Grazing Rates Made.

Pierre.-State Forester G.. w. Ros-
kie was down from hi reserve in con-
ference with the state land depart
ment in regard to administrative work
on the reserve. He reports the fence
sround the whole tract, IL by Is miles
in extent, as completed, and while it
is the plan to finally make this tract
a game preserve as we'll as a forest
reserve, it will be several years be-
fore it is stocked with game, and in
the meantime it is proposed to lease
grazing permits within the tract, as it
is estimated that at least two thou
sand head of stock could be grazed
within the fence. A grazing rate of 60
cents for cattle and 35 cents for horses
for the winter seaso vas fixed and
one of $1.25 for cattle and $1.40 for
horses for the summer season, the
seasons running from May to Novem-
Der. This rate for outsiders, while a
lower rate, will be made to those who
reside within the reserve, several
homesteaders being located within the
boundaries Of the fence. The policy
of leasing specific p~asturage areas
within the resrve will be discontinued
at the end of present leases.

pleted around the state game park, To-
Gated between Custer and Hermosa, it
has been decided to hold a hunt in this
park on Monday, December z, 1914. to

10, which have been purchased from
the Philip herd, will be placed in the
park.

have been attained on any Of the va
rious fields Of battle the wal chancel-
lories OF the belligerent powers have
RETAINED from making known this
fact to tho public through their usual
official communications.
Unof.fcsal advices from Petrograd
assert, that the Russians In Poland
have captured ten miles Of German
trenches between Glovno and Sobota,
near the coast OF Lode, and in addf-
ton 900 prisoners seven suE and
many wounded. The capture Of these
trenches, it IL asserted, strengthens

London, Nov. 0...-Another day OF
the crucial battle between the Rus
SLAMS and the Germanic allies in Po-
land has passed without news OF a
decisive result. The Berlin official
statement tonight says that there Is
nothing OF importance to report from
Poland, while the Russian govern
ment rests upon its warning against
overoptimism.
The facts, as cleaned from various
messages OF correspondents, appear to
be that three semi-independent en-
gagements are progressing before
Thorn, on the north, and Cracow, on
the south, in which both combatants
have achieved local successes, with
out Q distinct victory for either arms.
Views Of British.
Some OF the British military experts
believe that Field Marshal yon Hin
denburg's forces have been split into
three units, one OF which certainly
is almost completely enveloped, while
the Russians have driven a wedge
between the German army and It's
Austrian ally in the region OF Cracow.
They declare that the Germans have
consistently underestimate b quail
ties Of their Muscovite opponents and
have likened them to a body com
posed wholly of second line troops,
but are now rushing heavy reinforce
ments from the western line to avert
Q Polish Sedan. They express the
opinion that the issue depends on
whether these arrive in time.
Berlin reports the failure OF the
Russian attacks on the Notifications
east OF Darkehmen, in East Prussia,
with heavy losses, while unofficial
messages from Petrograd describe i'm
portant Russian gains and the capture
OF ten miles OF trenches to the north
east Of Lode.
Advices from Holland report that
railway traffic, newspapers and posts
In the Brussels region are entirely
suspended. 1t is presumed for the pur-
pose Of s%uppressing news Of a move
ment Of German troops to the east
ward.
Western Zone Quiet.
The only development of the day In
the western theater was-the renewal
OF the British naval bombardment Of
the German base at Zeebrugge.
England was surprised at the an
nouncement that King George had left
last night on a. visit to the headquar-
ters Of the British forces in France,

mother, Alexandra, will be celebrated

Loses Stock In Wreck.

Tyndall.-A recent train wreck near
Mapleton, Ia, has resulted in a dam.
age suit being instituted in the state
circuit court of Bon Homme county
against the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Pau Railway company. The cult was
instituted by Joseph cambridge, a well
known South Dakota cattle shipper.
He had five carloads of cattle in the
Mapleton train wreck, and seeks to re-
cover damages for injuries done the
five carloads. The railway company,
it is alleged, refused to make what
cambridge deems a fair settlement for
the damages sustained, and hence he
commenced the suit. The case will
be tried during the December term OF
| circuit court for Bon Homme county.
| Cattle shippers generally will be inter
ested in the outcome Of the suit. |
Dawson Election Contest.
Mitchell.-For the first time in a
| quarter of a century election matters
will be brought into court by the &C.
ton Of John Anthem, Jr., in cotesting
the election of Charles Fowler, a
| Democrat, who won over Mr.. Anthem,
a Republican, by the mario Wmargln OF
AZ votes. Alleged Irregularities and
carelessness in counting the ballots in
the wards Of the city of Mitchell, espe-
cially the Second ward, are made the
basis for the contest.
Once at Fl. Meade. .

fact thai General Hugh L. Scott, the
newly appointed chief Of staff for the
army in the United States was in the
early days stationed at FIT. Meade near
Sturgis and then enjoyed a wide &C.

