TEAMS HAVE BAD LUCK

Our football teams were both badly
defeated on Saturday, the college los
ing to Carleton at Mortified by a
score of 81 to 0, and the high school
being defeated by Aberdeen at Aber-
deem by a score Of % to 0.
The college boys played their first
game of the season and the result
of the game is not TO be wondered az
when the facts are known. The squad
this year contains but two veterans,
the balance being green and mex
p~erienced men, and it will take two or
three games to weld them into any
kind of a team. Coach Ewing is work
ing under great difficulties in turning
out a winning team, but there is no
question as to his ability and he will
deliver the goods if accorded the
proper support by the students.
The high school team ran into a
snag at Aberdeen and the result was
unlocked for. Coach Patty was not
able to put his strongest team in the
field on account of injuries, but Aber.
deem was not expected to be quite SO
formidable.

The period from 1891. to the date of
her marriage in 1872, was primitive
even for New York. 1t was the time Of
the OK team and stage coach.
The time when the women of the
household spun the wool and fax,
the cloth, and fashioned gar

In 1857 the family emigrated to the
territory of Minnesota and settled in
Olmstead county, near Rochester. At
that time this section of Minnesota
was the remote frontier-the very
edge Of settlement and civilization.
During the residence in Minnesota
occurred the civil war, and the terrible
Sioux Indian uprising.
The scene of the war We're remote

massacre nearby-so near in fact, that
the people of that region lived in ter

dangers and hardships of those trying
times, the family again moved west

SCHOOL FUND N
FINE CONDITION
STATE OF SOUTH DAKOTA HAS
MILLIONS IN ITS SCHOOL
FUND NOW.
MORE WILL Be COMING IN LATER ON
Fund viii Grow Gradually, as Lands
Increase in VaIue-Will Help to
Reduce Local Taxation.

Over ten million dollars Of school
money loaned in the state, is the re-
serve for educational purposes con
trolled by the state land department
in the showing to be made by Commits
sioner Brinker in his forthcoming re-
port, says a Pierre dispatch. OF this
more than nine million is for the bene-
fit of the common schools, and the bal
ance for the different educational in
situations of the state. The amount
Of money sent to the counties for the
benefit of the common schools for the
fiscal year ending June 80, last was
$7S0,705 3S, or at the rate OF $4.4S for
each school child in the state, which
fund helped reduce local taxation in
Just that amount, this being $l7S,-
SOFAS greater than the mount of in
come from the fund which was appor-
toned the previous year. This fund
about four hundred thousand acres OF
the many million acres owned by the
state, and when all the lands are sold,
the fund on which the schools will re
ceive an income will be many times
ten million dollars.
Under enactments of the last legis-
lative session. through which all lands
of the state for lease, whether for agri-
cultural Or grazing purposes, must
lease at a percentage of appraised
price, there has been a decided in
crease in returns from leases owe
those of previous years, the receipts
from that source for the year being
$329,371.9 90. more than fifty thousand
dollars increase over the returns Of
the previous year under the arbitrary
lease rates fixed by the state board.
The leasing for agricultural purposes
did not come up to the forecasts of
the promoters of that plan, only a little
over seven thousand acres being leas-
ed with a return Of about eighteen
thousand dollars. In this line Com
missioner Brinker in his report recon-
mends the submission Of a consititu-
tional amendment allowing leases of
state lands for terms of twenty years
or more, which would be an induce
ment for rentals at a higher rate than
for the short term leases which can be
made under present constitutional pro-
visions.
The matter Of indemnity selections
where Indian allottees have taken the
state sections is discussed, and Com
missioner Brinker states it as his
opinion that the interests of the state
and people generally would be best
guarded by allowing indemnity selec-
tons in large compact bodies rather
than by scattering them as there is
little left to select from save rough
grazing lands.
The commissioner expresses a hope
that the forthcoming legislative SEES
sion will make ample provisions 10
meet the needs Of the state forestry
department which has come with the
exchange Of scattered tracts for a com
pact body Of timber land in the name
of the state in the Black HIS. The
tract secured contains a large amount
Of matured timber, and its sale under
proper regulations will more than paw
the expenses Of maintenance of the
state forests.

district of the Kanawha Coal field,
where 1900 state guardsmen are main
tanning martial law, came with dawn
today when the stables of the Ohley
Coal Company at Ohley were destroy

the tfpple of the same company. The
soldiers drove off the men and it is
believed some were wounded.
The company's property is in a lone
~ part Of the district. Striking miners
IN that immediate vicinity have been
quiet and no trouble was anticipated.
Soon after o'clock this morning, a
picket saw a sheet of flame leap from
the stables. He called the guard
The men fought the flames for half an
hour, but the building had been fired
at so many points 1t was impossible
to save it or it's contents.
While the soldiers were fighting the
fire at the stables, half a dozen men
crept along the railroad tracks in the
shadow Of cut and poured oil on the
company's tipple. They applied a
torch and scampered for cover. A SEN
try fired at their retreating forms. The
alarm thus spread brought other SOL
diers.
Although the woods in the vicinity
were searched and many shots were
fired, 1t is not definitely known today
that any one was hurt.
Flames at the tipple soon were ex-
tinguished.
In the Paint Creek district, a party
of men last night left letters at the
offices Of the Mucklow Coal Company
and in the houses of number Of en-
ployes notifying them that If the mine
was started or if the men attempted
to go to work, the buildings would be
dynamited and the workings blown UP.
No effort had been made to start the
mine.
