KTTREDGE MEMORIAL
CHANGE OF PROGRAM WILL
BE APPROVED
LIFE SIZE BUST SUBSTITUTED
1t Has Been Decided to Install
a Life Size Bust of the Late
Senator Instead of "A
Portrait at the State
Capitol

The Alfred Beard Kittredge Memo
rial committee which some time ago
tentatively decided to order an oil
painting of the late senator, for install
lation at the state capitol at Pierre, has
received such cordial support from the
friends of the late senator over the
state that it has felt itself justified in
changing the plan, and providing a
memorial which in its judgment will be
more fitting, and more permanently
satisfactory.
Accordingly, the committee, at its
meeting on Tuesday afternoon, entered
into a contract with H. Daniel Webster,
the well-known sculptor, who formerly
lived in Sioux Falls, but who now has
his studio in New York city, for a life
size marble bust of the late senator.
This bust is to be of Tennessee marble
and when completed will be installed
in the capitol. Mr.. Webster is the
sculptor who made the statute of Cen
eral Beadle which has just been placed
in the capitol. He asks for six months
time in which to make the clay model,
and when this is accepted by the COM
mittee for six months more in which
to complete the bust. Thus it will be
a year before the bust can be presented
to the state, and installed in its niche
in the state house.
The committee has not funds enough
in hand to pay the cost of the contract,
but there are many friends of the late
senator who have not yet sent in their
subscriptions but who will want to be
counted among the donors. 1t is the
desire of the committee to close up this
part of the work without further delay,
and those who are interested, are
requested to remit their subscriptions
promptly to E. G. Kennedy, of Sioux
Falls, president of the American
National bank, and treasurer of the
committee.

GOVERNORS SPECIAL
OBJECT TO RETURN COUR-
TESIES EXTENDED
TO BETTER UNDERSTANDING
And TO influence Tide of Immi.
grafton Toward the North
west That Now Flows
Into the Westert Part
OF Canada.

immigration Commissioner Deets
appeared before the Commercial club
at the noon session today to urge
cooperation in the Governors Special
train which is to tour the middle and
eastern states in the interests of the
west. Response was prompt and
hearty and a committee consisting of
Isaac Lincoln and c. A. Russell was
appointed to raise $500 to help defray
the expenses Of a state exhibit in the
special cars hat will be devoted to
that purpose.
The train will leave st. Paul on the
evening of November q, and the trip
will present a great opportunity for
western executives to combine business
and the welfare Of their respective
states with pleasure.
While the purpose of the trip is,
ostensibly, to return the courtesies
that have been extended to the differ
ent sections Of the west, through the
numerous visits of eastern commercial
organizations, and to promote a better
understanding between the two Sec
tons of the country, the opportunity
that will be presented of influencing
the tide of immigration that has been
flowing into western Canada, to turn
to the American west.
The special is expected to call the
attention of fasteners to the marvel
Gus opportunities that await the settler
in the west.
Among the principle events that the
Governors Special party will attend
are the session of the national Rivers
and Harbors congress at Washington
and the gathering of governors from
the southeastern states which will con
vene in Baltimore. Washington is
being visited at the special invitation
of President Taft, who, on the occasion
of his recent western tour, recognized
the movement officially and extended g
formal invitation to the specials party
to call upon him at the White House.
In each of the ten states participat'
ing, the work of gathering comprehen'
sive displays of each states resources
is progressing enthusiastically, and
when the special visits the east during
the coming month every section of the
west will be ably represented both by
exhibits and missionaries of the new
west.-Aberdeen News.

The candles being shaded with yellow
shades decorated with witches and
black cats. The rest of the company
were seated at small tables, the same
style of shades being used, miniature
brownies, dressed in the appropriate
color decorated these tables and held
small dishes filled with almonds. A
very nice three course lunch was
served, Mrs. 7. E. Haugen, assisting.
Miss Mabel Alley favored the company
with two vocal solos. A guest from
out of town was Mrs. John Lockhart,

October precipitation for six years:
Pulled In For The Season

After making a thirty-nine day run
with their threshing machine, Pratt
Bros. moved their rig home Tuesday of
last week. During the fall they
threshed for twenty-one farmers, many
of them having a much better yield
than expected, wheat yielding four to
sixteen bushels to the acre, while some
farmers had an average of eleven
bushels. Oats and barley was a light
crop, but flax made a good yield, rang
ing from twelve to twenty-one bushels
to the acre. Pratt Bros. thresheo
buck wheat on their farm, making a
yield of thirty-four bushels to the acre.
This is another year that has proved
what good farming will produce. Some
farms producing more than three
thousand dollars worth of grain, while
poorly prepared and successive cropped
lands produced a light crop.

