witnessed the game, we are told.
Mrs. Jonas Sigurdson, of Ballard, Wash
ington, is in the city visiting relatives.
Many of the former residents of Pembina
are residing there, and employed at vari-
Gus vocations. Geo. Proctor is farming

the city, but the majority of the others
are working for wages. Mr.. Sigurdson
is in the clerk of the courts Office, IN Sc
attic.
A heavy electric and wind storm swept
down on Pembina and vicinity Wednes-
day morning, at 1:3O o'clock. that brought
nearly the entire population of the town
out OF bed, and many buildings not shell
tered swayed and squeaked like bark
in gale. The storm came from the west
and lasted half hour. Several trees
were blown down about town and more
or less damage done to garden truck.
On Tuesday night foreigne who stop
ped off at Emerson had the hard luck to
either lose or have stolen his wallet con-
tanning bout $50; draft for $500; note
for $500, and his homestead papers,
and as yet has received no word of the
missing property. 1t is likely his pocket
was picked for the package. He came
up from the south on the "dinky" that
day on his way west to took up land.

Thirteen couple of young people drove
out 20 the home of Thomas Welford's on
Tuesday evening and participated in a
social dance given by the young people
OF the family. The night was spent very
pleasantly-the heavy rain during the
night gave them all an excuse to remain
until sun-4p the next morning: The I'M
