this city, Sunday, October %, Rev. f..
/. Davies officiating. Both Mr.. and

ing congratulations and wishing the
happy young couple every happiness.
The select party and reception given
at the G. A. r. Hall on Friday even.
ing by Miss Una Milne was attended
by forty couple and those present re-
port a most enjoyable time. Prof.
Duden's orchestra furnished fine
music. At eleven o'clock G. C. Barr
served lunch, which was partaken of
and highly appreciated. Now that
Miss Milne has been so successful
with this feature of sOciability among
the young people no doubt she will be
requested to repeat the same at inter-
yals during the coming winter.
p. }. Hegeman, one Of Brookings
county's best and jolliest citizens, was
among us Wednesday making our lives
worth the living. BY the way Hege-
& Parsons, the glove and mitten man
ufacturers of Brookings, are right in
the swim this season. They are put

lots of it. They stand ready to fill all
orders for fur goods for ladies and
gents wear: also make a speciality of
refining clOaks, coats and muffs. When
you want something that's chic, give
these gentlemen your order .-Elkton

Gov. Lee and Judge Kennedy spoke
to large audience in this city last
evening, the hall being filled to the
doors. Their addresses were listened
to with marked attention and much
enthusiasm prevailed. The audience
was held for three hours and not to ex-
ceed dozen people left the hall be-
fore the meeting closed. Both gen.
tlemen spoke almost entirely on state
issues which are of vital Importance
to our people. The audience was in
marked contrast to the one which
greeted Kirk Phillips in the same hall
a few weeks ago. Mr.. Phillips re-
ception was very frosty one and the
hall was about half filed Last night
Gov. Lee was warmly greeted by both
republicans and populists and he may
well feel proud of his reception con-
sidering that his coming had not been
very we'll advertised.
The college foot ball team covered
itself all over with glory on Saturday
afternoon at which time they met
and defeated the Watertown eleven.
The REGISTER, being unfamiliar
with the game, is not able to give a
detailed report, but SO far as our OBJ
servation goes, the local eleven put
up good game and were strictly sin
it, from start to finish. In the last
half two lighter men were substituted
for Anderson and Tree, but there was
no perceptible difference in results.
The college boys would get the ball
and keep it until they had scored a
touch down. Although the Water
town eleven contested every foot Of
ground, it could be seen even by the
uninitiated that they were out
classed. The Watertown boys were
quiet and gentlemanly and took their
defeat good naturedly. The score
stood 81 to nothing in favor OF the
college.