Very Lucky Escape

On Sunday morning Oscar r. John
son, who is an employee at the Phil
brook Livery barn, took out a saddle
horse recently brought in from the pas
ture to give him a little exercise. 1t
was a broken horse and not considered
a bucker, but when he got in front of
the Commercial Hotel, commenced to
pitch, and showed he was an adapt at
the game, throwing the rider over his
head. Johnson landed on his head and
back, the fall rendering him uncon-
scious, the back of his head coming in
contact with a stone, infiicting an ugly
scalp wound. Professor Simmons and
Andy Ditmanson picked him up and
Doctor Schenecker dressed the wound
and the patient, aside from being sore
from the effects of the shaking up, is
all right again and will suffer no per-
manent injury from his experience.

UNCOMFORTABLE CLOSE
CHARGE FROM GUN GETS
PART OF HIS HAIR
WILL. HEINZ HAS ACCIDENT
Shot Gun Goes Off When He
Sets 1t Down. Only Dam
age Done is "A Few
Grains of Burnt
Powder in His Face

On Monday afternoon while husking
corn on his fathers farm in Racine
township, William Heinz had a narrow
escape from what might have been a
fatal accident. Ducks had been flying
about the field and thinking he might
get a shot he took a gun out with him.
He saw a flock coming, took the gun
out of the wagon and waited, but the
birds saw the outfit and turned before
coming in range. William set the gun
down by the wagon but forgot to let
down the hammer and thinks a thistle
struck the trigger; at any rate the gun
was discharged, the contents passing
by the left side of his face close enough
to take off some of his hair. The con-
cussion knocked him down, but aside
from a few grains of powder in his
face and eye no damage was done. He
came to town Tuesday morning and
Doctor Schenecker dressed his face and
no serious results are anticipated. 1t
was a mighty close call and William is
to be congratulated OF getting away so
easily.

HEAD ON COLLISION
STOCK TRAIN CRASHEDINTO
FREIGHT AT BRISTOL
ONE MAN INSTANTLY KILLED
Several Others More or Less
Seriously Injured MIstak-
in@ Sigma to Slow Down
For One to Pull Ahead
The Cause

The mistaking of a signal to slow
down for a signal to go ahead caused
a head-on collision at $50 Sunday
morning at Bristol between ar east
bound Milwaukee stock train and a
west bound freight Instantly killing c.
E. Gunion, an emigrant bound for
Watson, Mimi, and injuring several
others.
The stock train crashed into the
freight, breaking the pilots on both
engines and causing a N emigrant car on
the oncoming train to break in two,
instantly killing its occupant, who was
asleep. This was the only car that
was materially damaged, it being a
long, light carriage car.
Two other emigrants were slightly
injured, Engineer Phil Hughes, of
Montevideo, Mimi, had his hand
crushed, and c. G. Caspers, the brake
man, was hit with flying pieces from
the wreck.
A w~recking train carrying Superin-
tendent j. T. Gillick. Trainmaster
Martin Flanagan. O. F. Waller,
division freight and passenger agent,
and several other officials of the road
left Aberdeen at 7 o'clock for the scene
of the wreck, and soon had the main line
cleared, with no loss of time to the
passenger traffic,
Superintendent Gillick stated that it
was a very insignificant wreck to cause
the damage that it did, and that there
would be little blame attached to any
one as it was clearly a mistaken signal
and not a case Of carelessness.
c. E. Gunion was bound from Het-
finger to Watson, Mimi, his home, and
was accompanied by Julius M. Albert
son and Stephen E. Peterson, also
bound from Hettinger to Watson, and
both married. These two men were
injured about the bedy and head gen.
orally. Joseph Stein, bound from
Raleigh, N. D., to Linsborough, Mimi,
suffered a dislocation of the right hip
ana vas injured about the head and
face. Geo. Anderson suffered injuries
to both feet in jumping from the train.
Geo. Siebert, of Java, who was stand
ing on the platform, suffered injuries
to his left elbow and the nerves of his
hand, being hit by flying particles from
the wreck. F. w. Kemp, of Eagle
Butte, was also injured.
Drs. R. L. and B. c. Murdy, Milwau-
kee physicians, spent the better part Of
Sunday doing what could be done to
relieve the injured, returning home
Sunday night at a late hour. -Aber-

more failures than success, but the
number of fairly important races that
have cone the way of Americans has
