Tenth Story of the New Carter
Building, 2:30 o'clock a. m.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1907-12-06

Saturday evening Frank r.. Roher-
son was greeted by a large audience
to hear his lecture on South Ameri.
ca, as the third attraction Of the
lecture and concert course. MI,
Roberson's lecture was p%rofusely
illustrated with scenes taken by
himself while making a trip through
the important parts. and the story
that be had to tell was highly inter-
esting from the fact that the average
person reads but little of that
country. Many OF its great cities
were shown and 1t was something of
a revelation to learn of the progress
which has been made. In speaking
OF the travelling from this country to
that, the lecturer left something of
a wrong impression when he said
that nothing but first class steamers
played between New York and
Buenos Ay1es, and that the expense
was enormous. There are several
parties living In Mitchell now who
have made the trip and they did not
fpd the expense very great and
further. that they we're able to
travel 10 very comfortable quarters.
The pictures displayed were very
clear and gave a very comprehensive
view of life In South America. His
lecture was much appreciated. The
next attraction on the course will
occur Dec. Is, when Judge Ben
Lindsey appears.

Elk City wagon road, full appreciation
of it cannot be gained, without a trip
over it," said George V. Harrington of
Spokane, who arrived Monday evening.
Mr. Harrington has been over the
road great number of times, and he
says the portion that already has been
improved by the money appropriated by
the state legislature last winter, is in
the best condition it has been since the
mountain road was built. Monday the
camp of the laborers was moved to
Mountain House, and the work this
week has been in the vicinity of Little
Badly.
State Engineer Stephenson and Sur
veyor Erskine made a trip over the
road the latter part of the week, their
objective point being the American
river grade on the Dixie road. Engi-
neer Stephenson agreed with Surveyor
Erskine on the method the latter has
adopted to reduce the grade at that
point, full particulars of which were
given in Mining News some time ago.
