| Rev. G. r. O'Flaherty went to
Parkston Tuesday to be present at the
laying of the corner stone of the $685.
0O0 Catholic church to be erected
there. The exercises were in charge
of Bishop O'Gorman. Father Ireland
who was formerly in charge of this
parish, is now stationed at Parkston
and can rightly take great pride in
having one of the finest CHI urch ed
itices in the state
The railroad companies have been
obliged to recind the order of with
drawing return passes to stock ship
pers. The railroad commissioners
knocked the order out in Iowa and
the railroad companies had to back

lsa slight concession to Il class of men
who have been losing money hand
over fist the past year, thanks to the
beef trust which is sklnning everybody
engaged in handling cattle except

and commission and for few beef
steaks in Il dining car.
Company H's long talked of MILL
tary ball did not materialize last
night. The boys became discouraged
the first Of the week at the outlook
and when they could not secure any
one to handle the supper end of the
function held meeting Tuesday
night and decided to declare the
thing off. So much sickness IN town
and the illness OF Capt. Quirk in
particular-put :: damper on the affair
but the principal trouble was that
people had gotten over the fever. II
the ball had been pulled off the week
following the original date-as it
could have been the ball would have
been big success For weeks
the affair had been advertised, every
body was talking about it and the
time to have it was before they got
over the anticipation. The eXper-
fence has been somewhat d costly one
for the boys, but may be profitable to
them another time.
