G. Ballard and sons.
We met Cyrus Hagen 'and U.
G. AVelker \Voodlake on our
streets Tuesday. Grant carried a
big bundle of wolf scalps and if
there are any coyotes yet alive
around Wood lake it's safe to say
they are hiding out when these
hunters tour the hills.
The failroad company has been
very lu > y the past week , putting
up ice from Lake Minnechaduza
which they drag : up an ice chute
with teams to the top of the hill

elevated to slide the ice into box
cars.

years. Grandma Razey has been
visiting Mr. Simons' family at
Sparks for several months past.
W.D. Clarkson has been busy

on his ice harvest which is now
nearly completed. He fills several
large ice houses and takes 'con
tracts -furnishing. people of other
towns with ice , using the railroad
company's chute after the com
pany has completed their work.
Other towns can get ice in this
way cheaper than they- can put it
op unless they have equal facilities

lion. Dave Hanna was in towi

J. M. Pawnee dropped into our

THE DEMOCRAT. lie wants to
r ad the papers some so he will
know what is going on. He had
jusj-rrcturned - from Pine Ridge ,
where he went a few days ago tc
claim some land that his aunt hacl
owned prior to her death and Mr.
Pawnee was the sole heir of a sec
tion of land. Mr. Pawnee's grand
mother al.so left him a section of
land in Gregory county and he
has a quarter section near Wood ,
S. D. , where he lives and farms.
He is a full blood Sioux Indian and
has a pretty fair education and
good business knowledge to take
care of his property.
The weather bureau reported a
cold wave Monday evening for
Tuesday and when the thermom
eter went up above 50 Tuesday
morning people began to think of
warm weather , but about ten
o'clock the thermometer began to
drop and went down pretty fast
for several hours. The weather
bureau is pretty safe on their cold
wave forecasts generally and gives
us a chance to bar the doors and
windows agaist cold , gather a little
feed for stock and fuel for fires.
If the reports could be spread
broadcast among the stockmen
they would be of inestimable val
ue , but' the present government
regime seems to be more interest
ed in dreadnaughts and high tariff
wall.
Purcell's Comedy Co. .will play
the "Girl and the Sheriff , " Satur
day night , Jan. U , 1911. This is
a western comedy drama portray
ing a pretty story of the times
when the gold fever was raging in
the hills of Colorado , where every
class of society was represented in
a search for hidden wealth. The
principal scenes are layed in the
heart of the rookies and the beau
tiful valleys with which the conn-
try abounds ; a land where gold
was the ruling spirit , but where a
young and innocent girl was the
guardian angel. Special scenery
with-plenty of comedy and a few
tears , pleasing all classes , young
and old , rich and poor. Special
ties between acts , colossal and un
surpassed. Something doing all
the time. Every seat sold under
a positive guarantee. Valentine ,
Saturday evening , Jan. 14j 1911.
