FL.ANDREAU TAKEN IN
University Football Team Found the
Indians We're Quito Easy in the
Football Game.
Indians Succeeded in Scoring Once
Through a Pluke Of the Conf
dent University Team.
A Soldier Boy Who Enlisted in Mitch
ell Year Ago Disd in the
Philippines.
FLANDREAU WAS EASY.
The University Team Had nc
Trouble in Beating Them On
the Gridiron.

After disappoi ointing thepeoplesnd the
football team last week by not coming
to Mitchell 10 play that game OF foot
ball the FIandreau team arrived Thurs
day afternoon and the whole matter
was settled on the gridirnn To the dis
comiture Of Flaadrean Ii they had
any idea they could best Mitchell they
got over it q short time after the game
had been in progress.
Play was called about 4 o'clock ard
from that fine to ths end the Univer-
city simply did as they wanted to
although they we're caught mapping
once and the Indians thereby gained
their score. There wasn't any question
but what they ought to have been shut
out if the University team had played
it's game. Three Of the good men of
the team were laid off on nccount of
injuries or sickness and these were
Spangler, Maxon and Wells.
At the end of the first half the score
stcod % to @ in favor of Mitchell, and
Flandreau had not been given an oppor-
tunity to score. Some really tias work
was done by the home team at times in
the first half but they did not wake up
to their work until after the second
half had begun.
Fland reau was weak in two places,
particularly in their end interference
and their players seemed unable to stop
the home team when they took notion
to make the end plays. They were more
successful with their line and several
times they stopped some hard rushes by
the home team. johnson made one Of
| the famous runs of the day when he got
| the ball at center and ran clear to
the goal for touchdown. Two of our
players helped him out wonderfully by
fnterferring with the Flandrsau fellows
in keeping them off. The score at the
end of The second half was 40 to 6.
Flapdreau made her only touchdown
in the second half and it came easy. A
tumble by Mitchell gave the ball to
Flandreau and in the pass Eastman saw
a monetary opening in the Mitchell
line aod taking advantage of it slipped
throngn and out of reach Of the players
until be had good start for the goal
and then there was no stopping him,
He kicked goal, and that was the end o1
their scoring.
Gregory. Smith and Hardy did some
fine work all the afternoon, the latter
kicking goal at every opportunity
There was a large crowd present but il
was long time bsfore the rooterl
could get up much enthusiasm or
account of the lack of good plays on the
part of the home team.
The boys are going to commence tt
practice for the Thanksgiving game a
once and bs in good shape for the hare
game they expect to have.

THEIR WORK IN MITCHELL,
A Worthy Tribute to the Salvation
Army Lassies for Their Good
Work.

The farewell services of Captain
Moses and Lieutenant Sirvel, of the
Salvation Army, announced for tomor-
row evening, makes it fitting to call
to mind their labors in our midst during
the last eight months for the salvation
of souls and the uplifting of fallen hu.
manity.
Among those who have had the best
opportunity to know there can be no
doubt that their lives of self-sacrifcing
devotion to the good of others is but
the outward manifestation OF tho in,
dwelling power of Him whose meat and
drink was to do His Fathers will.
1t is not the purpose of this article tc
bestow words OF hattering praise, but tc
recognize the faithful work done and
} to ascribe honor to Him who ie able {
transform human lives from the selfish
ness OF sin and make them show forth
the character of the meek and lowly
Jesus. There are many who will no
forget these lives Of modesty and purity
that have been lived among us, and tt
be thankful that they have, in some
measure at least, reflected the image o
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1900-11-16

Him who called them to go out into the
highways to seek those who have gone
sstray.
There are some who will thank God
that they listened to the earnest words
OF warning and invitation given in the
childlike simplicity of the gospel and
that through the instrumentality OF
these servants Of the Lord blessing has
come to their souls. Woman, though
the first in transgression in the garden
of Eden, was the last to linger at the
cross of the Cruci6ed One and the first
at the grave of her risen Lord on the
morning of the resurrection. The
browning glory OF womanhood shines
forth in this world OF sin aud sorrow as
beacon light 10 the weary wanderer
on life's ocean, guiding them to the
haven OF eternal blessedness and peace,
when she casts her all at the feet OF
her divine master, aud in the simplicity
of living faith in Him she goes forth
on her mission of mercy to rescue the
perishing.
The sympathy, good will end prayers
of many will follow these faithful Off
cers wherever they may go and all true
christians will surely desire that God
will bless them more abundantly in His
service till they shall be called from
labor 10 reward.

try.

A petition was circulated in Mitch
ell Monday and signed by about 225
people asking that Capt. Moses and
Lieut.. Sirvel be sent back to this city.
The petition was forwarded to the brig
adler general of the Salvation Army at
Minneapolis Monday afternoon. In
conversation with one of the members
Of the army he said that it was hardly
possible that the brigadisr would grant
the request as it was not the custom OF
the officers to return those in charge of
barracks but regarded the petitions as
expressions of confidence in the ability
of the retiring officials.
