IN 1sE PURITAN STYLE
Baptist Young People Entertained
the Elder Members OF the
Church Friday Evening.

The annual business meeting of the
Baptist church was held at the
church Friday evening and the fol-
lowing officers we're elected for the
ensuing year: Trustee for three
years, Geo. W. Law; for o year, o.
Fl. Perry; clerk, G. G. Halphide
treasurer, G. W. Gillls. Reports
from various officers showed the
church to be in a growing and pros
porous condition. Tho following
officers we're recommended for the
Sunday school, and who will be elect
ed tomorrow: superintendent, j. w.
Broadbent assistant superintendent,
q. W. ellis; secretary. Edith Soper;
treasurer, Elmer Loomer. -
After the business meeting was
concluded the B. Y. P. o. gave a
Puritan party for the entertainment
of the older members OF the church.
The young people were dressed in the
costumes representing Puritan days
and the program of songs and recita-
tions consisted of numbers that were
of a Puritan character. Refreshments
were served toward the close of the
evening, and it resulted in a splendid
gathering Of the old and young,
which will doubtless bind them closer
together in the church and Sunday
school work.

Famous indeed is the Colchester. oys-
ter feast, and to be invited is consid-
cred the highest compliment the town
can confer not only from the impor-
lance of the function. but because at
that meal is an unlimited supply of the
finest obtainable natives. of which
some sacks are consumed. Even from
the times of the Romans these oysters
have been celebrated, says the London
Chronicle. Exclusive rights to the oys-
ter fisheries were granted to the town
under II charter of Richard L., and in
the reign of Elizabeth horse loads of
oysters We're accepted as gifts by the
courtiers of the time. Massinger's
Justice Greedy commences his day with
"a barrel of Colchester oysters" a
statement that shows how altered are
the customs of today.

AGAIN THOSE lHoMEsTEADs
Experiences of Some Brooking
County Boys Who Took
Claims OH Reservation.

More or less has been said about
the settling up Of the reservation
west of Pierre, OF the many settlers
who have filed upon the land and
then proved up OH their CLAIMS
which indicated to the Pierre boom
e-s that these settlers intended to
follow agricultural pursuits, and that
as a grazing country the Walton
was fast losing its prestige The Re-
publican has been criticised any num-
Der of times for mentioning the mat
ter that there was a strong possibil-
ity that the greater portion of these
settlers were simply taking the land
to prove up on it and then sell it to
the cattlemen. But tie people out
there have been trying to explode
that idea all along, in spite Of the
fact that instances have been given
OF the situation time and again.
That reservation is Pierre's stock in
trade in the capital campaign and
anything that town puts up Tor an
argument can certainly be attacked
without being called a knocker on
the state. 1t is in no such spirit that
anything is said Of that or any part
of the state. The following taken
from the Volga Tribune, shows
%conclusively that there is much
trouble ahead for the settlers who
have been induced to go on the
reservation to make a showing:
i.-.Most of our readers will remember
that about a year avo Mont Henry,
Frank freeman. Hans Kalbery, Willie
Nelson. Harvey and Harry Porter
went out to Hughes county and filed
on government land to the extent OF
16O acres apiece. The boys made
several trips out there, building
"houses" on their claims and other.
wise spending their good money.
They made final proof at the Pierre
land Office last April and since that
time have been patiently waiting fol
their patents from Washington. Last
week they received word from the in
terror department. that owing to the
fact that the boys had not main.
tanned an actual residence upon the
land, Jas they took the land for graz
ing purposes, and the evidences at
hand did not show that they had
stock. u there. the department
could not see its way clear to issue
patents. The boys did everything
that the Hughes county boomers rep
resented to them that was necessary
to be done in the matter Of proving
up and securing their patents, but
