Welded In Jail.

Mitchell.-The third marriage or
Mrs. Eliza Arnold of Lake Andes took
place at Platte, when she travelled to
that place because her intended was
behind prison bars and could not go
to her. Mrs. Arnold, who is of Indian
parentage, was married to Robert
Spotted Eagle, the ceremony being
performed by Judge Boyce. Spotted
Eagle reached his hand through the
bars and clasped the hand of his bride,
and the bars were just thin enough
so that he could seal the marriage
with a kiss. Spotted Eagle, who was
recently divorced from his wife in
Gregory county, is waiting for the Feb
ruary term of court to be tried on
the charge of obtaining money under
false pretenses. He recently made
his escape from Jail, and but for the
intensely cold weather would have
made his escape.

Sturois Bank to Resume.

Sturgis.-The Meade County bank
OF Sturgis, S. D., which is under tenn
pory suspension Of payment on ac-
count of the reserve being below the
legal requirements, expects to resume
business in much less time than the
law allows, despite the ~unfavorable
local conditions as to collections. The
public examiner finds nothing to criti-
Cize as to the active officers of the
bank. While a national bank is re-
quired to keep Is per cent of its de-
pOsits on hand in cash, a state bank
under the law is required to have 20
per cent of its deposits on hand in
cash, and when the reserve falls below
the required amount it is the duty of
the pY0iic examiner to require the
Bank to suspend until the required re-
serve is restored. The process CT re-
storing this reserve is going on as
rapidly as local conditions will admit,
and the bank will resume business,
without a doubt, under some arrange
ment in the near future. The bank
has been one of the. foremost and most
popular luSIlIullOHo III IL "OotSih
part of the state and has been first

commenced business January Is, 1897,
with a capital of 100000, and out of
the earnings raised the capitalization
to $50, 900 and paid SCI 900 in divi-
dends and has undivided profits and
surplus, including uncollected inter-
est, of something like 100000 at this
time.
The cause for suspension was ina
bility to collect from borrowers on ac-
count of failure of crops for W
years, causing a steady outflow of
: money for supplies Of all kinds, cou
pied with the absence of troops from
Fort Meade during the Mexican trou-
BILE last year. There is remarkable
and very general loyalty to the insti-
tuition among it's depositors and the
general public.

which he was hauling ice from the
river was struck by the locomotive OF
the incoming Northwestern passenger
train from the south. The wagon was
entirely demolished, and both of the
horses were thrown some distance,
one being badly injured. Shaul was,
fortunately for him, walking beside
the wagon instead Of riding, and man
aged to get entirely clear of the smash
up. The snow plow on the engine

carried it away. Shaul escaped with.

at the expense Of the American gov

Despite the hardships, Lieutenant
Lynch was fairly successful In taking
measurements as we'll as soundings
of different parts Of the lake. Accord
ing to the lieutenant's narrative, the
lake measures some 46 miles from
north to south and from 6 to II miles
east and west. It's total surface area

1900 feet at it's northern end, and its
shallowest part being at its southern

Centerville.-The little town OF Da-

place. Miss Meyer, about 1Ss years OF
age, gave birth January 3 last to a
child in the hospital in Sioux Fails

lived only a few days. The young

Mr.. Meyer has for a time been

Meyer came to this country fifteen
years ago, leaving his wife and a little
daughter of 3 years, the victim in the
case. They came here only three
years ago, and the daughter seems

that congress provide additional facili-

United States paper currency for new.
Asserting that there is a widespread
interest which advocates a cleaner

that the sentiment is a laudable one
and should be attainable because the
expense Is but a trife compared with
the beneficial results. 1t has been
demonstrated that bacteria attach
themselves readily to paper money.
