Brock will repre sent Watertown at the railroad meeting at Madison on the 10th inst., to organize a subsidiary company to construct a line from Hankinson to Yankton. Our peo ple are very much enthnsed on the sub ject, as intelligence has come of the quiet organization of a similar company in Nebraska to take up the line in Yankton and carry it across that state. Speaking of the new Soo railroad line, the Arlington Sun of the 6th says: Ar lington being on an air line between Watertown and Madison will if this road is ever built be practically sure to get it, find a meeting was held last, Wednesday evening and A. D. Maxwell was elected a delegate to attend the meeting called at Madison. While some, insist that a Dross road would be a damage to the town, we fail to see the force of their «rgu ments, and believe that no efforts should be spared towards securing it if possible. This road if built on the pro posed route will pass through the very best portions of Codington, Hamlim, Kingsbury and Lake counties and it must be oonceeded these are among the very best counties of tne state. (It would certainly be a paying route and we see no reason why we may not rsa jsonably expect it to be built and in ^operation in the near future.

Depend on it^it will be EARTHQUAKE'S SHOCK. i Vibration and Boar Which Woke up and Terrified a Great Many Peo jjlt—Hot the Day of Judgment At 5:20 o'clook this morning according to THE DAILY LEADER reporter's clock, Madison experienced a violent shaking accompanied by a roar, dull yet loud as thunder and reverberating away in the distance, and the sound appeared to fol low the receding vibrations of earth. We had been touched by the shock of an earthquake and many of the more tim orous made an earlier and hastier toilet than usual. Light sleepers were awakened with a suddeness that be wildered them, sound sleepers failed to grasp the situation only as a dream, and only those conscious of what had really happened were those fully awake and who could discern the difference be tween a bouse shaken by eleotric explo sion and one shaken by the deep heav ing of the earth. The whole tremor did not last over fifteen to twenty second*, though the intonations of the rumbling seemed much longer. The seismic wave was vertical in character but longitudinal in direction, passing from the southwest to the northeast, and at the center of motion was quite intense. Buildings quivered like aspen leaves, and the sensations caused thoee of a nervous temperament were quite harassing until their fears were allayed by a prolonged subsidence of the vibra tions. A whitish misty atmosphere hung over the troubled earth for some time after the shock. Excited groups of people met on the street corners this morning and discussed the terrestrial phenomenon. It was something new in this region and people are at a loss to know how to take it. The shock was felt at Howard, 26 miles distant, and people living in the coubtry several miles from the city felt it as die tinclly, if not even more so, than those in this place. Much interest is manl fested is the event aa to its extent, prob able severity in some other place, and probable recurrence at this point. It is not generally known that Dakota is sub jeet to seismic movements, but if all are as well defined as the one this morning and we have plenty of them, they will soon be diagrammed on charts.

D, Saturday, May 4,1808, aged 39 yean. The above was born at Broadhead Wis., where she spent her life, until her marriage in January, 1892, with Allen B. Hurlburt. Her short life has been fragrant with self sacrifices. Fitted for teaching, after one term, she cheerfully gave up her choseu occupation, on the death of a sister, to care for her aged parents. Her father died May, 1890. On her marriage, her mother lived with a son. Three weeks ago, she too, passed away, so soon to be followed by the daughter. She and husband were both baptized last fall and joined the church Her work is done. "One by one earth's ties are broken, As we see our love decay, And the hopes so fondly oherislpd. Brighten but to pass away. One by one our hopes grow brighter, As we near the shining shore, For we know across the river, Wait the loved ones gone before." Her loved pastor, Rev. G. W. Elliott, was absent in Chicago, and the funeral services were conducted by Rev. A, C. Blaokman, of Madison. l^or (Sale or Kcat A good new seven room residence Apply to CHARLES GLATZ.

