Editor Reporter and Farmer,
Webster, 5. ID.
Dear SIR:
We expect to start north in a
few days, SO don't send any more
papers mere, but hold them at Webster
until we get there, which will be about
the first of June. as we expect to go
up through Colorado and the Black
Hills. and will make several stops on
the way.
Ii has been very warm here the last
few days NINETY in the shadel. We
had the pleasure of crossing the Rio
Grande last Saturday and visiting the
insurreeto soldiers. We saw Madero,
Orozeo, and Villa. Edgar had his cam
era along and took pictures of the
different damps, which We will have 20
show YOU when We get home. Ii was
a sight for sore eyes. Talk about
roughing it on the frontier, if they
were not roughing il then | never saw
any roughing, Some threw their
blankets over a besh and crawled
under, others had holes dug in the
banks where they could crawl in TO
sleep. A few of the officers had tents.
In reading letters that / get from the
north, great many think they are
bands of outlaws fighting against their
country, but they are pretty well
army fighting for their
rights. The government does not treat
them right The state of Chihuahua
is i!early all owned by about a half
dozen men who lease the land to the
poorer class, and il takes nearly all
they can raise to pay the rent and
taxes, and there is but little left to
live on 'and they are starving. Nine
out of ten of the people down here are
in sympathy with them, and hope they
will win.
We visited the city of Jaurez the
other day, and saw the regular SOL
AiSAo' ihCAC 10 IullS SoHII dSI
between them and the United States
soldiers on this side. / understood
there were $50 wounded soldiers there
begging for something to eat. The
government does not even treat their
own soldiers right.
The peace commissioners meet today
10 try to arrange for peace They
meet in small grove across the river
which is only few rods across. | am
going down this afternoon with my
spyglass to get look at them. But,
enough of this. Enclosed you will find
of one the insurrecto
camps.
Hoping we will soon be back with
our Webster friends again, remain
Yours truly,

The Mans Mistake.

Out Of loyalty to his own sex the
manager Of the woman's suit depart
ment discharged his young woman
stenographer and hired a man. The
first batch of letters dictated to the
man were written to about hundred
old customers, whom he invited TO ex-
anime privately a lot Of exclusive gar
ments before they were placed on sale.
The day after the letters were mailed
the women focked into the store, but
the fire that burned in their eyes was
the fire of the avenger rather than of
the bargain hunter. One word which
each women had underlined I'm her
letter explained their wrath. The gar
ments. so the manager had meant to
say, had been designed for women Of
stock figure. such as they possessed,
but the male stenographer had drawn
on the alphabet and had written it
"stocky''
mo woman on earth would have
been guilty of such mistake"
growled the manager.
The next week the girl stenographer
had her job back.-Philadelph Led

Great Men Tall and Short,

A recent investigator has attempted
to show that Lomb-oso and his follow
ers were wrong in asserting that men
of genius were of small stature. OF
go individuals of eminence he found
that figures were obtainable for 103;
of these sixteen were of middle height,
fifty-eight above and twenty-nine be-
low.
Americans particularly combined
greatness with inches. Jefferson and
Jackson were more than six feet tall.
Sumner was six feet four inches, and
Washington. Lincoln and Beecher were
more than six feet. Among famous
foreigners Tolstoy was a large man,
and so were Thackeray. Bismarck and
Darwin.
On the contrary, many of the worlds
greatest geniuses were understood and
even deformed Napoleon, Poe. Pope,
Alexander the Great. Nelson. Blake
and Caesar were small men,
After all is said. genius Is no re-
specter of rules.-New York American.

Doino Chores.

There is no time in the year when
there is cessation from toll on a farm.
1t is different In winter: that is all.
The days are shorter. the work
rougher. OF course much depends
upon the character of the farm. Con-
siderable leisure is possible where few
cattle are kept and general trucking
done. But always there are the
chores" A remarkably elastic express
sios that-''doing chores" 1t may
mean much or little. Some dairy farm
ers. for instance, whose serious busi-
ness In life is milking cows, may pot
ter around the farm after the morn
ing's milking and. taking the mornings
milk to the creamery or railroad sta
ton, eat their noon dinners, mend some
fence, look over the harness or haul
out manure. potter around some more
and then say, "Guess it's about time
to do the chores" meaning to milk
two dozen cows or so-the real hard
work of the ay.--Philadelphia Press.

south Dakota University

A very successful year for the Uni
versity of South Dakota will soon
close. The success has been along
many lines. A large amonnt of reg
ular school work has been accom-
plished, the athletics have been sue
cessful and the legislature has been
liberal with the Institution by increas-
ing its annual income something like
ten thousand dollars.
This year has been the most remark
able in the history of the institution.
Not only is the university able to cope
successfully with the larger institutions
on the athletic field but also in debat-
ing and oratory.
Our football season has been
grand success. The university team
won from every college in the state
and held the university of Minnesota
to lower score than did any other
University except Michigan.
In debating and oratory the Uni
versity of South Dakota has shown
wonderful intellectual ability. Two
teams were organized last fall. One of
these teams met the North Dakota
University team and was defeated by
a two to one decision after a hard and
and fairly equal contest. The other
team contested for honors with the
Creighton Law School of Nebraska and
won by unanimous vote. Later il
met the University of Denver and the
University of Colorado at Boulder.
Both Of these teams were defeated by
the South Dakota team. The Univer.
sity Of Colorado had defeated the Uni
versity of Kansas and the University
Of Oklahoma only short time before
One man on the Denver team had al
experience of ten years in the pulpi
and the leader of the Colorado team
was Phi. ID. of Harvard, who L
studying law in Boulder. By defeat
ing these man who were older ant
more experienced, one can see'how tn
University of South Dakota rank
along intellectual lines. These vic
tories mean great deal to the Unive1
sity Of South Dakota and they ought I
mean q great deal to the citizens Q
the state who are supporting the uni
versity. These events show that tn
university is accomplishing something