The fear Of the submarine is not diminished by
the fact that the more modern Of them are large
enough to traverse any and have cruising
radius Of 1000 miles. They can seek out the
enemy They carry enough torpedoe5 to make
{ EN- menace to more than ship, and are
equipped with several tubes for discharging them.
They carry guns for fighting while on the
surface. Moreover, they have been made more
habitsble, which, Of course, is likely to make men
object less to service In them 1t has been sug-
gested that the only defence batteshp or
cruiser has against the submarine is flight. Even
a slow battleship can travel much faster than a
submerged submarine. The armoring of the bot
tom Of war vessels and ramming have been pro-
posed methods of protection, but these, it must
be admitted, in view Of the tremendous explosive
power Of the torpedo its Independent range of ac-
ton and the difficulty Of maneuvring giant bat
tleship TO ram so elusive an object as hidden
mobile submarine, do not promise much. Dozens
o. submarines can be constructed for the cost of
a single battleship and while of the levia-
thans is being pieced together.
The torpedo net is of no avail for torpedoes
are now provided with net cutters A fleet can
longer feel SAFE even when sheltered within a
harbor protected by nets and fortiicatons Tie
submarine can make its way through the net, per-
out injury.
While there may have been doubt regarding the
fuGment Of Sir Percy's prophecies, the great
powers Of Europe have not permitted themselves
to be caught mapping. They have been building
submarines in large numbers. England adopted
tho Holland type, and has seventy-six available
and a score more building. France, owing to the
devotion which she bestowed upon submarines in
preference to dreadnoughts, is particularly well
equipped with this insdous type Of war vessel.
She has devised her own models and has at least
seventy vessels. Some of those included in the
estimates for 1913 and 1914 were to be very
powerful and large. Some Of them we're to be
more than 500 tons in displacement, more than
200 feet long and provided with engines capable
Of developing 1000 horsepower. 1t provided
that they should have ten tubes and be able TO
fire broadsdes Of torpedoes If necessary. Their
speed in some cases was 10 he ten knots sub
merged and from fifteen to twenty awash It
was thought that France, in spending so large a
proportion of her navy budget for submarines,
was putting her money on the wrong horse, but
it may yet prove that she was not so far wrong.
Germany has been more chary of information
regarding her submarines. She has at least
score Of the Z type, some of the later having a
displacement Of 500 tons and speed Of twelve
knots submerged and seventeen on the surface.
They were built by the Krupps, and some OF them
are a modification OF the Lake type, invented in
this country. They carry guns which be
lowered within the hull when the vessel is about
to 60 below.
In view Of the exploit Of the German submarine
it may be Of interest TO give more detailed de-
lcriptlOn of the Krupp boat It is provided with

TYQE OF AMERICAN TORPEDO BOAT DESTROYER,

most cpocnaI 1t will stand out as one Of the
great incidents of the war. and may, perhaps, be
ranked with the fight between the Monitor and
the Nerrimac
On September the British cruiser Pathfinder,
sailing in the neighborhood of the Scottish
coast, was sent to the bottom by German sub
marine. This the first success OF raiding
expedition by such q vessel. Tie striking feature
of this exploit was that submarine journeyed
hundreds of miles across the North Sea alone in
search Of prey and, so far as is known, got safely
home again. Another German submarine, how
ever was not successful on that day. She mad
vertently exposed her coming tower while in the
middle of British feet Of seven vessels. Some
of their shots struck her and she sank TO the
bottom like stone. Seven days later the British
again scored when one of the units Of England's
big feet Of submarines, E-9, ventured into the
perilous waters Of Wilhelmshaven sank the Ger
man cruiser Hela and returned to her station
safely. And only a few days ago this same sub
marine made another raid into German waters of
tn, mouth Of the River Ems and sank German
torpedo boat destroyer, returning safely to her
home port The destroyer sank within three
minutes after being struck by the torpedo.
1t may be imagined that the men who fight
upon England's floating steel battlements are not
over comfortable Wnen they thlnk OF submarines

It. Torpedo boats Of the ordinary kind can be
detected. searchlight pick them up al
night But the submarine when submerged is In
visible from the deck Of war vessel by day or
by night Should the periscopes be seen and even
be struck by accident the boat is not disabled.
