They would make a pleasant and
valuable addition to Brookings social
circles.
Geo. Chase, government Rural
Route Inspector, was in the city Sat-
urday night on his way home to
Watertown to spend Sunday with his
family. Mr.. Chase has been trans

The Brookings people did the
handsome thing by DeSmet Saturday
by chartering a special train and
bringing a crowd OF two hundred peo-
pie, including their excellent band.
The party was made up of the best
people in Brookings and it certainly
made a good showing for that city.
De Smet appreciates the compliment
and hopes al some future time to re-
turn the courtesy.-DeSmet indie
pendent! -
The WATERFOWL Daily Public Opinion
says that''the Hawarden base ball team
went to Brookings yesterday and ad-
ministered a good drubbing to the
outfit by a score OF seven to one.
Bookings was shut out and then to be
cut down in such a game as that
ought to hold them for awhile. The
Hawarden boys play here tomorrow
and Sunday" Will the Public
Opinion tell us about those games at
WATERFOWL? We understand that
some interesting things happened up
there. Lets see, which game was 1t

L. S. Senator r. ]. Gamble of iank-
ton, was a guest at the home OF Prof.
and Mrs. E. h. Eyerly yesterday.
The senator is taking a little vacation
and visiting different parts Of the state
to find out, if possible, whether Con-
gresham Martin, of the Black Hills,
is really a candidate to succeed him
in the United States senate, as has
been announced. The REGISTER is
pleased to announce that the matter
is still in doubt owing to the fact that
it is intimated that Brookings county
may furnish tine dark horse necessary
upon occasions of this kind.
The REGISTER has had several COM
plants this last week from subscribers
in the city who failed to get their
paper. In this connection We would
say that at the request ofthe local post
Office authorities, a numberso f extra
REGISTERS are left at the postottice
each week and if subscribers fail
to find their copy in the mail box they
can procure n by a request at the
delivery window. In case they are
unable to get one in this am they
will confer a favor by reporting
promptly at the REGISTER office where
they can get a copy without charge,
and where a record is being carefully
kept of all such omissions, and each
case will be carefully investigated in
order to find out, if possible, where the
trouble lies.
The editor OF the Estelline Tribune,
who was a Brookings visitor last week,
pays our little city the following com.
pliment: "Brookings is a beautiful
CITY with its handsome buildings,
welI.kept lawns, and magnificent
shade trees and we were surprised to
note the many Improvements which
have been made since We last passed
through there. The new depot is a
beauty and this is only one OF the many
new and substantial buildings which
now adorn the city. Evidently the
policy pursued by the citizens OF
Brookings is 2 clean and progressive
one and they have a town OF which
