World Famous Band
AT THE
Mitchell Corn Palace
BruIe County Day at Mitchell


Monday, the Goth, the opening day
of the corn palace, is the date selected
by the Milwaukee to accommodate the
people west Of Mitchell who wish to
visit that city during corn palace
week. On that day a special train
will be made up at Mitchell after the
evening concert by Sousa's great band
and leave for Chamberlain. This will
give the visitors an opportunity to
see the street attractions and other
%amusements and yet have plenty of
time to hear either the afternoon con-
|cert or the n in the evening, or
both, and do a"little running around
besides. 1t is far from likely that
the Milwaukee will hold the vest
bound train on any of the days, and
on that account every body should
make their arrangements to go down
Monday. There is plenty of time of
course to look the corn palace oyer
and hear the afternoon concert on
any day and take the train on time,
but there will be plenty of time to
spare Monday.
Dawson county has selected Mon
day as "Davison County day" and as
it is the opening day of the fcte they
propose to haye something doing.
The corn palace will be open but six
days this year, instead of ten as on
former years, and the railroads will
run special excursions every day In
stead of every alternate day.
The Milwaukee company has furth-
er improved its service on this diyls.
ion by putting on three vestlbuled
smokers, with high and comfortable
seats and in other ways all right. In
l~cidentally, the /. Il d. division has
the credit Of being the best paying
division in point OF returns for ex-
penditures of any on the Milwaukee's
1000 miles of road-and it is getting
better all the time. Tram men say
that the average travel is heavier
west Of Mitchell than into !Sanborn,
Iowa, from the east. The company
shows its appreciation Of it by fur
nishing this division the best equip
mcEt in the state. Years ago, through
passengers to and from this section to
Chicago went via Sioux City. Now
most Of them go via Sanborn-and it
is much the best route. Supt. Collins
knows his business.
Les than ten wears ago the pref
test group of trees in town was a row
OF handsome and thrifty box elders on
First street in the e a Of the Noyotny
store building. To-day but two are
standing-and its days are already
numbered. Teams have been hitched
to them until the trees were ruined
and one by n they have gone the
way directed by mans thoughtless-
ness and devil-may-care heedlessness.
1t is a shame--a dirty shame-and it
is passing strange why the city auth
critics have not made it their bust
ness to protect those handsome trees,
which were wholly to the glory CT the
town and of no particular benefit to
the owner.
0. =. Murray, p. II. d. has bought
the Bijou Hills bank OF o. e. Wilson.
Mr.. Murray is an old resident of the
state, notwithstanding that he is
somewhat of a stranger in Blule
county. He was the first graduate Of
the Mitchell University and has led
something of a literateur since, being
the author of several books and a lee
turer. His mother lives near the
Hills, which is one Of his reasons for
settling down there to a quiet life.
Gov. Herreid writes US that the
week beginning September 26 has been
set aside by the st. Louis exposition
management as "South Dakota
week." and that Thursday, Sept. 90,
Will be "South Dakota Day." Special
features will mark this day. Better
pack your buds and slip down.
