AMITY,

Miss Jean Cowan left on Sunday for
Ontario to visit with relatives. Her
school is closed for a six weeks vaca
tion.
The damage done by the hail storm
of last week is quite apparent now.
/ The baseball game between Amity
and Oak Valley scheduled for Friday
the 14th inst came off not withstand
ing the inclement weather and as we'll
attended. The Amitv lineup was
essentially the same as in previous
games but Oak Valley was loaded and
amongst the new players were such
semi professionals as Harvey Walker
Of Omemee and Clark Foster. who was
a star on the Bottineau team last year.
Other strong players were unexpected
ly and very questionably introduced in
the fourth inning. Our boys were pre-
pared to meet an Oak Valley team
but of course could not expect to win
out against such odds. They held
their ground we'll, however, and if the
O. v. people will meet our boys with
all home players we predict "slam-
fest such as will surprise the natives.

FRUIT EXHIBIT
AT the County Fair this Year was
the tsBest Ever ~,


The fruit exhibited at the fair sWas
grown by A. G. Burr. John aifi W.T.
liam Dinwoodie. Mr. BurrShad some
of the largest gooseberries we ever saw.
They were of the Downing variety
and fine looking berry. Mr.. Burr
also displayed White Grape currants,
Victoria Red Currants and Lineaus
Rhubarb all excellent specimens.
Mr.. John Dinwoodie's display Of
Duchess apples and Siberian crab apples
was much admired. All of the gentle
men mentioned above are patrons of
the Sherman Nursery Co., of Charles
City, Iowa, and praise their goods
very highly. w. M. Smell, block
man for the Sherman Co. and F. B.
Wartee, the house billing clerk, and
salesman were in attendance at the
fair and interested many people in the
good qualities Of their nursery stock.
The Sherman nursery is twenty years
old and strictly reliable. They are
at 800, 900. The Sherman
people will have agents here in a
week or two and no one who saw the
fruit exhibited by Messrs. Burr and
Dinwoodie will hesitate to purchase
from them.

BOOMS METIGOSHE
What Editor johnson has to say
about our Summer Resort.

In his w"ite-up Of the Chautauqua,
Editor johnson of the Omemee Herald,
after referring to the discomforts ex-
perienced and the grating which is
permitted says:
sin this connection it night be we'll
to remind the people along this branch
that Bottineau county Has summer
resort that is by fa1 more beautiful
than Devils Lake. We refer to Lake
Metigoshe, whose picturesque and
scenic features are 80 tar above those
of Devils Lake that comparisons are
odious. And Metigoshe is an ideal
fishing place. another good point over
Devils Lake. You can rent boats and
camping ground very reasonable.
There is good hotel and an equally
good restaurant there and their
charges are reasonable. And you are
at liberty to go and come when you
please; you are not locked up in bull
pen, with half dozen policemen
watching every places of ingress or
egress. Metigoshe should receive all
of the patronage that goes to Devils
Lake from this branch.

County suddenly paid the debt Of ma

long time but no one thought his
case serious. A sudden and unlocked
for hemorege was the immediate cause
of his death. Mr.. Cudhie was seventy
nine years Of age and had thus passed
the span of life. He came to Bottinean
county among the early settlers in 1887

BAND CONCERT
Given by Souris Band
Wednesday Evening.
ARE DISAPPOINTED
Not 80 large an Attendance as Antlci-
pated but q Good Concert Never
theIess and Enjoyed by all In
Attendance.

