g The first hot wind that Dakota has ex-
perienced for three years, was blowing

tor stood at 118 in the shade at five

A friendly game Of baseball may take
place soon between mines from Dickin-
son and Aiedora. Either town can well
afford to pay the opposing mines ex-
y penses for a game. our baseball mat
erial is very limited, but we could at
least have some enjoyment out Of the
game. E
ne regret to say that we have again
been misled by rumor into pub
fishing a notice Of a marriage that has
not taken place. Miss Jennie Morton of
South Heart, was the victim of. the rumor
this time and as we have the same power
of diYorcing that we have Of marrying,
we declare the banns to be. broken. a..
The Wells Fargo Express Co. has stor-
ped business on the Northern Pacific,
owing to q decision Of a Portland Judge
4 that one common carrier is not compelled
\ to carry goods for another common car
rier. This decision Of course did not
affect the whole line, but as goods could
not be carried over part Of the road,
the express company was compelled to
refuse all business. e. 5. s
We have an oyer-stock of 81 Stude-
baker wagons that the. Studebaker Mfg.
Co. have instructed US to close out at $75
I each. These wagons have never turned
q wheel under q load, are new and first
class IN every respect. have the Cos. full
guarantee for {, 600 pounds, according to
old Teighters are the best ironed and
easiest running wagon Of its size in the
/ World, and cost at the factory, $s7 each
lin car lots. There never has been and
never will be again such q bargain in
\. wagons in This country. The S75 rate is
rash of course and holds good for one or
I more. For further particulars, call at
br address the Cow Boy office.
The celebration at Dickinson last Mon
y day was far more Of q success than even
the most enthusiastic hoped. Except
Tor 9 strong wind, the day was 4 perfect
one. "a procession, consisting Of the
usual number Of riders, both ladies and
gentlemen, and band, a wagon load Of
goddesses Of liberty and a large number
ssof wagons and carriages formed at $50.
4 Proceeding to the grand stand at the
northern edge Of town, several selections
were played by the band, America" was
sung and the Declaration Of Independ-
i; ence WIS read by 1 W estern Starr. An
adjournment for dinnor then took place,
after which nearly Eve hundred people
L assembled at the grand stand to hear
speeches from .. "A. 3Rea and Theodore
Roosevelt. Mr.. ReaWas the first speaker.
and put Tie: audience into good hhmor
both by his patriotic ntterances and
quaint anecdotes. Mr. Roosevelt follow
! ed with an able discussion on the duties
sof American citizenship. It was for
cible presentment Of high aims a citizen
Of the United States should keep before
him and lacked entirely that spread
eagle oratory, with which the speaker
said he synpathized deeply. Mr. Roose-
yelt is essential q disputant. He gets
right at the meat q his subject and in
plain, we'll ehosen words, presents his
side Of the case In d way that commands
attention and wins converts. After the. 4
speeches, an ed iournment took place to
/ the race TRACK, where the first event was
I 4 pony race, Joe Met oups Blue Jay being
