CruikSlldnk Gets Hurt

Norman Cruikshank, the Bookings
boy with the South Bend, Indiana
team of the Central league, is certainly
making good according to the South
Bend papers. In recent game in
which he played left field, he made a
three-bagger and single, and scored
three runs. In this game he turned
his ankle, and the South Bend Times
describes the accident as follows:
One feature only was source of
grief to the insanatics. That was the
injury to Cruikshank, which put him
out OF the game. 1t happened in the
third scene when the handy kid from
Dakota was scoring on a bang to right
field by Tieman. The play was too
close to be comfortable and Cruik was
forced to leave his feet. In doing so
he turned his ankle badly. Cruik's
limb is not seriously to the bad and a
few days rest will put him in shape
again. At least, it is so to be hoped :,
as he has demonstrated that there are
some good things in the Dakotas.

.PICKEREL SEEKS KNOWLEDGE
Matriculated at Grade School and When
Put in Class With Gold Fish
PROCEEDS TO DEvOUR CLASSMATES
And Has to SummarIy Expelled. Came
in by Way of Cellar

A. T.. Vinegar, the janitor at the
school house, made quite discovery
one day this week while at work in
the boiler room in the basement. Mr..
Vinegar noticed something Hopping
around in the couple OF inches of
water which cover the floor, and when
he picked it up in his hand he found
it was small pickeral about two
inches long. Several theories have
been advanced for its presence in the
cellar, but the most reasonable one is
that it followed the open sewer leading
from the creek to the main city sewer
and from there into the school house
sewer which has its opening in the
boiler room. Mr.. Vinegar placed the
little fellow in a glass jar and pre-
sented it to Miss NortOn's grade, and
the kids have named him cripple"
During the first couple OF days OF his
captivity he was put in a jar with q
couple OF goldfish, but had to be given
quarters OF his own, as he started in
to devour his fellow boarders by
degrees. beginning with their tails
and fins.

This Ought to End It

Last Saturday this section was Wis
tied by the worst snow storm OF the
year. 1t started to rain late Friday
night, turning into snow, and when
our citizens arose Saturday morning
the ground was covered with three or
four inches of the beautiful. Itsnowed
hard all day and part of Sunday, and
altogether there was about a foot on
the level. Saturdays snow was ac-
companied by wind, which drifted it
badly, and at times made the storm
look like regular old.fas hioned bliz-
zard. The weather came out warm
Monday morning, and last night the
snow was about gone. This tail-end
OF winter storm was a bad blow to the
farmers, especially those on the low
lands, and it will be some time before
they can gettO work in the fields. Only
about One-half OF the seeding is done
in this county, and it will make very
backward spring. 1t is not thought
that the snow and following moisture
has injured the seed already in the
ground.

forward in the securing of great
musical organizations by engaging

building. The orchestra will give

singers in the University and the city

entitled to great credit for the move in
this direction. Thomas orchestra is
known the world over as the greatest
orchestra extant and thousands OF
people in this section of the state will
take advantage Of the opportunity to
go to Mitchell and hear this grand
organization.

YOUARE TO GET SIX FOR TWO
And Every Number viii be HIGH Class
ana Entertaining
IN Y. N. c. A.-Y. v. c. A. COURSE
You Should Buy Course Ticket and
Enjoy the Treats Offered

