At Mitchell Next Year.

At the close of the meeting the
board of directors, which consists Of
all the officers, was held for the pur-
pose of locating the next meeting OF
the association. j.. L. Dunmire pre-
sented the name Of Mitchell, and Mr..
McEthron presented Huron. The
former expressed the idea that mas
much as Mitchell had promoted the
organization of the association that
the first meeting outside Of the pres
ent ought to be held here. a major
ity of the board voted for Mitchell
and the place was so selected. The
date will be on the third Tuesday in
January, 1904. This is the same date
as for the meeting Of the South Da-
kota Poultry Show, and by combin-
ing the Two it is thought a great ex-
hibition car lie had.
Friday several of the visiting mem
ers were taken for a drive oyer the
city. Some were taken out to G. f.
Raymond's fam, a short distance
east Of town, to inspect his fine hero

a special meeting of the city coun-
Gil was held Saturday evening to take
the initial step toward repeating the

proposition that is now. before the

Alderman Miller introduced a reso-

evening for the Black Hills country.
but he didn't get any farther than
Sioux Falls before be was arrested on
a message from the authorities in
this city. Minard is charged with
stealing a trunk from Paul Robro.
who was formerly a boarder at the
Waverly. Robro claims that he left
the trunk at the hotel while Mrs.
Keihm was managing it and that he
owed her a board bill of So. He left
a new suit of clothes and other arti-
cles OF wearing apparel in the trunk
and when he went to redeem the
trunk OF Mrs. Keihm a few days ago
he claimed that nearly half of the ar
tlcles we're gone. He declined to ac-
cept the trunk unless he got all the
clothing. but says he got no satisfac-
tlon. Yesterday afternoon Robro
learned that Minard had secured the
trunk and was going to take it away
with him. He went to the Omaha
depot at 7 O'Clock Friday evening and
made a demand on Minard for the
trunk. For a reply Minard is report
ed by parties who saw the transaction
to have struck Robro several times,
and then threatened to shoot him.
Robro had nothing further to do at
the time than to accept the situation.
Minard boarded the passenger and
left the city. Robro wired the officers
at Sioux Fails to arrest Minard on
his arrival at that place, and they did
so.

ordinance was placed on it's first
reading AT the meeting of the
council on March 2 the ordinance
will be placed on its second and third
readings for approval and passage.
After its publication the ordinance
will be in force.
The council took up the matter of
the extension of water mains. and
the work will be commenced in The
spring. The mains will be extended
east from the Baptist church to j.
y. Morrow's residence. Also CON-
mencing at the corner Of Seventh
and Burr Streets they will be ex-
tended west to Kimball, north on
Kimball to Ninth, and one block
east and west on Ninth. This lat
ter extension was to have been made
last year, but it was postponed.
The ordinance committee was in
structed to frame an ordinance for
the franchise OF the gas company.
which would be satisfactory to the
council, and that if agreeable to the
company it would doubtless be
passed. The ordinance is to have u
feature with reference to the privfl-
eye Of the city purchasing the plant
OF the gas company at any time with
10 a specified limit. The franchise
will not be exclusive, and the city
itself will have the right to put in 4

AT CARDS AND DANCING
Society Folk Enjoyed the Combine
ton at the Mitchell Club
Rooms Friday Evening.

Perhaps the most attractive and
enjoyable party given by the Mitchell
Club since its inception was that OF
Friday evening, when cards and
dancing was the order of the even
ing. Although given under the
auspices of the club it was managed
by the ladies and to their patronage
was the success due. Thirteen tables
were arranged in the three rooms OF
the club and for an hour and a half
slnch occupied the attention of the
guests, the games being limited to
ten. After counting up the card
punches it was ascertained that nine
ladies were tied for first place, and
IN cutting the cards Mrs. Robert
Burns carried away the first prize.
Mrs. Q. W.. Johnston was awarded
the consolation prize. Four GENTLE
men were tied for first place and "A.
A. Boynton was successful in cut
ting out his competitors on the high
card. P. J. Kelley was awarded the
consolation prize.
Inc entire party then repaired to
the dancing 0 and a most excel
lent program occupied the attention
OF the dancers until after midnight..
The music was furnished by
Nlchols's mandolin CLUB, and it was
OF such character as to contribute
much Of the pleasure OF the LATTER
part of fine evaninr
The guests enjoyed the affair very
much indeed and it is likely that
similar events will follow during the
remainder of the winter season.

Wilson, of Brookings agricultural col

Prof. James W. Wilson, who has
charge Of the department. Of live
stock at the Brookings agricultural
college, was introduced to the stock
men and he gave a very interesting
discourse on "The Live Stock inter
ests of the State" His address had,
as he said, more to do with what he
would like to see it than as the sit
uation really was. A rising vote of
thanks was extended Mr.. Wilson for
the excellent paper.
The first resolution, as outlined
above. will be sent to each member
of the legislature, signed by the sec
rotary and president of the %associa-
tion. There is a division of opinion
among the stockmen concerning the
tax that is being talked Of in refer
ence to pure blooded stock. Some of
them were not opposed to paying
a higher tax on something that was
much better than a common scrub
animal. Others took the view that
" placing a high rate on the pedi-
greed animal that it would have a
tendency to put a barrier against in
creasiDg the number Of pure blood
cattle in the state.
Some questions were put to Mr..
Wilson as to the needs of the agri-
cultural college in the way OF build
ings, and he explained to the mem
bers just where the college was in
capacitated from reaching the best
results along the live stock line.
The plan was discussed pretty warm
ly of asking the legislature to make
a special appropriation of a certain
sum that would be of some benefit
to the livestock interests of the state
Some of the members felt that an
immense amount Of money had been
spent on other lines, and here was
the most prominent industry of the
state left to hustle along with COM
paratively small means.
The meeting of the stockmen was
adjourned about II O'Clock and every
member felt that a splendid organi-
cation had been put into existence.
The stock interests of The state, par
ticularly the pure bred class, have
never been banded together before,
and at this time an organization was
put into effect which we believe will
be a grand thing for them. The as
ISOLATION covers cattle, horses, swine,
sheep and poultry, and as is seer by
the officers, each class is given a vice
president to represent it on the board
of directors. One of the promoters
expressed the opinion that within a
year the membership would amount
to fully 300.

PLEASING Old English Custom.

Persons aspiring to become ba1l1ns
at Alnwick, in Northumberland, Eng
land, have to go through curious and
somewhat unpleasant ordeal. Before
the election the various candidates
ride up in body to horse pond, and
there, dismounting their steeds,
plunge into the water and struggle as
best they may to the other side. The
music of brass band cheers them
during their struggles in the dirty
water. This ancient custom dates
from the time of King John, who once
paid a visit to the town in 1910 and
found no fitting welcome prepared for
him. The blame of this state Of un.
preparedness was fastened on the
luckless bailiffs, who were promptly
thrown into the horse pond by royal
command.
