Just bit of tenderness,
Just bit of song;
Don't care how you laugh it,
Guess it helps along;
Just a little thinking of the one

Just bit of jollying,
Just a bit of cheersRA
Don't care if it's foe ress,
Helps lot while
Helps her in her ID slours to
smile and sing N6Iwait,
Helps her bloom as bright as flow

Just bit Of taffying,
Just bit of praise;
Don't care if you jeer at it.

Pays to see her tenderness re-

Pays to learn the love is-the on1v

BEET SUGAR 80 YEARS AGO

Mrs. C. S. Brooke of this city HIS a
cop of the first issue of the Phila'
delphia Public Ledger, published on
Friday morning, March 25th, 1886. One
interesting item in the news columns
is as follows:
1--WE saw in the news rooms of the
Exchange, yesterday, a loaf of sugar
extracted from the beet root, and the
price of which is 9k cents per pound,
We confidently believe that this sugar
will soon become in great demand. II
is clear, the crystals are remarkably
bright, and of fine flavor"
This article proves two things; that
it is a long way from discovery to sue
cess, and that Friday is not an un'
lucky day to start an enterprise, the
Public Ledger being today n Of the
great papers of the United States.

SAY DEATH FROM SUFFoCATlON

According to a Huron dispatch, a re-
port of the state laboratory on the con-
tents of the stomach of the late Melvin
Adamson of that city, a former Brook
ings resident and son of Mrs. Eric Far
ness of this city, reached Huron
last week, and the coroner's inquest
into the death was resumed. Mr..
Adamson, it will be remembered, was
picked up on November 20 on the
Huron streets, thought by the police to
be intoxicated, and after lying in the
city Jail a few hours was found to be
dead.
No trace of poison was found in the
stomach, and whether or not the de
ceased had been using alcoholic LIQUOR
could not be determined, as the stom-
ach was shipped in alcohol and some
would have diffused through the
tissues. The examination of the lungs
corroborated the statement of Huron
physicians that death was probably
due to suffocation. The jury returned
the following verdict:
1--WE, the jury empaneled on the in.
quiry owe the remains of Melvin
Adamson, find that he died from
~strangulation while in a helpless con.
dition.-L. E. Mussetter, J. d. Bruce,

LUCE LINE SHOPS DAMAGED

Serious damage, by fire, to the re-
pair shops of the Luce electric line in
Minneapolis which line has projected
it's road southwestward to Bookings,
is reported by the Minneapolis Journal.
The Journal says:
A pillar of flaming gas that shat
hundreds of feet into the air, following
the explosion of 1000 gallons of gaso-
line, last night drove Minneapolis fire.
men from the Luce Electric line shops
at Sixth avenue, N. and the city limits
just when they thought the fire was
under control.
The towering flame, lasting but a
few minutes, lighted the country and
city for miles and the explosion threw
the flaming timber of the cOmpany's
oil house over a wide area. The shops
were destroyed at a loss of 500, 600
and in one of the two dozen smaller
explosions of single barrels of oil,
Seward Jensen, head machinist, was
burned on the face and hands.
Fire started in a trail of oil leading
from a line of freight cars to the oil
house. None of the workmen knew
how it started. In a moment the oil
house, which contained Is barrels OF
oil and under which was the tank con
tanning the chief supply of gasoline,
was in flames. Workmen fed and
turned in an alarm.
The 25 barrels of oil exploded one
at a time, but the firemen were max
ing good Roadway. Then the flames
reached the tank, the explosion tore
a great hole in the ground and the
pillar of fire lowered above the plant.
The intense heat drove everyone back
and kept them back for several min
utes.
In the meantime the fire spread TO
the roundhouse and machine shop a.
well as to two other smaller buildings.
One of the company's motor cars,
valued at $4,000, was destroyed and
another partly burned. Several cars
were burned. The buildings We're
leveled and the machinery destroyed.
While the losses are covered by in
surance, the work of the road will be
handicapped until the shops can be
rebuilt and new cars obtained to re-
place those burned. The service will
not be crippled, officials said, and
trains will run on schedule today. De
Koven Hunter, general manager, said
he believed the loss will reach 500, 900.

