Four Young Ladies' OF Yankton Col
lege Entertain an Andience-The Sac-
~calaureate Sermon.
The second meeting for prize decla-
nations by the students of Yankson col
lege occurred on Saturday evening,
VIXEN four of the charming young ladies
OF the college contested for the prizes
offered by some benevolent unknown"
OF the Congregational church. AS on
Fridsy evening, the church was laden
with wzapt attention and the perfume
of beautiful flowers. The audience did
wonders towards encouraging the young
lady speakers, in being prompt on hand,
very quiet during the recitstions and
very substantial in applause.
Geo. Il. Hand, Rev. D. F. Bradley and
Miss Ellen Haskell formed . body o!
able judges ard their award of the
prizes pleased everybody immensely.
The speakers were Miss Douglas, of
Faulkton, Miss Dawson, of Yankton,
Miss Russell, of Alexandria, and Miss
Tweedy, Of Blyville, Nebrssks, aa6 in
that order they appeared on the pro-
gramme.
Miss Douglas reoited LowelIs
"Yision OF Sir Lannfal,"a very inter
esting epic, which must have required
considerable study upon the part OF
MISS Douglas to express it as she did.
Miss Dawson reoited Adelaide Proc
tors story OF the heroic Tyrol peasant
girl who saved Bregenz in an hour OF
peril. The piece was entitled "The
Legend of B~regenz," and under Miss
Dawson's apt and attractive way OF tell.
ing it, the story was very entertaining
Will Uarleton's First Settlers Story
was told in a spirited and expressive
manner by Miss Russell, who seemed
to properly interpret the authors lines
Miss Tweedy recited Mrs. Hemans
"Benardio del Carpio," with zeal end
effect, end her recitation was a fitting
close for q very interesting programme
The judges deliberated diligently, do.
ing duty both as iadge1 and awarders Of
prizes with composure and many compli'
ments to the speakers. -Four piizes were
awarded. Miss Dawson receiving the first
Miss Russell the second, Miss Douglas
the third and Miss Tweedy tbs fourth,
As on the previous evening the prize
was doubled by some Yankton man, and
the young ladies were pleasantly sur.
prised thereat.
THE BA-CCALAUREATE SERMON.
President Ward, of the college
preached the annual baccalaureate ser
mon at the Congregational church last
evening to q large audience of students
and citizens. His text was taken from
the fourth chapter of Exodus, the sec
ond verse, which is: "And The LORD
said unto him, what is in thine hand
And he said; A rod" The sermon wae
a beautiful expression of the ideas Of
DIR. WarS on all thoughts, as the tex
might suggest, which would be Of inter
est to students and was one of the ables
efforts that DR.. Ward has been heard tc
deliver in this city. The sermon will ap
pear in print at On early day. 1t Wal
greatly appreciated.

sTalk about your needle stories, =
said man on the street yesterday,
shut I can tell You one that dis
counts them all, and I don't have
to go far from home for the facts
either MY wifes sister a young
lady about nineteen, has apet need
le. She wouldn't do without it for
the world About three years ago
the needle made tssfirst appearance
by sticking its point out of her
shoulder. How it ever got into her.
body, or how long it had beensthere,
shesays she doesn know. 1t tdidn't
come far enough for any one to
get hold of it, but went back in,
and in about month it stuck its
nose out away down on her right
ankle. Then it disappeared again,
and it has been eeooting around in
side of her system aver since, polk
ing its point out about every month
somewhere or other. She had it
pulled out once with a pair of nip
pers, and, you may not believe it,
but it is a fact, she became almost
alarmingly ill with sort of nervous
prostration that the doctors couldn't
make anything of
!"ono day an irresistible IMPULSE
seized her, as she says, to get that
needle and jab it into herself She
did SO, and she felt much better in
stantly. The needle has been on
its travels without interruption ever
since, and she has had perfect
health. She couldn't be persuaded
now to have it taken out. About a
year ago the needle made it's ar-
pearance at her left wrist, and the
location of both ends of it were
clearly discernible. By way of
amusement, l suppose, she man
aged to get at the head of her pet,
and slipped a little piece of fine
bright red silk through the eye, and
now the needle is carrying that all
over her system, and once in while
it is discernible beneath the skin.
When the noodle was out it was
strongly magnetized Yes, it's a
very queer case, and 1 don't pretend
to explain it, but know the story is

The War Tarifr HOWL.

