South Chase Street Boy Finds
Himself a Suit

The South Chase street boys

times base ball, sometimes shin

meets now, and track meets, you
know, call for open work suits
with bare legs and arms. One
of the boys, and this boy is all
boy by the way, had to depend
on his ingenuity 10 provide the
suit. So he went home and
prowled through bureau drawers
until he found something that
suited his critical taste.
When the gang lined up for
2:2O sprint the boy who is all
boy was the proud wearer of an
old undershirt with sleeves cut
off and a very white pair of his
sisters unmentionables. And as
the bare feet shot down the road

were rather pleased to see that

The Falls City schools will
close today for the summer va

scene. The auditorium was
crowded with people who are
greatly interested in this great
public work.
The class was large one and
number of the members start
ed to our public schools in the
Kindergarten and have been
class mates since then. The
entire class entered the high

at all times been loyal to each
other and with this feeling have
accomplished much.
The instrumental music as
we'll as the vocal was well rem
dered on this occasion. The in
vocation was pronounced by
Rev. r.. G. Bailey. The class
history by Reavis Gist was
good, and the recital of"Gazelle
and Swan by Hazel White was
exceptionally well received.
The address by William Jen-
nings Bryan on "The Price of
Soul was we'll received. We
have heard several remark that
it was one of the incest enter.
tainments ever given by grad
uating class from our schools.
The pupils, teachers, patrons
and audience were alike de-
lighted. Our schools have
made an enviable record this
year, and we are proud of the
work that is being done.
One year ago one member OF
the class, Jacob Maierus was
taken from their number and
called to his reward, and few
months ago Jessica Poteet re-
moved with her parents to Colo
RADIO, leaving twenty-one in the
class. Following are a list OF

HAVE BIG Time
Continued from page ~

The visitors were then asked TO do
the entertaining. Interesting speeches
were made by ]. T. Kennedy of the
Minneapolis Drug Co., F. L. Mcclellan
of the Mcclellan Paper Co.. j. w.
Bragdon of Winston. Harper. Fisher &
Co. and w. J. Jones. business manager
of the Minneapolis journal. Songs
and quartets by Minneapolis artists
brought down the house and there were
many clever stories and hits on local
people. An incident occurred during
the speech of Mr.. Bragdon. an old
timer and known t Dickinson people
for years, which caused an uproar. He
had told humorous stories about Mayor
Frye and Dan Manning and was in the
midst of a yarn regarding the early
piety of l.. j. Dickinson when a beauti-
fully gowned creature entered the room,
asking for MI. Bragdon. He was pointed
out and the visitor Immediately began
to greet him in a most aft ectionate
manner. 1t was not difficult to tell whom
the feminine garb so ~cleverly concealed
and the local people who got up the
stunt were well awarded by the hit il
made.
The time was then spent informally,
many going ove to the train for a
social visit. Others took in the COM
mencement exercises downstairs and a
number attended the alumni dance;
where they were given the time of their
lives. Although no set program had
been arranged and everything was
informal, the visitors declared Dickin-
son citizens were royal entertainers and
not to be equalled along the line.
The special pulled out early Saturday
morning and short stops were made at
the small towns between here and
Mandan. The trip began over the
as far as Lewistown. Mont.
and thence back rel the N. P. home.

CHARGE
Continued from page ~

q shot and the charge from the gun
passed through one Of 1gaard's knees
and into his stomach. The defense. in
cross examination brought out that Lar
son had tried to eet Igaard to take
another road after they left the coal pile.
so that they would not meet johnson,
but Isaard refused to do so. It was also
brought out that Larson had q CONVEX
sation with Mrs. johnson some months
after the shooting when the witness
stated that he was afraid ''Jgaard could
kill Johnson at that time.
d.. Rucker of Mott testified that
Igaard made a statement just before
his death and that the statement was
reduced to writing and signed by several
witnesses. d. Rucker stated that it
had been delivered by him to States
Attorney Stone. The states attorney
from Hettinger county testified that he
had the written statement in his grip
and some one appropriated the bag and
its contents at Dickinson and it was
the desire of the state to introduce
secondary testimony as to the contents
of the statement. The court finally ruled
that the testimony was permissible and
d.. Rucker was allowed to 60 on with
his testimony. The statement corrobol-
ated the testimony of the prosecuting
witnesses in two points.
The state introduced all it's witnesses
Wednesday and two for the defense
were called. the wife and the child of
the accused. The testimony of Mrs.
johnson was directly opposite to that
given by the prosecution witness, Lar
son. and it will be I'D to the jury to tell
which party is telling the truth. It was
expected that the defendant himself
would be put on the stand the first thing
Thursday morning, a decision was ex-
pected Friday.
In commenting>on the case the Bis
marck Tribune of Wednesday said:
I'm the district court room. as the
johnson murder case is being tried,
there is a pathetic example of the hard
ships that come to innocent persons
through unbridled passions and hasty
violence. Back of the defendant John
son, sits his wife and a boy nine or ten
years of age, one Of a family of five OF
six children of the defendant. The
wife has been deprived of her husbands
assistance for the past year during
which he has been in Jail, and she has
yet to 60 through the ordeal of his trial
and the verdict of the jury in his case.
In another seat back of her, sits the
widow of the deceased Igaard, who was
killed in the encounter between him and
Johnson. She has a young daughter
with her, and is likewise an %innocen,
sufferer from the tragedy. It is a ques-
ton if the two. women are o the
greatest sufferers from the passions OF
two men, where a quarrel over a load Of
coal brought death t one and may bring
either death or a long term of imprison-
ment to the other.
