resided with bis son on one of the H.

Last night was the coldest of the
season in point of temperature, out a
beautiful evening, with brilliant moon
light. not a breath of wind, and the
ground covered with snow. According
to Mgr. Flynn, who takes much inter
est in weather conditions, the mercury
sunk to 24 degrees oelow zero at mid
night when there was a change to
warmer, his theimometer indicating 18
below zero at 8 o'clock tais morning.
Today has been shaip and crisp, with
out wind, and outdoor work has been a
pleasure.
A full text of the retiring message of
Gov. Crawford will oe found on the
first and fourth pages of this issue. The
Daily Leader feels somewhat proud of
the fact that it is enabled to give this
message. Yesterday, we published the
message of Gov. Vessey and the day
previous the message of President
Roosevelt on the secret service. These
messages were all published in The
Daily Leader in advance of any other
paper received in Madison. Hence, we
aay,
we are proud of this stroke of en
terprise, and believe It will be fully
appreciated by our readers. The pro
ceedings of the legislature will be given
caieful attention by The Daily Leader
during the session, and iu addition a
weekly letter by Dnane Robinson will
ne published, giving legislative inci
dents at the capital.
Pres. E. A. Rippe of the Commer
cial club remarked to The Daily Leader
today that it nad been said that the
commercial club was a "penochal
club," and tbat the city needed «"push
club." Mr. Rippe said of course such
thing never ought to have leen pub
lished, as the commercial club has done
much for Madison uud will continue to
be the most prominent organization in
the city for years t3 come. There is
a feeling tbat other than members of
the club are not privileged to visit the
club rooms. This is not the case, said
Mr. Rippe. The rooms are open all
day and evening, and strangers in the
city, and farmers, would receive a
hearty welcome any time they desire to
call. The commercial club is a place
to entertain strangers and farmers, in
addition to furthering the commercial
interests of Madison.

WHITE PLAGUE
Sad Case of Death of Father
and Mother Leaving
Children
Rtanx falls, Jan. 5.—Tbe death of
both father and mother within forty
eight hours, leaving two chidren, one
two years and the jther six months old,
is a peculiarly sorrowful condition
which exists in Sioux Falls at the pre
sent time.
Saturday night at 10:80 Mr. I. Henry
passed away and at 2 o'clock this
morning he was followed by his wife.
I Both Mr. and Mrs. Henry were vie
tims of the white plague. They came
to Sioux Falls about two years ago in
hopes that the light and pure air of
this section would give them back
their health. Fur a time they were
benefited but tbe dieaded consumption
bad too strong a hold and refused to
yield even in this bracing atmosphere
Mr. Henry was for months a driver
of one of the Dakota laundry wagons
out some weeks ago he bad to give up
his employment and take to bis bed
He was shortly followed by his wife,
and they gradually grew worse until
the end came as announced above.
The former home of both Mr. and
Mrs. Henry was Toledo, O., where they
have relatives. The father of Mr.
Henry came to this city some time ago,
but on account of tbe serious illness of
his wife who had just suffeied a second
stroke of paralysis, ne was obliged to
leave Sioux Falls last Friday.
The taking of Mr. and Mrs. Henry
away so cltsely together leaves two lit
tle ones orphans and dependent upon
tne public. They will probably be
turned over to the Children's Home so
ciety for care until bo»«t orb be pro
Tided for them.

ing planned to supply hot coffee to go

anvuss among the business men of
tbe city to procure prizes for exhibits,
nd also necessary funds for the ex
pense of the institute. For this pur
pose the commercial cluo made an ap
propriation last evening of #50.
So far as the commercial club and
business men are concerned, it is their
purpose to make the institute a stem
winder. And it is now up to the farm
ers to bring in then exhibits, such as
corn, grains, vegetables,fruits, culinaiy
articles, fancy work, and everything
usually shown at a county fair, and do

tute, or uaid-winter fair, a grand

DIDN'T SUCCEED,
Girl's Novel Way of Settling
tike Fate of Three
Lovers
Denver, Jan. 5.—Because Annie Du
gan, eighteen years old, made use of
an ancient plan to determine which of
three suitors should become her hus
band, Andrew Yostow upon whom her
«.noice fell, refuses to take her. For
some time Yostow has been paying
court to Miss Dugan. But she would
not give him an answei, until finally,
several weeks ago, she told him that
she was going to have a birthday party
and if a certain thing happened she
could he bis wife. All their friends
were there. There was much giggling
as Annie drew forth three candles,
lignted them and placed them on a
board. Thn three of the boys all looked
glum. Finally one after another of
the candes burned out and only one
remained. Then Annie t.jnounced
that under each candle was the name
of a certain young man, and she
would marry the one whose name was
under tbe candle tnat burned the
longest. Andy 's candle had survived
them all. Yotsow did not see tne joke
and declared that he did not want to
oe herded together witn a lot of other
suitors. When tbe wedding ceremonies
were arianged he did not appear. Now
Annie has sued him and will try to
force the wedding.
