Arch HoXsey, whose awful death by
railing 600 feet in his aeroplane at the
aviation meet at Los Angeles. Cal.
shocked the world, will be cremated
and buried in Pasadena.
Hoxsey's mother, Mrs. NJ. S. Hoxsey
at Pasadena, is bearing up well under
the strain, but it has been decided
that it would not be wise to permit
her to see the horribly mangled body
Of her son. For this reason the body
will be placed in a sealed casket and
eTemated Immediately after the funeral
services.
Hoxsey held the worlds altitude
record, which he won by ascending
1l,474 feet, and a day later sailed ma
iestically 1000 feet above the highest
mountain in California.

mOisant Killed at New orleap

All New Orleans is mourning A
death of John B. Moisant, who
killed by the plunging Of his BlerOt
mOnOplane at Harahan, near there, and
the body was placed in a receiving
vault to await his relatives actions.
He will be buried in Chicago.
MOisant won fame at the meet at
Belmont Park, N. J. Finding himself
without a machine, he purchased one
from a friend for 10000 and within
ten minutes started on his winning
fight around the Statue Of Liberty,
winning a prize of $4,000.
Moisant's aerOplane was a Bleriot

How To Stop
Stubborn Cough

We don't mean just stop the irri-
tation in your throat-but cure the
underlying cause.
Cough syrups cannot do this. It
takes a constitutional tonic body
builder to do the work properly
and cure you to stay cured. Vinol
IS the remedy you need.
HERE Is PROOF
Mrs. Minnie OsgOOd, of GIens Falls;
n. Y, writes;- After trying several REM
edies for a bad cough and cold without
benefit, was asked to try VinOl. It
worked like magic. It cured my cold
and cough and 1 gained in health and
strength. 1 consider VinOI the most
wonderful tonic and invigoratOr ever
saw"
If we cannot stop that cough
with VINOL-our delicious cod
liver and iron tonic-which is made
without Olive will not charge
you a cent for the medicine you
buy. This seems like a pretty fair
proposition-and ought to be &C
cepted. Don't you think so? With
this understanding we ask you to
try a bottle of VINOL.

PLANNING NICE TRIP.
sisseton Auto Owners May Take
Swing Around the Circle"

Ii present plans are carried
out, the next Week on two Wlll
see a long line OF automobiles
leaving Ssseton, loaded to the
guards with the families and
friends OF the owners. Prepara-
Jlons will be made for about a
two day trip, two different
routes being under discussion,
either one of which should prove
pleasurable. The first route
laid out leads first to Old TT. Sis
seton, thence to Brikton, Lang
ford Webster, Waubay. Ortley,
Summit, Milbank, Linden Beach,
Hartford, Wilmot, Agency and
home. The second route, which
appears to have some Slight ad-
vantage over the first ONE, is as
follows: Veblen, Hankimson,
Wahpdton, Fergus Falls, AleNan-
dria, Glenwood, Morris, Grace
willie, Browns Valley and home.
Nothing definite has been decided
upon as yet, but those who are
most actively interesting them
selves in the project report that
the proposed outing is being mot
with enthusiastic favor by the
bubble owners so far seen.

Mr.. Porter admitted that his loss
would be about $40, 900 although
those who claim to know say
these figures are entirely too
modest.
Quite a number Of Roberts
county farmers, who holdstorage
tickets on the elevators of the
Independent company, are also
financially interested in the fall
ure, but it will be some little
time before the full number and
amount of these claims are gener-
ally known.
Fast and loose business methods
and unfortunate specu'ations are
said to be responsible for the
failure of the two concerns con-
trolled by Norby. 1t is also said
that had Norby paid more atter-
ton to business and less to Rob-
erts county and South Dakota
politics, he might still be solvent
and his friends and business
associates might still be prosper
GUS and happy.
Up to last spring, .Norby was
a memberof the board of regents
of the South Dakota university
notwithstanding .at lac. lhas
he has not lived in the state for
several years. This was the
plum given him by ex-Gov.
Crawford for his (Norby's) ac-
tivity in the cause of the Boxer
republicans.
1t is understood that Norby
has already moved his family to
Idaho. where he will Join them
very shortly.

with the thought that there are
others who will miss you more
and who have less chance of
adequate consolation.

