There were 16 members to join last night. Martin Becker was in town yes terday and informs us that there will be a telephone line connecting Kcwanee and Sparks with North Table soon.

Mr. Langer and brother and two of their neighbors were in town last week , hauling grain to the mill here. Frank Stanton , a wealthy stock man of Rapid City , S. D. , was in our city last week on business. He is an old friend of F. K. Bivens , whom he hadn't seen for 20 years , and talked with him over the phone s to Rosebud from here. x Tom Yearnshaw is in the city to d attend a meeting of the Eagles last a night in which several new mem tie bers were taken in , it being the titl last chance to get in at the charter tlti . The has ti member rate. lodge now tiv a membership of nearly 100. v i An effort is being made to get a lecture course during the summer v Normal which is to consist of these and entertainments vtl notable speakers tl ments : Frank Roberson , Frank tlsi si Nelson of Kansas , Montaville Flowers , Slayton Jubilee Singers z and the Lotus Glee Club of Boston. of Frank Mogle , of Cody , was a c pleasant visitor at this office last Thursday while in town on busi tl ness and paying taxes. Mr. Mo tlOJ tlW gle has recently purchased more of OJhi land and more cattle , which we hi hope will make him a fair return as in profits as a man of industry de cc ccP serves. P Robert Burns , a noted outlaw , who broke out of prison at the bi Cheyenne River Agency about a hi year ago by cutting a hole through sees the floor and digging out under the prison , was arrested last Thurs day and lodged in jail at Rosebud esTl Saturday by Deputy Sheriff Brown Tli of Oacoma , Lyman county , S. D. ' mn Burns had been operating on the Lei Lit Rosebud reservation during the He past year and was caught with 35 Oal head of Alex Bordeaux's horses . S 1 hat he had stolen some three weeks j weiI previous to his arrest. He will Llg Mi : be tried at ' Mark Cyphers returned from a trip up near Chamberlain , S. D. , last Saturday , where he secured the horse that was stolen from him last spring. Mr. Ayers had learn ed of the horse while hunting for his mules and from the description thought it to be Mr ! Cyphers' horse , which proved to be the case. The Russo-Japanese war reports are meagre and each seems to be getting ready to do something later on. Some skirmishes and a few attempts bombarding Vladivostok and Port Arthur and other ports held by the Russians have failed to give the Japanese much comfort. Russia is massing troops at princi pal points and Japan will have to hurry if they accomplish anything before Russia gets settled to stay. Several names have been promi nently mentioned as candidates for the city council at the coming spring election. L. C. Sparks , J. W.Stetter and Martin Christensen made a good race last spring and it is thought that either if available could be elected this year. The names of J. W. Stetter and W. F. A. Meltendorff are spoken of as likely candidates. Now is the time to get to the front with the best men. John Kudelka was down from near Georgia with a load of wheat Tuesday which he sold at the mill for T5c per bushel. He raised ov er 400 bushels last year on about 16 acres , making about 25 bushels per acre. Mr. Kudelka wants to sell his farm and range if he can sell soon. Anyone wanting a good place had better see him soon. All improvements go with the place and about SO head of cattle are of fered at § 13 a head with the farm. Catholic Oh arch Announce ment.

Father Muyssen will be in Stu art on Saturday and Sunday and back to Valentine on Monday. "A Rosebud Citizen" rather spread himself in THE VALENTINE DE3IOCRAT and we believe he made a statement or two that he cannot substantiate. He says : Anyone fortunate to draw a prize can go to any bank and get the money necessary for the first payment , and if lucky enough to get a quarter section in the farm lands he could easily get the money to pay for it outright without making the payment in installments. ] " Now we would like to know where , the bank is located that would advance or loan money to the amount of § 800 on a quarter section of the land in Gregory Co. "Even at § 5 per acre , " tlie Citi zen < says , there will not be an acre land left unclaime d in Gregory county < in six weeks after it opens. Now if land is so valuable and the people are so eager for claims why don't they file on land north White river where "there arc liundreds of claims of as good land there is in any part of Gregory a Bounty , and all it costs is the ex pense < of filing. We wish 'to say to the "Rose- ud Citizen" that to say the least article in THE DEMOCRAT - iounds rather "fishy.
