RUGBY PEOPLE
enter PROTEST

RUGBY, N. D., Sept. 1.-the city
council is preparing complaint which
will be forwarded to the state board
of railway commissioners. concerning
the Main street crossing in this city
and the careIessness with which en-
gines and trains are operated across
said crossing. This crossing is recog.
nized as an extremely hazardous one
and several people have lost their lives
there in the past, but for the last two
years or more the company has kept
a Waterman for the crossing, which
helps considerable. There seem to
be many times, however, when there
is no Waterman there, and he will be
found unloading freight-trusting to
l Is sense of hearing to tell him when
train is coming in for him to get
out. The company should not require
the Waterman at this place to do any.
thing else but attend to that crossing.
Especially SO, as there are forty OF
fifty children who have to cross tn
track three or four times a day on
tLeir way to and from school,

PEIR|F|ED FOOT
OF HUMAN Being
TO Be EXHIBITED
Remarkable Discovery Of a
Stark County Resident
ArouseS Conjecture

While excavating in his front yard
for the purpose of planting tree
Mr.. John Daley, of Dickinson, N. d.
exhumed a petritied foot-the right
foot of a man, with shoe on it.
The most skeptical persons that
see this wonderful curiosity concede
the authenticity of the find.
The front part of the foot only was
found, this shows the tip, vamp, the
lacing of the strings, a half sole near
ly, or quite worn through, and two
we'll defined patches, one on either
side.
The find is most interesting and
gives rise to conjecture as to when
and how the person came to be bur-
led where he now lies as there can be
but little doubt that the balance OF
the man lies buried where his foot
was found.
If person might be allowed to exer'
else their imagination, there are two
events in the history of this region
that might have furnished the origin
of this mystery, the Hunt expedl-
ton" of 1912, and the Sully campaign
of 1864.
The first event took place in 1872
when the "Hunt expedition" was CO.
operating with John Jacob Astor's &C.
tivities, when that enterprising 1ndl'
vidual was building the city OF AS
toria on the Pacific coast. This ex-
petition was QUILTED at Mackinaw
from whence it went to St. Louis via
the usual route through Green Bay,
thence to Lake Winnebago, up the
upper Fox river to the portage be-
tween the Fox and Wisconsin river,
thence down the Wisconsin and Mis-
sissippi rivers to St. Louis.
After completing their preparations
for their westward trip across the
continent, Hunt followed exactly in
the footsteps of the Lewis & CLARK
expedition until a point was reached
little south Of where the present
line between the states OF North and
South Dakota, When he dIverged to
a point where Haley, North Dakota
now is. He strapped here long enough
to- 70 northward uip Fort Rerthoid and
purchase ponies for Use CD the e1pe'
tirion and this di9resHion from tnslr
route would logically bring tile party
past the present site Of Dickinson
The secnud event would be the stop.
ping OF SuIly's command at the same
point when or its westward marc1
before the battle OF KiIldeer mountain
The conclusion then must be that
either OF these expeditions might have
furnished the incident that contribut'
ed to the burial OF one OF their num-
Der where the petrthed foot was
found so many years after. Tie soil
in which the tomb was dug is meta.
morphic sand highly impregnateo
with salines, notably Glauber-Salts
and gypsum. :.
OF course it is not known that 1t
would be necessary for so long time
to elapse as has interviewed between
either Of the above mentioned times
and the present, to so thoroughly pre-"
serve in stone a foot subject to petri'
flying conditions. 1t might be that
some more recent happenings con-
tributed to give US very interesting
relic of paleontology, which may be
seen at the Stark county booth In

As Things were
THIRTY YEARS Ago

I CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Sept. 49,
Here is something from the Chamber
lain Register of 80 yeals ago, which
shows what this country was at that
time. 1t may be consoling to those
who kick on the high cost of living.
James Dugan called at our landing
last week, while en- route to st. Louis,
says the old Chamberlain paper.
"Dugan had 10 tons of buffalo meat
on his craft. His party consisted OF
four who killed last winter 1000 buf'
falo. .Dugan himself killed $50 buf'
falo, 125 black tail deer, 80 antelope,
SIS elk (32 at one sitting). He states
that owing to the severe winter over
200, 1000 buffaloes W re killed and still
he says the country between the Can
nonball and the Little Missouri ia full
of them. He paid as high as $50 a
sack for flour and 20 cents a pound
for salt last winter.
