destroyed by fire. after temporary ten
ancy OF another playhouse, Hsrrigan
and Hart moved into what Is now the
Herald Square Theatre. Here new
local play was produced each year. and
all scored. Pete" "Old Lavender"
"Mcsorley's Initiation" and Cordelia's 5
Aspirations" were some OF the most
popular.
Harrigan and Hart became one or New
York's institutions, and II was indeed a
remarkable organization that they had.
Dave Braham. Harrigan's brother-in-
law, was a host in himself. He wrote
the music. New York never had such a
galaxy OF funmakers. Dear old Annie
Yeamans. her daughters Jenny and
Emily. John Wild. Dan Collyer. Quilter
and Goodrich and Ed Sparks are the
easiest recalled. But It was the en-
sembles In the Hsrrigan productions
chat won the most praise. Even the
"supers" were picked, and as a body
they could be compared favorably with
the Saxe-Meiningen players.
After Tony Hart left Harrigan things
began to so wrong, though financial
prosperity continued for several years
more, Harr!gan erected the present
Garrick Theatre. still owned by Mrs.
lIarrigan. There he produced Reilly
and the Four Hundred" perhaps his
greatest success. In the mean time
Tony Hart was going 1t alone" de-
spite desperate efforts to bring the two
public favorites together again. The
popularity Of these players was without
parallel In the history OF the stage.
Harrigan gave me this recipe for hi,
many successes: "A little comedy q
bit Of pathos. . song or two and truth
i1ui portrayals Of distinct typss."

Given Prison Term.

Sioux Falls.-The latest prisoner to
De lodged in the Sioux Falls peniten-
tlary is a young men named Louie
Holm, whose present predicament is
due to a plunge which he took a few
weeks ago into high finance, He ap-
peared before Judge Smith, of the
state circuit court, and entered a plea
of guilty to the charge against him,
and was sentenced to a term of one
year and nine months in the peniten-
tiary. Hohn's offense consisted of
selling 1000 bushels of mythical wheat
to a buyer at Emery, S. D., who paid
him the sum Of $3.50 advance money
for wheat which the young man, it
afterward developed, did not own. The
Emery grain buyer recovered practi-
cally all of the $3.50, but another grain
buyer at Ethan, upon whom Holm is
alleged to have worked the same
scheme, and who paid Holm about
5000, never recovered any of his
money.

q prominent farmer of this county,

Applies for Pardon.

Aberdeen.-Byron McVeigh, a Unit
ed States deputy marshal here, Is in
receipt Of a unique and unusual COM
munication from a federal prisoner
who was sent up from Aberdeen two
years ago, after being convicted Of
tampering with the United States
mails. The prisoner asks the good
offices of the deputy marshal in aid
ing him to secure his release from
prison before his term expires, and
bases his request upon somewhat
lronical grounds. He claims he has
become convinced, from hearing the
other prisoners confined at Leaven-
worth discuss their cases, that they
are all, every one, innocent men,
wrongfully convicted, and not crimi-
nails. Now, the prisoner tells the Of
Ulcers, he has been associated with
the criminal class all his life, and he
fears his presence among men who
are as innocent Of wrong-doing as his
fellow prisoners claim to be will have
an Injurious and communicating effect
upon them. Therefore, for the sake
of those innocent men he begs the
deputy marshal to aid in securing his
release.

South Dakota Banks.

Mitchell. - State Bank Examiner
Wfngfield has just issued an elaborate
statement of the financial condition
of the state banks, private banks, trust
companies and the national banks Of
the state, which is the first n Of the
kind ever issued by the department.
While there is a decrease of s., 000, 900

cut in expense, which occurred short
ly after the December call, and which
affected the call on February 20, from
which the report is made. The gener-

improvements, and many of them bor-
rowed money to avoid the liquidation
OF loans which are maturing, and not
force the payments of loans when
property would have to be sacrificed
on a forced sale. The reduction of de-
posits is due to the settlements that
were made on real estate sales and the
paying of interest. The state banks
show a decrease in loans and dis
counts of s691, 796, and likewise a de-
crease of $1,141, 53S in expenses. The
surplus shows an increase of S12S.5S0,
while the undivided profits decrease
S ,745,640. The check deposits and
savings deposits for December 5 were
S19, 7S3,404, and February 90 they
were $19,354,705, making a decrease
of S42S,699. There is a decrease of
S65,S36 due to other banks. The ma
tional banks show deposits Of 0,270,-

100000. The amount due other banks
shows a decrease of $359,918.

and probably a reader of wild West"
stories. He was walking the streets

unciyilized west, when a man clad in
a dark blue suit with brass buttons
at intervals over his clothing, took
the young fellow for a walk, bringing
up at the station house. Search of his
person developed a long knife, mar
row-bladed and double-edged; a great
package OF tobacco, and other things
necessary to supply the needs of a
hunter on the prairies far from the

red man prowled, seeking for the scalp
Of the encroaching white man. He
told the Judge that he had the knife
