President Greatly Affected.

inwardly affected in a manner his most
intimate friends have never before
known. Yesterday afternoon he played
eighteen holes of golf while fierce fight

night he went to bed at IL o'clock, his

Arising at o'clock this morning he re-
sumed another day of strain with an out
ward composure that commanded the at
tention OF all who saw him. but the few
words he uttered to his family and inti-
mate advisers indicated the deep grief
he felt that it had fallen to mis- lot to
give the orders that shed the first Ameri-
can blood on Mexican soil and inaugural
ed what may be years of warfare and
struggle. loss of thousands of lives and

Naturally, therefore. the pause of to-

together of all the ends for analysis as
to its bearing on what IS likely to come.

From the Herald:
Twenty-six years ago this month
vas the great South Dakota blizzard
that the old settlers are always telling
about and the eastern papers seem to
think it occurs here annually. 1t was
a terrible storm which came up sud
denly and caught people unprepared
for it and many people lost their lives.
Stories are told of farmers who were
in their barns when the storm came up
and lost the way trying to go to their
houses. People away from home and
school children in country schools be-
came lost on the prairies and many
were found afterwards frozen to death.
1t was the worst storm ever known in
South Dakota and will be remembered
by those who lived here at the time
long as they live. How different
from u weather this winter?

NEARBY NOTES OF INTEREST

That portion Of the state lying be-
tween Huron and Rapid City, an en-
pire in itself, is today the biggest
dairy country in the west. Creamery
men have their eyes on this territory
and it promises to be the ground Of
battle for big creamery interests. A
prominent man informed the writer
recently that this territory was rapidly
being covered with dairy cows, that it
was now the best can producing
territory in the state and that In his
opinion the industry has only fairly
started. This being so it will shortly
follow that this portion of the state
will be the wealthiest district in the
commonwealth.-Pierre Dakotan.
