Novel By

Kate and Virgil Boyles, of Mitchell.
have just issued their third novel of
western life, entitled 1.-THE Spirit Trail"
the story of which is laid on the reserv-
alton west of Chamberlain. One of the
leading characters in the book is a por-
trayal of the life of the late Bishop
Hare, showing his early work among
the Indians and the great influence for
good that he had among them. The
story brings in a pretty romance of the
plains in which the daughter of the
Indian agent forms a delightful charac-
ter, in which the treachery of the Indian
of those days and the improvement
which gradually came over him is nicely
depicted. The other books of the Boyles
are "Langford of the Three Bars and
1.-THE Homesteaders."

An Honest Community

Onida, a village of perhaps three
hundred people, maintains a public
reading 1t is a nice, comfortable
and clean place, furnished with mission
library tables, chairs and bookcases,
with a nicely selected lot of newspaper
and periodical reading matter and some
two hundred well selected volumes of
current literature. 1t is maintained by
the young ladies of the village, one of
whom cares for it evenings, but the
remarkable thing about it and the high
est compliment to the community is
that it stands open from z a. m. to z p.
m. without a caretaker, islvisited by all
classes of citizens at pleasure and not
so much as a scrap of paper las been
carried away. 1t is far and away the
most attractive resort in town and the
young people assemble there nightly
for reading and social diversion.

away, interest at present centers in the
speakership contest. The leading can
didate is c. j. Morris, of Sioux Falls,
who as chairman of the judiciary COM
mittee, was republican leader in the
house two years ago, and won for him
self a high place in the regard of the
members of the house without regard
to their political affiliations. That Mr..
Morris has the ability and temperament
for an ideal speaker is conceded by all.
Only two candidates are in the field,
Mr.. Morris and Mr.. Isseehuth, of Sphinx
county. So far as has been observed,
the latter has never publicly announced
his candidacy for election as speaker,
his interests being pushed thus far by
personal friends in the north central
part of the state. Himself and Mr..
Morris are warm personal friends, and
any contest between them over the
speakership would leave no sore spots,
no matter which proved the winner.

Aberdeen Buys Park Land

At a special meeting of the city
council of Aberdeen, the purchase of
l60 acres, lying a mile northwest of the
city limits, to be used for park pur-
poses, was completed, the seller being
former Mayor A. N. Aldrich. Last sum-
mer Mr.. Aldrich made the proposition
to the council, but the opponents of the
measure threatened to submit it to the
referendum, and it was withdrawn.
Later an appropriation of SIS, 600 was
made for park extension purposes.
When the matter of the Aldrich tract
came up again, the threat was again
made that the matter would be taken to
the people, when the city attorney
informed the DIRECTORS that as the
money had been provided, the matter
could not be submitted to the referen-
dunn. The motion to make the pur-
chase then carried by a vote of six to
two.

Aberdeenites Easy Marks

A number of Aberdeen people would
like to renew acquaintanceship with a
prepossessing young man, who repre-
sented himself to be Chas. A. Ward,
general manager of the Milwaukee Oil
Refining company of Milwaukee, Wis,
who registered at a leading Aberdeen
hotel with Mrs. Ward, and represented
himself to be looking for a location for
a branch house. Some drafts expected
by Ward did not arrive, and as a mat
ter of accommodation several of his newly
made friends here obliged him by cash
ing checks drawn on the National Ger
mar bank of Milwaukee. MI. and Mrs.
Ward left Aberdeen a few days ago,
buying railroad transportation to Terry,
Mont, and Friday the checks issued by
him during his stay were returned

Over EXertiOn Proves Fatal

An injury resulting from overexert-
ing herself, and which injury at first
appeared to be only a trivial one, has
caused the death of Lille Lunda, the
13-year-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
A. E. Lunda, who live on a farm in the
northeastern part of Turner county.
From the injury acute tuberculosis
developed and now has caused the girls
death. The injury was sustained about
five weeks ago while herself and other
children were playing on the grounds of
the rural school in the Lunda neighbor-
hood.
1t was proposed that the children
should demonstrate which had the most
physical strength. The test consisted
of lifting or attempting to lift a large
iron wheel, filled in with cement, which
served as a cistern cover. None of the
children ahead of the unfortunate girl

some distance before the train could be
stopped. Her limbs were caught under
the drive wheels of the engine and the
flesh cut and lacerated shocKingly,
although the bones were not broken
and she received many bruises about
the body. Mr.. Stimmel was cut about
the head, and a cash was cut in the
scalp four inches long. The young lady
was removed to her home at Clear Lake

be removed below the knee.

Returning home from a neighbors early

into Inconsistencies. He lay there in
that condition until 3 o'clock the next

Bad Tooth Causes Death

James Dunlavy, n of the promi-

home was at Yale, died Friday from
blood poison, resulting from the pulling
of a tooth a week before. Mr.. Dunlavy
was II years of age and leaves a wife
and five children. He went to Huron a
couple of weeks ago and had a tooth
pulled and it is declared that blood pois-
oning resulted from this, causing his
death. He was a prominent membero of
the knights of Columbus and was well
known in the central portion of the

Campaign Expenses

The expense accounts of the differ
ent candidates for state offices in the
recent campaign are beginning to come
in for filing. The heaviest showing so
far made by any one candidate is that
of Chauncey l.. Wood, the democratic
candidate for governor, who shows that
it cost him 50, 015 to be badly defeated
for the position which he sought. Con-
gresham Burke admitted the expendi-
ture of $575, State Secretary Policy
says he spent $3.50 to secure reelection,
and State Land Commissioner F. F.
Brinker only paid out $12O to secure his
election to that place.