Over fifty children made the Wentwortfi hall ring with mirth and music. The patrons furnished a supper that would suit the taste of any one. The evening will long be remembered as one of pleasure and profit. Mrs Elhoff and Miss Glattlie made a grand success of a reoeption for Mr and Mrs Tim Mahoney last Friday evening. Every one present pronounced it a most delightful meeting. Mr and Mrs Ma honey will go to housekeeping in George Blrrin's house. Frank Merssman has returned from a visit at Pipestone. A oab line has been setablished from Cousin's hotel, connecting with all trains going northward, southward, eastward, heavenward, etc. Mrs and Mr Frank Soott and daugh- ter, Maud, came down from Madison to: attend the May party. Misses Bertha Marx and lizzie Jones, of Madison, attended the May party and visited friends in town Monday. Mrs Wm Jones and daughter, Martha, start for a visit in Montana and Oregon with a brother and sister of Mrs Jones. Miss Carr, of Woonsocket, will join them on their pleasure trip. The golden wedding of Mr and Mrs Henry Theiss took place at the Lutheran church the 7th inst, Rev Kuntz perform ing the ceremony. A large number of the friends of this worthy oouple went out to their pleasant home southeast of town where a most enjoyable afternooft was spent. Oh yes.

At the present time the eyes of the bottle making world are turned toward New Jersey, D-PRICE'S Their glance centers U]xu Woodbury, for in that quite village the destiny of the bottle blower may be said to be on trial. The Ashley bottle mak* ing machine has been set in operation to see if it cannot do the work of human hands and lungs and do it better and more economically. The machine was described before the British association in 1889, when it was stated that bottles had been made by the machine, quite complete, which had successfully been subjected to an internal pressure of 300 pounds to the square inch. The career of the machine in England, we believe, has been most unfortunate, but this doet not at all diminish the interest which its introduction into America has excited. The advantages to be gained by the use of such a machine are much too solid to permit small obstacles to hinder its success. The trial run at Woodbury has been fairly successful. The auto matic principle has not been developed to the full extent in these machines, but it has been carried so far that one man and three boys—none of them necessarily skilled glassblowers—can operate two machines, each of which is capable of turning out two bottles a minute.—Pro fessor C. H. Henderson in Popular Sci ence Monthly. Last of ttie Trulls. We regret to announce the death of the Mgh priest of the sun at the ripe age of 92. To the eye of faith he was the last of the Druids. The profane knew him only as Dr. William Price of Llan trissant, in Glamorganshire, and charac terized him as "a moat eccentric man." It must be kdmitted that they were not 'altogether without excuse for this opin ion. He itempted to imitate the pontif ical raiment of his predecessors in the priesthood, wearing a whole foxskin on his head, a light ^reen coat with trousers to match and a scarlet waistcoat. As a rt ^nuiuctiou of Drnidic costume the protbii.e luay perhaps be a, un ex cused for tliinkin this a little uncon vincing. Even hiyh prissts of the sun are not v.ithont human weaknesses, and Dr. Price signalized this truth at the age of 81 by marrying his housekeeper, a girl of 11). One must allow that this step is a touch of prose in such a character, but he redeems! it shortly afterward by attempiiiij? to tmrn the body of his dead child on a funeral pyre which he erected in a neighboring field. The Druid could hardly take account of the constable.— Pall Mall Budget. Coincidence In Death. It is singular fact that three noted men have died within u few weeks of each other, whose names are inseparably connected with one of the most exciting episodes in congress, when John Young Brown was censured for havingN given free rein to his tongue in defining what he conceived to be Butlerism. General Butler, iu a characteristic speech, de manded that Brown )e punished. Mr. Lamar opposed the motiorf in quite as vigorous speech and Mr. Blaine, who was then the speaker, was called upon to administer the censure, which he did in such a low tone tliat nobody could hear him, out of consideration for the feelings of the disgraced member.—Bos ton Herald. Spontaneous Combustion In the Mall*. Spaulding & Co., the State street jew elers, received yesterday the remains of a package sent out last December. At that time it contained a solid silver fili gree comb with celluloid teeth. There had been a miniature conflagration in the box, evidently caused by spontane ous combustion. The edges of the box were charred, there was some burned cotton, a piece of tarnished silver, but no comb. The only explanation offered is that the box must have been placed too near the stove.—Chicago Tribune. A IfoMa Indorsement. Governor and Mrs. McKinley set a noble example of honesty and integrity to the world. The good wife was not an indorser upon the fatal paper, but she indorses her husband's honor and man hood. Such an example in these days is worth millions in money.—Chicago Inter Ocean, v.
