C r OF MACHINERY
FOR THE STATE FAIR

Huron, S. D.-There will be acres
and acres of machinery and imple-
ment displays at the coming South
Dakota State Fair says Secretary
C. N. McIlvaine. With seventy en-
tries already in and others arriving
daily it now looks as though the
South Dakota Machinery exhibit
would eclipse that of any other state
exposition.
The reason why the great machin-
cry concerns patronize the South Da-
kota State Fair so literally is attri-
buted by Secretary McIlvaine to the
fact that they are given such excel
lent exhibit space and opportunity
for practical demonstration. This
year the one big entrance to the
grounds leads up to Third Street past
the machinery pixies which in turn
are directly tributary to the main
exposition buildings, Machinery Hall
Horticulture, Dairy, Poul.ry and Ag-
ricultural Buildings.
F%orty-five acres of the ground
proper are given over to the tractor
and pillow exhibitors for demonstra-
ton purposes. In addition the Board
has leased for five years $40 acres
for further demonstration purposes.
This total is the largest acreage Civ
en- by any fair in the world to fur
Their and aid such a line of exhibits.
All space is allotted to exhibitors on
a fair and square basis.

DALLAS IS

Dallas, s. D.-Charles H. Fink, a
hard-working Dallas, blacksmith, has
fallen heir to a fortune estimated at
$1.25O,O00 through the death of an

bonds and valuable oil lands. At
torney G. E. Allison, of Scranton, at

city. A letter had been sen to him
at Turtle Lake, N. d., his last known
address, and returned to the writer.
Through communication with rela-
tives at Neigh, Neb., Mr.. Fink's
present address was secured.
When a young boy, Mr.. Fink lived
for several years with Mrs. Morgan,
his mothers sister, and the attach
ment she formed for him was mani
tested at the handsome provision
made for him at her death. although
he had no intimation for several
years past of being in her good
graces.

NEW mEALIsM ABROAD.
Irving s. Cooper Says Less Atten.
tIon Is Paid to Religion.

THE New Spirituality" was the sub
ject, Of the lecture delivered last evening
by Irving s. Cooper before the Wash
ington Theosophical Federation.
"A new idealism," he said, ''is abroad
in the world today. Less attention Is
paid to religious observance and cere-
mony than Of yore. but more to prac-
teal helpfulness.
In the past we have been taught to
place the spiritual in a little compart-
meRt by itself away from the practical
and the real.
The new spirituality, however, goes
deeper. 1t teaches that there is some
thing far better and more profound than
ceremonial observance-forgetfuln Of
self; an honest effort to help our broth
ers in life's battles; q real desire to
become channels through which the d.
vine law, which is the law Of love, can
be expressed
The spiritual man judges OF life's
value by the opportunities 1t offers for
service; the worldly man by what he
can get out Of it for himself

The Excise Board refused to grant
George Nesline a license to sell strong

posed Of his entire stock Saturday night
in an outright sale, filed his place with
National Capital Lager Beer and was
ready for the boys yesterday-the Sab
bath.
II was only near beer he sold. but
the multitude came in great numbers and
before the sun had set fifteen barrels had
been emptied.
-Four bartenders, their left sleeves cir
cled with bands Of crepe, stood behind
the bar from which they had served

hundreds that came that way. The big
schooners which once sold, when filled
with foamy beer. for 3 nickel, were no
more, except few around which q band
OF crepe had been tied.
Police POwerIeHs to Act.
The police Of the Fifth precinct could
take no action, because the old revenue
license Of the place granted Il the right
to sell near-beer. The place was opened
more or less as q test case.
Nesline's bar came within the 1,00o-foot
radius from Marine Barracks. and for
this reason a license could not be granted
by the Excise Board.
Before the IL saloons denied licenses
by the Excise Board closed their doors
for all on Saturday night free liquor was
given those desiring it. Hundreds Of
quarts. plnts, and halfs were PRESENTED
free OF charge, with the result that be-
