The Piano Recital,

The Piano Recital which was to have
been given at the opera house on Satur-
day evening, July lst, but was postponed
on account of the storm, was listened to
by very appreciative audience on the
following Monday evening. The recital
was given by Miss Willis music class
under direction of that very accomplish
ed young lady, who, judging from the
progress of the pupils and the highly
creditable program rendered, has proven
herself a thoroughly efficient teacher in
music. The program consisted of solos,
duets, trios and quartettes varied by
vocal selections by the Mandolin Club.
All the numbers rendered were high
grade music and in their selection and
execution showed careful thought and
hard work on the part of both the teach
er and the pupils. The stage was beau
tifully decorated with potted plants and
cut flowers, and these together with the
young girls in their pretty evening dress
es made the musicale as pleasing to the
sight as it was gratifying to the hearing.
This is the third annual recital that
Miss Willis and her class have given and
it is to be hoped they will continue to
give many more. Such entertainments
should always be well attended and such
efforts encouraged and rewarded by the
highest success.

On to the Black Hills.

John Il. Petrie, of Chamberlain, dep
kota, who was in Sioux City today, be-
lieves that the Milwaukee railroad will
not stop building its western extension
at Lyman county, but believes that if
the weather is satisfactory the line will
be completed clear to the Black Hills
this summer. HI claims to have infor-
nation to the effect that the completion
of the extension to the Hills depends
entirely upon the weather.
According to Mr.. Petrie the Milwaukee
surveyors are at work laying out the line
from Lyman county west to the Black
Hills. Before long the line will be en-
tirely located aud if it is not possible for
the tracklayers to do that part of the
work this summer it will be done as
early as possible next spring.
Mr.. Petrie says there is great interest
in the probable railroad extension in
South Dakota. He says that many peo.
pie are of the opinion that the North =.
western is going to build west from
Pierre to the Black Hills. He said one
man who seemed to be in a position to
know offered to bet him that the North
western would not build to the Hills ac-
cording to an agreement effected be-
tween the heads of the two railroads.
Mr.. Petrie says the Milwaukee is max
ing great progress with its Lyman coun-
ty extension. The trestle work of the
bridge at Chamberlain is practically
completed and the big boating span
which is to be the draw of the bridge is
to be put into place today. 1t is expect
ed that the tracklaying gang will reach
Oacoma by July and then it will pro-
ceed at the rate of six miles day

The following law was passed by the
1908 legislature "Be it enacted by the
legislature of South Dakota that every
person who sells, gives away or furnish
es in any manner tobacco in any form,
whether as smoking or chewing tobacco,
cigars or cigarettes, or snuff, or furnishes
any substitute for tobacco of which to-
bacco is an ingredient, to any child un-
der sixteen years of age is punishable lie by
fine not to exceed SIS, or imprison-
ment in the Jail not to exceed ten days,
or both such fine and imprisonment"
A great many people do not know it is
in force. 1t is indexed in the laws un.
der the head of cruelty to children, and
general enforcement would get lots OF
people in trouble.