Two weeks ago the outlook TO-
small grain in South Dakota was
oil the brightest and most encoul.-
aging character, but now the out
look Is not so encouraging and in
most parts oil the state the crop
OF small grain will be short. Corn
has withstood the weather in
good shape and is in fine condi-
tion. 1t is growing rapidly and
is much farther advanced than
customary at this period. Rains
Thursday night, Friday and Fri
day night of last week have been
very beneficial to crops in many
portions of South Dakota and in
some sections have revived small
grain, which in the greater part
of the state was damagedt to quite
an extent by the unusually hot
weather of Thursday and Friday,
June s and 8, when the tempera-
ture hovered in the vicinity of

have been able to withAand those
two exceedingly hot days had
there been more moisture in the

WELL REPRESENTED.
Prominent South Dakotans At
tend National Charities and
Corrections Meeting.

Boston, June 22.-South Dako-
ia was we'll represented at the
annual meeting of the national
charities and corrections meet
ing held here last week.
The delegates from the Sun
shine state We're w. III. King OF
Parker, secretary OF the state
board OF charities and corrections
A. r. Schlosser, superin tendent
of the state indusltrialschool at
Plankinton, and Howard Simpson
superintendent OF the deaf and
dumb school at Sioux Falls.
When reports were read from
the various states of the union,
Secretary King reported as fol
lows for South Dakota:
"Mr. Chairman and Members oil
the Conference: We hail from
South Dakota, the state that has
produced more new wealth pen
capital annually during the past
ten years than any other. We
believe we have smaller ratio OF
delinquent, defective and Grim
inal people than most if net all
of cur sister states.
"Slnce our last report to this
conference we have opened a sam
tari,m for tubercular patieicts at
Custer, in our beautiful Black Hill
district. This instution is locateo
at an altitude of 5000 feet, and
the state owns or controls GAO
acres surrounding the site. Our
last legislature provided that all
buildings in which the insane are
housed must be absolutely fire
proof and must provide room
for each patient sx12 with nine
foot ceiling. At this same session
an optional juvenile court law
was passed which prohibits the
publication of names of parties
coming before juvenile courts
Other progressive measures re
GENTLY placed upon our statute
books are "a law prohibiting the
sale of cigarettes within saloons.
a law simplifying procedure of
admission into school for deaf
and blind and a compulsory edu-
cation law for the deaf and blind,
a bill permitting parole of life
convicts after they have served
eighteen years OF actual time, al
so a law permitting the parole of
convicts serving under the indie
terminate sentence law.

Dakota, While we have not Sc
cured all that we have desired in
the way of reform measures, we
are progressing nicely" "

as has also the Independent

which .Norby was the controlling

1t is impossible at this time to
estimate just how much money

assets consist chiefly Of the office

list Of all who have been hit by
the failure, although it is gener-
ally conceded that Hon. C. F.
Porter, Of Wilmot, and Judge
Frank McMulty, of Aberdeen,
are the chief sufferers. A local
financial institution is also said
to be in bad, but just how much
their loss will be is a matter of
conjecture.

COUlItR'S FAMOUS R.-R. SHOWS

The great Coulter Show, which
is advertised to appear in Sisse-
ton July 4, claims to be different
from other shows, and, judging
from the great variety of feat
ures and attractions advertised
it will have no trouble to con-
vince it's patrons that it is very
different from other tent shows.
After due reflection, the oft re-
peated sentiment, when you
have seen one circus you have
seen them all" appears very abb
surd. One might as we'll say.
when you have read one maga-
zine, you have read them ALL"

lecture you have heard them all, "
or when you have heard one

will convince the most skeptical,
such sentimental talk is foolish,
without foundation, and upon in
