Driving along a 'country ' road nnd Into n puddle of muddy water because there was no way out of It , two Nor folk young women wore ( oft suddenly In a sad plight because the horse stopped still , refused to budge and could not be whipped for fear ho might kick his feet and thus splash the mud all ever the party gowns of the fair drivers. Miss Maude Tannohlll and Miss Olonnlo Evans wore driving home from a dancing party nt Wnrnorvlllo. The night was moonlit. The horse started through a pool In the high way and suddenly halted abruptly. Kind words failed to start the ani mal. A whip would have caused n kick nnd bad spattering.

MAY BE DONE IN SIXTY DAYS Commissioner Richards Tells of the Method by Which One Wishing to Relinquish May Do So Have to Hold Land for Next Two Months. With 2,000 names down In the Rosebud lottery , the question of re llnqiilshlng Is now a live one , says a Chamberlain dispatch. A large proportion of those who have been successful In Uncle Sam's great game of chance have no Intention of filing and living on the lands they have drawn. They simply took a chance In the game. W. A. Richards , commissioner of the general land ofllce , this afternoon told how rellnqulshments may be made. "Oh , yes , " said the commlsloner , "a man may relinquish , but he will have to hold his land for sixty days. What will he have to do In that time ? Nothing , but file and pay the govern ment price which Is required at the time of filing , namely , $1 an acre. During the sixty days Intervening , If he relinquishes the lands cannot be disposed of except under the condi tions of the lottery. That Is , If lie relinquishes within that time some man who has drawn a number may Hie on the claim , but none other. At the end of the sixty days he may re linquish , and of course , some one else may file on It Immediately. " The commlsloner was not willing to make any suggestions as to how this should be done , but the method will be for the person who has relin quished for a consideration to se cretly go to the land office with the person in whose favor he proposes to relinquish and that person will file Immediately. "An old soldier , " continued the com missioner , "may Hie through the agent who registered him , upon a payment of | 2 and the filing of a declaratory .statement. If he flies In this way any person may file on the same land and the conditional filing will get the land. " Should Get Rid of Agents. "In this connection , " said the com- mlsioner , "I would advise that old soldiers get rid of their agents and make a regular entry In person , then , If they wish to relinquish , they may do so. For example , the man drawing the first number would better get rid of his agent at once and make his entry in person. " There Is confusion about the man who drew the flrst dumber. He was registered through a locating agent from Washington named Herrlck. Herrlck is afraid other agents will get to him , and Is busily engaged in concealing his address. He flrst gave It as Pennsylvania and later gave It as Nebraska , frankly acknowl edging he feared the wiles of other locating agents. Commisloner Richards further ex plained that the price of the land , now $4 an acre , will remain so If the land Is filed on as a result of the drawing. After ninety days land not Hied on in the Rosebud will be 13.50 an acre. After the second period of ninety days It will be | 2.50 an acre , but the price will remain fixed If It Is not filed on or bought from the government during these periods. The commissioner said today that the townslte proposition was being left with Washington , and that he knew nothing about it and that no announcement would be made until just before the filing. MISS BOTSFORD , NO. 26. Only Person in Madison County to Draw a Claim Within 100. The only Madison county person to draw out within the flrst 100 names at Chamberlain , was a young woman at Tllden. Miss Anna Botsford , daughter of Howard Botsford , formerly - erly a commissioner In this county. Miss Botsford has been dining room girl In the hotel at Tllden for some time past. Her father owns forty acres of land near that place and her friends are all glad for her that the opportune homestead has come into her possession. Her claim Is esti mated as worth $4,000.
