The Indian. Cemetery.

Near the church there is new
cemetery and there are many graves
there. Among the graves is pitiful
array of babies. Many little ones have
died the past winter with whooping
cough. The graves are nearly all bare,
the grass being torn away. | do not
know why they keep them SO. Nearly
every grave had pure white stones on
them in various designs, usually the
cross. The stones must have been
ibrough from the creeks, There were
no evidences of flowers Or flower beds
except faded bunch of. cloth roses on
one mound. Several evergreens have
been planted and cedsrs are thriving
fairly we'll. There were several mark
ers in the cemetery, the names and
dates being in English and the scrip.
ture verse in Indian. The mounds
run east and west and some of them
were from nine TO twelve feet long.
One thing which rather amuzed me
was that for the old people the markers
were like those we use for children,
with lambs on them. Some Of the
names were as follows: -

pounds in weight. The state which is
to receive the elk is required to pay
all expenses of capture and shipment.
All the elk in the Yellowstone region
are fat and in prime condition this
year. They look much better than
last year, and consequently are in
first-class condition for shipping. The
railroad journey Is hard on them.
Once on their new range, they will be-
come used to changed conditions in a
short time, and they ought to do well
in their new homes"

down fences and demolished the hay
stacks of the ranchers. They ate the
willows along the streams, and grad
ually grew weaker and weaker, and
finally sank down to die in the snow
Immediately they were bounced upon
by magpies and other birds, and their
eyes were picked out, in many cases
before the elk were dead.
In all, the government has appro-
priated close to $780, 900 for elk pro-
lection. The appropriation is general
ly approved, as it will result in re-
plenishing the depleted elk ranges of
many states, and will give the fast
disappearing elk of this country a new
lease of life.

Bio Dakota "Spouter."

Sioux Falls.-Traveling men return
ing from the western part of the state
report that scores of people continue
to daily inspect the mammoth hot wa
ter artesian spouter which recently
was completed at Edgemont by the
city authorities Of hat place. With
a water temperature of 126 degrees,
the well is beyond question one of the
artesian wonders of the country.
When a depth Of 1000 feet and
more had been reached in the well
the magnetism of the tools became
quite noticeable and the attraction be-
tween the casing and the cable attach
ed to the drill caused a wear of the ca
BILE so serious as to make it necessary
to apply protective devices to the
cable. At 1000 feet the magnetism
was sufficient to support a 2A-pound
bar by the end of the drill. This phe-
nomenon did not become apparent I'M
til drilling in the sandstone COM
menced, and then increased with each
stratum of hat rock encountered. .
Some interesting comparisons have
been made of what the flow of SIS
gallons per minute from this gigantic
spouter means. This is a flow of a.
500 gallons per hour and S28, 900 gal
Ions each "a hours.

QUEER VERDlCTS IN FRANCE
Aesthetic Crime Not Punished, but II
Work Is Clumsy Courts Are
Severe.

A French humorous paper has been
at pains to compile two parallel col
umns OF verdicts rendered in the
courts of France. And very funny
reading they make, too. AS a guide to
would-be criminals, the list should be
invaluable. Do you wish to love? Do
so with all lightness of heart. Joseph
Frechet did it, and left the court with
u a stain on his character, though
rather a big one on his knife. But a
motor a tire is sacrosanct, as Nine.
Maret-Turel discovered to her cost.
Stick a knife into that-and who has
not felt the temptation at one time or
other-and it will mean four months
hard labor. At least, that Is what 1t
meant for madam. If our sense of
humor is highly developed you have
quite a number of ways in which you
can give 1t harmless vent-harmless,
that is. for yourself. Take the case
Of the grocer's apprentice who made a
jolly bonfire In his masters shop. 1t
prentice had his fun for nothing.
There was the asylum nurse who put
the refractory patient in a bath Of
boiling water and kept her there till
parboiled. We really think that was
carrying the joke a little too far, but
the jury, no doubt, considered that the
bounds Of legitimate humor had not
been passed, for they brought in a
verdict Of acquittal. Husband-killing
is no murder, as you well know. Only
the wife must shoot straight. The
jury does not like a botched job. Thus.
Nine. B%ourdillon, who could do no bet
ter with a six~chambered revolver
than shoot her husband in one of his
big toes, got six .maDths for her bad
craftsmanship. So did Nine. Sarrasin,
and lucky to get of SO lightly, for she
missed her lover altogether. Again,
there vas Leon D~ouvelle, who tried to
bite OF his wife's nosu. He was con-
demned to eighteen months for this
vulgarity. Another man who had the
decency to use a razor for the same
genial purpose was, Of course. ac-
quilted. And the moral Of it all is that

their fortunes with the drys.
Not a town in the Black Hills coun-

majorities were cast in favor of sa-
looms. Mitchell, Huron, Pierre, Fort
Pierre, Aberdeen, Yankton and this
place are among the larger cities to
vote license.

towns did not change from last year.

With four candidates in the field
for finance commissioner here, John
Mundt was elected by a majority over
ali of his competitors of 400 votes.
The personal popularity of the winner,
together with the light vote cast,
which ran slightly under $500, are be-
lieveG to account for his overwGelm-

License, which was the only other
question in the municipal election, car
