and is eighty
conflicting, but the house journal on
pare 106o shows the amendmsnt 10 n.
title on motion Of Morris. Il Il no
