Picnic at Indian Church

sunday was an ideal day and a
large crowd gathered at the old In
dian church three miles northeast of
StocR holm, to attend the picnic ar
ranged by Mr.. O.P. Johnson,o of Stock
holm, for the purpose of raising
money to preserve the historic old
landmark. Estimates of the crowd
are made all the way from five to nine
hundred people. The writer is of the
opinion that there were between six anu
seven hundred people present, an esti-
mate based on a count made of the
teams present ID at were used to trans
port the crowd to the picnic. Follow
ing the big picnic dinner in the beauti-
speechGlaking began with Mr.. @. p.
Johnston as presiding officer. Rev.
w. Il. Grafton. of Mitchell. was the
first speaker. Following him came
Henry S Volkmar, editor of the Mil
bank Review, who gave an interesting
address in which he recalled man in
cldents of the pioneer days when the
Indians ana whites used to gather to-
gether and worship in the historic old
church. Mr.. Nolkmar was followed
by ex-senator Amsden. also of Mil
bank, who gave an interesting talk
along the same lines as the speaker
preceding him Geo. K. Burt. of this
place, spoke briefly on behalf of the
~Codlngton county people present and
he was followed by Rev. Sholld, of
the ~Strandburg Lutheran church, who
spoke for some little time on the signi-
ficance of the gathering. The speeches
were i~nterspersed with music by the
LaBolt cornet band, which was pre-
sent throughout the day.
A refreshment stand, presided over
by a lot of splendid looking young
ladies and gentlemen from Stockholm,
dld a thriving business, and the pro-
hts derived from this source, which
must have been considerable, went
into the fund for the preservation of
theo old church. A collection was also
taken up later for the same purpose.
Something like one hundred and fifty
dollars was raised, which, after de-
Quoting expenses, would net between
s~eventy-tive and one hundred dollars.
An Indebtedness of sixty dollars will
thus De cleared up, which was incurred
0 the repairing of the church a !
year or so ago.
South Shore contributed a large
deleg alton to the picnic. Every avail.
able conveyance in the town was
pressed into service and there were
many then who could not 90 because
OF the lack of a way to get there

Terrible Slaughter OF lnnoce1ts
Last Friday Evening at Bal Grounds-No Mercy
Displayed by Nictcrs. DR.. Ferguson Holds
High hH,Ors Making Home Run.
OF al sad tales
OF tongue or pen
The saddest are these
ut might have BEEN

1t is hard to tell what it nigh,
have been--other than worse
The band did It's best on Main
street to cheer those who hao
not gone to the game, but were
weeping and wailing as n b.
one of their dear friends and rel
auivs went down in the terrible
slaughter-the band playing
cheerful music.
The score was 2 to IA IN favor
of the county dads.
Charles McWaters on first
showed the professional bal.
players how to juggle the bal
and still put a man out on first.
John Farley was a safe runner
he would place one foot on
first base and the other on Sc
cond and hold both bases-then
would ensue a big fight to try
aud put him out while getting
both feet on the same base.
W, w. Wilson sat down on the
ball out in the field so it wouldn't
get away from him.
Phil Saunders umpired the
game~-every time the batter
kicked on a ball called a strike
ne would call the next one two
strikes. When the bases were
full he would call them all out.
He certainly allied a hard posi-
ton well.
Prof. Clark lost his nerve and
would not umpire or play ball.
Franz Wendland, deputy reg
lister Of deeds, went TO first on a
foul--came back, got mad. made
a safe hit and then the "mean
Old umpire called MIN out on the
way from third to home. Mayor
Meehan would not even give him
the score on the final tally as bad,
y as the city needed it.
City Treasurer Franc Croal
got cold feet and went to Wilmot.
DR.. Pay was out to the game
prepared to aid in case of injured
feellngs-he guaranteed to re-
duce any case of ''swelled head
that the county officials might
get from winning the game.
DR.. Ferguson made a home
run.
Alderman G. w. Martens threw
democratic high balls-but the
county landed them all over the
field.
James Dore, policeman, show
ed the spectators how to chase
hobos.
City Attorney Bouck showed
the people that he could run as
successfully after the ball as he
could for Office.
The city officials do nc want
people to think they cannot play
ball-they held the other side
down TO 10 scores the lastinniug.
That's proof enough.
City Treasurer Croal on his re-
turn to the city Saturday morn
ing, seeing one of the cltyofficials,
ran up to him and inquired, Ibid
you beat, did you oeat?' What
the reply was-nutf sed.
While the band boys were un-
able to get together in time to 90
out to the ball game they were
not to be out done aud gave a
concert on Main street, which
drew quite a crowd of people.
This was the secondconcert dur
ing the week. The previous
concert on Tuesday evening
brought quite a number OF
farmers to town and it is safe to
say that if the concerts we're to
be a weekly featured great many
farmers would come to town to
hear the good music the boys
are giving.

CAUGHT ON THE N

Milhank the past three years.
and not a single accident-not a
bad record. 1t has been due, how
ever, to the fact that the street
com missioner would not allow
the men to work in the deep
trenches without putting up
large supports to keep the walls
of earth lrom caving in.
Uncle D. j. S. McGiver'n face
bore a great big smile last week
that simply wouldn't come off.
He had received word that his
pension had been increased from
, S12 to 800 a month-why should
he not smile: Uncle Sam looks
after his soldiers. Besides this
pension Mr.. McGivern lives at
the Soldiers Homeat Hot Springs
and he says there is not a better
place on earth than the home.
From the first of July until
snow flies transients begin to
flock from the east. into the Da-
kotas for having, harvest and
threshing. Not all of these men
are hobos. For instance there
are several young men who have
been working with the railway
company's construction crew,
who haye been attending one of
the large eastern colleges. At
ter the winters studies are com
pleted, and their. health being
poor, they donGed o~veralIs and
came west--to see the country
and get out door work. They
are thoroughly enjoying them
selves they say, and getting Il lot
of good experience.
An Indian and bride to be call,
ed at Clerk of Courts Liggett's
office Tuesday, and told Mr..
Liggett something about want
ing to get married. Mr.. Liggett
took it for granted that they
were after d license. After this
important paper had been made
out, the Indian pulled a license
out of his pocket which he had
procured in Roberts county and
after some talk and OSCILLATIONS
told the clerk he wanted him to
marry them. Mr.. Liggett in
formed him that the Roberts
county license was not good in
this county, the Indian took the
Grant county license, and armed
with two permits to marry start
ed in quest of a preacher.
J. A. Samelson, who was
formerly in the harness business
in this city, but who moved to
Seim, Butte county, last spring.
was 10 the city Monday between
trains on business. Shortly
after his arrival at Seim. the re
sidents of the town received a
hint that new townsite. Lennon,
would belaid out short distance
from there. and in a few days
Selm was moved, buildings and
all to near where the new town
site Was to be laid out. Mr..
Samuelson put up a shack and
proceeded to conduct a small
store. In a few days a ranch
woman visited the store aud pro-
ceeded to purchase as she called
it, Ia few supplies" 1t was a
cheese, several boxes of crack
ers, bacon, hams. -four Atany
rate Mr.. Samelson said that
when the woman was through
and paid for her purchases he
was out ofbuslness. He stocked
up again, and in a short time
built on a small addition, and as
his business increased he was
compelled to build on other ad.
ditions until at the present time
he has quite a general store
and hires several clerks. This
new town is very close to where
Joseph Martens homesteaded
land a year ago.
