MITCHELL WAS TOO FAST
High school Boys From the Capita
city Couldn't Cross the Line
Of Mitchell Saturday.

Mitchell, 55.
Pierre, O..
That is the result OF the game Of
football Saturday afternoon between
Mitchell and Pierre. The boys came
down from the capital city with
the idea. that they could win from
Mitchell. Just how good their jud1-
ment was is shown by the score. Still
PierY? has done as we'll as any other
team That has played against Mitch
ell, for none Of them have as yet
crossed the Mitchell goal line.
Saturday was not an ideal days..for
football. for the wind was blowing
hard and cold and 1t had the effect
of keeping down the atten1nace. BY
reason Of the heavy wind Mitchell
could not use her forward pass to
any extent and when they failed TO
make 1T work there was a penalty
attached.
The game vas callel at 4:o5
O'Clock. S ieeks winning the toss and
defended the west goal. 1t took just
abort a minute for Mitchell 10
discover the strength of Pierre, for
IN that short space of time Sheeks
scored a touchdown. Nolt got into
the first play by catching the ball
and making s yards, then Sheeks
went 5 yards through the left tackle.
and failing on a forward pass, the
ball went to Pierre. They immedi-
atelv tried Mitchell's line and made a
yard gain through right guard, and
then two yards around right end.
Finding the line %impre9nable for the
necessary gain, Pierre punted the
ball, which went wild and Notson
fell on the pigskin. Nolt went IS
yards round Pierre's right. and then
Sheeks went 10 yards for the first
touchdown, Nolt falling to kick goal.
When score was sent to Is to 0, 1t
was done by Sheeks making a forty
yard run for a touchdown. 1t was
q vigorous play that sent the score
TO 20 to o.. Pierre kicked to Mitchell
at east goal Nolt returned with
he ball Is yards. Dicks on was sent
through right tackle for Is yards,
and Vassar tore open Pierre's line
fort yards. while Dickson added 8
yards more, and the line was bucked
~ more by Cook, and then Notson
added5syards, while Vassar increased
at 8 more. By this time the boys
were down near the goal line, whom

THROUGH TRAIN SERVICE
That the Milwaukee Road
Expects to Start Through Trains
to Rapid City.

There is ruinor down around the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul depot
to the effect that the road will estab-
lish a through passenger train service
to the Black Hills country within a
couple of weeks. This has been
talked of before but up to the present
time nothing has ever come of the
talk. Ever. since the line was finally
completed to Rapid City, it has
takeE three days to make the trip.
The first stop over night is made at
Chamberlain, and the next morning
the run IS made to Murdo, where
another stop Of a night occurs, and
the following morning a train goes to
Kadoka, where another stop is made.
The next morning a tram is run
from Kadoka to Rapid City.
Ike ground for the 1umor that a
through service is to be established
is the fact that General Manager
Underwood and Superintendent Ed
son. OF the White River Valley line,
have Just started on a trip over to
Rapid City, Mr.. Underwood coming
out from Chicago Monday evening
for the special purpose of accompany
ing Mr.. Edison over that division.
The condition Of the roadbed will
be looked into and most of tine
arrangements made for the running
Of the trains.
It is stated that the service will
be run from Chicago to Rapid
City. At the present time train No.
3 leaves Chicago al 1925 p. m. and
arrives at Sanborn, Iowa, at $40
p. NJ, where it stops. 1t is the idea
to run this train on through to
itchell, reaching here about 10:3O
or II O'Clock and running it in
tt rough to Rapid City, arriving
there the next morning. From
Mitchell the train will carry a
sleeper to Rapid City. The train
leaving Rapid City for the east will
depart in the morning about 9
O'Clock. reaching Mitchell about
10 O'Clock and arrive at Sanborn the
following morning to connect with
the Chicago passenger which now
leaves there at 500 q. III. 1t is
understood that the passenger now
running daily between Sioux. Falls
and Mitchell will be taken of when
the new service starts. The Mil.
waukee road will have the shortest
line from Chicago to the Hills coun-
try and when it gets the service

score was SIS to o. A few moments

score was So to o. A few moments
after time was called.
The game was a splendid exhibition
on the part Of Mitchell, while Pierre
made a poor showing, and but once
was she able to make her first down.
Howes and Collins played the most
OF the game for Pierre, while Sheeks.
Nolt, Dickson and Notson we're the
chief stars for Mitchell.
The lineup is as follows:
Pierre-Thomas, left end; Middle

Next Saturday Mitchell goes to
Huron and on Nov. %, Mitchell will
meet Aberdeen at Red6eld for the
championship game OF the state.
The BOYS are arranging to run a
special train up there and they con
fidently hope to take up a zig crowd
of rooters. 1t is the intention to
secure the Redfeld band and they
will wear the Mitchell colors. There
ought to be 200 rooters 20 up that day.

established it will GET tile largest
proportion of the business.

