Mavericks Lose Buffalo by Lightning in Philip Pasture
A lightning storm last Monday night killed two buffalo in the Philip pasture near Fort Pierre. The Rapid City Journal reports a heist where four men ran away with twenty two dollars from the Yankee Robinson circus, a bold stunt noted by the Quinn Courant. Aberdeen Normal School Professor Smith and party, including Lily Bengston and students, arrived to study the Bad Lands around Sheep Mountain, while plans for a new museum promise regional geological samples. Hugh Jeffries and W L Gerow plan a concrete flood-control barrier on Bud River to aid irrigation, predicted to alter stream appearance. Hume, Hutton, and Manley Champ lin visited the Brookings experimental farm to discuss crop handling, a missed opportunity for many local farmers.

Would Extend Wills Road Deadwood Plan for Sundance link
Timber man W J McLaughlin and H W Track of Kewanee NL are backing a plan to extend the McLaughlin Tie and Timber Co line from the Wyoming South Dakota line to Sundance Wyoming at an estimated cost of 1 181 000. The project would be financed by stock sales in the Black Hills east and would connect Sun dance to Rapid City with a standard gauge and rail links to the east, bringing Wyoming oil coal and farming regions access to Rapid City and the Burlington Milwaukee and Northwestern lines. Sundance will provide a right of way and 60 000 in cash bond as support, with local interest high. The plan joins multiple proposals to extend trunk lines into Wyoming and would boost livelihoods in the Black Hills and surrounding areas.
