Picnic Well Attended.

The picnic in Kudrna's grove
last Sunday was fairly we'll attend
ed by home people and those
from neigh5oring towns as well,
and all of them enjoyed the good
music, ball game and in fact all,
At about o'clock in the after,
noon a running horse race took
place on the Emile track in
which a horse owned by George
Hum took first money and Ben
Birdsell's Of Nebraska carried OF
second money. wi:ercrpon the
crowd proceeded for the grove
and there the usual way of enjoy
ing ones self took place. A ball
game between the Bon Homme
and Rezac Colts teams played;
the Colts keeping their score in
the lead; but In the 9th some mis-
understanding arose and the play
was stopped; the score then was
5 to Is.
There also was a trotting race
at about 5 o'clock in the afternson
in which the horses of Jake Rot-
schadl of this place and Joe Rip,
pie Of Lesterville were stamping
the ground with their hoofs and
resulted in a victory for Jake's
horse. This was a galloP race.
Ripple, however. was not satisfied
with the outcome and challenged
Ro,schadl in a trotting race. Jake
took him up and his horse in the
trotting feat LETT Ripple's nag in
the rear, and of course the Judges
| gave their decision accordingle
Ripple then ser up a howl and
rag-chewing contest IN which ne
was allows d the first and last word
and when he was thru all those
that were involved in the race
found out from Joe's mouth that
they cheated him Of his 5 plunks'
Thanks TO the GOODNESS OF Jake OF
Ripple would have been taught
lesson not to speak when under
an alcoholic influence. Such re-
representatives. of a town would &c
better to stay home, Tor they are
only a public disgrace for then
own town.

Wonderful is the climate oil
Sorth Dakota. So must say CIV.
cryone who has been watching
closely the fields this year from
the beginning up to the present
time. Some weeks ago the corn
fields in this vicinity presented a
spectacle that made the, farmers
shake their heads doubtfully and
in anticipation of a poor crop.
Some believed. that they will have
no trouble in, husking corn this
year as there would be none to
husk; others were more optimistic
and did not give up hope, but
patiently waited up to the present
time. They we're not disappo,nt-
ed in their expectation. For the
past four weeks the weather was
so favorable that the wheat and
oats fields today bring forth to
their ,iller an ample compensation
Tor his labor, which will be made
manifest wecn the threshing ma
chine is put in operation And
the corn fields; altho tardy, still
promise a good yield in the near
future. In comparing the condi-
tons and prospects for a good
crop of four weeks with those Of
the presen, time, what must the
Dakotan and even the outsider
say abou, this rich slater Nothing
but praise.

Great CONSERVATION was felt by

he was turning yellow. His skin
slowly changed color, also his
eyes, and he suffered terribly.

He was treated by the best doc
tors, but without benefit. Then
he was advised to try Electric
Bitters, the wonderful Stomach
and Liver remedy, and he writes:
"After taking two bottles l was

Reply of the Frederick City
Hospital Association to Prop
osition for Arbitration.

In reply to the communication
of the Frederick County Medical
Society, through its Secretary,
DR.. Ira j. McCurdy. which APP
peared in our issue of the 2nd
inst, in reference to arbitration
to decide certain matters with
a view either of the consolidation
of the two hospitals or the clos.
ing of one of them, the Frederick
City Hospital A ssocIa ion,
through its President and Sec
rotary has forwarded the follow
ing letter:
DIR. IRA j. MCCURDY, Sec'y., etc.
Dear Sir.-Your letter dated
May the 9th was received on the
afternoon of the Goth. Waving
the discourtesy shown by the
transmission of a copy of your
letter to the News prior to your
mailing the original to us, we beg
leave to make reply as follows:
First-Inasmuch as You have
refused to state with precision the
exact questions which you propose
to have submitted to arbitrator
for adjustment, and as we are
wholly uniformed and completely
in the dark as to what those
questions are, if in fact there be
any at all, we most respectfully
decline to enter blindfolded into
any agreement which may involve
us in unforeseen entanglements.
Second-We are advised that
we have no right or authority to
turn over to persons in no way
connected with this corporation
the management of its affairs,
because that management is en-.
trusted to us exclusively; and
that we are equally without
power to delegate to such persons
the prerogative to determine
whether the hospital shall be
closed. AS we have no such
right, authority or power we
must respectfully decline to enter
into an agreement binding our
selves TO the things which we are
not legally competent to do.
Third-Inasmuch as you APP
parently aim to secure a consoli-
datiOn of the two associations,
and as according to the informa-
ton impaired to us, such consOli
dation would result in our being
obliged to pay the debts due by
both of the constituent corpora
lions, we must respectfully de
cline to become party to any
agreement which would or might
involve this association in any
obligation to pay any debts which
it did not contract or incur.
In closing permit us to repeat
what we stated in a former letter
that the Frederick City Hospital
was built to be kept open, and
not to be closed upon the award
of even disinterested arbitrator;
and tina: all physicians of all
schools are cordially invited to
send their patients there for
treatment. Patients will receive
the best care and attention, and
physicians will be afforded pre-
cisely the same facilities without
distinction or discrimination.
Very respectfully,
ALFoRETTA MCCARDELL,
Pres Board of Managers.
