Mitchell Protests

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. have been sent
out from several towns which are
candidates for the location of the
Methodist hospital which matter is TO
be presented at the conference In
this city next week in which an in
Justice was done Mitchell, one of the
aspirants for the hospital. 1t was
stated in a Huron dispatch that the
Methodists of Mitchell had withdrawn
from the race, and that they had
thrown their support to Huron. The
statement was made without the least
authority from the Methodists of this
city and was wholly an assumption
on the part Of the Huron writer.
Mitchell is in the race to remain until
the hospital is located at some point
In the state, although there is not
mich probability of its being done at
this session of the conference.

Clubs viii Hold Conference

Aberdeen-The Lennon CONNER
cial club has appointed a COM
mittee to come to Aberdeen to con-
fer with the aberdeen Commercial
club regarding the alleged excessive
freight rates prevalent in this sec
ton of the northwest, with a view to
presenting a protest to the interstate
commerce commission at Its meet
ing in Aberdeen to be held soon.
The Lennon club has sent COM
munications to the Commerc al clubs
at Hettinger, N. d., Reeder, N.
D., Bowman, N. D., and Mcln-
tosh, Morristown, Rhame and Scran-
ton, asking them to join with Lem
mon in the protest and 1t is probable
delegations from all the towns named
will be in Aberdeen on the 10th to In
terview the commerce commission.
In addition to freight rates, the Lem
mon club complains ofNthe telegraph
and telephone rates between Aber-
deem and Lennon. The Aberdeen
business men will probably join with
the Lennon people in asking a read
justment and reduction of rates.

CHARITIES BOARD
BIENNIAL REPORT TO THE Gov
ERNOR RELATING TO IN
STITuTlONS MADE
HOSPITAL FOR THE INSANE
Over One and a Half Millions are In
vested in Penal and Charitable
Properties the Greater
Part at Yankton

Pierre-The board OF charities and
corrections have filed their biennial
report with the governor, which goes
into deta in regard to the manage
ment and operation Of the different
institutions Under care of that body.
The only new institution which has
been placed under their oare for the
year is the hospital for tubercular
patients at Custer. While the last
legislative session made provision for
such an institution, on account of the
trouble of the board in securing title
to a tract of land which was consider
ed sufficient for the needs of the in
stitution, nothing was done until this
summer, when after the people of Gus
ter had donated a site the board pro-
ceeded to get the institution in share
for handling patients. A s~uperintend-
ent was chosen and the erection of the
building begun. AS but five thousand
dollars was appropriated for building
the construction work will not be ex-
tensive for this year, and will likely
be more in the way of detached cot
tages, at all times than any attempt
at a large central nome.
The board shows that the state has
property interests in the various in
stitutions under their care of over a
million and half dollars. In detail
the list shown is as follows:
Training school at Plankin-
ton $113,750
Blind asylum at Gary $3.50. 41,100
Deaf Mute school at Sioux
Falls 49,. 49,. ........ S4,6S5
Penitentiary at Sioux Falls 291 203
Insane hospital at Yankton. 882,3l5
Northern hospital at Redfeld 215, sos
Total ............ .......$t,633,SS S.
This property valuation includes
both the buildings and the real prop
erty which is connected with them. On
the buildings the state is carrying in
surance to the amount of $60S,500.
The board gives a strong endorse
ment to the work of the Children's
Home at Sioux Falls, which, while
not a state institution, Is kept under
view by the board. They also rec
ommend that the next legislative ses-
sion enact a law requiring that every
county jail, county poorhouse, or
county farm, be inspected by some
authoritiye body, not less than one
a year, and that the inspecting body
be given power to require such
remedial methods as may lie demand
ed for such institutions. The report
which is a long one covers all the de-
tails of management of the different
institutions under care OF the board.

Ranid ARMY MohiIizationl

The finest example of rapid organ
ization of an army was certainly the
mobilization of the German army in
1870. On July II in that year the IA
nous telegram, the shortest and most
momentous ever dispatched. ''Krieg.
Mobil." went forth from the headquar-
tiers at Berlin, and within fortnight
an army of 100000 men, fully uni
formed. equipped and provided with
commissariat, was on its way. to the
French frontier. or course-it must be
remembered that all these men had
been previously warned and that all
had been through their period of mill
tary training.-London Answers.

Grim Scot Wit.

A Scottish minister had among his
parishloners a man who dealt in old
horses, alternating his spells of labor
with heavy sprees. During the Pc
Rod of depression which followed each
overindulgence John habitually took to
bed and there diligently studied the
family Bible. During one of these fits
of attempted reformation his condition
prompted his wife to call in the Rev.
Mr.. Wallace. the parish minister, who
at the time happened to be passing.
"Oh, Master Wallace. come in and
see our John; he's rale badw

said Mrs. John.

ply:

A HENRY CLAY STORY.
Fate of the Resolution lnstruetins Him
How to Vote.

Fate of the Resolution lnstruetins Him
How to Vote.
Adlai Stevenson In Something of
Men l Have Known" commenting on
Henry Clay, tells this anecdote:
Possibly since the foundation of the
government no statesman has been so
completely idolized by his friends and
party as was Henry Clay. Words are
meaningless when the attempt Is made
to express the idolatry of the Wings
of his own state for their great chief
tain. For a lifetime he knew no rival.
His wish was law to his followers.
In the realm of party leadership
greater than he hath not appeared. At
his last defeat for the presidency
strong men wept bitter tears. When
his star set it was felt to be the sig
nal for the dissolution of the great
party of which he was the founder.
In words worthy to be recalled, when
the tidings came like wailing over the
state that Harry Percy's spur was
cold the chivalrous felt somehow the
world had grown commonplace"
The following incident along the line
indicated may be considered charac-
teristic. While Mr.. Clay was sena-
tor a resolution, in accordance with
some time custom, was introduced
into the Kentucky house of represent
atives instructing the senators from
that state to vote In favor of certain
bill then pending in congress. The
resolution was in the act Of passing
without opposition when hitherto
silent member from one of the noun
tain counties, springing to his feet.
exclaimed, "Mr. Speaker, am to I'M
derstand that this legislature is under.
taking to tell Henry Clay how to
voter The speaker answered that
such was the purport of the resolution.
At which the member from the moun-
tains, throwing up his arms, exclaim-
ed, Great heaveni" and sank into his
seat 1t is needless to add that the
resolution was Immediately rejected
by unanimous vote.

M.arinos OF th. Word nstov..n


The word ''stove" as applied to a
heater for room seems to be Of
about the same age as the article
which the name Is now applied, for,
while the word as a name had an ex-
istence in early English, it was used
In a different sense. Both Lord Ba-
con and Woodward used 1t as refer
ring to a house or room artifcially
warmed and particularly dollhouse
for plants. Bacon also used the word
as verb in the way of keeping warm
in a house or room, as ito stove orang
trees and myrtles," to quote from his
writings. Pepys used the verb in a
nautical sense. as heating for the pur-
pose of making pliable. as ''stove boil
ropes" But all these definitions are
obsolete now, such disuse dating FROM
the time when Dr. Franklin made
his discoveries and applications. The
French word ''etuve." 1t may be add
ed. describes a dollhouse or bathing
room and hence Is parallel in mean.
