Mrs. Bertha Dahl Laws

Has for the past twelve years
been before the public teaching
and lecturing upon subjects con-
nected with household economics
and the home. For five years she
taught cooking in the Minneapolis
public schools. She was, for some
time, prominently connected with
an institution in Indiana where as
many as $50 children we're fed and
cared for in the most hygienic, as
we'll as economical manner.
This wide experience combined
with her training as nurse in some
Of the best hospitals in the west,
particularly fitted her for the
position she has so ably filled for
the past two years upon the Min
nesota Institute platform. Mrs.
Laws has given much time and
study to plain foods and how to
prepare them in simple economical
ways. She believes that it would
help much toward building a
stronger and healthier race if

Old Settlers Reunion.

Saturday, June Both, will be
Old Settlers Day at the North
Dakota Chautauqua association
grounds, Devils Lake. and it will
be a fitting opening to the assem-
bly, of 1900. A number of the old
settlers have been at work prepar-
ing for this event for months and
a program will be given on that
day which will be of particular
interest to all old settlers as we'll
as those who joined the ranks
later and helped to built up this
young commonwealth.
The Fort Totten Indian band
will be present early in the morn
ing and will liven things up some
what by their music. In order to
give those living out Of the city of
Devils Lake an opportunity to
take part in the exercises Of the
day the entertainment will not
commence until 2 p. NJ, but there
will be plenty Of good things on
the Chautauqua grounds during
the morning hours for those al
ready on the. ground. At p. M,
a grand entertainment has been
arranged for in which the Wesle-
yam Quartette, Anderson Sisters.
Miss Eleanor Goodman, Al g..
Flournoy, impersonator, the
Fort Totten Indian band and
others will take part. The adj
dress Of welcome will be made by
the Hon. W. Fl. Brown, mayor Of
Devils Lake and DR.. Eugene May,
D. D., will respond with an. address
on the 1890 Assembly," At 8
p. NJ, the fire works will open
when there will be all kinds of
entertainment for the old settlers
the entertainment they enjoy
the best. There will be speeches,
anecdotes, early "reminiscences and
plenty of good music. An address
will be made by Hon. John F.
Cowan, j. V. Brooke, Hon. EN-
NETT Orr, Judge D. E. Morgan,
Col. III. M. Creel, f. Fl. Prosser
and others.
The day will be set apart en-
tirely for old settlers and rousing
time is anticipated by all. There
will be plenty of music all the time
and the old settlers will be in evil
dence all the time, morning after
noon and evening and everything
will be done to make the event
long remembered by the pioneers
Of the greatest state in the greatest
commonwealth in the world.
Those who have never attended a
genuine jollifcation meeting of
old settlers do not know what they
have missed. The anecdotes Of
early days, the experience on the
frontier and the many side-split-
ting tales will keep all in good
humor during the day.

Devils Lake, and 8 destined to be-
come one of the largest cities on
the line of the st. Paul, Minneapo-
lis and Manitoba r. r., and dur
ing the months Of July, August,
September and October Of each
year, pleasure boats will run down
the bay and into Devils Lake, for
the benefit of invalids, pleasure
seekers, etc. Hotels, bath houses,
and all necessary conveniences for
the comfort Of parties from
abroad visiting this wonderful
medical resort will be constructed
at an early date, when the tide Of
medical waters and medical seek
ers will be turned from Hot
Springs, Ravenden and Eureka
Springs to Devils Lake; an ever
lasting fountain of medical water,
called by the Indians, Minnewauk-
an, which is IS miles long and 10
miles in width, will soon be classed
as one of the the great medical re-
sorts Of the world.
The government officials should
lose no time in having the land
around Devils Lake surveyed.
There r at present no less than
5000 people in Ramsey county,
living on unsurveyed lands, a large
portion Of them doing little or
nothing forfear that when the land
is surveyed, the line will throw all
or part Of their improvements on
some other claim. The present
state of affairs broods an immense
amount Of trouble, as one person
stakes out a claim, there being no
surveyed lines. some stranger
comes along and puts up a shanty
on what he supposes to be unoccu-
pied land and finds he is perhaps
a few rods over the line on another
mans claim. There is little doubt
the recent murder at Creel City
was the result of having no gov
eminent lines by which to lay out
claims. The ground is free from
frost now and there is nothing to
hinder the work of surveying, and
it is simply criminal negligence to
delay the matter longer.

Seventeen Years Ago.

