Governor Crawford's Arrival.

Governor Coe l.. Crawford, Of South
Dakota, was one of the distinguished
arrivals in the city Monday morning,
coming in on the Omaha passenger.
The governor was met at the train
by Mayor o. l.. Branson and other
members of the reception committee.
The party entered the carriages in
waiting and were driven to the Wild
mann. Governor Crawford was mot
by many of his close personal friends
and admirers of the city during the
day. He expressed himself as being
delighted to come to Mitchell for the
opening day of the corn palace and
was glad that his time could be SO
arranged that he could be present
at the opening of an enterprise which
he considered as one of the leading
features for the advertisement of the
resources of South Dakota. The
governor has been travelling over the
state quite a good deal this fall at
tending county fairs and various
public meetings, where he has deliv-
cred addresses, aud he finds a very
contented and happy feeling among
the citizens of the commonwealth.

after the street attractions were given
for their benefit. Thousands of peo-
pie crowded around the stands on
Main street and watched the antics
of the comedians.
People are not depending wholly on
the excursion trains to get to Mitchell
as was demonstrated Monday after
noon when the south and east trains
arrived. Both trains carried extra
coaches for the corr palace visitors.
The Milwaukee west and north trains
this morning brought in many peo-
pie, who We're picked up along the
line in punches of 20 to 25, and by
the time the trains got to Mitchell
the coaches were crowded.
Over the Omaha road this morning
there We're a large number came in
on the regular train, which makes
excellent connections for the palace
attractions. The railroads have given
Mitchell about all it could ask for
in the way of excursion trains and
people are taking advantage of the
opportunity to get here. Tomorrow
the Omaha will run an excursion
from Hawarden. Iowa, and the Mil
waukee will run two, one from Can
ton and the other from Sioux City.

TWO BIG EXCURSIONS
One From Platte and Armour ane
the Other Came Down From Alb
erdeen With Big Crowds.

The way people are coming into
the city on the various excursion
trains indicates that Mitchell's corn
palace Is still a popular method of
waukee road and they both reached
the city on time, thus giving the
visitors a good full day in the city.
One train came from Platte and Ar
mour, and the other came down from
Aberdeen. The Platte and Armour
train was filled to the brim and fully
a thousand people were packed in the
cars. The Aberdeen train had a num-
Der hat was just as large.
On the south excursion train two
bands came along the Tyndall Concert
band and the Armour band. Both of
the bands have been on the street
during the day furnishing some
splendid music. Bringing the bands
along makes the excursion trains
that much jollier.
When the trains reached the CITY
the people went up town and shortly

ARRIVAL OF Mr.. sousA
The Great Bandmaster and His Ban
Reached the City via the Omaha
Monday Morning

With the arrival of the Omaha
passenger train Monday at 1920
John Phillip Sousa and his band
reached Mitchell to play the weeks
engagement at the corn palace. There
was a large crowd OF people present
at the depot to greet Mr.. Sousa and
the individual members of his band,
many of whom had made acquain-
tances in Mitchell on their former
visit.
The band arrived in two Pullman
palace cars, with a baggage car for
the equipment of the organization.
Mr.. Sousa was very kindly greeted
by the officers of the corn palace and
friends and himself and his party
were placed in the automobile driven
by Mrs. G. A. Dawson, while the
lothers were placed in cars of Louis
Beckwith and ID. b. Miller and taken
to the Widmann, where they will
make their headquarters for the
week. Mr.. Sousa was accompanied
by Miss Allen and Miss Powers.
At the hotel Mr.. Sousa expressed
his pleasure toathe editor of the Re-
publican on coming back to Mitchell.
The great bandmaster is looking in
fine health and he said that he was
ready to cope with the splendid bus
mess that he anticipated the corn
palace would do. Speaking of the
corn palace Mr.. Sousa said that down
in Plttsburg, where he just closed
his annual engagement at the expo
sition, the corn palace and Mitchell
received some generous advertising.
1t was stated through the papers that
Mr.. Sousa would have to close his
engagement on Friday evening, one
day earlier than usual, in order for
him to reach Mitchell, S.. D., where
he was to play a weeks engagement
at Mitchell corn palace. At first
the people did not understand what
was meant by the corn palace and
Mitchell they had not heard of. After
the announcement was made several
times, the people commenced to look
up the town out west that could af-
ford to take the great bandmaster
away from them, and wondered what
kind of a town Mitchell could be
that was able to keep the organiza-
ton just as long as places of much
larger proportions. Mr.. Sousa says
he anticipates a very pleasant week
with the corn palace and the neople
of Mitchell and the thousands of
strangers who will be coming and
going throughout the week.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1907-09-27

