Captain and Mrs. Otis are leaving
Honolulu this month for the Eastern
states. Mrs. Otis will be especially
missed in church circles where for
years her voice has charmed SO many
lovers of music. She has a particular
talent for sacred work and her beau
tiful singing win never be forgotten.
Those who remember her as Miss Alice
Dyer, in Oakland, have often wonder
ed that she only confined herself here
TO her sacred music, when her voice
is equally beautiful in secular songs,
and yet proficiency in church music
is not a common art these days.

The slogan cry of the Kohala Scots
brought out a complete gathering of
the clans and all their friends in the
district as well, to celebrate the 14Sth
anniversary of the poets birth. Ko-
hala Club hall was mass of greenery
and not only the Scottish flag with its
rampant lion, but flags of all nations
peeped out from amongst the palms
and quivering bamboo leaves, showing
plainly
Burns once to Scotland did
belong.

This, too, was noticed in the friends
who had kindly consented to assist at
the concert. Their singing and accent
for the occasion was SO good that really
they must be suspected of having had
a little drop of Scotch (blood of course)
somewhere in them. Mr.. T. Black, who
acted right through as master of cere- |

The violin used by Mr.. Buchly at his
concert performances was made by
Muller, one of the most celebrated of
the violin makers of the world. The
tone has been pronounced superior by
many of the professional violinists who
have tried it. Wachuda, whose repu
tation as a master is international,
once offered Mr.. Buchly six hundred
dollars for the instrument. The concert
at the Young on February 9th promises
to be one of the best musical enter
tainments given here in years and the
seats are going rapidly in consequence.
Mr.. Buchly has surrounded himself
with artistes of known quality as mu-
sicians whose services viii add much
to the already splendid attraction pre-
sented.
With the greater part of the men in
BUR community stirred up against

NEWS OF NOTED PERSONS

Following a banquet of the National
Founders association at New York
city there was a lively half hour of
speechmaking, in which President
Roosevelt was severely criticised for
his continued advocacy of the CEN
%tralization of power in Washington by
ex-senator John c. Spooner of Wis
consin, who now is practicing law in
New York city and who was m of
the principal guests at the banquet.
William j. Bryan will accept the
Democratic nomination for president
in 1908, but, he will neither ask nor
make a fight for it. The question
that ought to weigh most, he says, is
whether his nomination will strength
en- the Democratic party more than
the nomination of some n else.
Colonel Henry Watterson, when
asked for his opinion on William j.
Bryan's tentative acceptance of the
Democratic presidential nomination,
declared that he had labored with
Bryan to have him decline the NOM
nation and to quit his dog in the
manger'' attitude.
Grover Cleveland as the Democratic
candidate for president is suggested in
political circles in Chicago. 1t is urged
that a ticket headed by Mr.. Cleve-
land, with Governor Johnson of Min
nesota for vice president, could be
elected.
Secretary Taft has arrived at Vladi-
vostok on his way home from the

THANKSGIVING Proclamation.

In accordance with the beautiful
and appropriate custom Of setting
aside a special day after the har-
vests are garnered each year as a
day upon which we can make man
ifest our gratitude to God for
manifold blessings. |, John Burke,
Governor of the State of North
Dakota, do hereby designate
Thursday, the 2Sth day Of Novem-
Der, as a day Of General Thanks
giving and prayer throughout the
state. The year. now nearly gone,
has been one of peace and plenty
in state and nation:peace at home
and abroad. universal peace:plenty
almost beyond the capacity of the
country. Providence has smiled
upon us with a bountiful harvest,
and has withheld pestilence and
disaster. Divine guidance is lift
ing the whole people up to a
higher, healthier moral plane;
making the world better and
brighter and pointing to higher
ideals in public life. On this
coming Thanksgiving Day let us
unite in praise and Thanksgiving
to God for all His kindness and
mercies, and fervently beseech
Him to bless and preserve III
people and our country.

Proposed Rural Free Delivery.

Messrs. G. F. Egge of st. Paul
and F. V. Postle of Chicago, two
gentlemen connected with the
postoffice department, are in
Underwood this week. their mis-
sion being to look over the pro-
posed rural free delivery route
from here to Hancock and Weller.
The petition with the necessary
signers for same was filed some
time ago, and the matter is Just
now assuming definite proportions.
1t is hoped their report may be
favorable, and that the new route
will be in operation before many
weeks. AS proposed it will go
from here to Hancock. returning
via Weller to the starting point,
serving all residents enroute as
per the regulations. The new
route will prove a blessing to the
patrons along it.
Later in an interview with the
postofice men they informed the
Miner editor that they had looked
over the proposed new route and
found it very feasible, and their
report to the department will no
doubt be a favorable one. They
also looked over the proposed new
route north and east, and found
that thes same conditions were
present as on the Hancock Weller
route. They remarked upon the
excellence Of our roads, and the
comparative ease with which the
CARRIER could make his rounds.
They go from here to Turtle Lake
to look oyer some lines there.
IL now seems to be up to the
patrons if they want rural free
delivery. To receive a daily rural
service seventy-fve patrons must
be served, and an average Of 1900
pieces of mail handled monthly.
1t looks like such a volume of
business will be offered here. An
other factor to contribute to the
success Of a rural route is the
reliability Of a carrier, and con-
corning this an increase has been
recently made to S75 per month as
compensation. This money, in
view Of the coming close times,
to stimulate a demand for
these positions. With good car
riers and the above volume of
business Underwood will have two
good rural mail routes in the near
future. We want them-Under-
wood Miner.

Agricultural College Notes.

Prof. T. \. Hovcrstad. who was
recently elected superintendent Of
the North Dakota farmers insti-
tutes upon the resignation Of the
former superintendent Prof. D. b.
Kaufman. is now at the college,
having an office here. Prof. How
erstad has been connected with
the Agricultural School at Crook
ston. Mimi, but has been in close
touch with the farmers Of North
Dakota as well as those Of Mime
sofa, having spoken at North Da-
kota institutes on several occasions
and having had immediate charge
for Prof. Laufman last year, owing
to the latter's illness.
Senator Dolliver, of Iowa, IA
vored the students with an inter-
esting address Nov. Z. He ex-
pressed himself as being always
particularly glad to talk to stu
dents Of a type Of college like ours
believing that they have excep-
tional opportunities. He empha-
sized the fact that by far the
majority Of our great men come
from the farm, and as an illustra-
ton mentioned that during a recent
visit to New York he made it a
point to look into the life histories
of persons in that city who were
of account, and not in a single
instance was there one who had
not come off the farm. Senator
Dolliver has a rather keen sense
of humor as we'll as very strong
oratorical ability, and his address
was greatly appreciated.
Nov. 8, the A. G. was again vic
torious in an important game Of
football. The team which they
met this time was quite a different
type from those met before, being
composed of Indians from the
Haskell Indian School in Kansas.
This team was reputed to be an
exceedingly strong one, having
been victorious in games with the
Universities Of Kansas and Texas,
and the students and people Of
Fargo expected to see a fierce
struggle. The Indians proved to
be no match for the farmers, how
ever, and were beaten by a score
Of Sc to6.
