Ship Over 400 Carloads of Stock

Belle Fourche.-To date over 400
carloads of stock have been shipped
from this point to eastern markets
this season and In an off year when
stock is not plentiful, this is consid-
cred a good record. This number will
be swelled by probably another 100
cars or better before the season closes.
The sheep industry, which is steadily
climbing in this section, is attracting
the attention of sheep men. There are
arrangements being made now for the
ranging of about 10000 head of sheep
close to here this winter. Feed con-
ditions are unusually good, as there
was an immense alfalfa crop in the
irrigated district on the Belle Fourche
project and this alfalfa can be bought
stacked in the field at 81 per ON and
furnishes the. best kind OF feed. 1t Is
expected that the sheep industry in
this section will show a much greater
growth in the next few years.

Woman's Body Exhumed.

Sioux Falls.-The children of Mrs.
Berit Boyum, who died at her home
near Baltic last December, have at
last been successful in their efforts
to have the body of their mother ex-
humed, their contention being that
she was poisoned. Their request that
her body be exhumed was complied
with by Coroner Miller, who now has
sent the contents of the stomach to a
laboratory in Chicago for examina-
ton for poison. 1t is expected it will
be about a week before a report is re-
ceived from the chemist who will
make an analysis of the contents of
the stomach of the dead woman. The
children of the dead woman came to
Sioux Falls about a week ago and de-
manded that the body be exhumed. To
satisfy them a coroner's jury was
summoned, and, after an investigation,
returned a verdict to the effect that
the woman came to her death from
natural causes. Dissatisfied with this
verdict, the children insisted on the
body being exhumed and the contents
of the stomach examined, and now the
county authorities have complied with
their demands. The contention of the
children has created a sensation
among the residents of the Baltic
neighborhood.

G.. Weare of Sioux City of the entire
property left of the western ranches

passing of one of the largest and best
known cattle outfits in this part Of
The northwest. Mr.. Weare purchased
what was left of the cattle and lands
of the company for $4,000, and his
intentions have not been made known.
The WV has been gradually closing
out for several years, owing to the
inroads Of the settlers on the once
free range where thousands of head OF
WV cattle used to roam. Most Of wis
range and the large land possessions
of the company has been divided up
into small ranches on which at the
present time two or more head of cat.
tie are now being raised where the
same amount of land formerly fed but
one, a real increase in the number OF
cattle as well as productiveness of the
land.

the aged man lives declares that Nor
ris will have resr> d his hundred and
twentieth ye" 18th of next jan
uary.
1t appears me years ago
records of his birth were destroyed by
fire and it is largely through memory
that the present facts are retained.
Morris was born in the year 1894.
at Berrey, Montgomeryshire, North
Wales. and If he lives until the 18th
of next January he will have reached
the wonderful age Of one hundred and
twenty years. 1t is not unlikely that
the c~entenarian can claim the dis
tinction of being the oldest living mar
in the United States. Considering the
great age he has reached, Morris life
has been rather u%neventful and he
had always been a hard worker up to
the time old age incapacitated him.
The old man Is a shoemaker by
trade, but at one time served as a
gamekeeper to a large estate in Eng
land. He came to America in 1871
and passed through Chicago the Sun
day after the big fire. Locating at
Blackstone, H., he quietly followed
his trade in that town for ten years.
Later on, he moved to Harrison coun-
ty, Missouri, where he lived for four
years.
He reached Custer county in 1886
and resided there since that time.

picture is an excellent likeness of the
aged shoemaker and shows him as he
is at the present time. He is able to
walk about, although considerably
hampered by a club foot, and thor.
oughly enjoys basking in the sun
light.
He talks but little at the present
time, but generally manages to make
himself understood. Tobacco Is his
constant companion and he appears
to derive much nourishments from
large quantities of coffee, which he
drinks at all hours of the day and
night.
He is unable to read or write, con-
sequently has never been able to take
notes of any interesting experiences
that may have come his way. 1t Is
hardly likely, however, that he has
had any glaring adventures, as his

looks well when it is new; and it
never will go out of fashion, because
here are no faddy notions worked

built that it will defy time and the
elements for a good many years.
L have known of many instances
where fancy fashions were carried
into house building to such an extent
that / should rather have the mate
rials that were used in building than
the house after it is finished. With
the exception of a better arrangement
of the partitions to economic room
and increase cor aort, this style of
house has been built for twenty or
thirty years, and it has always been
popular. Such houses sell readily,
especially when they are built in a
good residence section of the town.
A house as large as this, practically
IT by 40 feet, should have a lot at
least so feet wide. The appearance
of a good-sized house Is often in
jured by placing it on a narrow lot.
There is no sense in economizing at
the wrong place. A 50-foot lot may
cost one or two hundred dollars more
than a 40-foot lot; but in five years
time, II the neighborhood improves,

life, according to those who know him
best, has been a remarkably quiet
one; although it would appear that
n who has passed over such a great
number Of years and has lived In I'VE
olden times" that we read about, must
necessarily have bumped against
something during his career that was
worth chronicling.
Morris is a bachelor and a confirmed
woman hater, and right here is where
a grain Of romance inserts itself. In
his young days, it Is said, many
years before he came to this country,
he was engaged to a buxom English
girl. The wedding day had been fixed.
but before its arrival the girl sickened
and died. Morris SO cherished the
memory of his beloved that he could
never be brought to look with favor
upon any other woman.
AS the years passed, his antipathy
toward the fair sex increased until,
at the present day, with one hundred
and twenty years to his credit. he
stands forth, an openly avowed wom-
an hater. Who knows. but what this
