and twenty minutes, which, considering
the condition of the track, is extraordi.
narily good.
The racetrack is being rapidly placed
in condition for the coming races. Tie
sides are being cut, the track leveled,
and as soon as the rougher portion Of the
work is completed, it will be rolled and
smoothed down. A large force of men
has been engaged for the past few days,
in the work, and the track, when com
pleted will be in excellent condition.
The penitentiary has a new warden.
He arrived at about train time Monday
morning. He weighs about nine pounds,
and his urname is identical with that
of. the present warden, although his
christian name has not yet been decided
upon. Clark Haggart years a broad
smile and cigars aud congratulations
have been in order ever since the success
of the event was assured.
The people of the city evidently be-
lieve in taking advantage of delightful
weather, in enjoying themselves. The
streets and pleasant drives in and ad-
jacent to the city were lined with stylish
turnouts, Sunday, and the day was a
day of unalloyed enjoyment to those
who believe in one day of pleasure dur
ing the week. Bismarck can and does
turn out some fine looking rigs
Capt. Joe Hare, in Fargo Forum: I
am not one who believes in making
overtures to a lot of cranks. I am a
democrat and believe in our organlza-
ton, that is stronger to-day than ever.
I admire a fighting republican, but don't
want any coalition with cranks. I came
down from Bismarck to attend the G. A.
R., and have a good time and go from
here to Chicago for Cleveland.
It was unofficially announced the other
evening, that the race track had been
undergoing repairs and that some of the
blooded horses had been given a whirl
around it. AS near as could be learned,
400 was the best time made, but this, of
course, is not known to be exact. It is
said, though, that by the time the Fourth
comes around, some of those $3.50"
horses. will be in the less than ESQ list.
The bull, who caused such a conster-
nation on Main street, for awhile, dis
played himself as being most certainly
in that lamentable condition, known as
ION the prod" and cavorted around the
streets with a ~recklessness and generally
graceful agility as would have excited
admiration in the mind of a Spanish
bull fighter. He was finally captured
and subdued, however, and placed in
"durance vile"
Manager Falconer has written to the
manager of the jamestown base ball
club, in an endeavor to arrange a game
for the Fourth. A proposition has been
made to guarantee the jamestown club
1926, the game to be played for a side
purse of the same amount, making $50
for the club if they win, but as the dis
tance is great and the expenses are neces-
sari]y heavy, the arrangement Of a game
with them is doubtful.
The Kickapoo Indian Medicine COM
pany has folded it's tent and stolen away.
For two weeks have the "'ki-yis" of the
dusky warrior, the comic sayings of the
general utility man and the magical per-
formances of the professor interested the
people. The tall doctor will no longer
dilate upon the merits of the "Sagwa'
and the voices of the redmen are silent
and still. For the next two weeks they
will cure all ailments in Mandan.
It is said there was an interesting
scene in the county auditors Office Tues
day morning. There was to be a
meeting Of the commissioners, but Mr..
Healy remarked that he couldn't stay as
he had to get out to "do up that man
Perkins," Attorney Register and Com
missioner Cahall had nothing to do but to
leave, and Cahall remarked: "Ill have
something to do with politics myself"
He did. His precinct came in-Perkins

Washburn Leader: Having left Bis
marck because of the fear he had of
"blind pigs" running at large in the city,
Joe KATE came up to Mclean county
and moved on to his farm; but 10! and
behold, he found a "blind pig" in the
midst of his own herd. He went before
Justice G. to ascertain what the law re-
CURED him to do with it, and wal in
structed to fatten the animal and take
good care of it. Joe thinks it must have
strayed from the capital city after he
left, and desires the Leader to inquire
if the authorities of that city have lost
and eyeless swine?"

to two years and a half in the peniten-
tiary, and who were brought to the city
