had the weather made to order they
could not have procured better
weather than we had last Wednes-
day. The day dawne6 bright and
clear and the people from the sur
rounding country began arriving
early in the morning and by eight
o'clock an immense crowd was
thronging the streets. At nine
o'clock the band made disappearance
on the street aud commenced the
immense program of the day. After
meeting the train the band proceed
ed to the band stand where large
and attentive crowd listened to two
excellent addresses by G. B. Fon.
canon in English and Rev. A. Her
ringer in German.
After dinner the ball game be-
tween Eureka and iceland was the
drawing card. With the exception
of one inning when the Locale run in
six scores, the game was very close
and both teams worked hard. The
final score was 9 to 3 in the locals
favor.
Immediately after the ball game the
horse aud pony races and street
sports were pulled off and furnished
plenty OF amusement for the large
crowd that witnessed them.
After supper the band gave one
of their usual high class concerts
which was greatly enjoyed by a
large audience. The three dance
halls and two bowery dances which
had run all day then furnished
amusement for all those who cared
to dance, until morning. Everyone
went to their homes vowing thai
Eureka knew how to entertain most
royalty.

Monday, July 2, 1905, at about
noon, Lester McGraw, son Of Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. r. McGraw Of this
city, ans wered the summons Of his
Master and passed from this world
Of temptation and sin to dwell with
his Creator in a better and purer
land.
Lester McGraw was born at
Bowdle, s. D., July Is, 1898, aud
died at Eureka, Monday, July 2,
1905, at the age of 7 years, II mouths
and 16 days. Lester was only a
child with the brightest of futures
before him and to be stricken down
when so young and promising makes
the blow doubly hard to bear. He
had but recently recovered from an
attack of measles and had been play
ing for several days with his little
friends. A few days before his
death he complained OF a severe
headache which finally eliminated
in spinal menengitis, of which be
died.
His mother had gone to visit with
a daughter in Minnesota but short
time ago and when Lester began 10
grow worse word was sent to her
but owing to the trains from the
east not making connections was un
able to be at her boys bedside
when he died and did not arrive in
Eureka until Wednesday morning
when the funeral took place from
the Presbyterian church, conducted
by Rev. Parrott, who spoke most
comforting words to the bereaved
parents and family. The heartfelt
sympathy of the entire community
is extended the sorrowing family in
this hour of afhiction.

critlcises Longworths.

Paris,N June 30.-"The Petit
Parisien publishes an editorial
severely criticislng what it calls
the pomp and pretention" OF
the Longworth journey to
Europe. Says the writer apro-
pos of the presidents daughter
and her husband:
"The manner in which their
time will be employed is noted
in advance with a precision
which could be equaled only if
it were a sovereign, accompan-
led by her royal husband; VINO
was engaged in making a tour
outside her OVID states.
This display seems excessive,
and the young woman who
lends herself to it with such easy
grace, does not seem to be over
whelned with any Of the demo
cratic ideas of her nation.
1t is a good deal to be the
daughter of a man like Theo.
dore Roosevelt, but it is not
enough to warrant this young
person receiving any more hom.
age than is due any other equal
ly charming member of her sex.
Mrs. Longworth would show
a nobler sentiment in being
merely proud OF her father, in.
stead of seeking the fiattery
consequent upon personal grand
eur. She seems to forget that
in three years her father will re,
turn to private life, and viii
probably end his days in the
dignified obscurity which has
has characterized the declining
years of the majority of the
American presidents.
