A LIBERAL OFFER

Manager Walker has decided to
admit ladies' free with one paid ticket
to the performance Of the Great Nc
Even and his company in the Grand
opera house this evening. AS the
prices have been made SO extremely
low, this added inducement should
crowd the theatre to the limit.
Mr.. McEwen's entertainment is well
known to us by reputation and the
fact cannot be disputed that his per-
formance is not equalled by any en-
tertainer before the public. A Scotch
man by birth, his fame has spread
until it extends around the globe
Great credit is due Mr.. Walker and
his booking circuit for bringing art
lists of this calibre to BrOokings.

Love WILL
FIND A WAY
Fifteen Year Old Miss ElOpeS
With an Aged Lover
THEIR WHEREABOUTS YET unknown
Miss Should be Spanked and Man
Given RdWhide Treatment

BrookingS had real. genuine case
OF elopement yesterday. That is the
elopement started yesterday, but the
elopers have not yet been run TO earth,
although the father of the girl is on
the trail Tuesday night John NJ. Day,
a graduate of the college with the
class of 1890. came down from Mel
lette and remained over night. Yes
terday morning he secured team at
Dewing's livery barn and drove to the
school house. where he was joined by
Eva Sample. the fifteen-ycar old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Cnas. Sam
pie They drove to Aurora, from
where they took the eleven O'Clock
train to ElktOn and changing to the
Rock Island they went to Pipestone,
and from there to Sioux Falls, where
all trace of them has been lost.
Mr.. Sample, father of the girl went
to Sioux Falls this morning to try and
locate the runaways, but it is very
probable that they have already been
married and the only thing left for
the parents to do will be to give their
blessing.
Day graduated from the college
eighteen years ago and is about forty
wears of age. while the girl is but fif
teen. He has been teacher at Mel
lette since graduating from college
His father, J. p. Day, was member
of the board of trustees of the college
from 1889 to 1895, at the time the
college was governed by a board o
regents and board of trustees. Day
is we'll remembered by the older citi
zens of Brookings.
The girl moved here from Spinl
county, near Mellette. with ner par
ents last fall and has since been /
student at the high scnool. She made
the acquaintance of Day at Mellette
where he was her teacher. She gave
no intimation to her parents or school
mates OF what was about to happel
and the news came as a severe shOcl
to all concerned.
The relatives Of the girl did not en-
list the services OF the county author
tiles here, preferrng to handle the
case themselves, but if they had plac
ed ,..e sheriff on the trail he coulC
have had the ruuaways placed unde
arrest when they reached Sioux Falls

SOMETHING DOING
The Country West Of the Missouri is
Having a Wonderful Growth

A. II. Wheaton, state food and dairy
commissioner returned Tuesday morn
ing from Lennon S. d.. where he had
been called to assist in organizing a
cooperative creamery association, and
reports that that portion of the state
is certainly "humming."
New settlers are coming in by the
tran-loads bringing their household
and other effects with them and every
face has that determined look i've
come to stay"
He says that the people coming in
to that portion of the state are not
composed Of adventurers, but are
mainly of the better class, which
means much to the upbuilding Of the
fast developing country west of the
big muddy.

SUNDAY FIRE
Careless Handling Of electric LIGHT
Causes Blaze in East Brookinos

Sunday evening the fire department
was called out to eXtinguish "A blaze
at the nome of f.. II. Williams. Four
little boys. Cecil Skinner. Frank
kremer. Bland Catlett and Walter
Reeves. discovered the fire and went
to the rescue and had the fire practi-
cally out when the department ar
rived. and they are deserving of much
praise for their prompt and heroic
services.
The fire started in IA peculiar man,
ner. An electric light bulb attached
to an extension cord had been placed
on a bed and a coat had been thrown
over the bulb. with the switch turned
on. When the electric current was
turned on at the power house Sunday
evening the light, being confined un
derneath the coat. became heated and
ignited the bedding and only for the
chance discovery by the boys who
were outside and across the street
the beautiful dwelling might have
been destroyed with all as contents
As it was little damage was done.
This should be warning to thOYe
who use electric lights. Never la,
an attached light bulb on wood or on
bedding or clothing don't wrap cloth
about any fixtures where there is q
connection or coupling. and do not
hang any cloth or clothing on switch
es or fiXturers. There Is a grea
amount of heat in an electric current
or there would be no light. A rea
sonable amount of caution is all tha
is necessary In handling electricity.

THE WRETCH
Congressman Seeks to Change Rules
Of Lower House

Representative Nelson, of Wiscon-
sin. has had the audacity to suggest
that the method of procedure IN the
national house of representatives has
become so complicated, arbitrary
and cumbersome that most of it's bust
ness has to be transacted under
unanimous consent, suspension of the
rules or through riders on apprOpria-
ton bills, a procedure so bewildering
that comparatively few members OF
the house itself, much less outsiders,
have any real knowledge of the rules
and has introduced a resolution for
the establishment. within ten days,
of committee to reform the parlia-
mentary practices of the house. The
committee is to consist of forty-siX
members, one from each Of the states.
Now if some senator will take a
whirl at some of the rules of the upper
house there will be commotion in
the amen corner.