What howl of despair has gone
up from the Republican organs over
the country because Knute Nelson
of Minnesota was man enough to
stand up and denounce the ruinous
policy of taxation of the party of
which he is a memberl How they
have squirmed and shrieked and
protestedl How they have wrig-
gled and turned and sought to find
hard things to say of this frank and
outspoken man who has had the
courage and the manliness to point
out the danger to the country and
to the party.
Mr.. Nelson did not speak unad-
visedly, nor did the Providence
journal, that staunch supporter of
Republican principles, endorse him
hastily, when it commended his ac-
ton and in vigorous language call
ed upon the pliers up of the surplus
to halt and listen to the demand of
the people for tariff reform.
1t is significant to note the popu-
lar demand for reduction of tax
alton, made as it is by the very
newspapers that year ago were
shrieking for protection to Ameri-
can industry"
These thermometers of public
opinion have rightly gauged the
temper of the public. They see
that tariff revision is the demand
of the hour and they hasten to get
on the right side. When will the
ultra howlers for war taxes have
sense enough to come in out of the
wet2-N Y. Graphic.

The American army

Al correspondent asks for brief
account of the "British Seare,''
when two little girls, daughters of
the lighthouse-keepe at Scituate,
Mass. drove away two of the enc
my's barges. The girls, who ever
afterward called themselves aFhe
American Army of Two in the war
of1sl2," were Rebecca and Abbiel
Bates, aged at the time of the Incl
dent respectively 10 and II years.
When the war broke out the har-.
Dor of scituate was the scene of
many a sea skirmish. Shortly af-
ter the British burned large num-
Der of vessels which lay in Scituate
harbor, after which the town was
garrisoned. About Sept, L, 1914, a
British bark was sighted directly
off Cedar Point, from which two
barges were lowered and were bear
ing down upon the harbor, with the
intention of sacking and destroy
ing two large four-laden vessels.
The mother of Rebecca becoming
somewhat alarmed, the men being
away on an expedition, appealed to
her daughter for aid, whereupon
Rebecca, with fife and her sister
Abbie with drum, concealed them
selves behind the house and struck
up national air. The effect was
magical. The careless, swinging
stroke of the bargemen's oars ceas-
ed as across the water to their lis
tening ears came the roll call of the
formidable and much dreaded Yam
KEGS. They hesitated a moment,
and then, just as the bark flew her
signal of danger, they downed oars,
and with most unman-of-war-like
stroke exerted themselves to reach
their vessel. 1t was but the silence
Of a moment when the sails filed,
and with Yankee Doodle ringing in
their imaginative ears, the Britisher
squared away to sea.

q
The New York o0mmerctatsad-
rertiser, staunch Republican paper
puts it this way:
The existing tariff secures wealth,
power and a perpetual supply of
ever cheapening labor to the privt-
legged class in whose interest its re-
form is opposed; to all others it
works harm. 1t protects monopo-
lies; it does precisely the reverse for
industry. The remedy is to reform
it, and yet the exceedingly moderate
compromise measure of reform now
pending in Congress, is denounced
by the organs and representatives
of the privileged class, and work
ingmen are urged to oppose it, upon
the false plea that it in some way
threathens the prosperity of Ameri-
can industry. The fact is gradu-
ally becoming clear to men of ali
classes, however; that it is not in
dustry, but monopoly, that is pro-
tected by the present tariff, and
that the only way in which tho
prosperity of the country can be
properly and fairly distributed
among all people, is by the reform
of the tariff upon some such lines as
those marked ont by the President
in his latest annual message.

It is said that of the numerous
BufaIo's that once roamed the
Plains, there are only boutseventy-
five to one hundred that remain.
An organization has lately been
formed for the preservation of the
bison family. A party to consist of
a famous Scout, six cowboys and a
representative of the Chicago Times
will undertake to ground up" and
capture the remaining BuffaIos, in
order that typical American animal
may be preserved. Carrier Pigeons
are to be used by the Times repre-
sentative to convey information to
his enterprising journal concerning
the progress of the hunt.