WATERFOWL TRAIN COLLIDES

A rather shaken up and injured crew,
one baggage car somewhat torn up and
two smashed engine pilots is the re.
suit of a collision between the north.
ing Bookings at GAS p. m, and No
SOB, eastbound Northwestern passen,
ger running between Waterfowl and
Tracy, Mimi. The two trains collided
head-on, in the Watertown yards, a
short distance west of the Broadway
street crossing last Saturday night
about ten o'clock, as the B%rookings u
Redtield passenger was pulling out
Both trains were moving slowly when
the engines bumped and although
passengers were severely jolted, few
serious injuries resulted.
Members of the crew of the local
train were injured somewhat. Con.
ductor William F. Chambers returned
to his home at Redfeld still on his
feet but will be laid up for several days
with a fractured jaw bone, severe chest
through by his teeth. Others injured
are Baggageman Paul Fausel who had
his head hurt when, like Conductor
Chambers, he was thrown back into a
seat. Brakeman William Bancroft was
also badly bruised.
The most seriously injured man on
No. SOB is Baggageman Severick, who
was confined to a hospital in Water
town with a wrenched back and in
ternal injuries. Several of the passen-
gers suffered minor injuries, such as
scalp wounds and bruises.
Clouds of steam, escaping from the
valves Of the engines boilers, are
given as the cause of the accident. 1t
is said the steam obscured the view of
the engineers and hat the fact that
both trains were on the same track
stop. However, the trains were barely
moving when the collision occurred.
1t has been the custom to change
engines on the east bound passenger,
near the water tank at the west end
Of the Northwestern yards, and Satur-
day night the east bound train stopped
near there and was being backed onto
a side track to give right of way to the
other train when the collision occurred
Although it was known that the east
bound train was in the yards, the crew
of the Brookings passenger believed it
to be on a side track.
The damage to the engines was
slight, only the pilots being smashed.
The front truck of one of the engines
left the rails. The truck was worked
back on the track and the mixup
Strengthened out so that both trains
left the station a little over two hours
after the collision.

Paving Committee Named

At the board meeting matters left
from the December session of the club
were cleaned up. President M. G..
Carlisle appointed the three cashiers
of the city banks, Geo. w. Cobel of
the First National, G.. j. Flittie of the
Bank Of Brookings and II. +. Harold
son of the Farmers National, as a COM
mittee to act for the club on the city
paving question. There may be meth
Cd in madness" is an old saying, and
a glance at the personnel Of the paw
ing committee would convince one
that President Carlisle is an ardent
paving advocate. The club committee
will cooperate with the city council in
securing an adequate sewer system
for ~Brookings, and the possibilities are
the city will be in the throes of the
paving question next summer.
The board also authorized an appro-
priation of $1OO.O 90 for the Dakota
Deaconess hospital, the same amount
given last year. The shortage of
$500 of the band trip to Big Stone
last summer was also paid. The new
members of the board were sworn in
and following the organization of the
new body the officers for the coming
year were elected.

Secretary Reads Report

Only a few members were present
at the Friday night meeting and after
the election of the new directors and
the reading of Secretary c.. A. Gull
adjourned for the movies instead of
the regular lunch. Vice-President B.
l.. Thompson presided at the meeting
on account of the absence of President
M. G.. Carlisle.
Secretary Gullick's report showed
that the club is in a fiourishing condi-
ton. On January ! there was a total
cash balance in the treasury of $469.20
and the receivable bills amount 70
81, 500. 90, making the clubs available
funds at present total 81, 1863. 20. Since
July ! the disbursements of the club
have amounted to $1,435.85, which in
clude $104.0S for road work and drag,
$235.05 for advertising, $152.55 for en-
tertainment, etc.
A conservative estimate of the value
of the club Equipment was placed by
Secretary Gullick at 81, 10000, making
the total assets of the club at least
$3,469.20. Last July there were $50
members in good standing. Since that
time six new ones have been added
to the list, while "a have become de-
linquent or moved away, making only
162 in good standing at present.
