N HARD
ON A COUNTY

Pierre, S. D.-The question Of re-
ferring the law to abolish the free
range provision in this state, does not
meet with hearty support in Meade
county. Under the old law, counties
both to the north and south of Meade
couny have voted free range out, and
If the operation of the law is sus-
pended under the referendum, the
homesteaders of that county fear that
herds yet remaining in the western
part o fthe stae will be rushed inc
Meade, as the ycannot be held in the
counties which have eliminated free
range by vote at previous elections.
The people of that county cannot get
a vote ON the proposition before the
general election next year, and they
do not like the outlook If the law is
referred. One man in Meade county
has deposited 500 in a bank at Faith
which he puts up as a forfeit II he
fails to show two arguments why the
new Law should prevail, to one argu-
ment put up by any man as to why
the law should be suspended, and will
leave the decision to the people Of
the county as a whole as to whether
or not he --.s made good on his chal-
lenge.

GIRL FROM
A RUNAWAY HORSE
THRILLING RESCUE OF YOUNG
WOMAN FROM BACK OF RUNA-
WAY HORSE BY A YOUNG
MAN OF NERVE.

Rapid City, S. D.-To pluck a
girl from the back Of a runaway
horse and thus saw her life, and
both escape injury, was the feat per-
formed by a young man named
Tom" Cassidy, who rseides here.
Miss Lorine Robbins, a well known
Rapid City young lady, was riding
on horseback when the animal be-
came frightened and ran away. Cas-
silly saw the danger the young wom-
was in, and, jumping from the
horse which he himself was riding,
he, as the runaway horse approach
ed. grabbed it by the neck and hung
on until it was possible to release
the young woman from her perilous
position. This he did by taking her
from the back Of the horse while it
was still running, after which he
let go of the animals neck and it
fed onward. Those who witnessed
the thrilling rescue declare it SUR
anything in the rescue line
that had ever come to their knowl-
edge. While the rescue was being
effected they expected to see both
the young man and the girl dashed
to their death.

 She chung closely to her father during a recent rainstorm, hiding her little face into his arm when the heavenly artillery thundered in the discharge of its great guns. Curi- osity overcame fear, however, and when she had watched the next dis play of lightning she put her tiny mouth close to her fathers ear.