The Young Mems and Young
Women's Christian Assn's., of the
college are endeavoring for the next
year to put six numbers on the College
Lecture Course for $500. Already
five Ofthe numbers have been selected,
as follows:
Mr.. Adrian NJ. Newens, a Monolog-
ist and Humorist, who was at both
Mitchell and Huron this past year
and pleased so we'll that he has again
been placed on the course for next
year.
Mr.. Thos. Brooks Fletcher, who
lectures on THE Martyrdom OF Fools"
"The Modern Judas" and 1.-THE
Tragedies Of the Unprepared." Mr..
Fletcher though a new man upon the
lecture platform has made good and
met with great success, because first
he has something to say, second, he
has the oratorical ability, third, he
delivers his lectures with such intense
tragic earnestness.
Judge Ben B. Lindsey OF the Denver
Juvenile Court, who lectures on the
"Misfortunes of Mickey. Lindsey
is know as the friend OF the children
and is the man whose work in the
Juvenile Court at Denver is solving
the problem Of the bad boy.
The Whitney Bros. Quartette, which
is classed as the best on the road.
The kathrine Ridgeway Co., Miss
Ridgeway and her company were here
three years ago and rendered such a
fine entertainment that we have been
wanting since to put her on the course
but have been unable to do 80 on
account of booking the course with
some other bureau.
These are the FIVE numbers which
have already been selected and exceed
by $50 aud 500 the courses of 1866
and 1867.
The sixth number under consider
alton is the Colonial Octette consisting
OF male and ladies quartette,
dr,ss Z in colonial costumes, render
ing selections separately and together.
To put such course on the market
it will be necessary to sell at least 400
season tickets. We trust that every
body will be willing if possible to
sign up for tickets next year, when
canvassed during the next week. The
price is so low that one intending to
60 to only three OF the numbers will
profit by taking a season ticket.

And Feel that Shoe viii be on other
Foot Next Year

The college debating team composed
OF Messrs. Sperb, Dillmsn and Salmon,
were defeated in the first annual de-
bate with iankton college at Yankton
last Friday evening. The decision Of
the judges was two to one. The ques-
ton for debate was the compulsory
arbitration OF disputes between EN-.
ployers and employees, and the
Bookings team defended the negative.
iankton college was represented by
Messrs. Warren, Deiman and Amund-
son. The judges were +. c. Erickson
OF Elk Point, r. B. Tripp Of Yankton,
and S. E. Morris OF Mitchell, and
Judge Bartlett Tripp Of Yankton,
acted as chairman. At the close Of
the debate Mr.. Trip made graceful
speech, complimenting the debaters
Of both sides upon the accuracy and
effectiveness OF their presentation OF
the arguments pro and con on the
question.
The Brookings team returned home
Saturday night not at all disheartened
over their defeat. They feel that they
fought good fight, and the fact that
they received the vote OF one OF the
three judges shows that the debate was
very close. Yankton will send its
team here next year.

Last Chance to Join the Army.

Captain Williams Of Co. G, wishes
us to say that all those who are con-

shape for the state encampment in
July, and no new men will be taken
after next week. There are 4S men in
the company at present, and Capt.
Williams hopes to increase the roll to
60 in order to make a good showing
at WatertOwn. Capt. Williams is
planning on taking his men for a
practice march some time in May.
The company will leave here some

morrow they meet the Morningside
college team. The team is not in the
best of shape, as they have not been
able to get any out Of door work for
neAYiy a week, and as the Morning

this year a close meet should result.

INDIANS SCALPED
BY Juneau's Braves Last Friday Afternoon
at College Athletic Park
AND THE VERY NEXT DAY II SHOWED
So That Game Scheduled for Saturday
Had to be Called Off

TIE college base ball team opened
the season Friday afternoon by a
victory oyer the Pipestone Indians at
the college athletic park. The score
was 4 to 3. The game was interesting
throughout and both teams put up a
good fielding game considering the
heavy field. With the exception OF the
second inning ROssback, the college
pitcher, pitched good ball, and held
the Indians to FIVE hits. The Indian
pitcher also twirled good ball, but he
had one bad inning, the fifth, when
the home team got to him for seven
clean hits, netting four runs. The
Indians punched four hits on Ross sbach
in the second inning, which, together
with an error, gave them their three
runs.
The college team presented rather
patched up appearance, Manager
Rieneke being out OF the game, which
necessitated q shift in both the infeld
and outfield. In the third inning
Anderson, the catcher, and Thayer
and Rossbach came together while
running after short foul near the
third base line, and Anderson was
obliged to retire from the game with a
split nose.
1t was originally intended to play
two games, one Thursday and one FRI
day, but the wet weather made it
necessary to postpone Thursdays
game until Saturday. With foot Of
snow on the ground the game Satur-
day was out of the question, and the
Indians left for home on the morning
train.