Now that the Old Settlers are
about to hold their great meeting
and grand barbecue, anything that
savors Of old times is interesting.
An opportunity to take a peep in
to bygone days was given us by
the perusal Of the columns of
the "Devils Lake Globe" which
was kindly loaned to us. The
items are taken from the first is
sue, April 26, 1883, and are guaran-
teed sufficiently ancient. The
Globe published at Grand Harbor
was the first paper published on
the north shore of the lake:
Creel City is to have a six thous-
and dollar hotel the coming sum-
mer, work having commenced on
the same.
It is expected that the Devils
Lake and Turtle Mountain branch
of the st. P. M. & M. road will be
completed to this place early in the
summer, and then Grand Harbor
will experience a boom that has
not been exceeded by any town in
Dakota.
The Odd Fellows ball to be held
at Fort Totten this evening will be
an occasion Of unusual interest
and pleasure. A good time is an
ticipated for all attending.
Mr.. Fl. G.. Treat while walking
along where the road crosses the
head of the bay last Saturday,
caught two fine pickerel, weighing
about four pounds each, with his
hands.
Capt. Herman left yesterdayfo1
his home in Wabasha, Mimi. and
after perfecting some final arrange.
ments necessary relating to the
boat, will return with his family
Those wishing to secure a claim
in this section will have to do 81
soon, as there is scarcely a quarter
section for miles around that hat
not been "squatted' upon by some
hardy pioneer.
It is almost Incredible the mum
Der of fish that are being caugh:
here this spring. Last Monda,
morning Mr.. Lou Stosser and tw,
younger brothers caught nine fin,
ones weighing from four to twelv,
pounds apiece; and j. FL. Barthol
omew and J. F. Cowan 27, weigh
ing over 125 pounds. The fish ar
all of good size and are equal il
quality to the trout caught in LAX
Michigan.

from the mouth Of the bay. 0.

corating the auditorium, and if he
can secure enough bunting will

ed for the opening tomorrow night.
Marsh Lynes is running the
Chautauqua stable this year and
has made preparations to take care
of all the horses that come. Rates
for stabling are moderate, and the
service will be the best.
Captain Herman has named
his steam launch the Maria Teresa
and says she will have a wooden
gun and be otherwise decked out
as a formidable warship. The
Teresa will be used for small ex-
cursion parties in the bay, a trip
Of several miles costing only 25
cents.
For sometime a crew Of men
have been at work on the base
ball park. Competent critics state
that with the improvements com
pleted this makes one of the best
base ball diamonds in the state
Visitors at the C~hautauqua will be
interested to know that games
have been arranged throughout
the season and some good games
can be expected.
The steamer Rock Island wher

Tuesday evening, met with an &C.

chored and the engineer rowed te

abled vessel into port. The Rocl
Island arrived at the landing
about midnight, the little launch
pulling her in in good shape. The
engine was repaired in time for the

for quite a distance out, and the
lake bed is as smooth as a floor.
These gentlemen have cottages
and tents all in a cluster, on one
of the most picturesque parts of
the grounds, and have everything
conveniently arranged for a de-
|lightful outing,
About the busiest place in the
state at the present time is the
Chautauqua grounds Of the North
Dakota Chautauqua association
and as the opening days Of the
1900 assembly approach everyone
is working with might and main
to complete all arrangements and
from the present outlook it would
appear that never before in the
history Of the association has
there been such elaborate prepare
tions not only by the board Of
directors but also by those who
intend spending the summer days
there.
w. Fl. Reid has built a large
and commodious restaurant on. the
grounds and is serving meals on
the European plan. O.. @. Clifford
is also erecting a large restaurant
on the grounds and it will also be
run on the European plan. The
two named gentlemen are we'll
known to Chautauqua patrons and
their experience in this business
is sufficient guarantee of the good
service that will be rendered F.
w. Mann & Son have their store
in operation and everything in
the way Of groceries, fruits ETC.,
can be secured at low rates. A
meat market, bakery and all other
necessary adjuncts to a successful
Chautauqua are established on
the ground and visitors this year
will want for nothing.
The contractors have about com
pleted the large and commodious
bath house. The old bath house
will be utilized, it having been
renovated and repaired. At the
north end a large band stand has
been erected and under the stand
there will be a general reception
room and office. Here bathers
can secure their suits ETC., to the
north a long addition has been
erected and there will be fourteen
addition rooms for ladies. The
south part will be used for gentle
mems closets exclusively. This
feature promises to be one of the
most interesting this year Of any
other. Even now, several days
before the opening of the season
the bath house is crowded and it is
predicted that there will have to
be an addition built before the
season is we'll under way.
One Of the most noticeable i'm
provements to be chronicled this
year is the erection Of cottages.
The 120 acres Of forest the most
beautiful spot in the state is dot
ted here and there with new cot
tages, erected after the most ap-
proved and modern summer cot
tage plans. This has added
greatly to the beauty Of the park
this year and when the assembly
opens and everything has been
cleared for action it is safe to say
that no association ground in the
northwest will be better equipped
for the accommodation of all the
guests and visitors to the Chau-
tauqua. Already the grounds are
being covered with tents and fami-
lies are moving in and everything
is life and action. Crews of men
are at work putting the finishing
touches on the new buildings on
the ground and by the last IF the
week nothing will be left undone,
