nently connected with the business in

and at the time Of his death was one Of
the prominent real estate owners here.
In company with his wife, Mr.. Classic
was driving into Belle Fourohe from a
trip out In the country in the vicinity
OF Fruttdale, They had reached place
on the road about mile this side Of
Belle Fourche, where the country road
crosses the Northwestern railroad
tracks. There is quite a cut where
the accident occurred, and while the
driver of an auto or a vehicle has q
chance to see the railroad tracks in
both directions, he has to be keeping a
close watch. 1t was just about $3.50.
when the regular Belle Fourohe, Mis-
land and Newell train was making it's
last trip for the day, when the accident
occurred which resulted in the death
OF Mr.. Classic. Mrs Classic says that
they saw the train approaching when
they entered the cut, and that Mr..
Classic, who WAS driving, applied the
brakes. but that the brakes refused to
work, They had already entered the
out and were on their wey down the
slope when the train approached, run
ring at its usual rate of speed, and as
they could not stop the auto it ran
upon the tracks and was struck by the
train. Mr.. Classic was thrown from
the auto into nearby field, and when
the train was backed up after the &C
cident, he was found sitting up in the
field. He was, however, fatally injured,
the back of his skull having been
crushed in, and, it is believed his spine
broken. He was placed upon the train
and hurried to Belle Fourohe, but he
died in about twenty-five minutes from
the effects of his injuries after the ao-
cident happened. Mrs. Classic was
thrown under the machine. which had
literally been smashed to pieces, and
she had to be dug out from the debris.
Her injuries consist of badly cut
head and a number of severe oon-
tusions and bruises. She is not in any
danger and after day or so will be
able to leave her bed She was very
anxious about her husband, but when
che questioned the people who had
gone to her assistance they would not
tell OF his death. Mr.. Classic was
prominent In Masonic circles, and was
also active in the Elks. The author

BumbIebee Souvenirs for Children From
State Fair
Huron, S. D., August 9th: The state
fair has a hive full of humble bee
souvenirs which will be sent free to
all South Dakota boys and girls who
ask for them. These buzzing ourios-
tiles cannot sting because they have
no stingers. In fact they can fly only
in circles, not In straight line.
Last year the fair gave the boys and
girls souvenir jumping horses, for
which hundreds of requests were re-
ceived each week. According to SEQ
retary Mcllvsine, the new humble bee
souvenirs are far more fun than the
jumping horses. SO get busy. boys and

follow opposite methods. Exercise is
the factor that brings about these de-
eirable conditions.

Former Hot Springs Musician Gets Fine
Notice
In the current issue of the United
Musician, Herbert L. Hutchins is the
subject of half page write up accom-
panied by cut. OF Mr.. Hutchins, who
formerly resided in Hot Springs as
member of the B. NJ. 8 band 1t is said:
"Mr. Herbert L Hutohins, the con-
genial and well-liked cornetist of
Butte, Montana, has recently returned
to his home city after several months

Missouri, under Mr.. w. M. Eby, cornet
teacher and manager Of the Virtuose
Cornet School. 1t is long distance
from Butte to Kansas City, but Mr..
Hutohins tells the writer that the very
high quality of instruction he received
and the improvement he has made in
his playing In the past three months
has more than repaid him for the sev-
eral hundred dollars expense in going
to the Virtuose Cornet School for cor
net lessons.
"Mr. Hutchins comes from q we'll

father and two brothers, a. we'll as
himself, all being professional cornet-
lists. Herbert L. Hutchins, the cele-
brated cornetist, of Chicago. was an

"He reads music like ''streak Of

who know that he seldom needs re-.

When playing year ago under the
direction of Liberstti, he was com.
p!imented by that famous band leader

EORTY-SEVEN years ago tender and
patriotic hearts first consecrated
one day to the tear and to the
laurel. The grass on the graves OF
the blue and the gray had shown green
but two seasons after the close of the
great Civil war when the mournfui
duty Of decking the last resting place
of the departed brave formally began
Since that time the beautiful me
mortal plan has expanded until now.

Of hundreds of thousands of dead.
But 1t Is a melancholy fact that
while the reverent custom has con-
stantly spread in observance, section.
alism has attended the yearly remem-
brance, is the comment of Richard g.
Conover. Not in the way of narrow
ness of observance, for both in the
North and the South the graves of for.
mer enemies have not been forgotten
In the local decoration. Blue and gray
alike have received their equal quota
of respect. It Is in the deliberate set
ting apart of different memorial days
that the traces of sectionalism re-
main. A country united .or half a
century has not yet fixed day Of
common tribute to brave men who
died for principle.
Time Ripe to Unite on Day.
With the coming Of the northern
Memorial day of 1915 there also comes
from veterans and patriotic men and
women a desire to unite in one great
national holiday every year the task
of honoring the Federal and Confed-
crate fighting men who have joined
the great majority.
That the time is ripe for the accom-
plishment of such fitting project was
evidenced at the half century reunion
OF the blue and gray on the battlefield
of Gettysburg. There where they had
frantically sought to shed each others
blood fifty years before the grizzled
veterans. many on both sides clad in
the same uniforms, embraced, drank
from the same canteen and reposed at
night, shoulder to shoulder. under the
same tent.
Any differences there might have
been remaining between the living
Federals and Confederates were then
and there forever banished On the
same day North and South met to pay
tribute to valor. In the same way it
lis proposed now to have the blue and
gray, all over the country. mourned
annually on the same day.
