The county library board will be
in session in this city Saturday, July
18th. This board consists of the
superintendent, auditor, states
attorney, and the principles of all
schools having two or more depart
ments.
The large crowd in the city Sat
urday was greatly disappointed be-
cause of the failure of the Madison
boys to arrive for the advertised game
with De Smet. The Madison boys
reported that they had missed the
train, and it seems no other arrange.
ments could be made for their trans
portatiOn.
Two weeks ago we made mention
of the bad condition of the roads
southeast of the city and that for two
miles the quarter line had to be used,
which quarter line the owners of the
property were about to close. Satur-
day last Byron Herrick informed this
writer that the property owners had
that day closed the road. This mat.
ter should be attended to at once.
The Yankee. Robinson Circus ex-
hibited in De Smet Saturday. The
day was fine and a good crowd was
in attendance. The company travels
by wagon and is therefore not large.
Their menagerie is mostly noted for
its absence. The circus performance
is good. While it is not to be COM
pared in magnitude with the three
rings and platform of some of the
large aggregations, their actors are
all irst-class. The performance as
far as quality goes is equal to the
best.
Miss Carrie ingalls, returned Fri
day from a two years stay in Color
ado and Wyoming where she sought
restoration from the effects of hay
fever and throat trouble. At present
she feels completely cured, but is not
SO certain about the improved condi-
ton remaining permanent in this
climate. The first year was spent
in Colorado and the last few months
at Jordon and Thermopolis, Wyom-
ing. Miss Ingalls, likes that country
very much and if her old trouble
should return she will go there at
once and locate permanently.
