COUNTY ATTORNEY GETS Busy

Selling Liquor on Sunday and xmn
ming Gambling Room is Infosxn-
tion Charged Against C. d. Fav.
child
Last Sunday, Sheriff Ed. A.
Murray served papers on G.. D.
Fairchlld, charging him with sell.
ing intoxicating liquors on Sum-
Gay and runningagam blingroom.
There were several other
counts against the same party.
The specific date in the hearing
regarding the sale of liquors was
Sunday, Oct. 20, 1907.
A large array of witnesses
were subpoened and one or two
got out of town on Sunday nights
trains, before the sheriff could
get them.
The hearing was set for Mon.
day. 1t was however adjourned
to Tuesday. Justice Blesers Of
flee room being too small, the city
hall was used. The preliminary
examination began Tuesday fore.
noon. Attorney George Rix Of
this city and Attorney Frank
McNuIty, Of Sisseton, represent
ed the state and Attorneys Thos.
L. Bouck and Thad L. Fuller
we're counsel for G. D. Fairchild.
Upon being examined the wit.
nesses could not remember just
what they did on Sunday, Octo-
ber 20, 1907. The little back
room was something they had no
definite idea about. True, some
of them had been there at one
time or another, but whether it
was Sunday or not they did not
know-possibly it was. The only
thing one had called for YVES Q
bottle-and when questioned a.
to it's contents could not say what
it was-perhaps malt. Perhaps
nothing. Some had been in Q
room such as was described by
the state and there might have
Oeen table, chairs, ice box, ETC.,
in it. No one knew exactly. They
paid sometimes but their credit
seemed to be pretty good for
many times they didn't remem-
Der paying. Thus the examine
tions ran along.
In the afternoon further ex-
animation was waived and the
cases taken to the circuit court
which ccnvenes next Tuesday.
States Attorney Bentley has
promised further shake up if
the saloon keepers do not abide
strictly by the law hereafter.

Excelsior Club

The mem bers of the club had
the good luck to be the
guests of Mrs. Farnham at her
pleasant home in the country,
Nov. 1st. The first thing that
demanded attention was fine
dinner and not a single club
mem Der has a poor appetite
when it comes to chicken and
pumpkin pie. After dinner an
hour was spent socially and then
attention was given TO the regu-
lar program. Roll call was re-
sponded to with ghost stories
followed by an interesting sketch
of Ralph Waldo Emerson by Mrs.
Ackerman. Mrs. Mills gave a
solo and a beginning of the Haw-
thorne discussion was made.
The subject "Scarlet Letter. was
laid over for discussion at the
meeting in four weeks. After
disposal of business the adjourn
mert was taken to meet with
Mrs. Mills, Nov.>13.

HIGH SCHOOL DOINGS
AS SEEN, HEARD AND REPORTED BY
"ONE OF THE BUNCH"

"ONE OF THE UNCH."
Horatio Traggitt has returned to
school after long illness.
Miss Nathelia Bleser and Miss
Mildred Reiuhart visited High school
Wednesday.
Miss Eizenger, of Chicago, III has
taken up her work as an instructor in
the High school.
The total enrolment is now one
hundred and thirty-four.
Robt. Cruise visited the High school
Tuesday.
Logan Prevey has entered the
Junior bunch. And -the-wa,, this
causes the others to cease using the
term ''The Skidoo Bunch" when
speaking of the juniors.
The reporter desires to place large
collection of relics aud curios in the
library and urges the students who
have curios, coins or relics of any
kind to bring them up and hand them
either to Mr.. Clark or the writer, who
will see that they are properly cared
for.
The High School Mandolin club is
deserving of praise for their excellent
music. May their enthusiasm and in
terest.in high school affairs never
wane. 1t seems that we are lacking q
few such enthusiasts, but then-there
always is dead element to every as
sociation and organization of any
kind.
The reporter had the exquisite
pleasure of witnessing the game of
basket ball played q week ago by two
of the "boy" teams. 1t was indeed q
pleasure to see the boys attempt to
show their skill and knowledge of the
game. The writer said lit was rank"
and be still stands by it. 1t is no cred
it to school to have a basket ball
team whose members cannot distin-
guieh difference between basket ball
and foot ball.
Sure, and that Freshman bunch be
lieve in expansion Mr.. Alvin Swan
SOP and Mr.. Joseph w. Swanson en-.
rolled as members during the past
week. TIE membership O. this class
numbers something like fifty four or
fi7e bright, intelligent students. Oh
my! And while we are talking about
the freshmen, perhaps this would be q
good time to compliment them on their
pretty chrome. Don't you remember
the Freshman class of 1906 rejected
''Hiawatha" in preference for that
daub of green and yellow printers ink,
about year ago.

Mayor Meehan has been in

regarding the necessity of a
fagman at this crossing. A
large electric bell was placed at
this crossing some months ago,
but like in other places did not
prove of any value; owing 70 the
large amount of switching that
is done daily the bell was
ringing by the hour and people
paid little or no attention to it.
