Work to Begin OF Trail

Washington Times: A company of
Miller gentlemen accompanying the
County Commissioners, were here
by auto one day last week looking
over the Black & Yellow Trail. They
drove several miles into Beadle
county ana were very much pleased
with the road. The plan is to grade
the road through Hand county this
year In fact the commissioners
have already passed upon it and it
is now up to the townships For
the first five miles out from Wess-
ington the trail runs on the line be.
tween Hubert and Grand townships
thence 4 miles north and one mile
west IN Grand. This gives Grand
township ten miles for which they
are wholly or in part responsible.
However they already have a couple
of miles north of VayIand that is in
good shape.

Advertising State Affairs

Iroquois Chief: A number of
South Dakota newspapers are busily
discussing the proposition of the
amount of free advertising that
comes to them from the different
state departments and state institu-
tions with a request that it be given
publicity free of charge. the news
papers to stand the expense Of put
ting it before the public. In con.
nection herewith these papers call
attention TO the fact that the law al,
lows public officials to go outside of
the state for their job printing under
the competitive bid system now in
vogue. There is something radically
wrong in the system. The news
papers pay their share of the taxes
and do much more than their share
of state building. No other class of
business is called upon to contribute
more of their wares or of their
money. but the newspapers are ex-
pected to boom their state. their
county and their towns and in add
ton to print column after column of
stuff from the state departments and
state institutions, while these officials
send the state money outside for job
printing.

Friction of misunderstanding

st. Louis Mr. Abbott Of
Chicago, in an address to the Miss
ouri Bankers Association in session
in st Louis, expressed the opinion
that the bankers of the country
should remove the mystery that has
too long enveIoped banking. He is
strong in the belief that when the
public knows the bankers as they are
and understands their purposes and
the functions they perform there
will be less hostility. No doubt Mr.
Abbott is right as to the bankers and
the same is true as to men of prac-
tically all other professions and bust
nesses. 1t is true of individuals, in
or out of business. The tact was
put into attractive form by a Miss,
ourian who devised a commercial
club slogan: Get acquainted with
your neighbor; you might like him "
Half the friction in the world comes
from misunderstanding.

Redfeld Journal: Frank Myers, a
veteran from Miller, was in attend
ance at the encampment here this
week. While the civil war was in
progress. Mr. Myers was UP in this
territory, fighting Indians and has
many narrowing tales to tell of their
ravages between the years 1866.
Because of his experience. he was
asked to relate some of his stories
to a large number of Redheld
youngsters, who gathered at the
Commercial Club rooms at 4:30
Thursday afternoon. With this
first hand information, it is safe to
say that none of the lads will forget
these tales as long AS they live.

Electric Line to Mitchell

Mitchell, MAY 22.-Direct electric
railroad connections with Mlnneapo-
lis within the next twenty months
was the forecast by Colonel T. D..
Luce, general manager of the Luce
electric system. at a mass meeting
of Mitchell citizens last evening. In
response to this promise the vote
was carried to buy $4,000 of stock
to insure Mitchelps connection with
the system.
The projected line is a continual
ton of the interurban now building
southwest of Minneapolis, through
Marshall, Mimi. to Bookings, S. d.
The necessary amount of stock has
been subscribed to extend the line
Of the system to Madison, and Nit
chell will be the next point.
1t is said construction work has al
ready been done for forty miles on
the line outside of Minneapolis. with
trains already in operation for sew
enteen miles over double tracks.
The proposition has been under con
sideration for two months. Accord
ing to Colonel Luce. the ultimate
destination of the road is the Mis-
souri, river, with a probable route
through Wheeler and Armour.
Since the agitation for a third road
into Mitchell has assumed definite
shape, there have been representa-
tives of three railroad systems in
Mitchell investigating the situation
The projected road would tap rich
country not in close touch with rail
roads at present.

A Real Snake Dancer

Madame La Albertina, sister of the famous seeress Anna Eva Fay can be seen at the Coliseum this evening for the last time in Phoenix in her won which is realistic in the extreme is conducted with eight foot sattle snakes gliding down the stage striking at the dancer. That they are actually the poisonous snakes that is claimed for them is proven by the fact that they are never dOpey as are snakes whose fangs are extracted. They whir and rattle and strike at the dancer and sometimes bite her She takes great chances when dancing with them on account of the poisonous nature of the rattler. Madame Albertina carries with her preventatives for the snake bites and has many scar on her arms and limbs where the reptiles have struck her during her dances. They are real snakes and the act is a real act. If any proof is needed visit to the Coliseum will furnish it.

 tions at the Iron Play House. MT and Mrs Fornell of Fl Paso are ex- pected to arrive in the city in a few
 days and they will be added to the company. Fornell is d producer of great ability and will be of great assistance.

What Happened to Mary is the
 added attraction to the regular pro
 gram for today and tomorrow at the
 Avenue.
 In "The Drudge, Dorothy Kelly has
 added yet another to the long lists of
 triumphs, already to the credit of the
 Vitagraph company. This offering is a
 classic of the silent dramas, the story
 is one of everyday life, the common
 place existence of many farmers wives. The pretty school teacher mar ries the wealthy farmer while piqued at her lover. She is made to pay the penalty by the simple process of fore ing her into the rut of household drudgery. Just when life is nearly un- bearable. she plans to elope with the lover of her girlhood; this step becomes | unnecessary, when the husband is killed in an accident. Andy the Actor" is another of the exploits of Andy Clark. the schoolboy star of the Edison company, and pre- vides an excellent comedy When the Cartridges Failed" is a snappy drama wherein Ben Wilson and l Gertrude Mccoy are given the leading roles.

ADJUSTMENTS
"When Stronq Wills Clash"

The two reel Pathe Play When Strong Wills Clash" which is the lead- ing offering at the Lamara again to- day as it was yesterday, is a very beautiful and dramatic story of a young artist who has Bohemian tastes and of course is living with his model, a beautiful girl. The mother visits the atelier and discovers the model there alone and finds she is not the wife of her son. When. however, the two do marry, the old lady refuses to recog- nize either of them and the son had to go to work. Formerly art with him had been a pastime As the years go by young son comes to the home and this child the grandson of the old lady is the cause of bringing all parties to- gether It is a very pretty story well photo told. A Lubin The WayWard Son" and an unbeatable Essanay com plete an interesting bill.
