DELL RAPIDS uo,ncs.
Celebrating the Fourth-A severe storm,
With Bad Results.

Correspondence Press AMI Dakotaian.
DELL RAPIDS, OAK, July llth, 1878.
Several causes,-among which may be
mentioned the GLORIOUS Fourth" and un-
usually busy times,-havc prevented our
coming to time with our regular batch the
last two weeks. But here we are again.
1t is probably in order to tell what Dell
Rapids did on the Fourth. A celebration
was held, in what is known as the "dry
dclls"-a place which nature seems to have
prepared expressly for use on such occas.
ions.-which was presided over by Mr.. w.
II. McCunc. The procession was formed
at the school house and conducted 10 the
grounds In first class style by the marshal
Of the day, Dr.. W. e Barker. B. D. Graves
and several others undtr his leadership, fur.
nishcd vocal and instrumental music, Rev.
G. S. Coding'on, ofliciatcd as chaplain, the
Declaration Of Independence Was read in
very acceptable manner martial music was
furnished by G. S. and b. d. Gravcs, Ben
and John Pullman, and David Ross,-and
Albion Thore, Esq, Grated very ably. In
disposing of basket pic mic dinner, all per
sons present, did their duty in manner en-
tircly satisfactory to everybody. After the
dinner all hands returned to the village to
witness parade, on Main ST., of the Tat.
terdemallion Fraternity" and to listen to a
speech by the venerable head of SAID frater-
nifty. After these exercises closed all hands
repaired 10 the base ball grounds on Mr..
Metcalf's place east of town, and witnessed
a match game Of ball between the Brook.
field and Dell Rapids clubs, in which the
Rapids boys came off second best. There
were also horse races and pony races. In
the evening dance. which lasted until day.
light next morning. In enumerating the
events Of the Fourth we must not omit 10
mention ore which caused Z. G. Whalen to
wear the happiest smile of all the crowd, !,
c. the advent of bouncing boy, who arri.
we'd in town early in the morning so as not
to miss any of the interesting events of the
day we celebrate. That certainly should be
patriotic boy, and we doubt not each re-
curing Fourth of July will be doubly celc-
brated by the family thus made happy.
Last night we had heavy storm of rain,
accompanied by plenty of lightning and
considerable wind. This morning we hear
the report of the killing of two head of
stock at Mr.. Thomas Thompsons place, six
miles west Of town, also, that some grain is
lodged But doubtless the benefit from the
rain will largely overbalance the damage
done,
The heat TO- day is we think greater than
any preceding day this season.

formed with free hand. and it is most in
teresting and curious to watch the dexter

afterward united. In fact, almost all the
fancy work is done by hand, ploddingy
and painfully, and often in a sitting at

lump of kneeded clay, very much like
piece of dough at her side. Near her are
a few little knives. a syringe for squirting

used by pastry cooks. BY the aid OF these
simple tools, series OF china flowers OF

usually made by women. The process is
truly marvellous, requiring no end OF pa

A potot liquid clay-paste and a small steel

work. With these she tedlously spends
her time, dipping the style iuto the pot and
letting tiny drop fall upon given spot
then another, and so on. drop by drop,
each of which sounded almost instantly
in The dry. choking atmosphere OF the