STATE FARMERS INSTITUTE
Greater Interest Being Shown Than
Ever Before

The recent closing of the State
Farmers Institute meetings mark a
new era in the agricultural history
of South Dakota. Farmers Institutes
have long since past the experimental
stage and are now universally recog-
nized by all the progressive states as
being the most important factor eX-
tant in developing and bringing to the
front the most advanced methods and
new agricultural conditions of the
country. The cooperation of the State
College of Agriculture. the Farmers
State Institutes. and the agricultural
press are all working in harmony with
the man behind the plOw, to whom
all honor is due, and to whom the
prosperity of the country owes a last
ing debt of gratitude. The State
Farmers Institute work in South Da-
kota is now squarely and firmly on its
feet, and is in all respects the peer OF
any institution of its kind in the coun-
try. The farmers institute board is
composed of broad guaged men, that
have this great interest of the state
at heart. Supt. Chamberlain and his
board are working i'm a harmony that
is rarely ever found i'm these days Of
selfishness and graft. There is but
one thought visible, namely, that of
closely guarding the expenditure of
the appropriation, wisely made by the
Legislature in manner that would

the enormous amount of time and
labor eXacted by his correspondence
which Is usually, in fact as far as
we know invariably. considered one
mans work. He is most fortunate in
possessing in a marked degree per
sOnal knowledge of South Dakota con
ditions. He is likewise man of
an unusual fund of general informa-
ton. as we'll as very forceable and
logical speaker.
All in all the commonwealth is to
be congratulated in having such Il
man in charge of a work that is SO
important and far reaching. The only
criticism We have heard during the
winters work was his tendency to
what some felt was over working his
men. When. however, all the condi-
tiOns are analyZed and survey of
the vastneSs Of the field is taken and
the constant demand for more meet
ings is pouring in upon the superin-
tendent with an inadequate apprO-
priation. il is not strange that he felt
to give the people every possible bene-
fit in his power. AS Il loyal represent
ative OF the greatest and most honor
oh in fpN in, h. h,,u Il
| he have done otherwise?
The entire state was practically
covered. Yet as many more meetings
could have been profitably held. An
aggregate OF ninety.two meetings were
held. with an attendance OF apprOXi-
mately fifty thousand farmers. The
character of the meetings were of a
very high standard covering the en-
tire range of live stock. dairying, soil
fertility. seedbed, good seeds, grasses,
good roads, horticulture educational
training of our boys and girls. Not
omitting the great creamery industry
and the cooperation of farmers in
| protecting their interests in the mark
citing of their products. The continu
alton of this earnest and faithful ser
vice. means millions to South Da
kOta's tillers of the soil.
The legislature will render a ser
vice to the farmers that will have nc
limit in its scope, and be of a prodig
eOus value to the state, by a generous
increase of the appropriation. also
authorizing the publication by the
superintendent of an Annual, for gra
tuitous distribution at the institute
meetings., it would surely be bread
cast upon the waters, which will bring
forth many fold We reiterate thai
South Dakota is to be congratulated
upon the success and high character
of her institute work. In Institutes a:
in live stock and other farm products
it's quality that counts.

MAY MUSIC FESTIVAL
Splendid Orchestra for May Festva
in Brookings

The May Music Festival Committee
have been for some time negotiating
with the Minneapolis symphony
Orchestra to appear in Brookings this
season. The excellent support given by
the business and professional men has
made it possible TO close the contract.
The orchestra of about forty-five
pieces will be assisted by four of the
best vocal solosts in the Northwest.
As planned at present the May festi-
val this year will consist of three
numbers. The college band assisted
by local talent will give a concert on
the evening of May 20, and the Mimi
eapolis Symphony Orchestra with
their vocal soloists will give an after
noon concert on May y. and on the
evening of the same day the orchestra,
soloists and festival chorus will give
the closing concert. This will with
out doubt be the greatest musical
event that has ever taken place in
BrookingS.
Mr.. Oberhoffer the conductor of the
orchestra, is given practically unlimit-
ed authority and financial support in
the upbuilding OF his musical Organi-
zatiOn. How we'll he has succeeded
is evidenced by a statement made last
winter by Paderewski. who said that
the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra
is second only to the Boston Sym
phOny Orchestra in this country. The
sOlOists they bring are artists OF
known reputation and will surely
please. The festival chorus. which
will number upwards OF one hundred
voices, is working hard and with the
orchestra and SolOists, will give a
splendid concert

PRIMARY LAW ATTACKED
Prohibition Party Testing Validity Of
the New Law

Aubrey Lawrence went to Pierre
Tuesday evening. where Yesterday he
appeared before the supreme court to
argue the case brought by the State
Prohibition committee to have the pri-
mary law declared unconstitutional.
I'm case the supreme court holds the
law to be contrary to the constitution
it may be possible that Governor
Crawford will follow the lead Of Gov
ernOr Dineen of Illinois, and call an
extra session of the legislature to en-
act a primary law that will hold good.
The people have declared in no un-
certain terms that they want pri-
mary law, but it is very probable that
the present one will stand the test.

CHANGE PLANS
Commissioners Conclude to Build a

ChaS =. Trimmer of Chicago. a con
here the last week preparing plans
for a concrete bridge which the county
commissioners We're to build north of

bids on the bridge the commissioners
changed their minds and decided to
construct a steel bridge. If the bridge
had been built of concrete as origin

first one of the kind in the county and
one of the first in the state. Mr.. Trim
mer is of the opinion that concrete
bridges will be in general use in this
state within very short time.
