On The Job Three Years.

With this issue of the Pioneer we
close our third year rs Editor of this
paper. 1t was three years ago No
vember lst that we took charge oI
this paper, and the Pioneer now has
the distinction of being the only pa
per in the county that has been under
one management for three continuous
years. The three years have slipped
by quite rapidly ard we have enjoyed
our residence in Wood and Mellette
county. While our task, in the main
has been pleasant one, yet at times
it has required some close "fgeren'
to steer the craft free of the rocks that
wreck business.
Our greatest need now, as three
years ago, is railroad, TO open up
this rich new country 80 the markets
of the world, and the people are still
looking forward with much optomism
to the day when the steam cars will
actually be hauling out our products
to the markets of the world. Some
of the homesteaders that were here
three years ago have proved up and
left, simply for the lack of railroad
facilities, others have come in, aud
number have stayed and are make
ing good, are adding to their worldly
p1sessions, and when the railroad
does finally come. they will be we'll Ito
do. while the new cOmers will ust be
getting started. We know OF none
who proved mp and left, but what
would like to come back, and will
come back just as soon as the railroad
builds out this way. There are more
cattle, more hogs, more poultry, more
corn and wheat, potatoes and hay etc.
in the county today than there were
three years ago, but not quite as many
white people perhaps, but those that
are here are building good houses and
barns ard are improving their home
steads. They are doing the real
pioneer work in developing this coun
try and are deserving of ali the en-
couragement, help and aid that can
be given them. One of the industries
that has sprung up within the past
two years, is the dairy industry, and
it is growing by leaps and bounds.
Wood was the first place in the coun-
ty where cream could be marketed :,
and we now lave three cream buyers
here, and the cream marketed here is
growing in volume and it is sure to be
one OF the big industries of this sec
tion in years to come. This is nat
ural dairy country and the industry
can be made to yield very large pro
lit. : In the not distant future we
would like to see creamery located
in W ood, and we should like to see
SON. Of our largest dairymen equip
their ranches with milking machines,
which would take considerable of the
drud gerry out of the dairy business,
and at the same time be more sanitary
The development of this country will
be more rapid each succeeding year,
and it will be but few years until
those who came here and stuck by
the country will be able to take life

opportunity Of hearing the worlds
favorite comic opera with the greatest
aggregation Of stars ever heard be-

OF "The Bohemian Girl" little need

and its famous numbers, such as

wherever music exists. In spite of
the fact that for years good, bad and
Indifferent companies have hacked
away at this beautiful opera its
popularity has increased year after
year, and it stands today acknowl-

MAGICANS PROVED THOROUGH
ENTERTAINERS - FOURTH LY-
CEUM NUMBER COMING MON
DAY.

In spite Of the unfavorabie weather
q goodly number Of folks both young
and old, assembled at armory hall
Friday evening to be entertained by
the Floyds, the magicians. Ii there
was one person in the entire audience
who was not thoroughly and complete
" entertained, we have yet to hear
Of him. The Floyds held their audi
ence In rapt attention from start to
finish. One mysterious, magical
wierd and unnatural performance fol
lowed another in such close succession
that It was hard to believe that one
was actually awake and In his proper
senses.
The Floyds made good, and II II e
be hoped that the Lyceum public VIII
have another opportunity to see and
hear them In the not far distant fu-
ture.
The Hampton Court Singers are
booked for tomorrow night. This COM
pany Of accomplished entertainers
was organized and coached by Elias
Day, Director Lyceum Art Conserva,
tory, Fine Arts Building, Chicago
The company is composed of two mer
and three women, Of varying talents
and accomplishments. They will give
one of the most unique and delightful
entertainments in the course. Judg'
ing from the interest already being
manifested in this number, 1t will
be well attended and seating room
will be at premium.

musical world. Critics in every city
where this all-star cast has appeared
agree that for all around excellence
it has never been equalled, and some
even go 30 far as to say It excels the
cast originally selected by the COM
poser himself for the initial perform
ance. Add to this an especially Sc
lected chorus which has played to-
gether in over 400 performances and
you have a combination such as is sell

"a Fool There Was

An adaptation from Rudyard Kip
ling's famous poem, THE Vampire
has been booked for return engage
ment at the Isis by Manager Jones,
to appear at that Theatre tomorrow,
for one day only. This picture ap-
peared In Pensacola about eight
months ago, and caused great SEN
sation. However, there was q large
number of people who were unable to
see it on its last presentation in this
city and Tor that reason the manage
ment believes that 1t will be glad It'd
ings to those same people, and also
to a great number who have witnessed
it. It showed on its last appearances
at. advanced prices. This time It will
appear at popular prices. The film
is reprint Of the original and posi-
lively new picture. This sensation
al play, one Of the most successful of
the century, and for many years the
starring vehicle Of Robert billiard.
has been converted into a supremely
vivid and startling photoplay by the
William Fox forces. Edward Jose,
former leading man with Sarah Bern
hardt, portrays in mastery manner
the fool" who forsakes family and
friends for soulless, sensual crea-
ture in the guise Of beautiful wo-
man. See it at the Isis tomorrow.
Grand Double Bill Tuesday. !.
Tuesday at the Isis will be an
other Of Manager Jones' big bargain
days in the form Of two big features
on the same day, and when we say
1.-TWO features" we mean precisely
what the words imply. On the bill
will appear Miss Gladys Hanson, late
leading lady with E. b. Sothern and
at present leading lady in sThe Ware
Case" with Lou, Tellegen, making q
season run on Broadway this year ap-
pearing in 'The Primrose Path, /" writ
ten by Bayard WELLER, author Of
within the Law" One scene worthy
OF especial mention Ii q cabaret
scene, In which there Is a very dar-
ing dance enacted by voluptuous wo-
men. The other feature on the bill
will be the tremendously popular Car
lyle Blackwell in one Of his rarest
features entitled 1.-THE Spitfre," which
| is nautical farce Of laughter. The
former feature is in five big acts and
the latter is in four acts. Those who
attend the Isis Tuesday win receive
their Santa Claus before Christmas
arrives. Those who stay away VIII
have much to regret.
