Withstood Serious Operations.

Joseph Peska accompanied by
his father returned from Minnea-
polls last Friday where he had
been operated twice on his brain.
The operations were very serious
and the physicians doubted very
much that the young man will
stand them. Immediately after
the operations he was unable to
see, as the optic nerve was affected
but sight gradually returned so
that now he is able to see better
than before the operation. He is
also able to walk which is quite u
contrast from his former condition
when he merely staggered and at
last many times staggered and fell
backwards, As had been stated
last week tumor the size of a
thumb had been removed from the
cerebellum Clover part of the
BRAIN. The growth has been
there for years and its presence
was made manifest by insufficient
control in locomotion.

A serious accident, which, how
ever, turned out lucky at that,
befell Robt. A.Dvoracek, a young
farmer residing southwest of town
Wednesday afternoon. Mr.. Dvo-
rack a short time ago bought a
Ford and Wednesday, together
with his wife and 2-year old child
made trip to Tabor. They left
town at about the same time the
passenger train pulled out and by
peculiar coincidence approached
the train as it was passing the eros
sing in the southwest corner of
the town. 1t seems that Mr.. Dvo-
racek at this point lost control of
the machine, and being unable to
stop it, run directly into the ex-
press coach of the moving train.
The result naturally was that his
car was thrown off the high grade
and its front part, including the
wheels, was completely demolish
ed. Very lucky indeed for them
that the car did not turn turtle,
but merely lay on the side. The
train after the collision was imme-
diately stopped and the crew as
sisted them in crawling out. A
side of few negligible scratches
none of them we're hurt. Robert
cannot explain how it happened,
but it seems that being unexperi'
enced in the subtle art of running
a car, he became confused at the
critical moment. The damage or
the car at a rough estimate is al
least 500.

The Red X Seal Commission of
South Dakota are very busy these
days. This city is headquarters
for the Commission but we are in
clined to think that not one per-
son in every hundred that Ar

Red X is very large and up to
Monday, December 9TH, not less
than 5000 letters had been mailed
from this postoffice. Every city,
town, village and hamlet in the
state, where it was possible to Sc
cure an agent, has been supplied
with seals and so insistent was the
demand for seals. from great
number of towns in the state that
permission was given them to com
mence the sale of seals in Novem-
Der. Returns are now coming in
from those towns asking for more
seals the supply given them early
in November being exhausted.
The people of the state are getting
behind the Red X movement and
doing their best to make this year
record one that all the states of
the Union will take notice of.
The campaign of publicity is not
only being pushed by agents of
the Commission but every moving
picture show in the state has been
given a slide which is thrown up
on the screen every evening. In
this way theatre goers are remin-
ded of the fact that there is a fight
in this state against the white pla-
que; for improved living, better
sanitary conditions, to combat di'
sease and otherwise improve the
condition of the people. The
work is meeting with great enthu-
siasm and support and great re-

MEETS DEATH IN FLAMES.
Lancaster Woman's Clothing Caught
Fire from Kitchen Range.

Lancaster, Jan. 21.-Mrs Robert
Treath, of the Lancaster Cotton
Mill village, was burned to death to-
day. Her clothes caught, it is pre-
sumed, while she was making FIVE in
Der range preparatory to cooking
dinner She was by herself in the
house, the other members of the
family being at work in the mill. A
neighbor happened to call by about
ll.3O O'Clock to see Mrs. Treath, and
was startled upon opening the door,
when there had been no response to
her repeated knocking, to find the
house full Of smoke and to detect
peculiar Odor as of burnt flesh.
Calling a man nearby the two en-
tered the house together, and going
into the kitchen found Mrs. Treath
lying dead upon the floor about a
foot from the stove. Her whole
body, except the feet, was so badly
burned as to make Identification al
most impossible. Every particle Of
her clothing, except her shoes and
stockings, was burned.
Besides her husband Mrs. Treath
is survived by three. children, two
sons and a daughter.
