Yankton had a glorious, big cele.
bration on last Saturday. There
must have been 5000 or 10000 peo-
pie in the city during the day, and
notwithstanding the extremely hot
weather, everybody seemed to enjoy
themselves and were well pleased
with the amusements provided for
the occasion and the handsome
treatment received at the hands of
Yankton people. Such, at least. was
the feeling Of a large delegation of
Elk Pointers who had the pleasure
of taking in the amusements there
o that day. This scribe had the
pleasure of meeting such old friends
as Geo. Kingsbury. Harry Wynn,
Cow Ziebach, VIM. Blatt. and 9TH
ers, all Of whom were active in en-
tertaining the throng Of the citv's
guests. We also take pleasure in
recording the fact that there is no
grass growing in the streets of Yank-
ton now-she is a booming and bus
thing city, and through the enter
prise of her citizens she is possessed
Of the "wonder of the world" in the
shape OF an artesian well. This well
was one Of the attraction to stran-
gers on Saturday, and it is truly
worth going a long ways to view.
The visitor is perfectly awed at see
ing a stream of water six inches in
diameter gushing from the bowels
of the earth with such tremendous
velocity. The flow from this six
is over 1900 gallons per minute and
you can readily imagine with what
great velocity it must gush forth.
The surplus water not used for the
waterworks, flows off down the hill
and makes a rapid running creek of
no small dimensions. Yankton e +
tainly has a bonanza in her ~artesian
well, and it is claimed that it eclips-
es anything of the kind in the Unit
ed States. The well is 6l2 feet deep
and the water coming out has a tenn
perature of perhaps so or 30 degrees
farenheit.

1t is but justice to the people of
Elk Point to say that the supposed
celebration here last Monday was not
a general celebration gotten up hy
the people of the town, but was
only a picnic gotten up by the Cath
Ollie society of the city to which all
were cordially invited. 1t was not
intended for anything more. We
are led to make this explanation be-
cause some people came to town
with the expectation ~ofseeing horse
races, baseball games, fireworks
and a big celebration generally, and
were inclined to censure the town
for not furnishing these amuse-
ments.

plant. He also feels confident that

as well. 1t is cheap, simple and
worth trying and not SO poisonous
as Paris green. Here is also a rem

eats away the main root OF cabbage

from about the stalk to the depth Of
a half inch and sprinkle Stacked
lime about and replace the dirt"
