There was great loss of stock in the

it on cattle recommend it highly.

nu eiiaps in the cattle business by
which you can get rich in a day or a

portunities to lose what you have been
years in accumulating and you can
lose it in a year or in a day.
Through an oversight last week an
article announcing the arrival on
Sunday evening , the 16th inst. , of
Mrs. Sol. Morey and her daughter ,
Gladys , and the baby , from Dead-
wood , where they have been for near
ly a year. Mr. Morey came a couple
of days later. They will visit with
relatives and friends here for a month
before returning to the Blacfc Hills ,
where Mr. Morey has found employ
ment as a carpenter during the past
year , at good wages ,
We no longer hail with delight the
Chipping in to this country such cat
tle 1 as come from Sioux City , now
famous as the ' 'Sioux City dogies , "
nor any dther cattle offered cheap by
commission houses in lots to suit the
purchaser. J They have proved a fail
ure in making money for the stock
men of Cherry countv. Many cattle
thus shipped in are infected with dis
ease and our stockmen can ill afford
to hazard their successful and grow
ing herds by placing disease among
them. The DEMOCRAT suggests cau
tion to its readers.
Last week a gentleman and two
young ladies stopped in our city for
three days advertising Baker's cocoa
and chocolate. They took ujs their
headquarters at the stores of Daven
port & Thacher and the Red Front ,
where they furnished hot cocoa drinks
to everyone free of charge. They es
tablished a reputation for that drink ,
the most delicious , and gave instruc
tions how to make it , The young la
dies were dressed to represent the
picture on each box of cocoa and were
very attractive. They left pleasant
memories of their bewitching smiles
and a longing to see them once again
lingers in the vagaries of a bachelor
mind. ]
