Captain Osborn received orders on
Monday in regard to the annual state
rifle competition to be held at Devils

Each company which has had large,
practice this year is entitled t send five
men to this competition. From these
men there will be selected a state team
of fifteen, twelve regulars and three alter.
mates, to represent North Dakota in the
national team match at Camp Perry, O.
The first day at Devils Lake will BE-
devoted to record shooting for the Nat.

the second day the state team will be
chosen. Major J. H. Frame is executive
officer to conduct the competition.
The five men who make the biggest

This will in no way conflict with the
encampment at American Lake as all
men who do not make the state team will

Pastor Installed


Last Sunday was a day long t be re-
membered by St. Johns Evangelical
Lutheran church of this city and Christ's
church in the Luhmann neighborhood
southeast, when Rev. Eugene Ali, late
OF Duluth, Minnesota, was installed
pastor.
At 10 o'clock the service in this city
occurred, a large congregation being
present to witness the ceremony and to
greet the new pastor. Rev. Wellsandt
OF Belle PLANE, Minnesota, returning
from a vacation in Washington, preached
the German sermon; Rev. c. Bartels Of
New England delivered the English
address and installed Rev. ALL according
to the beautiful rites of the Lutheran
church.
IN the afternoon a congregation, which
completely filled the ediice, gathered
in Christ's church for the installation
services there.
About six years ago the work of the
Lutheran church was begun in this city
by Rev. o. T. Just, only a very small
band of faithful people attending the
first meetings. The untiring efforts of
Rev. Just were greatly blessed of God
and the work prospered until from some
twelve German families the parish now
includes forty families, about half Ger
man and half English speaking. St.
Johns church was erected three years
ago at a cost of $4,000, nearly all of which
has been paid. A year or more ago
Christ's congregation was. organized 10
miles southeast and soon after a $4,000
church was erected.
Rev. o. T. Just, in addition to these
two parishes, held services at Belfeld
and New England. He was greatly
esteemed, not only by his own people,
but by all who knew him and the people
of the city were glad when he gave up
the call to Australia to remain in Dickin-
inson. But later a most imperative call
came to take up mission work in Van
couver, B. c., and Mr.. Just reluctantly
closed his labors here last spring.
Rev. Eugene Ahl comes to Dickinson
from Duluth, where for seven year he
has been pastor of one of its influential
churches. Under his ministrations ST..
Johns and Christ's churches are looking
forward to a time of continued prosperity
and healthy growth. Mr.. ALL is a
pleasant gentleman to meet and should
receive a hearty welcome to the city.
He is at present making his home with
Mr.. and Mrs. w. r. Veigel. About
September 1st he expects his wife and
child, who are now visiting in Appleton,
Wisconsin, to join him.

Indian Girls mt Basket-Bau.

The finest basketball team in Indian
Territory is at Sapulpa, and is com
posed of full-blood Indian girls who
have been trained by the superintend-
ent of the Euchee Mission School. an
experienced coach.
The Euchee team has never been de-
feated, a writer in the Kansas Civ
Star says. Match games have been
played with the crack" teams of Tul-
sa, Claremore, Bristow, Sapulpa. Ok
mulgee and Strond, but the Indian girls
have always won.
Inc indian girls, who represent some
OF the best and purest blood of the
Greeks and the Euchee clan, are all
scholars in the Euchee school They
are excellent students.
The natural aptitude of the Indian
for athletics crops out in their basket
ball play. Their strongest point is
in team work, backed I'D by great
swiftneSs of foot In the sapulpa
match game these girls once made a
goal from the toss-up without letting
the opposing team touch the ball or al.
lowing the BAH to touch the floor.
The fame of the Euchee team has
spread to such an extent that already
games have been scheduled for a Mis-

their performance of religious duties;
you can see them at all hours praying
in the shrines where not often you see
the men. If this theory about the wom-

to their strength of mind, for Bud

last analysis, it must be to the women
that we owe the beautiful pagodas, the,
excellent monasteries and the gemlike

Startling revelations have been made
Of the secret tests applied to Harry
Orchard, the self-confessed multi-mur
derer and chief witness at the trial OF
William ID. Haywood at Boise, Idaho
by Prof. Hugo Munsterberg, of Har-

The Harvard professor of psychology
probed to the very recesses Of the con-
vict's brain, and used for his startling
researches perhaps the most remark

The use of this instrument on an
actual criminal In connection with a
murder trial marks an epoch In legal
history, the final developments Of which

revealer of the inside of mans or a

TOMATO BLIGHT.
Results of Exhaustive Research at
Washington State College.

A great many remedies for tomato
blight have been suggested by tomato
growers, but most of these have proved
to be unsuccessful. A couple of years
ago the State college experiment sta
ton experimental quite extensively
with tomato blight at Charleston, Free
man, Pullman, Wenatchee and North
Yakima. We found that tomates
which we're grown in the shade did not
blight as badly as those which were
grown in the sunlight, but usually,
there was about twenty-five per cent Of
blight, even in the shaded plants.
Shading tomato plants can therefore
hardly be considered a remedy for the
blight.
Some growers at North Yakima have
gotten fairly good results by planting
the seeds rather thick!y in the rows,
and afterwards thinning out, instead of
planting the seeds in the hotbed, and
trsnsplanting to the field. Various
methods of irrigation and cultivation
have been investigated, but no sstisfac-
tory results have been obtained. Sew

DIPPING OF SHEEP.
Formula for Killing Lice and Mang.
Successfully.

lll response 10 numerous INQUIRIES
the State College department of veter
mary science has prepared the follow
ing formula for the making Of sheer
dip From several regions of tn,
Northwest, word has been sent OF the
existence OF mango and other infectious
maladies among the sheep. which it il
hoped to eradicate by properly dipping
the sheep.
Use twenty four pounds flowers Of
sulphur; eight pounds unslaked lime
one hundred gallons OF water. Place
| the unslaked lime in a mortar box, OF
suitable vessel, adding enough water to
slake the lime and form lime paste,
or putty" Sift into this lime paste
the flowers of sulphur, and stir the
mixture well. Be sure to weigh both
the lime and the sulphur. Do not
trust to measuring them in a bucket,
or to guessing at the weight. Place the
sulphur and lime paste in a kettle, or
boiler, with about twenty five to thirty
gallons of boiling water. Boil the mix.
ture fer two hours at least, stirring the
mixture and sediment. The boiling
should be continued until the sulphur
disappears, or almost disappears from
the surface, at which time the solution
will be a chocolate, or liver color.
The longer the solution boils, the more
sulphur is dissolved, and the lees caus.
tic the ooze becomes.
Pour the mixture and sediment into
a large tub, or barrel, and allow 1T am
pie time (from two to three hours, and
more, if necessary to settle. Draining
off the liquid is a great advantage over
dipping it out, in that less commotion |
occurs in the liquid, and Therefore it re-
mains freer from sediment. Add |
enough warm water to make one hun |
dred gallons. Under no circumstances
use The sediment for dipping purposes.
In order to attain success in the
treatment of mango by dipping, care
and sureness of method must be observ-
I'd. Animals that have been exposed
should be dipped as well as those that
'how distinct evidence Of the disease.
After the elapse of two weeks following

liquid at the time of dipping should

ress Farenheit. Each animal should
