Sioux Falls, S. D., March S.-From
clerk in a clothing store at a mooes,
salary to owner of a fine farm of 14l
acres is what has been accomplished
by Fred w. ~Stangohr, a Sioux Falla
young man. in the course of not much
more than seven or eight years. His
health failing from close confinement
in the clothing store, he was advised
to seek outdoor work. A friend 'staked
him" to an express wogan and a horse.
and with these he started in doing Il
dray business on & small scale. Th?
business grew. and from that he drift
ed to truck gardening. In due time
he became owner of five acres of land
neal Sioux Falls and later secures an
other five acres. Truck farming proved
very successful and with the profits
from it and the sale of the 10 acres he
purchased so acres in another location.
The cultivation of the so acres alse
proved very successful and profitable.
and now. with the profits accumulated
from the sale of products and from tho
sale of the so acres. he has purchased
a desirable farm of lao acres, so miles

ACCUSED OF STEALING COAL;
STARTS SUIT FOR SLANDE

Sioux Falls. S. D.. March s.-Papers,
making him the defendant in a uaIl.
age suit for sl00, 600. were served upon
+. L. Maytag, president of the South
Dakota Railway company, with head
quarters in Sioux Falls. as he boarded
a train in this city for Chicago. Th9
suit was instituted against him by
Frank /. Cummins. of this city. For a
number of years Cummins was an Of
ficer of the South Dakota Central rail
way, having retired within the past few
months.
The grounds upon which the dam
age suit is instituted are false and ma
licious SANDER. The plaintiff charges
that the defendant accused him OF
stealing a large amount of coal (said
to have been 50 car loads) which had
been shipped to the railway company.
and converting the same to his own
pecuniary gain. 1t is further set forth
In the complaint that Maytag made a

been a big steal going on at the head
quarters of the railway in
this city and h a Cummins was the

"Eencina" Amazon Valley.

There are as many tales told Of the

is a long way from Khartoum to Vic
toria Falls. but farther still from Para
to the Andean cataracts. Our maps of
the Amazon valley give rivers where
no rivers are, mountains in place OF
plains, plains for mountains. Explora-
ton in central Asia and central Africa
is proceeding; in the middle regions OF
our own continent it is still in its in
fancy.
1t is for this reason that the work OF
the P~eru-Bolivia, Peru-Brazil, Brazil
Bolivia boundary commissions is of
such monumental Importance. They are
running parallels of latitude and meri-
dams of longitude through lands Of
which our knowledge is half guesswork.
wireless means more than a mere sim
plification of the field work they are
carrying out. If settlers on the upper
reaches of the great rivers can flash an

base of supplies, 1000 miles or more
down river, colonization in the m

of the Amazon basin have reckoned
without the host Of modern science.

DIR. Duncan had been out watching

Rescuers hurried to his assistance at

NO PROSECUTIONS FOR
DELINQUENT INTEREST
South Dakota House Forced to
Recede After Deadlock of
10 Hours.

Pierre. s. D, March Sat ) O'CLOCK
this morning the house receded from
It's position of insisting on a $4,000 APP
preparation for prosecuting cases
against former state t~reaSurers. to col
lect interest money, and the 18th ses-
sion adjourned sine die. The provision
for prosecuting interest cases was in
a special bill. defeated in the senate
earlier in the session. The house then
put it in the general appropriations bill
as an amendment and q deadlock en-
sued lasting approximately 10 hours.
until the house receded.
The total appropriations for all pur-
poses Is slightly less h two years
ago. The increase in the general p
preparation bill is about $500. 900,
total of special appropriations.
The senate vas in executive session
for q few minutes to confirm the ap-
pointment of j. l.. Wingfield as head
of the new department of banking and
finance created by the bank guaranty
act.
The house. after completing its work,
began marching and singing while
waiting for the conference report.
What has been the most important
legislation of the session of the South
Dakota legislature, just closing it's BIZ
ennial session. depends upon the view
point of the individual Interested. The
session has been q quiet one in every
way. What is probably the most dar-
ing innovation in legislation is the en-
actment OF a complete primary law,
thus repeating, root and branch. an
act which was placed upon the statute
books through the medium of the initi-
alive provision OF the state constitu-
ton.
After the primary law, probably the
bank guaranty act is of most interest.
1t was passed with very slight opposi-
ton. the bankers themselves assisting
in framing the act. Besides the legis-
lation enacted in this line, two different
acts have been presented through the
initiative to the same effect.
The state tax commission has asked
and secured the presentation to the
people of a constitutional amendment
to change the whole system of taxation
in allowing classification of property by
the legislature, and several enactments
to assist them a. far as possible under
the present constitutional limitations.
Other constitutional questions are those
for the holding of a constitutions con-
vention for general revision, constitu-
tional prohibition n equal suffrage.

He was a senior in the high school

parently of a cheerful nature when in

Twas bright, twas heavenly. but tbs
past"
1t is often a wonder to many why poor
girls often wed their first loves while rich
girls do not. The explanation is simple
when the poor girl meets a young man
whom she likes and who has shown inter-
est In her she builds her future hopes
about him. She is satisfied, nay happy, to-
be wooed and won by him. She looks no
farther for a possible lover. She Is not
expecting to find faults in him, nor hid
ing any that she may have. Hope Is her
guiding star.
With a rich girl, it is entirely different.
She does not pin her faith to finding In
the first man who pays attention to her a
life partner saying to herself, IF l do not
accept him, 1 can never get another OPP
portunity to we'd" She counts on having
plenty of suitors. 1t will be which one She
will take instead of which one she could
get. Hope Is not one of the blessings
which make life's joy for her. She attends
the theater with this one tonight. goes to
the dance with another one next week,
sleigh riding with still another at a week
end party and has no time to crown any
one of them the hero OF her day dreams.
She does not realize that, with hopes
lamp not lighted she misses a CLEAN of
earthly paradise.
The rich girl is never entirely sure that
she will be welded for herself alone. She
never fears missing wedlock ultimately.
Some rich girls imagine-erroneously-if a
poor young man is polite he viii marry
her for her wealth If not for love of her
self. This is not hope but a delusion on
her part. Thu poor girl hopes for a long
life of welded bliss after she marries. If
she finds that the partner Of her life has
traits which she did not know of, she
bravely does her best to bear with and
make the best of them. She has no other
home to go to, no other heart to lean on.
none TO take her part against him and
tempt her to become estranged from him.
If the rich girl finds that her welded
path is not as rosy as she expected, she
is perfectly Independent with him. She
knows that she can gain her freedom. that
she will not suffer thereby as far as sup
port and a roof over her head go. The
relatives who have an eye to her money
take every little act Of his as a lover to
help them widen the breach between them
and the hope of reconciliation is crushed
In her heart.
OF the two. the one who has hope has
everything to live for. The woman who is
without it finds life dreary and the
thought of the future unpleasant. 1t is
not wrong for young girls to have love
dreams. 1t is nature, therefore natural.
Poor girls are not building their hopes
upon finding a rich young man to wed.
All they expect Is a loving and true heart.
With such a man they hope to win happi-
ness and good fortune, If the latter is in
tended for them.

Arctic explorers often report the dis
covery of flowers blooming in icebergs.
The explanation of this is as follows:
It appears that some animals carry on
their feet a growth OF moss, which is
deposited on the ice while it is attached
to the mainland in polar regions. In
time this decays and forms a shallow
soil in which the seed of buttercups
and dandeiions often find a lodging,
borne by currents OF wind that doubt

when he great cleaning iceberg floats
