Emmons County Record: On his way
to Bismarck, last week, w. S. Casselman
captured two young eagles that we're
about ready to fly. He took them to
town with him, and they bear captivity
very we'll, and are very tame. Perhaps
they are a couple of young Shanghai
BOOSTERS that went astray from some hon.
est granger's barnyard. About a dozen
years ago some one gave the Record
family a couple of young eagles" and
it took most of the editors time catch
ing gophers to feed 'em. But he didn't
bring in gophers fast enough, and so one
OF the "eagle" ate the other up-or down.
Then a neighbor who was strong on
o%rnithology came along and informed
us that the survivor was a hawk, and
wouldn't be an eagle if he lived a thou
sand years.
There was a big crowd present at the
Pioneers picnic, in Emmons county last
Saturday, the number in attendance be-
ing estimated all the way from 500 to
600. There were a few people present
from Kidder and Logan counties, and
about as many from Burleigh as from
Emmons. The day was perfect, the
warmth of t ,e SUMS rays being tempered
by the canopy of leaves and boughs that
the grove afforded. After dinner Lieut..
Gov. Worst spoke to the p~eople-many
of whom had been his friends for years.
He made comparisons between this and
other new countries, and asserted his be-
lief that the hard times had been less
severe in this section than in many others.
His words we're full of hope and cheer
for the settlers of a community whose
joys and sorrows he had experienced for
so many years.

Your editorial of Thursday regarding
the assassination of President Garfield
reminds me Of one certain Saturday
afternoon in Tionesta, Forest county,
Pennsylvania, a town in the numbering
region. Word came over the wires that
the president had been killed. All was
excitement and full particulars were
wanted: No Sunday trains ran on the
