Speaking of the item going the
rounds in regard to the transfer of
Bishop Marty from this diocese to that
of st. Cloud, Mimi, Dean Sheehan in
forms the Herald that there has been
no official PRONUNCIATION of the change
yet, though there may he one at no very
distant day.
A large number of L. w. Murphys
friends went to bis residence south of
town Monday evening and took him by
surprise and informed him that they
had come to assist him in celebrating
the 49th anniversary of his birthday.
1t is needless to say that the evening
was one of enjoyment for all.
Tuesdays weather reminded the
writer of that in Yankton on Jan. |,
1871, upon which day he was Il member
of a good sized party, with Father
Turner at its head, who went the
rounds of the city making New Years
calls. Yankton's hospitality was i'm
mense in those days, and on such occas-
ions a jolly crowd was sure to be found
<>f NaY,
Gen. Trlpp. MAJ. Stone and others.
The calling party on that day were at
tired in white hats of various designs.
Last week Wm. Liddicot found a
young hog which had been lost from
his drove for about six weeks. The
said hog was at the bottom of an old
unused well which was about four feet
deep and located some distance away
from the house. 1t is supposed that
the hole was filled with thistles, corn
husks, ETC., which hau caused his hog
ship to venture therein. When found,
however, everything was cleaned out.
The meat was rather thin OF the bones,
and he struck for home and feed.
Now that the long winter evenings
are at hand it is a good time to arrange
for a system of reading, that the time
may be passed both pleasantly and pros
6tably. One important feature of the
program will be the selection of the
best Qbtaipable newspapers, for of
course everyone will want to be posted
on the happenings of the day. To
meet this demand the manager of this
paper has arranged to furnish that
greatest of all great metropolitan
newspapers. the Chicago Weekly Inter-
Ocean, and the Turner County Herald
for $1.5O.
Prof. Wheaton, who talks on dairy
ing at the Institute next Tuesday even
ing is an enthusiast on that subject
and a believer in the doctrine that the
farmers OF South Dakota will begin to
see more prosperous times as soon as
they embark intelligently into that
branch of farming. He will have with
him small separator and a Babcock
tester and give practical Illustrations
of their working. A creamery with
the separator process is one of the
things which should be established In
Hurley this spring and we hope the
farmers will talk the matter over dur
ing the institute and see if arrange
ments cannot be made for an early
start in that direction.
