Farewell Reception

\ farewell reception was rendered
Rev. and Mrs. Arnold Luton by the
the members of the Eastern Star on
Tuesday evening at Masonic Temple.
That worthy couple were presented
with a beautiful silver bon bon dish
lined with gold as slight token Of
the esteem in which they are held by

Kerr, past grand patron, made the
presentation, which was followed by
refreshments served in the dining hall
The refreshments consisted of ice
cream and cake and were served by

Mr.. Luton has been assigned to a
pastorate in Chicago near Lincoln
Park, and is expected to be in his new
field by Sept. 1st. While this assign
ment is in the line of promotion and
affords their friends a great deal of
pleasure it is near overshadowed by
by the keen regret experienced by rea-
son of their removal from this COM
munity where they are held in such
high regard.

BURGLARY
Magruder's Second Hand Store Rob-
bed of Guns and Shells.

Some time during Sunday night
somebody broke a large pane of glass
in the front of Chas Magruder'ss store
and stole four shotguns and 600 load
ed shells which were in the show win
dow, making their escape with the
property.
In all probability the burglary was
committed by some of the many men
who have been hanging about the city
for some time. The REGISTER has
frequently called attention to the
necessity of getting number OF balls
and chains and unless strangers had
means of supporting themselves or
were here longer than twenty-four
hours without money or means they
should be either sent out OF the city or
put to work with ball and chain at
tachment.
If something is not done to get rid
OF these "transcients" the town will
wake up some morning and find that
some establishment has been burglar
lied to greater extent than "a few
guns and some ammunition.

Better Than It Looked.

George Wright, travelling salesman
with headquarters in Huron, was at
Carthage the other day and says he
was talking with one OF the farmers
near that town about the crops, who
reported everything in fine shape, ex-
cepting the wheat and said it would
not pay him to cut it. A few days
later George saw the same man, who
told him that he had cut and thres he'd
his wheat, which went a little more
than thirteen bushels to the acre and
for which he received IS cents bushel.
After receiving the yield he did and
the price the farmer complained be-
cause his wheat was not grade No. /.
Upon threshing their wheat crop, the
farmers will all find more bushels to
the acre than they realized and for
which they will receive y good fair
price. .-Huronite.
The REGISTER predicts that the crop
of wheat in Brookings county will
prove to be better than some have
stated it would be.

THE BLOOMER GIRLS
Large Crowd Witness the Game
Here on Monday

The Boston Bloomer girls played
our local team Monday and were badly
wOrsted. The score standing at the
close Of the game l6 to /. Seven hum
dred tickets were sold which tells the
story of much interest taken. The
novelty Of girls playing ball was a
drawing card and one hard to be re-
sisted The Bloomer girls played a
pretty fair game but they were up
against a pretty hard proposition and
the one score they received was due to
the generosity Of their viCtors who
allowed them to score on the last run
made in the ninth inning.
Although a travelling aggregation,
out for the money there is i'll it, the
Bloomer girls are a quiet, orderly set, ,
and in their performance here on Mon
day there was no exhibition OF unlady-
like conduct. They are certainly very
graceful in their work and are at home
on the diamond.

BROOKINGS A COLLEGE TOWN
The Bay Staters Learn Something
of Our Culture and Intelligence

The Worcester Mass Daily Tele-
gram of the Sth inst. publishes an in
terview with President Chalmers in
which he takes occasion to say some
good words for South Dakota. DR..
Chalmers said that 1.-The two Dakotas
have developed rapidly within the last
few years, and the product of wealth
acquired in the last six years has been
greater per capita than in any two
states in the Union.
agriculture and stock raising are
our principal industries, and the farm
ing lands are simply wonderfully rich,
and to say that | am surprised over
the annual output is putting it mildly
indeed. Crops in South Dakota are
unusually heavy in wheat, corn, bar
ley, rye and oats, while the mining
industries III the Black Hills districts
are increasing and extending every
year.
'The plants in the Hills are putting
in modern machinery and thousands
of dollars worth of the yellow metal,
which was formerly lost because OF the
crude processes, is now saved to the
miners, who are really the mainstays
OF the country.
"As the population increases the
number of manufactures is also made
larger, but South Dakota has not yet
made rapid progress in the introduce
ton of manufacturing industries.
II think that South Dakota has the
best prospects along educational lines,
financially, of any state in the Union,
and this is due largely to the wisdom
of the men who shaped the early
policy of the state. Eventually South
Dakota will come into an income
which will relieve the rate payers of
the burden of taxation for education,
and for that reason taxes will never be
high"
DIR. Chalmers explained that thous-
ands of acres of land have been set
aside for education. These lands are
sold to settlers at a rate of not less
than $40 an acre, and the proceeds 60
to the schools and colleges in the
state.
Speaking Of the state college of
which he is president, DR.. Chalmers
said that the institution received S40,-
600 from the United States government
and $1,000 from the state of South
Dakota, in addition to the income
from $50, 900 acres of fertile lands,
which, when all is sold, will give the
college a permanent endowment of
81 900 900.
The state college has 900 odd stu
dents, the faculty being a teaching
force of 80 in the 26 departments. The
students are mostly boys, the percent
age being about five to one girl.
"Brookings is distinctively "A college
town." the president said. Owe have
a population of something like $500,
and we are happy. There are no
saloons in our town, the sentiment at
the polls being about three to one.
We have none of the wild and woolly,
SO often mentioned in comic and ire
spOnsible newspapers, and | venture
there is just as much culture and in
telligence there as one will find in
