mlBHloiior Dennett vlow with ImmoiiHu
HiitlHfnctlon such returns as Imvu boon
rocolvod huro looking < < > the opening
of the Indliin lands la Trlpp county ,
South Dakota.
This opening rneamt that about -1,000
farms oil 'HIO nrrcB each will full Into
the poHHosslon of whllo mnn for culti
vation. ' It IB fluid at llio general land
olllco Hint at lonil 11-1,000 people jour-
iioyod to I ho registration points at
Cliiunboflnln , Prosho , Gregory nml
Dalian , B. n. , nnd O'Neill and Vnlon-
line , Nob. , to participate In the draw-
liiK. The lands In Trlpp county about
to ho separated from the Rosebud In-
dlanu will bring $6 lior ucro In Its preti-
nil nnriiltlvatod condition. Tlicro
were < ; ,000 portions who wcro success-
full In the Trlpp county lottery nnd
each IB entitled to 100 acres of land.
Prior to the ttolcetlon of homesteads
nndor the original drawing the matter
of locating townsitcu nnd passing upon
such selections as the Htato oC South
Dakota may make for school purposes
must bo determined. This has not yet
boon done. Tlio Indian allotments Imvo
been iniulo. In fact , these allotments
wcro made before the opening , but
have not yet been made public , owing
to the fact that they have not been
approved by the secretary of. the In
terior. It is said at the goncrul land
ofllco that the towrisltca .will bo
marked out by Judge Wltteu before
tho-oloso of the current month , anil 11
Is expected that tho' state authorities
of South .Dakota will make their
wishes known as to school 'selections
at an early day.
It was said at Iho general land office
today that those who In the lottery
drew successful numbers cannot under
any clrcumslnncoB assign their draw
ings to another pnrson with the ex
ception of "old soldiers , " who may
have a duly legllzod proxy nned
with a power of attorney. If any per-
eon who has been successful In the
drawing does not appear ho will aim-
ply bo dropped out and the next named
called. The absentee , however , Is
given the privilege of an opportunity
at the close of business to appear and
take a shot at what may bo loft over ,
and , furthermore , if the successful
bolder In the lottery falls to appear at
all before the final coso of alloting
lie will forfeit all rights under Hie original -
inal drawing.
Another point which Is important to
those who were successful In the
drawings is that the government does
not provide a "locating agent" to as-
8.1st'them to stake out their farms.
After September 1 , 1909 , all undis
posed lands In the Tripp county openIng -
Ing will bo sold under the customary
homestead law at $2.50 per acre.

The Cost of Advertising.
The nnawako merchant often won
ders how some rival "can afford to
spend so much money for advertis-
Ing.1 Ho is sure that he could not
that it would bankrupt him in abort
order to "plunge" Into publicity on
the scale that the other fellow does.
"Tho other fellow" Is not worrying
about the "cost" of his advertising for
the simple reason that he doesn't have
to pay it. The competitor who cannot -
not "afford" to advertise really , in
effect , pays the bills of the man who
can "afford" it.
Ho pays them in the loss of busi
ness caused by his failure to adver
tise. The business ho ought to have
his "share" of the trade in his line
goes , in large part , to the competitor
who seeks it , who can afford to adver
tise for it. The profits on the trade
drawn away from the timid advertiser
by. the aggressive ono pays the lat-
tor's advertising bills and leaves a
comfortable surplus.
This is a fact which progressive
merchants are proving all the time
so It ought to have some personal
significance to the overcautious busi
ness men who are waiting to get rich
before "risking1/ adequate advertising
campaigns. '

Coroner Hoffman Home tinio In 'he
near future , and hear the voices of
murderers make their last denials o. "
detailed confessions after they have
paid the penalty for their misdeeds.
These voices of the dead are to be
come a portion of the county records ,
/rho / verbal statement of a man who is
dead seldom finds Its way Into courts
at present , except as repeated by an
other , but this Is one of the promises
of the new system.
Coroner Hoffman discovered all of
these possibilities when , a few days
ago , ho Installed a battery of phonographs
graphs to bo used with his steno
graphic force. The phonographs have
already been used In ono Important
case that of Mrs. Fannie Thompson ,
who was strangled In a Michigan avenue -

Long Row of Records.
There was a long row of the wax
cylinders , and each had Us own story
to tell. Some of them related to In
juries of men nnd women who bad
fallen from trains or street ears , some
of suicides , and others of the various
cases which reach the coroner.
In a corner of the room in which the
coroner preserves the voices sat a
young woman , whoso busy fingers
were transcribing the words of various
witnesses to paper for duplicate ,
which are kept just as the old ones
were.
The coroner brought this novel
means of taking testimony into play
first because of restrictions ns to ste
nographers which were placed upon
his ofllce by law. Originally the
deputy coroners were called to write
nil testimony out In long hand. Cor
oner Hoffman , however , convinced the
state legislature that this method was
Inadequate , and has obtained permis
sion to hire a stenographer. This
stenographer now Is aided by the rec
ords just as they are used in business
houses. The coroner believes they may
be of great use in court.
