THE MAN IN A PINK SHIRT
Plays stir Game Of Poker, Hunts
Good Deal and ls Familiar
Figure at Ball Game.

The telegraphic story of the events
which threw the fat into the fire in
Mexico and started the war over
again, mentions man in pink shirt
as the one who led the attack on
Juarez. Having touched the spark
to the powder magazine just as the
belligerents were shaking hands for
peace and reformation, the man In the
pink shirt passes out Of the tele-
graphic narrative and out of the his
tory Of Mexico a6ma
Unless this man In the pink shirt
Is an exception. those who live In a
country town know him we'll. The
pink shirt itself was bought at a
racket store for 60 cents. The man
plays stiff poker game, hunts good
deal without reference to the game
laws, and is familiar figure at ball
games, country fairs and foot races
where betting Ia tolerated.
Wagering money on the outcome of
ball game is too slow for him. He
bets on whether the next throw of the
pitcher will be a. ball or q strike I;
whether the batter misses or breaks
his bat; whether the catcher running
for foul gets or is cut on the barbed
wire fence.
1t is disturbing to know that man
In pink shirt could overrule the gen.
eral of an army and scatter death and
destruction as at Juarez; doubly dis
turbing to believe that he could
change the destinies of nation.

BIT or A SCOTCH PUZZLE
llceman on Sunday Leaves
Question Unsettled.

When is a policeman not police
man? This Is question that has Sc
riously agitated the Scotch players
appearing In "Bunty" at the Comedy
theater, New York, since they re-
ceived letter from a distinguished
resident Scotchman. In the letter he
objected to the use of the word "po-
liceman" in "Bunty," and suggested
that "bailiff" or sheriff" be used in
stead. Policemen" he insisted,
would never be heard in Scotland.
Scotch policemen, in certain COM
munities, do not work on the Sabbath
There is no such thing as Sunday
policeman in Scotland. but upon any
extraordinary occasion, the Scotch
players contend, any self-respecting
policeman, II called upon, would do
his duty.
Will Jaxone. who plays the part Of
the policeman, insists that, although
he has had no personal experience
with Scotch policemen. he has had a
social acquaintance with many Of
them, and that the word policeman"
is the only description of these men
he has ever heard. Also Graham
Moffat, the author, has also used the
word policeman" in the actors lines.
when we were boys we all had a
good deal to do with a policeman

ager.
However, the point made by the
writer of the letter Is not settled, be-
cause q Scotch policeman is not a pc.
liceman on Sunday.

A POSSIBILITY
What Might Occur in Case OF
Death of Vice President
Sherman

Washington, Oct, 30. Widespread
discussion has been caused here about
the political effect of the death of
Vice President Sherman, whose ill
ness is extremely grave, No end Of
possibilities lie in the death of the vice
president; one of these is that it
might lead to e1evating Senator Cum
Minis, La Toilette, Borah or one of
the progressive republican senators to
the presidency. Should the election
go to the House and she House dead
lock, as many believe it would. then
the question of electing a vice president
in the senate would be all important.
But two names can be voted for in
tho Senate. If the republicans did
not unite on some man, the democrats
would certainly elect Marshall. About
the only way for the republicans to
unite would be to agree to support
some progressive senator like Cummins,
Borah or La Toilette. Previous to this
the man on whom the republican sens-
tors could agree would have to be voted
for as vice president in the electoral
college.

Bookings, Oct. 80. -Brookings is

under the patronage of Dakota Confer
erce. this having been decided upon at
the recent session of the Conference ut
Yankton Efforts have been made for
several years to locate the Methodist
hospital, but it has been adjourned
over from time to time waiting for
some of the other towns to get in readi-
ness to make a proposition for the insti-
tuition. 1t was Tot expected that the
matter would be settled at this time,
but the Brookings forces went to wol K
and brought it before the conference,
and although five other towns were
ambitious for the hospital it was To-
Gated at Brookings. A local hospital
at this place has been in operation for
some time, and that was made a part
of the proposition to the conference,
and in addition a goodly sun of money
was offered as a bonus for the institu-
tion. Committees have been appoint
ed to take up the work of remodeling
the hospital building which will be
ready by December 1, for the reception
of patients. Miss Eleanor Moors of
Chicago, will be in charge as supeyin-

STATE ENGINEER
Files His Annual Report of the
Affairs of His Office

Pierre, Oct. 30.-The state engineer
has filed his fourth biennial report
with the governor, touching in it at
length the subjects of damage. irriga-
ton and good roads. Much progress
has been made in the latter during the
two year period, but drainage has been
practically at a s~tandstill.
The Belle Fourche government pro
ject is 81 per cent complete, with
80, 100 acres ~irrigable; and a good
supply of water is in the reservoir and
available for all. The chief growth
has been in private propositions, of
which BID small reservoir plants have
been reported. with a total of perhaps
500. They embrace t01 .GS5 acres. An
entirely new idea has been the pump
ing irrigation plants, of which there
are 70 on the minor streams and 6 TAX
ing water from the Missouri, with an
i~rrigable area of II, 056. The main de-
velopment is expected to be along this
line.
There are about So, 900 section line
roads in the state, and the engineer
urges their Development, especially
along the principal trunk lines. Re-
commendation is made for s~tricter
legislation regulating dams and res
ervoiis. The suggestion is made that
the duties of the department be de-
fined by code, embodying in one act
all necessary requirements and limita-
tions, A sufficient appropriation to
permit the resuming Of the work of
the photographic survey is urged,
several large irrigation projects in the
west part of the state hanging fire on
account of lack of definite data. Fur
ther money is asked for to enable
the state to co oerate with the gov
eminent in making a Topographic sur
vey of the state, each to pay half.
