L. o. Gale received a message
Wednesday from the manager of the
Banda Rosa stating that the band
would come direct from Minneapolis
to MITCHELL. which insures their
prompt arrival in the city in time TO
begin their concerts on the day of
the opening of the cor palace. which
is now a month away. The Denver
engagement has been cancelled by
reason of trouble in the street car
management which had secured the
band for three weeks in September
to play in one of the beautiful parks.
The popularity Of the Banda Rosa
is further %attested by the fact that
this is the fourth time that this or
ganization has been secured to play
at the Minneapolis park resorts. This
band will certainly be a winner, and
hearing it .once only increases the
desire to hear it times without num-
Der.
Sioux Falls is having hard luck
with its ball team in the way Of local
support. The people turn out in very
small numbers TO see the games and
the team is not a paying institu-

uled for Sioux Falls the rest of the
season to other points in the state
where he thinks be can secure larger
crowds. An article in the Argus
Leader states that the fence and
grandstand will be removed within a
short time and that there is not a
great possibility OF Sioux Falls peo-
pie seeing any more league ball in
that town for several years. The
Sioux Falls club will play the Alex
andria nine on Monday of next week.
Our Alexandria neighbors feel they
