CORN PALACE ATTRACTIONS
What Will be Seen in the Building
and the Features on the Street
Latter are Free.

While Manager Gale Of the attrac-
lions has not secured all the attrac-
tions for the corn palace that be is
figuring on be has closed with enough
so that he can give the public some
idea of what will be Seen in the corn
palace and On the streets.
The Banda Rosa, lead by the
famous ~Sorrentino, will be heard
every afternoon and evening in the
corn palace. the first concert being
given Tuesday evening, Sept. %.
The Banda Rossa's fame extends over
the United States, and it has been
heard IN all the principal cities of
the country. 1t is a band that has
played its way into popular favor by
the excellence Of its music, and the
corn palace management certainly
made a tenstrlke when it secured
the band, ever though it was done
at a cost Of double what any other
band was ever paid for a corn palace
engagement. Hayes s. Healey will
also be seen in the corn palace each
afternoon and evening. They are a
pair of funmakers that the people
will never forget. Their work is of
a refined nature. tut they are funny
beyond compare, and an audience
would have to be Sphinxlike indeed
to avoid a happy response to their
efforts. Hayes is vel six feet tall
and Healey is a midget in compar-
ison. being short and chubby. Their
very appearance is ludicrous.
In the way Of street attractions
Mr.. Gale has secured Frederick the
Great, in his marvellous performance
on the silver thread. one of the most
wonderful swinging wire acts in the
profession.
Ingham, introducing original and
sensational acrobatic novelties, is an
his acts is to walk down a stairway
on one hand. The Williams colored
quartet will entertain the people on
the street with their splendid sing
ing. LIZ QuditSI 10 plOliOuLSCu w
be excellent and wherever it has ap-
peared it has made a great hit.
Count DeButz, the famous bicycle
trick rider. will be with us again
this year, but the old boy has a
great number Of new tricks to intro
duce and he will be very popular
again with the people. When De
Butz was here a year ago there was
nc act or the street that took so
we'll as his and with his additional
novelties or the wheel he will be
better than ever. The Third regi-
pent band of Woonsocket will De in
Mitchell the first five days of the corr
palace and will be heard On the street
morning, afternoon and evening. The
band will furnish the music for the
street attractions. There are about
thirty musicians in the band and the
music they produce will keep things
lively and interesting. The last five
days of the palace the Parker band
will be in tie city to play on the
streets.
M;tchell's corn palace will be bet
ter than ever this year and the COM
mittee is lending every energy tC
entertain the people royalty on the
occasion of their visit to the city.

For the sake of the tender feelings
of some newspapers inclined to
s'knock'' Mitchell through jealousy
not from any love of Pierre-it is to
be regretted that the capital cam
paign cannot be conducted like a pink
tea. 1t has been the talk Of the
state for ten years OF more that
Pierre was no place for the capital
and never would be-because Of its
inaccessible location for an indefinite
length of time. 1t has nev been the
opinion or any Intelligent. we'll
posted man in the state that the
country west of Pierre would ever
sustain the same population as will
always exist east Of the Missouri. 1t
was this feeling alone which made
reSubmisslon of the capital question
possible. 1t was this we%ll-grounded
belief which passed the resubmisslon
measure through the legislature by a
vote of almost four to one. The
supporters of Mitchell have said
nothing of the country west of Pierre
which is e to anybody. If the
inference IS that there is something
about it different from the country
east of the Missouri. it's a story
much older than Mitchell's capital
aspirations. Anyhow, the facts can
not be hidden. If there are those
who think Mitchell is going into this
capital contest with pillows and let
Pierre use a meat ak. it's well enough
that the idea were jolted out of them.

TIE MITCHELL CAPITAL
FRIDAY; SEPTEMBEk IL. 1903.

Those newspapers which are dis
posed to look coldly upon Mitchell's
capital aspirations, for one reason
and another, affect considerable in
dignation and some grief because
some doubts have been cast upon
that alleged stampede Of settlers to
the lands west of Pierre. One news
paper gets right up and howis. n
among other things. says: There
is not an army big enough to keep the
people from crossing the Missouri in
to the rich and fertile country vest
We don't see then what all the fuss
is about. Surely, nothing that
Mitchell could say could stop it
eevn if her people were inclined that
way-which they are not. The talk
about land frauds in land entries
west of the Missouri came from the
interior department at Washington
and did not originate in Mitchell nor
among any of its supporters. Dis
patches of this nature were published
in all the western newspapers circu-
lating in this state. The only ''fraud'
alleged by anyone hereabouts is that
the number of land filings does not
by any means indicate any great
amount of settlement-a fact so well
known to anyone acquainted with
the 'ssettlement'' Of the lands west
of Pierre as to not need explanation.

Jordan Valley Road.

Prof. Robert Milliken gave a pre-
lmlnary report of the survey of the
proposed Jordan valley road at a
meeting of the Commercial club on
Friday evening the 25th. He esti-
mates that it will cost at least $1,000
to build the road. He is preparing
the maps and estimates and it is
expected that he will go over the
road with several contractors in the
near future so that they may bid
on the same. While it is not def
nitely settled that this road will be
built, it is the unanimous opinion
OF all business men that it would be
great advantage to Nampa, bring
ing large volumes of trade from this
famous valley.-Nampa Times.
