WRECK CAUSES DEEP
SORROW IN MOBRIDGE
UntimeIy Death of Mrs. Richards
and Daughter Casts Gloom
Over the City.

This city was enveloped in a
cloud of profound sorrow Monday
morning, when the sad intelligence
was passed from ear to ear that
Mrs. j. f. Richards and daughter
Elizabeth had met instant death in
the terrible wreck of the Colum-
bian at Odessa, Mlnn., at 4;45
that morning While particulars
of the sad event are almost entire
ly lacking, as near as they can
be obtained, the facts are about
as follows: Mrs. Richards and
daughter left for the east on the
ill-fated Columbian last Sunday
night, having engaged berths in
the standard sleeper, in which
coach the fatalities all occurred
They were asleep in their berths
at the time the crash came, and
MIS-. Richards probably never
realized what had happened. How
ever, it is reported that Miss
Richards lived FIVE or ten minutes
after the accident, but was so SER
iously injured that she did not
fully realize her surroundings or
the extent of the tragedy. To some
trainman or passenger she said
her mother was in the wreck and
asked him if he would assist in
getting her out of the debris. 9th
er than these words she said moth
ing and passed away few mo-
ments afterwards.

$1,000 Fire in Dupree

At a session of the Circuit Court
yesterday morning, after announc-
ing sentence upon the fifth defen-
dant who had pleaded guilty to the
charge of gambling, or kindred Of
fenses, Judge Carpenter took oc-
casion to remark that the fine of
800 each imposed was considered
by the court as lenient. He made
it clear to the gambling fraternity
however, that he was not in sym.
pathy with the objects of their vo-
cation and that the maximum pun
ishment would be meted out to the
offender of this class in the future.
Later in the day, apparently to
further emphasize his remarks,
Judge Carpenter ordered that all
the gambling apparatus which had
been seized by the county author
tiles in Dupree during the raids
last spring be effectively destroyed.

girls who were ten years Of age or
under were given presents at the
Goodman Land office, and they
were told that one year from that
date, if they remembered certain
password, that on the following

to try and collect the prize. The
words were such as follows: Hi

From the Bottom of the Sea.

This is not only the greatest
| feature the Imp company ever
made but one Of the most magniti-
cent triumphs any film manufac-
turer ever scored European or
American. 1t is educational; it is
completely novel; but more than
that, it is undescribally thrilling
from start to finish.
Through the courtesy and CO.
operation of the United States gov
ernment the Imp" company has
t een enabled to complete this won
derful 2,000-foOt sub marine pie
ture which will be a tremendous
up-lift for every exhibitor.
Without the active cooperation
Of the United States government,
such a picture would have been
impossible to produce. Uncle Sam
loaned one of his torpedo sub
marine boats and its crew, and let
the stage director have full sway
in the evClutions of the boat.
This in itself was a wonderful
thing for the Imp company and
the exhibitor.
The photography is perfect; the
story is great; the acting, staging
and all other points are beyond
criticism, When you see the
United States sailors and officers
gasping for breath in the sub
marine boat which has been sunk
through treachery; when you see
one of the Imp" actors (imper-
a United States naval Of
fcer) shot through torpedo tube
that he may send for rescue;
when you see the rescuing party
pumping air into the boat at the
bottom of the sea when you see
these and other features of the
thrilling plot, you will 60 wild
with enthusiasm. You will say
the Imp company has fairly
crashed and smashed it's way to a
mighty triumph Of photography,
acting and staging. AT the Mas

gence Mr.. Richards began to make
arrangements TO leave for the scene
Of the tragedy Immediately by Spe-
cial train, but he was SO shocked
and prostrated with g'ief that he
could rot get his affairs in shape
to 90 until the arrival Of No. lG,
the Olympian, and he left for
Odessa on that train to take chatge
of the remains Of his wife and
daughter.
In the sal and sudden death Of
Mrs. Richards and daughter, Mo-
bridge ha. sustained an irreparable
loss, and as the word was passed
from one to another among the
people Of the city many tears came
10 their eyes ami many EXPRESSIONS
of sorrow and sympathy came from
the lips OF the friends and acquain.
tlnces Of this estimable family
While death under any and all
circumstances is sad indeed, in this
instance it seems doubly 50. Mr..
and Mrs. Richards and daughter
were indeed a happy family; they
bad a nice pleasant home in this
city and the happieSt hours Of
Their lives were spent in the enjoy
ment of each others companion-
ship, they all being particularly
devoted to one another, Only "a
few short hours before the taking
away OF the wife and daughter the
three members of this jovial family
were happily grouped in the sacred
precincts of their p easant home,
being entirely unaware Of the fact
that it was the final family gather
ing and that before the dawn of
the morrow the beloved wife and
would be claimed by Him
who doeth all things we'll.
Mrs. Richards and daughter
were prominent workers in the So
cial and church circles Of the city.
They were ever ready and willing
to lend a helping hand in every
thing for the advancement, educa-
ton and uplifting of mankind.
Only Sunday evening just before
on her final earthly jour
ney, Miss Richards took the initia-
tive in the organization Of the
Christian Endeavor society at the |
congregational church, being the
:hoice Of the members for vice
president of the society, and it |
seems that this last act was in
keeping with her daily mode of
life.
While the heartfelt sympathy of
everyone in Mobridge is extended |

bereavement which could befall
him, few realize the extent of his
sorrow and lonliness Of heart, and
the feeble words Of earthly Ian
guage are inadequate to express
the great sorrow which has been
inflicted upon Tim. In an instant
he was deprived of the companion
ship Of those who were the dearest
to him on this earth and had been
a great comfort to him for many
years, and the environments and
comforts of "A happy home were
taken away from him In the
Ionliness of years to come Mr..

There is another class OF lots found in
suburban or fine residence districts whose

which slopes forward to the street the
lot which has a pronounced slope from
one side to the other. the lot which slopes
downward from the street and the com
paratiyely level lot at the top of a hill,
commanding a beautiful outlook over the
city or surrounding country. The hardest
lot to design a house for of these four
situations is the lot which slopes down

often give up in despair when trying to
design home appropriate for this diff
