FOOT BALL IN MITCHELL,
The University Team Will be a
Swift One This Season Be
yOnd All Question.
yOnd ALI Question,

1t is quito evident that the Universi.
ty football team this season will be the
strongest ever put up by the local insti-
tuition. While passing through Sioux
City few days ago on his way home
Prof. Bertram B. Cropp, the coach Of
the football team, was interviewed by a
Journal reporter in reference to the
University's team this year, and MIR.
Cropp gave him the following:
prospects for a winning football
team were never brighter, than now at
Dakota University" said B. D. Cropp,
who has charge Of the athletics of the
Mitchell institution, while in Sioux
City. Mr.. Cropp is an alumnus of Wis
consin University, where he was a
standby in foot ball, and he has had
considerable success in his work at
Mitchell with the different teams.
This year we will start the season
with about thirty candidates" I" contin-
ued Mr.. Cropp, "We're going to do
some preliminary training, and about
September LIST, fifteen days before the
University opens, we will get together
ut Mitchell, establish u traioing school,
and get down TO hard work so that our
team may be ready eMrly in the season. u
The Mitchell school expects to have
a good schedule of games this year.
Mr.. Cropp is now trying to arrange for
a series of games with Iowa teams
especially Drake, Penn College and
Ames or Grinnell He wants to take
his team for weeks trip into this
state. He may also seek to get a game
scheduled in Sioux City.
1t is possible that game can be had
with the Vermillion eleven this year, as
the local eleven will send them forma
challenge in time. 1t is hoped tina
| Vermillion can see its way clear to ac
cept the position. If the challenge il
accepted the game will likely be played
on neutral ground, and perhaps in Siou1
City. Mitchell is willing to make con
cessions to get on with those Vermilliol
fellows.

HAVE OPERA HOUSE
Work is Progressing Finely on the Re-
pairs OF the Opera House---WilI be
Ready NoV. list.
The Interior Of the Building Will be Far
Superior to the Former One and
More Attractive.
Efforts are Being Directed to Extend
Omaha'S Night Train Service 10
Mitchell From st. Paul.
OPERA HOUSE BUILDING.
The Former Building VIII Hardly
Be Recognized in the Changes
Being Made.

When Mrs. c. j. Sickler finishes the
work on the opera house building that
is now going on, the interior .will
hardly be recognizable. 1t is the aim
and desire OF Mrs. Sickler to give
Mitchell people really attractive
opera house and from an inspection, of
the plans there is no question but what
the change will be surprising.
There has always been fear that the
north wall was unsafe and that some
accident mightresult thereby, although b
competent judges assert that the wall
was perfectly safe. But to satisfy the
public, Mrs. Sickler had the wall torn
down past the point where it was sup
posed to be the weakest and Mr.. Casady
has just finished laying the brick, A
new roof will be placed on the building
as most of it was destroyed or rendered
useless by the fire.
The contract for the carpenter work
was awarded to ). Ell. Slater, wi ho has a
force OF men ut work to complete the
job just as soon as possible.
The stage will be- made SONS larger,
in that it will be four feet wider and as
much deeper. 1t will also be raised
two feet. The seats on the lower floor
| will be on an incline to the rear part
| and The front part will pe raised foot
| higher than it is now, which will afford
a full view of the stage from all parts
of the house. The arrangement of the
balcony will be changed quite mater
tally and will be of a more attractive
design. The balcony will be extended
to the extreme west end of the build.
ing, which will afford that much more
seating capacity upstairs. Entrance to
balcony will be through passageway
on the interior OF the building.
At each side OF the stage four boxes
will be erected for the use of private
parties and they will be made very con
venieDt and attractive.
The dressing rooms will be placed un
der the stage, and the conveniences il
this particular will be better than ever
| The interior OF the building will BIZ
ventilated much better than before al
three windows for that purpose have
been placed in the top part OF the north
wall. For the past fifteen months
Mitchell has been without an opere
house and the fact that once more /;
comfortable and attractive playhouse il
to be furnished the public will be hailed
with delight.
Mrs. Sickler also owns the property
adjoining her building on the north ant
she states that she will erect q nev
building on that lot for the use of ,
mercantile business. Mrs. Sickle
thinks work on the opera house will b
completed by the lst of Novem ber ant
says she has made no arrangements a
yet for leasing the property bus ha

alton.

