Sunday Moving Pictures.

Pierre.-The first attempt to open
a Sunday evening picture show in this
city is meeting the determined oppO-
sitiOn Of the ministerial association OF
Pierre. Representatives of that body
appeared before the city commission
and demanded an ordinance which
they had prepared, prohibiting the
showing of moving pictures III Pierre
on Sunday, with or without an admis-
sion fee. There is question as to the
commission adopting their ordinance
and regardless of what action is taken
by that body. one or the other of the
opposing interests will take the ques.
ton to a vote through the initiative or
referendum as the case may be, and
the indications are for a warm contest
before ii is ended, in which it will
be definitely settled as to whether OF
not moving pictures on Sunday are
any more wicked than lantern slides
on that day.

RURAL EDUCATION
PROF. HUME TELLS EDUCATORS
OF IMPORTANCE OF THE
RURAL SCHOOLS.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
from the Capitol CITY. the Various
State institutions and From
Many Different Parts Of
the Sunshine State.

Mitchell.-"TCday is the day to &C
cord to every country child his edu-
cational chance; it is the day 20 build
fields, where they belong" This was
the keynote Of an inspiring address
by Prof. Hume, of the state college,
before the State Teachers association
DR.. Hume urged that the country boys
and girls should be given the same
educational opportunity that is given
to their city cousins.
THE farmers high school," stated
the professor, must be where the
farmers can reach t, out in the coun-
try where the farmers are. The coun-
try boy and girl must go to a high
school, where they can return every
night to where they belong, and that
is at home"
DR.. Hume expressed the idea that
only when we organize an efficient
System of educating the young people
Of the corntry-at hOme-will a true
condition of democracy exist. City
high schools are planned to train city
boys ana girls. Country boys ana
girls must have training in country
high schools to fit them for greater
country life. 'If democracy means
anything at all, it means an equal
chance for every man to do his best"
Although we have the key to the
problem Of how to get agriculture in
the schools, eve stand abashed in
South Dakota before that greater one:
How shall we get the schools into ag
culture?" A few croakers of faint
heart protest that it cannot be done.
People who want to do things, do
them, "and all that is necessary for
the establishment of adequate coun-
try schols is to have the people who
do things to want to establish them"

TO TUNNEL. UNDER CHANNEL
lon9-Deayeu France-English Project
Is Once More Being Put
Forward.

tunnel between England and
France beneath the English channel
was first proposed at the beginning
Of the nineteenth century by Matthew.
French mining engineer, says the
Argonaut. Fifty years later the
scheme was financed. but it was not
until 1867 that It seemed that the
project would be actually attempted
At that time there We're a dozen or
more plans for rail communication
between the two countries. The ac-
cepted scheme was that Of a tunnel
bored beneath the bed Of the channel.
The estimated cost of the undertake
ing was about S50000.000 Prelimi-
nary boring had been made. when the
work was interrupted by the Franco
and English governments resumed ne
gotiatiOns concerning the tunnel
leaving the matter in the hands Of 4
Joint commission Failure on the
part OF the English company holding
the contract for the work to receive
sufficient funds resulted in the fail
ure Of the enterprise in 1880. Now
the project is receiving some atten-
ton, better feeling having been es-
tablished between the people of the
two countries.

Race in Building to Wheeler.

Mitchell. The statement that has
been made concerning the strong pos
sibility of the extension of the Great
Northern railroad from Sioux Falls
to Wheeler on the Missouri river in
Charles Mix county, will without doubt
awaken another project of railroad ex-
tension which has remained dormant
for about Is years, but which has al.
ways been an ambition of another rail.
road company to build to the same
point. When the Chicago. ST Paul,
Minneapolis and Omaha railroad built
Mitchell a quarter Of century ago.
it was the understanding that the
line would eventually be completed
on to Wheeler. A succession of years
of poor crops, brought on by slight
rain. held the project in allegiance.
With the announcement coming with
more or less authority that the Great
Northern will build to Wheeler. it is
believed by the business men of this
city, men who have been in touch with
that the Omaha will step into the field
and give the Great Northern chase
down into that rich agricultural coun-
try. The Omaha people have looked
upon that country as their property
for business advancement and it is not
likely that they will permit another
road to build into it alone.

Number of Elevators Increased.

Pierre-South Dakota crops Of this
year increased the number of licenses
licenses were issued to SS8 elevators
and this year to 1,175 elevators Last
year 2S5 elevators of the S8S were
bonded for the storage of grain. anC
this year 524 Of the 1,175 were bonded
for that purpose. Such figures very

To Send Out Educational Teams.

Huron. During Christmas vacation
every college in South Dakota is go
ing to send out gospel team" com
posed of some of the best fellows in
each school to advertise and encour-
age college training throughout the
state. 1t is the purpose Of these
teams to select one town each, go
there and mix with the young people,
as we'll as older people, of the town
and show them by their demeanOr,
ideas and ability that college life is
very desirable and broadening. It is
the thought of the conference promot-
ing this venture that too often the
worthwhile fellows who leave college
become Immediately engrossed in
their individual work and outsiders
have not much chance to see the real
worth that has come to the person
while the college "rah-rah" boys who
go from their school with only the SUI
perficial absorbed, create an unfavOr-
able impI eSSion as to the merit of col
lege education for young people and
in sending out this gospel team" it
is proposed 10 help dispel the latter
thought about the institutions. Every
college in the state, and Fargo college,
of North Dakota. were represented in
a conference lately held at Huron.

Know How to Raise Corn.

Kimball-In the vicinity of Bijou
Hills, 20 miles southwest of here, a
party by the name of Jos. Nasku, off
from a field Of ten acres. raised $50
bushels of corn, an average Of 50
bushels 10 the acre. This was plowed
corn and cultivated five times. In the
same locality another farmer named
Ira Ellis had 40 acres OF listed corn
and averaged right through II bush
els to the acre. This shows what an
average farmer in Brute county can
do if he is particular with his seed
corn, plows good and deep and must
cultivate his corn thoroughly after it is
we'll put in and more so if the wealth
er continues dry. This county has
raised an enormous corn crop this
year, but the very early freeze has
made lots of coft corn, which will
have to be fed out to stock as soon as
possible.

a DOCTORS SLEEP

Many persons do not realize that a
bad stomach will cause insomnia.
Coffee and tea drinking being such
an ancient and respectable form Of

one of the principal causes OF dys-
