LIFE in TRENCHES
DAKOTA BOYS LETTER FROM
THE FRONT IN BELGIUM.

Pierre, Oct. ga letter has been
received here by a boy friend of John
Boucher. son of Judge Lyman T..
Boucher, who is fighting with the
Canadian troops in the trenches in
Belgium, in which he says:
We'll, the wal rolls on. and any
definite settlement seems as far away
as ever. But we should worry, for
expect to get TO England soon, and,
believe me, hat between Turkish
baths, autos. theaters and real beds,
| shall have some time. The Strand,
Picadilly and Lancaster square.
Wow!
Our battery has had no real fight
ing for some time. but we keen life
from being too monotonous by letting
loose a bit mornings or evenings. For
the last couple of days the Germans
have been throwing over quite a few
shells. However. they don't worry
us fsuch, except that they occasion
ally disturb us while we are cooking
meals, making it more %expedient for
us to postpone our meal until they
finish firing.
we are getting the trenches fixed
up so comfortable that we would
about as soon be in the trenches as
out of them. Last time we were in,
the Germans blew in the parapet in
front of our dugout, with a coal box
filling one of the entrances, and dirt
led things up generally. That night
we got even with them by turning the
guns into their working party which
they had out fixing up their barb
wire and silenced one of their ma
chine guns. The weather here is fine.
The farmers were busy threshing
wheat the last time we were out of
the trenches"

STATE ORGANIZATION
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS ORGAN
IZE A STATE ASSOCIATION.

Mitchell, Oct. 23.-With forty-six
representatives from seventeen
ties present, county commissioners of
South Dakota assembled in Mitchell
yesterday for their first gathering
and formed a state organization. w.
f. Brazil of Charles Mix county was
elected president; f. l.. Clark of Law
renee county, vice president; c. t.
Charnock of Minnehaha county, sec
retary-treasurer.
The commission in the sessions of
afternoon and evening centered their
attention upon good roads for South
Dakota. The need of more and bet
ter highways was thoroughly recog-
nized. The methods of the various
counties in meeting their road prob
lens were discussed at considerable
length. The graveling of roads was
strongly recommended. Oiled roads
were considered a failure in most
cases for county use.
Mr.. Charnock of Minnehaha coun-
ty, told how roads are built in that
county. All the work is done by the
county. No contracts are given.
The average mile of road built this
year has cost about 500. County
prisoners have given excellent sery-
ice, over 1000 days of labor having
been performed by them this year
Il. III. Abbott of Bon Homme coun-
ty, said that the automobile owners
in that county had organized in most
effective fashion. All taxes from au-
tomobiles in Bon Homme are used fol
road dragging, which is done for 2s
cents a mile. Fifty miles of road
have been built this year.
Nels Jensen of Dawson county wa:
warmly applauded when he empha'
sized the need of the commissioner:
in any county working together fol
the best interests of the entire coun
ty, in contrast to each commissions
working especially for his own par
ticular district.
Practically every official presen
took part in the discussions of thu
day covering the most importan
phases of the work of county boards
1t was agreed hal annual CONVEX
tions should be held, TO come on tn
second Tuesday of each December
The first annual convention will occu'
this year at Mitchell.

Barnes Circus Makes Fine
Appearance in the Street
Parade; Girls Band.

Electric chimes steam and com
pressed air calliOpes. a girls band and
auto driven animal cages were some Of
the new features of the Al c. Barnes
wild animal circus parade Monday
morning. The chimes and calliopes
were played by girls who executed rag
time, popular airs anG southern meIo-
dies on their instruments with all Of
the skill of pipe organ sOlOist.
The Barnes circus has grown much
since 1t was last seen in FL PasO. Al
though it is late in the season. the
cages and costumes appeared brighter
than most big circus equipment and
the cages containing the animals were
all opened for the public to see a VIC
lation of well established circus Gus
tom of keeping most of the cages
closed in order to create a curiosity
which requires an admission ticket TO
satisfy.
Being a wild animal circus. the
parade was made up largely OF animal
cages containing hyenas. lions. tigers.
leopards monkeys. trained dogs and
other animals The ages showed the
shaggy lions, the spotted leopards and
the nervous hyenas with their trainers
sitting IN the cages as calmly as ii
they were night watchmen at a brick
yard instead of chaperons for a bunch
Of man eating animals.
The cage containing the polar bears
attracted the most attention. as the
shaggy. white fellows were the finest
ever seen here The four big elephants
occupied their time hOnOred places next
to the last calliope and slipped along
the paving like grandfather in car
pet slippers Preceding them were
camels led by turbaned negro boys,
llamas and a caraboa driven by an
other turbaued negro. A cage of
trained seals Eiistened i'm the sun like
a well worn Prince Albert coat
There were four bands. including a
girl band and exclusive of the clown
band. which murdered the muse Of
music at every street intersection The
bands occupied the tops of the animal
cages and played real circus music in
jig time. The devil appeared on one Of
the wagons. dressed in q suit of red
tights. An oriental band consisting
of a girl playing tambOurine and
man pipe rode on one of the wagons
and there were girls in oriental cos
tunes a negro woman riding in soli-