done residents OF towns west could como

done residents Of towns west could como
to Sioux Falls spend the evening and
return in the morning. It is known
that number of the train men have
expected the extension OF the train ser
vice aud have refrainsd- from making
arrangements which would tie them
down. The last issue of the Worthing-
ton Globe has the following on the sub
ect:
The people on the branch west of
Sioux Falls are preparing tc ''lay down"
on the Omaha officials for extension OF
night train faciliJies between Mitchell
and intermediate points and the Twin
cities OF course if the company could
see it's way Gear to making a through
train pay, there is no time too short
lin which to make the extension. And
even If the company could see that it
would not be losers, there is little ques-
tlon that the accommodation would be
extended.
it was hoped by the business men of
Mitchell that the train would be run
through to them by the new time card
just out, but it wasn't; hence the action
referred to. The Mitchellites, the
Montroseites, the Hartfordites, and
'ites" of all the other towns on the line
feel that under existing conditions it is
hardly square deal that they must go
to the Twin citiesln the daytime. reach
ing there too late to do any business in
the evening and necsssitating q night
and day there, and another night and
getting home the succeeding night,
thus losing two days from business when
they need only consume one day if they
could make the run from home one
night ana back the next.
1t is asserted by these people that be-
side the increased traffic by running a
through passenger train at night be-
tween Mitchell and the Twin Cities, the
Omaha would get the travelling men
who now go over the Milwaukee from
Sioux Falls to Mitchell. They feel
very deeply over the matter, and it is
possible that it will not be long before
through passenger run both night and
day, over the branch will be an accom-
plished fact and paying investment
On the occasion Of recent visit of an
Omaha official in this city he informed
THE REPUBLICAN that there was no
doubt in his mind but what his road
would establish the night train service.
1t might be good idea for the business
men Of this city to offer what encourage
ment is possible under the circumstan.
ces, as there is no question but what it
would be Of benefit to the business in
terests of Mitchell.

Two circus days in a week and the
one following so close on to the heals of
the other is about as much as an ordi-
nary town can stand. There was q
large crowd in town yesterday to the
Norris & Rowe animal show, but larg-
er one came in tnis morning to see the
Great Eastern show. Owing to an ao-
cident at Scotland Thursday night the
circus did not arrive until o'clock and
it was after before it was unloaded
from the cars. It required much
hurrying on the part of the employees to

Work, Progressing at Waterworks.

Work Progressing at Waterworks.
Work is progressing very nicely at
the water works at the present time and
one of the wells, is ready for the connec.
tions with the new pump when it ar
rives. Mayor VanAlstine said that the
pump was to have been shipped yester-
day from New York. 1t was the sup
position that the new arrangement for
pumping the city water from the wells
would be in operation by Sept. 1st, but
it will be necessarily delayed little
while longer. The drillers at the artes-
ian well are making good progress and
we are informed they are now drilling
in sand formation, which leads to the
hope that they are in the vicinity of 8
flow.

result if the pardoning board is not a
political organization that the state
will not witness the wholesale release OF
notorious criminals at the end Of guber-
material terms. 1t will be remembered
that Just prior to ex-Gov. Scoiields sur
render of tl.. reins of authority into the
hands Of his successor he indiscriminate-
ly pardoned out Of the penitentiary pris-
oners who had notorious records. a
pardon board would likely be a check
against REPETITION OF this bad judg-
ment.
1t might be wise for the Legislature to
give this subject more than ordinary at
tention, and possibly reform may spring
ont Of the investigation.