On Wednesday evening at Griener' 4
Hall The Souris Band gave an exhi
bition of their skill by way of an ex.
cellent concert as concluding portion
to one of the splen did day g prog ram
during the fair. The concert was Of
q very high order. The selections
from the Grand Scand inavian Fantasia
were superb. The selections which
are classical and therefore difficult,
were mastered excellently. The solo
work both instrumental and vocal was
we'll rendered. cold Black Joe'', !,
which nobody is ever tired of hearing
was splendidly sung by male quin-
tet consisting Of Messrs. Halldorson,
Bruce, Adams, Staubus and Halldor-
son. The blending of the two voices
in the vocal duets by Messers. Bruce
and Halldorson were very marked as
we'll as the harmony. Our space and
time would not permit us to 60 into
further details, to speak Of the tech
mic ETC., Of the other parts Of the we'll
executed program. Discrimination
was almost impossible. The only
thing calling for discrimination on
the part Of an observer was the scanty
audience which attended, and this
was by no means a reflection upon the
work Of the visitors. Our condemna-
tion Of Bottineau's treatment Of a
neighboring band has received editor
ial space in this issue. Nevertheless

FAIR
Was Attended by a big
Crowd.
RACES GOOD
The Baseball Games Between Souris and
Westhope Attracted a large Crowd
and Considerable Money
Changed Hands.

The second meeting of the Botti-
neau County Fair has passed into HIS
tory The weather was excellent and,
thanks to the gratuitous advertising
given the institution by the county
papers, the attendance was quite large.
Large crowds came from Souris and
Westhope drawn in large measure
by the ball games between the teams
of those towns. These We're quite in
teresting. The first days game re-.
suited in victory for Souris with a
score of to 1. 1t was one of the finest,
cleanest games of ball we have ever
witnessed here. The work was snappy
from start to finish. The attendance
was SO large at the first days game
that the management tracked
the game scheduled for the second day
between Bottineau and Omemee with
out even the formality of decent notice
and secured second game between
Souris and Westhope. In the second
game Souris fell to pieces badly and
could not pull themselves together in
time to save themselves from bad
beating. The score was Is to 4 but
the gate receipts were large SO the bad
treatment handed out to the teams
regularly scheduled will count for
nothing. The races were good. On
Wednesdays free for all county horse
race, Joe Messner of Omemee captured
first money, Arthur ,Berthiaume got
second and r. A.: McBrayne third.
The race for farmers horses that had
never won public money had only two
entries, Robt. McBrayne's Sir knight
and DR.. Rusk's Robert R. They won
in the order named. In the pony
race G. McNett's pony came in frst,.
William Gardner's second and AZ. E..
Hanson s,thIrd. These ponies ran off
another race yesterday for side bet
and this time Hanson's horse came
first, Gardner's second and McNett' 8
third. The races Of the second day
were closely contested. In the free for
all Berthiaume' 8 Pilot won with Joe
Messner's second and R. A. McBray-
ne's third. In the three minute class
there were three horses entered and
they finished in the following order
P. J. Ferguson's mare first; W. H.
Wicks second and. DIR. Rusk's third.
The mule race pleased everybody.
Some of the eight mules entered re-
fused to 80 round but turned and
came back to the grand stand. Mr..
Waters owned the winner of this race.
A good deal of diversion was caused
by the attempt of cowboy to ride an
outlaw broncho belonging to Warren
Moore. The cowboy ''pulled leather
from the start and measured ground
four times before he gave up. Then
Bert Colthorp, of Souris, tried it after
giving the broncho rest. He got
one fall, being thrown before he got
properly into the saddle. The next
time he got located and stayed with
it until the sucker subdued. After
this came the parade in which the
prize stock participated and a splen-
did showing was made. Time and
space forbids further mention of the
fair at this time. It was success
and we are glad of it.

VERY SAD AFFAIR
Bottineau County Woman's Mind
Unbalanced.

A very unfortunate case occurred on
the 9th June out at Lordsburg when
Mrs. James Gallagher gave birth to
twins and was in fair way to recov-
cry, when few days after mouse
dropped from the ceiling upon the
patient giving her tremendous shock,
which resulted in the unbalancing Of
her mind, and for quite while she
was very violent, so that it was thought
necessary to take her to Jamestown
Asylum, where she will have the best
attention for enc in her condition.
The affair is certainly very sad one,
the relatives have our sympathy. DR..
MacKay thinks she will recover her
reason.