tinctive personality all its own-iust
as the bandmaster i%nterprets it in
his characteristic way. The rest of
the program for the week contains
some Of the very best things in Mr..
Sousa's repertoire. and he is furnish
ing the citizens of this city and the
state with the same class of music
that the band plays in any of it's
eastern engagements. Mr.. Sousa
says that he discovered on his first
trip into this section three years ago
that there was a high appreciation
of the classics and the more dignifed
grade of music, while he throws in
quite often something of the lighter
vein.
The specialties are now put on
at the close of the Sousa band con
cert. Johnny West, the black face
comedian, does a stunt that brings
out the laugh from the people and his
work seems to give satisfaction. One
OF his specialties is to ask for a hat
when about SO will come tumbling
down from the fly gallery and with
them he plays a sort of a bell solo.
The Great Santell, the mar of
muscle, gives a fine exhibition of
muscular control in physical exer-
else and Their displays his marvellous
strength with heavy dumbells, hand
ling them with seeming ease. With
"a man suspended on each arm, an
other across his shoulders and a
fourth hanging to his back he walks
around the stage and thus ends his
act of the great strength he displays.

A GREAT CROWD TUESDAY
The Palace Building Was a Sea of
Faces When Concert Opened for
the Afternoon.

The oldtime crowd was in the corr
palace this afternoon, and which
eve way one looked a sea of faces
greeted the vision. The people had
come to the corn palace en- masse
and the great building was practically
filled, there being just a few vacant
seats on the outer edges on the lower
floor and upstairs in the balcony. 1t
looked like the former days of the
palace when the building was throng-
ed day after day. The crowd today
is an exceptionally large one for the
second day.
The audience was enthusiastic over
the playing of the Sousa band, and
the encores that it demanded nearly
doubled the length of the afternoon
program, but MIR. Sousa was in an
amiable frame of mind and very kind
ly yielded to the many requests for
additional numbers. The playing of
the band received the closest atten-
ton and it was given an ovation af-
ter the playing of THE Chariot
Race" written by Mr.. Sousa.
The solo numbers by Miss Powers
and Miss Allen were greatly appre-
ciated and they responded to %encores.
One of the gems of the afternoon
was the sextette from Lucia" by
Messrs. Clarke. Zimmerman, Mill
house, Williams, Roeder and Perfect
TO, and the duet by Messrs. Clarke
and Zimmerman for the cornet and
trombone was equally as good.
Tomorrow a large crowd is expect
ed to arrive in the city for the palace.
and an excellent program has been
arranged for by the band.

A GATHERING Of LEADERS
Many of the 1nsurgent Leaders Came
to the City Today on a Miss
ion of Importance.

In tue city Thursday there was a
gathering of insurgent leaders on a
mission that is said to be of con-
siderable Importance in the political
field. According to the information
that is given out from semi-oilicial
sources the leaders are going to reach
an agreement on the candidate for
governor whom the insurgent wing
of the party will place before the
people at the June primaries next
yaer. There has been more or less
discussion in the air for several
months on the possibilities of the
gubernatorial nominee and evidently

A WELL LIGHTED STREET
Nam Street in the Evening is a Yer,
Attractive Thoroughfare With
Its. Lights.

In all the previous years that the
cor palace has been held the absence
OF Examinations on Main street has
been the only weak feature, but this
year that has been overcome in a
manner that is highly satisfactory to
the visitors. There are $500 incan-
descent electric lights burning on the
street every night and they create a
very beautiful picture when they are
all turned on. For a distance Of five
blocks on both sides Of Main street,
extending from the Milwaukee depot
to the corr palace building a blaze Of
light is strewn over tie pathway OF
the visitors. The lights are alter
mated In colors Of red, white and
blue globes, and sanding at one end
OF the thoroughfare and looking
down through the maze Of lights one
is impressed with the idea that the
city council and the cor palace
committee die a very wise and ap-
propriate thing when they joined
their interests in providing some
thing attractive for the evening.
Mitchell is the only city in the
state which has made an effort
illuminate its streets for the benefit
of its visitors and the many COM
pliments that are offered we'll repavs
for the expense that has been In
Cured on that account. With the
corr palace committee owning the
wires and glopes the Illuminated
streets car always be assured for the
week Of the corr palace.
