Performance in Her Piano

Chapel hall at the University
THURSDAY evening was Tiled by Uni
verslty and town people to attend
the musical given by Miss Hazel
Lathrop. Miss Lathrop finishes her
course in Instrumental music this
year and her work on tins occasion
places her high in the rank of those
who have graduated in previous years.
Her program was one Of wide range,
in which numbers by Straus ,-Schutt,
Chopin, Raft and Hoffman were rell-
dered with a skill and interpretation
by one whose talent in music has
been brought to d very high stand
ard. 1t was an arduOus task to per-
form the brilliant numbers on the
program without a diminution in
ner work, but Miss Lath1op proved
equal to the demands of the occasion
and retired from the evenings per-
Torrance with additional laurals as
a pianiste. LISTS "Polonaise Her.
oique, "the ave Marie" by Strauss
Schutt, the two "Etudes'' by Chop
in, all brought into execution the
rare talent of Miss Lathrop and her
playing appealed to the lovers of the
piano. 1t was a magnificent success
and the young pianiste is entitled to
great praise for her attainments ON
the piano.

81. a. Ustrud, the county superin-
tendent of schools of Minnehaha
county, has just commenced suit
against Jones g. Emmke, proprietors
Of the Cataract hotel in Sioux Falls
to recover the sum OF $40, 900. The
complaint alleges that during the
past three. years gambling has been
going on in the Cataract hotel where
by the sum Of 50, 900. 90 has been lost
in poker games. Section 39s of the
penal code makes it possible for the
school fund Of the state to profit by
gambling, in that the county super
i%ntendent can bring suit against the
parties for five times the amount
that has been claim ed to have been
lost in these gambling transactions.
The states attorney has taken charge
of the case, which is the first that
has ever been instituted under the
law, and the result OF it will be
watched with interest.

MORE RAILROAD EXTENSION
The Milwaukee Has Commenced
Building North From Armour
10 White Lake.

1t seem To be an easy matter tol
the Chicago, Milwaukee \ ST. Pau
railroad TO take up building projects
and shove them through in 4 hurry.
While work has barely commenced OF
the extension west Of Chamberlain,
q report comes from Sioux City that
another extension is actually under
Wy from Armour north to White
Lake. The Sioux City Tribune gives
the details of the new extension and
stated that Two trains were started
for there cairyi ing graders supplies
and material. and that Yesterday
nifty workmen We're sent to Armour
to do grading. Dirt commenced to
lily at Armour today on the extension
from that point to White Lake.
Harry f. Hunter also announced in
Sioux City that another extension of
the Milwaukee road was to connect
the towns of Platte and Orient, pas
sing through Kimball. These lines
will shorten the route flom Cham
berlain to Sioux City in handling the
stock business of the range country.
The opening of the country by
these two lines will affo,d Mitchell
a greater opportunity as a distribute
Ing center and in good time will
afford a great benefit to Mitchell.
Referring to the e map that has
just been issued by the Milwaukee
its extension west of Cham
berlain, the Tribune has the follow
ing to say:
The new maps show the extension
which will be made this year,
through Lyman County Ito the head
of Medicine creek, a distance of
about sixty miles. The road crosses
the river at Chamberlain, over the
southern part Of American Island,
and passes through Oacoma, follow
ing American Grow creek. For eight
miles northwest the line will run
eighteen miles directly west where
1t crosses Medicine creek. 1t will
that stream west for thirty
miles, taking a Slightly northern di-
r%ectiou, which will add six miles to-
the length OF the line.
The town of Moore, fifty miles west
Of Chamberlain, is the only one now
on the new line. Lund is
eft four miles north: Lyman four
and a half miles south: Dirkston two
miles south: Houston twelve miles
south, and Zickrlck eight miles
When the extension TO the Black
Hills is completed. it will start from
APPOINT twentY-four miles east of the
Lyman county line, and enter Stan
Iey county at a point about nine
miles west and twelve miles north of
Chamberlain. crossing the Teton
at the Stanley county line.
New towns along the portion of the
inc which is to be built this year are
being located this week by Mr.. Hunter
and j. q. Love, division passenger
md freight agent of the Sioux City
Dakota division, Among the towns
will be Hotch City, Earling. Presho
and Loveville. The latter city will
probably be the western terminus of
Jhe portion to be built this year.

The Pierre Rustler has the whole
state done to a turn on the matter Of
new railroads. In a recent issue it
told a story Of what Pierre was anti
cipating in the way of railroads. The
extension of the Milwaukee west of
Chamberlain seemed to u up the
RuStler editor that something must
be doing out that way, consequently
he sets forth the plans of about a
dozen different railroads which zane
headed toward Pierre He starts
of with the assertion that the North
Western is now planning to build to
the Black Hills. Next he says that
last year the Milwaukee built IL miles
west Of Woonsocket, ''headed towards
Pierre, expecting to extend TO Pierre
in the near future.'' Then he sees
in his dreams plans that the Great
Northern is forming to Immediately
push to the geographical center.
