works, nor any attempted limitations of
the Chicago derby in the horse racing
line, but there will be a nice, modest,
enjoyable little celebration. There will
be horse racing and foot racing and
bicycle racing and sack racing, Gun
club shooting, and all other kinds of
outdoor sports, during which young
America may howl and yell, and vent it's
superduous enthusiasm and patriotism
to as great an extent as may be desired.
Everyone favors the idea of a celebra-
ton like that of last year, to consist
principally of sports, and everyone mani

the affair, and there is no reason why
the celebration should not be as good as
that of last year.
DR.. Bentley was chosen chairman of
the meeting of citizens held at the city
hall Wednesday, and while the assembly
was not remarkable for numbers, the
push and the enthusiastic spirit was
manifest. There was a little prelimin-
airy discussion, in which it was decided
that no parade could be attempted be-
cause of the lateness of the day, and it
was finally resolved, as the desire of the
meeting, that the chairman appoint a
committee of five, to prepare a program,
Tx the amounts of prizes, whose actions
should be sanctioned by the gathering.
Accordingly A. N. Leslie, E. S. Allen,
j. D. Mcdonald, R. D. Hoskins and c.
A. Bentley were appointed as such COM
mittee, and empowered to act as they
saw fit in the preparation of a program.
The committee will probably meet to-
day and get to work. No definite pro.
gram has been yet prepared, but one
was briefly outlined last night, to consist
of a ladies' horse race, half mile; bicycle
race, sack race, wheelbarrcw race, foot
race, hose race, pony race, half mile, Gun
club shoot, free-for. all-race, half mile;
free.for. i .trial, half mile.
There is nothing final about this pro-
gram, however, and it will be changed at
the pleasure of the committee. The Fort
Yates club will no doubt come up to
take part in the ball game, and a tele.
gram requesting them to come was sent
last evening.
And now that all arrangements have
been made, push is all that is needed.
Let the eagle scream, the cannon roar,
the irecracker snap, the pinwheel sizz,
the Roman candle pop, the sky rocket
soar, the small boy howl, the banners
wave, the red lemonade flow, the horses
prance, the city council meet
Let us make it a season of jollity and
rejoicing, and let each one help out with
patriotic ardor.

Pretty Good Land Deals.

Register Falconer for filing. Campbell
has traded his land in Logan township
for California property, and gets about
SIS an acre for his farm here. The deeds
