PYROTECHNIC BOATMEN
Unique Feature of Fireworks at Wild.
wood Tomorrow Night.

Fireworks moving on the water, a
feature of pyrotechnic displays never
before introduced in the twin cities,
will be an attraction at Wildwood to-
morrow evening.
There have been displays of water
month. but the different pieces have
been built on stationary RATS and there
has been no attempt to show figures
moving on the lake. Tomorrow even
ing, however, several elaborate moving
pieces will be displayed, including
boatrace on the lake in which the boats
move and their occupants go thru life
like rowing movements.
Every amusement feature at Wild
wood is now in running order, including
the water toboggan, popular with lake
bathers.

SYNOD IN DISPUTE
OYER PRESIDENCY
UNABLE TO DECIDE QUESTION
OF ELIGIBILITY. l
Two Professors Suggested but, Since
Neither Is Pastor Of a Congregation
Having Membership in the Synod,
Their Eligibility Is Questioned-Co Com
mittee Appointed to Consider.

The Norwegian synod grew decided,

ling with the question whether or not
Professor DR.. H. G.. Stub was to be con.
sidered eligible to the office of vice
president. Ordinarily his eligibility
would not be disputed; but just now
the office Of vice president is regarded
as being Of unusual Importance. DR.
Koren, the president, is 10 years old
and may eb obliged to retire before
the end Of his term. The election OF
vice president, therefore, means the
election Of the man who may in q
short time become the official head OF
the synod.
Of all the candidates proposed Pro
fessor DR.. Stub had the greatest mum
Der Of votes on the first ballot, the
Rev. o. P. Vangsnes was a close sec
o1d. Then the point was made that
DR.. Stub is not eligible under the con
stitution Of sba synod. This provides
that the president, and the vice pres
ident, must be pastor of a church II
the synod. DR.. Stub is an ordainee
minister and is member of the synod
but he is not pastor of a congrega
ton belonging to the synod.

Birthday Party.

Miss Florence and Master
Archie Anderson entertained
fortyfve young people last
night at their home on Eighth
street at a very happy birthday
party. After the children had
arrived Mrs. Anderson had
them appoint leaders and choose
sides. After the sides had been
chosen, one side went in the
back parlor and the other side
remained where they were. A
large sheet was pinned up be-
tween the rooms; each child
was expected to go and stand
behind the sheet and recite a
piece. This caused consider
able amusement for the young
sters. After all on that side
had spoken the other side voted
that EWart McGavren had done
the most credit to himself and
received a box of bon boxs in
reward. The other side then
took their places and all recited
pieces. Miss Francis Cannon
was voted the best and she also
received a box of bon bons.
This was followed by a two
course supper served by Mrs.
Anderson to which ample jus
tice was done by the children.
After playing a few mo- e
games the party dispersed to
their homes after having had q
very good time. This was a
very novel idea and was Ger
tainly enjoyed to the fullest
extent by the children. The
little host and hostess were re-
membered by many nice pre-
SCENTS.

w. A. Smith was a pleasant
caller today. We think Mr..
Smiths ideas on the ditch
question is about correct. He
says that if the bitches cannot
be dug as a draining district
Harrison County should go to
work and dig thier ditch to the
county line, and he claims that
the water would take care of
ITSELF when it got that far
down, as the Allen Creek ditch
would empty into the George
West Slough and from there
has a natural outlet into the
Boyer Cut Off. In this way
Harrison County would have
their bitches and benifits, and
if Pottawattimie County didn't
want to dig their bitches it
would be their own lookout.
AS water will run down hill Mr..
Smiths ideas on bitches are
correct as he is an expert in
that line.