proportion Of the business.
There is another impro cement
that is anticipated in the running
of the trains from the east and south,
and it has it's inception from a ride
chat Manager Underwood took On
coming out west. He came in on
the south train Monday afternoon,
which continually lost time after it
left Sioux City,, on account OF the
engine failing to make sufficient
Steam to carry the load. 1t has been
the general rule that the east and
south trains have been late right
along this fall and in fact through
the sumner, due simply to the I'M
usually large amount Of passenger
business and the inadequacy Of the
motor power to meet it. After Mr..
Underwood RODE all the afternoon on
a train that was continually losing
time, he got some idea as to the
cause. He had a conversation with
Superintendent Beardsley, who was
90 the train at the time, and 1t gave
the superintendent a pretty strong
idea that his division running up to
Mitchell was te have larger engines
to handle the business, and bring
the trains IN on time.
On the eastern division of the Iowa
and Dakota larger engines have just
been added that will doubtless aid in
making better time en- the trains
coming west.
1t is believed that the through
train service to the Hills country
will be established by Dec. l with a
very fine train equipment, and which
will afford the people Of the state a
splendid opportunity to make the
trip over to the Hills in a very com.
Portable way.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1907-11-15

presumed, however, that Sioux City
is scheduled for a game on that day.
Here is the football comment OF the
Tribune:
Their protest, since their return
home, listens something like that
put up by the Sioux Falls crowd,
which was recently given a trimming
here. Everything except grand lar
ceny and murder was charged against
the officials in that game A few
days later Sioux Falls went up to
Mitchell and we're givon a walloping
35 to 0 that probably made 'em think
twice. Anyhow they didn't charge
crookedness against the Mitchell
officials, for the score was so one
sided that it wouldn't look we'll in
print.

Mitchell Has Great Team.

Speaking OF Mitchell, which Sat-
urday whipped the Pierre eleven, IS
to 0, why woundn't it be a good idea
to arrange a game between that team
and Sioux City high. 1t is certain
Sioux City, 10y holding the Grove to
a tie, has proved themselves as
strong a high school team as there
is in Iowa. They haven't oeen
beaten this season. The Mitchell
eleven have simply run over anything
put against them this year and a
contest between these two teams
would pack Mizzou park full! to over--
flowing. and besides resulting in
great financial benefit to both
organizations, would determine
which Of the two is the real
s'cha,ups" of the northwest. Sioux
City has an open date between now
and Thanksgiving and il Mitchell
has one, say a week from next Satur.
day. the fans here would enjoy seeing
them get together. This is merely
a suggestion and without official
sanction Of the Sioux City coaches
and principal of the high school.

LITTLE HOPE
FOR MAN LOST
ON THE DESERT

A rescue party which left Wonder
several days ago In search of W. s.
Edwards, whose shoes and coat were
found by A. n. Reeves. about three
hours drive north of Horse creek,
last week, have. returned to camp
and report that they were unable to
find any trace of the man beyond
the first find, and after following his
trail across the desert for several
niles it was finally lost in the dense
sagebrush. Since then his trail has
been discovered by prospectors re-
turning from the Black Rock desert
country, on their way into camp. Mr..
Stuart, who was seen, reports that
to the east of Dixie he came upon
the barefoot trail of a man evidently
in distress. At places the footsteps
were long and firmly placed like
those of a man running, while again
they became hardly as long as a
child's and were zigzag and stagger-
ing.
He followed the trail for some dis
lance, but not being aware of Ed
wads' condition, did not prosecute
the search very far. He reports hay-
ing met two men with a team who
had crossed Edwards trail, and who
at once saw something was wrong.
They made camp and unhitched their
team. and each made a circle of
about sixteen miles to find him. They
found places where he had dug in
the sand with his fingers in his ef-
forts to find water, and finally came
to the place where his strength was
rapidly failing and he could no long
er walk, but was dragging himself
along on his hands and knees. The
imprint of his fingers and knees were
plain, and to men accustomed to
reading the signs of the desert, un-
mistakable.
They followed him to where he
reached hardpan, where they could
no longer trace his course, and after
searching the crevices in the ada
cent rocks, were obliged to give up
the search without finding him or
his body.
There can no longer be any doubt
that the man has become food for
the coyotes before this; otherwise
some trace of his body would have
been discovered. 1t is said that
when men are lost on the desert
without water, and the pangs of
thirst first assail them, they inva-
riably remove their shoes as the first
effort to obtain relief from their
fearful sufferings, and after that the
remainder of their clothing newt
ably follows at diminishing inter
walls. until either the blackened or
swollen body of the sufferer is found
by rescuers. or else his bones are
later stumbled across by some hardy
traveller. The trail of clothing has
more tnan once saved the life of a
victim of the desert and enabled the
rescue party to reach the wanderer
Miner.

That was delicately put" he said
referring to a remark that indirectly
cast the blame for the panic on a GER

"A footman called his master up

MUST STAY IN JAIL
FOR BEATING A WOMAN

According to Alice Kelly, A. G. Oh
sen treated her most brutally. The
woman had Olsen arrested and he
was brought before Justice Cart
wright yesterday

complaining witness, Olsen attacked
the woman, striking her in the face.
She stated that after he had knocked
her down he kicked her.
Olsen testified that the Kelly wo-
man and a companion talked about
him, making insulting remarks con-
corning him. She stated she was
talking about another person and
that he was entirely wrong in his al
legations.
Justice Cartwright found Olsen
guilty and sentenced him to pay a
fine of SIP and costs. He didn't
have any loose change, so will have

STAMP MILL FOR
THE Duplex MINES.

c. Fred Cotton, Of the Duplex
mines. this week set up at the stamp
mill a new 15 horse power dynamo
of seven and one-half kilowatts, says
the Searchlight Bulletin. This makes
the sixth dynamo on the property
and will assist the others in fur
nishing light both above and below
ground and for various other work.
Mr.. Cotton states thai the Fraction
shaft is now down 2S5 feet and Is
not to have rest till the S00-foot
level is reached. Electric lights will
not be strung in the Fraction till one
or two more levels have been opened
out.
In response to an inquiry as TO
the coming new shaft that is to be
sunk on the east side of the hill and
to be the mogul of all, he said he
was seriously considering the S art
ing of that in short time and not
waiting till next year, as before an
nounced.
