Ida Grove Era: Some 1900 or
1900 newspapers were started in
this country last year. and about
the same number died. 1t is not
SO easy to establish paper as it
was in the early days when
"A font or two Of type, second
hand Washington press, hand
roller and a book for subscription
Were sufficient and could be
purchased for from $3.50 to
$3.50. 1t requires money to es-
tablish paper in these days and
a lot of money to keep it going
after it is started. But the need
of the country is not more news
papers, but better ones---and the
fewer they are in number the
better they are almost certain to
be.

Coroner Dotson and Deputy
Sheriff Norman were called
from Fort Pierre to Cottonwood
Monday to investigate the death
of Wilhelm Hermann, n home
steader on claim eight miles
north Of that town. The body
VAS found Sunday afternoon by
two boys, in the cellar of his
house.
The coroner came tO the con
cl,lsion that II was Il ease of self
destruction. The odor Of some
disinfectant was to be detected
in the house, and it was thought
by some that he had taken tile
method of suffocating himself by
the fumes Of the disinfectant.
Others believe that while f,migat
ing the place. he went into the
cellar and was overcomes by the
fumes and perished.
He was last seen Friday and
It is supposed that death occurr-
I'd either Friday or Saturday.
The deceased was a brilliantly
educated man, about 35 years Of
age, and was said to be a gradu-
ate Of big German university.
He was n great reader and was
known as prof. Hermann to
all his neighbors.
Hermann had been drspon-
dent for some time and the ssui-'
eide theory was advanced by
several who knew him. AT the
time of the Titonic disaster he
is said to have expressed a wish
that he had been on the ill-fated
ship. No relatives are known to
live in this country but from
what he has said it is believed
that his folks in Germany are
Of the nobility.

ALFALFA ON EVERY Farm

Prof. Hanson, of the State Agri.
cultural college, would like to
see at least five or ten acres
of alfalfa upon every farm in
South Dakota. Alfalfa will NEAR

crop. 1t is permanent and will
yield wonderful returns il some
attention is given to the seed

necessary to get q stand Of

in getting the seed that has
been grown in the north and

that for some time past
these boys have been stealing
almost any thing which they
considered of any value and

BANKS BUY COWS

\ new department in the bank
ing business has been made by
HE First National Bank. Of Cody
Wye. which is making arrange
ments to purchase IA number Of
dairy COWS, which they will sell
to farmers of the Big Horn Bas-
in on time, charging a lower rate
Of interest than that demanded o
on other loans. The banks at PO-
well, WyO., have ordered two
ears Of high grade Holstein dairy
cows for their customers, and the
Merchants National Bank of
Billings will purchase $l1, 900
worth Of cows for their customers
The bankers of northern Wyom-
ing and southern Montana have
arrived at the conclusion that tn,
future agricultural prosperity ol
their sections must come from
dairying. In the past. the farm
ers in Wyoming have been handi
capped by lack of funds and
high rate of interest. The banks
are determined to remedy this
condition, and will make special
efforts to stimulate dairying.

20 hunt whales. On Easter Sunday,
April 16, 1876, a whaleboat from the
Catalpa, carrying Captain Anthony
and crew of six men, landed at
Rockingham and next morning had
considerable difficulty in accounting
for themselves to a customs officer.
Meantime, at Freemantle, the work
of rescue had begun. The prisoners
were allowed a great deal of liberty
and we're assigned various kinds Of
work outside the prison walls. Two
traps, made ready by Desmond and
Breslin, awaited them on the Rock
ingham road, within five minutes run
of the prison, and when the prisoners,
wearing letters, left the prison for
their assigned duties they were taken
and conducted by Breslin and Des-
mond. The race for Rockingham was
then begun and that place was nearly
reached before the police learned of
the escape and mounted their horses
in pursuit. When the police reached
Rockingham the prisoners were out at
sea In the whaleboat.
But the exciting part Of the rescue
had only begun. The whaleboat had
a difficult time in reaching the Catal-
pa, which had been out Of sight be-
low the horizon line when the smaller
boat had left Rockingham beach. A
storm struck the whaieboat and car
ried away both mast and sail, while
water poured over the stern Of the
boat, keeping several Of the men busy
battling 1t out. Night fell while the
storm still ragged ana in this plight
they remained till morning.
In the morning they vainly tried to
attract the attention Of the Catalpa,
which they could see; and to their
CONSERVATION they beheld the govern.
ment steamer Georgette steam toward
the Catalpa, which it spoke. The
Georgette made a wide circuit around
the whaleboat without seeing it and
then steamed in toward the shore

SOAP TABLETS FOR TOURISTS
New Preparation That Is Likely to
Appeal to Traveller of FastldIous
Tastes.

Somehow soap powder has never
taken the fancy Of fastidous folk.
1t is not especially pleasant to use
and 1t never smells like anything but
the Mushroom Of a railway station or
department store. 1t, moreover, has a
way Of sprinkling itself around every
where except on the hands In messy
and disagreeable way, and dainty wo-
men who travel will have none Of
1t, preferring to carry the wet cake
of personally preferred toilet soap
in rubber lined receptacle in the
travelling bag. A new soap tablet,
however, will be likely to appeal to
the fastidious traveller, because Of its
convenience and the attractive way 1t
is put up. Fifty of these tablets are
packed like bonbons in pretty little
box less than three inches square. A
pair Of nickel tweezers are tucked In
the box for extracting the tablets
again like bonbons-and the tablets
though firm in compost
ton, dissolve easily in the water. And
the entire package costs no more than
the ordinary cake of good toilet
soap.

BOY KILLED PLAYING HORSE
Hltched to Wagon, He Breaks His
Neck When Heavy Vehicle
Whlrls Down Hill.

New York.-Three accidents to chill
dren in few hours emphasized the
perils Of the streets as Fairgrounds
One child was killed and two were
seriously injured.
George Manning. FIVE years old, OF
21S5 Amsterdam avenue, managed
with several playmates to take de-
livery wagon from a lot With an
other boy he was harnessed to the
shafts with a rope, while strings
served as reins for a lad on the seat
The street was an incline and the
wagon, easily moved, became unman-
ageable. Little George was forced to
run at top speed The wagon struck
lamppost and the child was hurled
against the curb. His neck was brok-
en-. He died a half hour later.
Ellis Silverstein left an auto truck
at 1O2d street and Lexington avenue.
A boy fooled with the levers until he
started it.
The truck zigzagged through the
street, ran over Benjamin Glaser,
eight years old, and crashed into
tenement house. William Bard, five
years old, was knocked down and seri-
ously injured In front of his home by
a wagon.
