At Sioux City, Iowa, Roosevelt paid
Congressman Martin the following trib-
ute: Although 1 am in Iowa, want
to say word for South Dakota friend
who is here, Congressman Martin. He
also was man who absolutely stood
by me on every point throughout my
term, and with whom was able to work
in hearty sympathy for every progress
sive policy. All three of these men,
Dolliver, Hubbard and Martin, I found
after trying them out stood without
hitching. Perhaps that simile suits
South Dakota better than Iowa, where
should say they have never kicked
over the pail"

AN IDEAL HOME WEDDING

Thursday of last week-Sept. 8. 1910
the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. George
Smith, southeast of Custer, was the
scene of an ideal home wedding. Pre-
cissly at / o'clock p. m. the families oi
the bride and groom and their guests
gathered In the living room which was
beautifully decorated with Autumn
Leaves, Golden Glow and our lovely Black
Hills Wintsrgreen Vine, and awaited
the coming of the bridal party.
Little Helene Mclaughlin appeared
first, as ring-bearer. A very charming
little maiden, bearing with sweet dignity
| a lovely rose, in the heart of which lay
the wedding ring.
The best man and the brides maid
Mr.. Keith Powell, with his sister, Miss
Faith, came next and then the bride and
groom, Mr.. Henry r. Albien and Miss
Ethel Smith. The bride looking most
lovely in an exquisite dress of.white net
over silk, and carrying . bouquet Of
Cream roses. All took their places
under beautiful arch of Autum
leaves and Rov. Katherine w.
Powell performed the marriage GER
emony, using the stately and ancient
Episcopalian form, modified slightly by
Congregational usage.
At the conclusion of the ceremony
congratulations and best wishes were
showered upon the happy couple. The
guests inscribed their names in the
Brides Book" and then the bride pre-
sided over an informal meeting Of the
unmarried guests, to whom she threw
her bouquet. Miss Mary Heumphreus
was the prize winner, and therefore her
announcement cards may be expected
within the year.
An elegant lunch was then most dain-
tily served, the hostess being ably
assisted by Mrs. Olive Mclaughlin and
Mrs. A. J. Jones, with Miss Josie Court
ney to aid in serving.
The groom is one of the most talented
and popular young gentleman who has
grown to manhood in Custer, his native
town. He is civil engineer by profes.
sion, and is now engaged in business in
Helena, Montana. The bride is we'll
known in Custer, not only as a most
efficient teacher, but very talented
and witty young lady. The pair are
admirably adapted to each other and
their outlook for happiness seems OF
the best, while the consideration In
which they are held by their friends
was manifested by the beautiful we'd
ding presents received.
After luncheon little Miss Helene
Mclaughlin presided over the final GER
emony-the giving to each guest in de- |
parting, dainty box filed with brides
cake. The younger guests were sup
posed to dream over this-the older, to |
dream about 1t.
A merry party gathered at the depot
the same evening to see Mr.. and Mrs.
Alben Jr. safely on their wedding jour
ney, and they were duly congratulated
and showersd both with good wishes
and rice. The best wishes of host of
friends 90 with them to their new home
in Helena, Montana. To which the
CHRONICLE would add, "play their hearts
grow fonder as they journey together
upon the matrimonial sea-"

Or been shown you cannot run 1t,

Let up!
When it's over don't stay nettled-

Put up just the hardest scrap
In you 'gainst the other chap;
When one Of you's off the map,
Let up!
Don't 10 trying to explain
Let up!

Let others do the squawk,

Do your level best to win;

Whitney win Not Quit Turf.

Obviously there is no basis for the
report that Harry Payne Whitney will
retire from the English turf On the
contrary. he has made twelve entries;
for 1912. which is taken as proof that
ne will stick to racing abroad. His
stable. under the management of Jack
Joyner. has up to date duplicated its
successes of 1909 and has carried off
more stakes and purses than any 9TH
er stable
While Mr.. Whitney has not captured
any OF the classic events his success
exceeds the most sanguine expecta
lions. He has nominated twelve horses
for the Derby Of 1912. There are 364
nominations, Of which tWenty-seven
are from the United States.
Louis Winans has not abandoned
hope Of capturing the Derby. This
was established when he paid j. E.
Madden $4,000 for Sir Martin. Mr..

PRINCIPLES Of EIinh+-

Every boy who has played the thrill
ing game of ''tickly benders' on par
ticularly thin ice has applied the prin-
ciple Of the aeroplane or heavier than
air machine. AS long as one fairly flies
along the Ice viii bear ones weight,
although it may sag or threaten. Let
the speed slacken for an instant, or
the skater come to standstill and the
experiment will be at an end for that
day at least.
Now an aeroplane may be kept aloft
on exactly the same principle. Let
these broad planes stand still for a
moment and they will begin to lutter
downward or turn on edge and plunge
swiftly to the ground By keeping
them moving. however. they gain the
very slight supporting power Of the
air The greater the speed the more
level is the fight and the less the
chance of falling An aeroplane fight,
therefore, is a glorious game of tickly
benders high up among the birds.-St.
Nicholas.

Kid Elberfeld, the washington Amer
leans star third baseman, has the rep
utation Of being out of the game more
than any other player In the big
leagues today, and it is no wonder that
such is the case, for where is there a
player who takes more chances? When
at the bat Elberfeld never tries to
avoid a pitched ball, no matter where
It may hit him, and when covering a
base, unlike most players, who try to
avoid the spikes of a base runner, FL
berfeld stands still If by so doing he
has an advantage
Elberfeld is no longer a youngster.
He is thirty three years old and has
been in the game for some years, and
vet there is not more interested or
hard working player In the business.
There is no chance too hazardous for
Elberfeld to tackle. and this explains
why he is SO often out of the game
with injuries
