Around the French chateau were a

This chateau, according to the cor

nearest army, so that the emperor

Sioux City. Oct. S.-An all sum

Miss Ravens was found at a cafe in

STATE NEWS

Mitchell-One of the largest sums
aver paid into the Dawson county
treasury as inheritance tax will be
that from the estate of John w. Gill
fillan, who died last June. The tax
amounts to 1851. Papers in connec-
ton with the payment of the tax
were filed here Tuesday. Only $4,000
in exemptions was allowed on the es-
tate, a sum unusually small. Joseph
Gilhllan, father of the deceased, is
the sole beneficiary of the estate.
Deadwood-Two more serious auto
accidents were added to the list of
tragedies that have occurred in this
section the past two weeks. w. S.
Perkins, an old time resident and
business man of this city, went over
an embankment in his car at Elemer
into the creek and met instant death.
He was about SO years old and leaves
a family.
washington Springs-The city au-
thorities have purchased a tract of
about ten acres of land, which will be
fitted up for city park and baseball
purposes. An engineer and surveyor
will be engaged to survey and plat
the grounds. A lake will be con-
structed on the tract. 1T Is hoped to
make the park one of the finest in
central South Dakota.
Clear Lake-John Dahl, a we'll
known farmer, was thrown from his
wagon during a runaway, and he
struck the ground in such a way that
N OF his ankles was dislocated and
the leg bone slipped from the ankle
joint and protruded from the skin
and penetrated the ground for a short
distance. 1t lis hoped to save the in
jured limb. The accident is one of
the most peculiar that ever happened
in this vicinity.
Timber Lake-Thirty-eight fine fat
steers, the property OF the DE- ranch,
are now being boarded at the expense
of Dewey county, Sheriff Maupin be-
ing in charge. The DE- ranch is one
of the large cattle companies operat-
ing in this section of South Dakota
that have failed to pay their share of
Dewey county taxes after Dewey
county vas set off from Butte county,
and when the report was circulated
that the company was preparing to
abandon its Dewey county ranges, the
county authorities took steps to col
lect the taxes and seized the thirty
eight head of steers.
Deadwood-Work on the recent
strike made by the Mcpherson broth
ers, two miles west of Deadwood is
progressing with favorable results.
The shaft is now down eighteen feet
and the ore continues to hold out
both as to value and quantity. The
excitement is spreading through the
district and several other nearby
properties are witnessing activity, the
first in a number of years. Work is
proceeding on the Hebron and Gold
berg properties and also on the Ire
Der ground. The ore in these diff
ferent places has been sample, but
the assay returns have not been made
public. It appears, however, that
they are probably satisfactory, as
there seems to be no cessation of
work.

IT appears to the PRESS th It the
buy at home policy of Hamiltonians
is a farce. Very little considera-
ton is given our home people by
some of our citizens who have
the power to let contracts and pnr-
chase goods. Our attention has
been called to a recent purchase
made for twenty tents for the Boy
Scouts at the Y. M. {. A. We
are told that these tents were pur.
chased in Toledo. Now if this is
a fact, it is not giving our home
merchants a square deal. Tents
can be bought in Hamilton and
they are just as good and cheap as
any tents on the market, but the
contract was handed TO Toledo
firm. Now this is not right. How
can the committee having the pur-
chasing power of the new Y. M. G.
A. building in charge conscien-
tiously hand this contract to firm
that did not contribute one measly
copper towards the new building
Our merchants contributed real
money towards that building and
some of them who could hardly af,
ford to contribute came across like
gentlemen. And now to hear that
the purchases are being made in
Toledo does not speak we'll for the
parties allowing those contracts.
We say let those contracts to Ham
ilton merchants at all times, or
quit at once asking for donations.

The Innocent ignorance Of much en-

matters is illustrated by an amusing
anecdote OF Geoffroy Saint Hilaire the

he did not allow the affairs OF his
household to disturb him. and Nine.
Saint-Hilaire was careful to guard him
against all worry of domestic matters.
In his laboratory he was accustomed,
being naturalist, to have various
strange animals, after the fashion Of
Rossetti. OF these a monkey was his
favorite. His wife possessed neck
lace of diamonds. of which she was
naturally proud. One day this neck
lace was missing Madame was In de-
spair and had the house searched, with
the exception of Saint-Hilaire's room.
She knew his dislike of being dis
turbed, and moreover she had not en-
tered this room for long time. SO that
she could not have left the diamonds
there.

The most direct result of prohi-

PROHIBITION A
Menace 10 the
Workers..

A favorite statement of the pro-
hioitionists is that the use of alco
holic drink is the chief cause of
crime.
Is this true
Who are the people that FIJI our
prisons? With an occasional ex-
ceptiol they come from among the
poor. Yet the poor use less alco-
holic drink than the rich, for the
simple reason, if for no other, that
they cannot afford as much. If it
was drink hat caused crime there
would be proportionately more rich
people than poor in prison.
1t has been shown that crime
multiplies as times are hard, and
diminishes as economic conditions
improve. At the same time Stats
tics show that the consumption of
alcoholic drink diminishes as times
are hard, and incre ases as economic
conditions improve. In fact, the
beer consumption in the United
States constitutes the most delicate
barometer of industrial conditions,
falling off in times of money strln-
gency and slack work, while in
creasiug when good times return.
Accordingly, crime multiplies as
the consumption Of alcoholic drink
decreases, and diminishes as the
consumption of alcoholic drink in
creases.
If we were to argue like the pro-
hibitionisss, we might say that the
increased use of alcoholic drink di-
minishes crime, while the diminu-
ton Of its use causes crime tG in
crease. But we do not want to
draw any such conclusion All
we want to show is the utter futil-
ity of trying TO charge crime 10
drink.
And yet it is not so perfectly alb
surd to suggest that TO with hold
alcoholic drink from the masses
may multiply crime The psy-
chologist realizes than when the
means of recreation are withdrawn
and the mental depression produced
by lack of work and the clamor OF
children for bread, is aggravated
by the dull monotony of an un.
stimulated life, mental conditions
are created which are favorable for
such explosions as manifest them
selves in crime and disorder.
Nothing would be better culcu-
lated to generate that restlessness
which leads unconsciously to out.
breaks against law ard order than
the deafening sameness of individ-
ual life unbroken by frequent re-
course to recreation. Cases are
known where the sameness of in.
