at the baseball grounds and a very
elaborate program is arranged by
them for the entertainment of Chau-

grass dance with which there is con-
nected some old traditions and the
Indians will live at the grounds in
just the same condition that they do
in their primitive state. Then there
Will be al Indian fight between the
male members Of the tribe, executed
with all the thrills and incidents
with which the Indians are given
credit. They delight very much in
this part of the program and there is
that attention to detail which makes
it realistic. Besides this the tribe
boasts some Of the finest lacrosse talent
in the northwest and there will be
a keenly contested game, between two
clubs. There will also be baseball,

riding, and taken all in all th-ir stay

event. They will come over the Pe]i-
can Point bridge on the afternoon Of

were prevented from attending. There
will be no hitch in the program this
year and with the weather what it
should be, Grand FORKS day promises
to be n of the biggest of the assem-
bly,.
