What's a Governor For.

Charities and Commons: 1t is said
that Pennsylvania has a governor who
not only evinces the ordinary inter-
est that every good citizen takes in
the welfare of the wards of the state,
but actually appreciates his duty as
chief executive to the extent of maxi
inquiries about the insane and other
detectives and paying personal Wis
it's to the hospitals. We are not sur
prised when the governor Of a little
state like Nebraska or Indiana, or
South Dakota, does this sort of a
thing. The simple farmers or country
lawyers who are made governors in
the wild and woody west, come from
the common people and feel the
common burdens. But when a gov
ernor of Pennsylvania or New York
does as Governors Stuart and Hughes
have done. in this respect, the news
papers praise their actions as Won
derful. The Harrisburg Patriot says
Governor Stuart is the first Pennsyl-
vania executive to take this kind Of
active interest in such affairs. Ger
tainly Pennypacker and Odell-but
let's forget them.

to Mr.. Robertson's courage" Strong
words these from such a distinguish
ed source, but they are but similar to
countless other Mandatory express
ions from those high in the world of
art, letters, and the stage. Mr.. Rob-
ertson makes his appearance here in
"a Curious Mishap" and his en-
gagement will be for one night, Sat

dunn of April 80 we clip the follow
ing: "Mrs. Olive G. Barck, who died

Der, 1875. She was married to Mr..

No other living actor, and few
other men, indeed, in public life
have been the recipient of such I'M
stinted praise, and pleasing comment
as has Donald Robertson, during the
last year or two. His avowed pur-
pose, u~nfalteringly upheld, of estab-
fishing IN independent theatre, where
nothing but what is ideal and best in
the drama shall be performed, has
brought him the recognition of all
those interested in the general up

WILL HAVE RACE MEETING
Mitchell Will Have Race Meeting as
Part of the Circuit Three Days
in July.

Several of the men in the city in
terested formerly in the driving park
association met Saturday evening for
the purpose of making some arrange
ments for the race meeting to be held
in Mitchell, July 13 to Is inclusive.
This is one of the meetings of the
Corn Belt Circuit which includes the
towns of Marshall and Pipestone,
Minnesota, Sioux Falls, Flandreau,
Mitchell and Groton. The following
were elected officers: President w.
G. Metcalf; vice president, A. G. Ber-
ry; SECRETARY, H. G. Nichols, assis-
tant secretary, j. X. Smith; treasur-
er, Frank Weller. An executive COM
mittee will be appointed to sound the
business men as to the amount of
purses thai can be hung up for the
visiting horsemen and the extent to
which it would be advisable to push
the meeting.
Race meetings in the past in Mich
ell have depended to a great extent
upon the initiative solely of the men
most interested in it, who did not
derive any particular benefit in it,
aside from the personal satisfaction
they obtained from having an event
of that sort in the city. 1t is hoped
that this meeting in July may be a
success and one in which all may
feel some responsibility.

credit should be given Miss Mabel
Smith, instructor in elocution, for
her work in drilling the actors and
bringing them up to the high state
of efficiency. All through, the enter
tainment was a success in both a SOC
ial and financial way.

HEARD FROM HIS JOB
Henry Swindler Notified to Conn
mence His Work Of Appraise-
ment for Government.

About five weeks ago Henry
Swindler read in the daily papers
that he had been appointed as an
appraiser of land on the Standing
Rock Indian agency. He waited for
several days for an official confirm
alton of the appointment from Wash
ington, and receiving nothing from
the officials of the land office or from
any member of the South Dakota
delegation, he had commenced to
think, perhaps, that the appointment
was more or less a joke, and it had
beer made.
Yesterday, however, the situation
put on a different light, when he
received a telegram from the acting
commissioner of the general land Of
fee, Mr.. Valentine, authorizing him
to report to Charles II. Bates, at
Fort Yates, to begin the work of ap-
praising the lands of the agency in
behalf of the Indians. Such a tele-
gram was the first intimation Mr..
Swindler had that there was any
thing to the appointment.

1RaLlAAs IN MOUSE TRAP
Ore of University Societies Gave an
Interesting PLaylet Saturday
Evening.

In the college chapel Saturday
evening the Thalians presented their
playlet The Mouse Trap with some
add ional numbers, making an en-
t~eltsinment most interesting and de-
ligntful that was enjoyed by an aud
fence which completely filled the
room.
The first number on the program
was the waltz from Faust. This diff
icult selection was rendered with
fine style and finish by the Thalian
Octette. The second number the
Overture from T~annhauser arranged
as a piano duet, was given by Misses
Mabel Dickey and Grace Cooper and
received hearty appreciation.
Mrs. Jarley's Wax Works was gwen
by twelve OF the girls .nlpersonated
the various characters such as Chris
topper Columbus. Sianlese Twins,
Shylock. John Philip Sousa and 9th
ers. All We're good and We're exhib-
tied by Mrs. farley in a name that
brought out their humorous points.
After a vocal duet by Misses Anna
Scott and Anna Gutenberg the prin-
cipal attraction of the program was
presented, The Mouse Trap" by
VIM. Dean Howells. This is a rep
re%sentation of some of the frailities
of the feminine temperament, all oc-
casioned by a dispute in the farce as
to woman's right to the ballot. The
farce was carried out we'll by the
actors, its action moving we'll along
and keeping the interest Of the aud.
fence. The two principal characters
were Miss Grace Davis as Mrs. Som.

ANNUAL SOCIAL OCCASION
Twentieth Century Club Held an En-
ioyable Sociable Affair at Rath-
bun Home.

Saturday evening the Twentieth
Century Club held its annual ban
quet at the pleasant home of Mr..
and airs. c. G. Rathbun. On this oc-
casiCn, as is the custom OF the ladies.
they invited their husbands, and IA
few other guests that We're invited
were: DR.. and Mrs. Weir, Mr.. and
Mrs. S. H. Scallin, Mr.. and Mrs. H..
II. kibbee, Mrs. G. H. Rev, Mrs. H..
G. Nichols and Leland Nermilyea.
Mrs. kibbee and Mrs. Weir We're
members of the club last winter and
others were invited to take the place
of husbands who were not present.
Each gentleman was given a sample
of IA ladies gown and he discovered
his partner by matching the sample
with the dress. But this was not the
end of the troubles of the gentle
men. Each lady brought a picture
of herself taken when she was a lit
tie girl. These were used as place
cards. The gentlemen found their
places at the table by trying to rec
ognize the picture of the little girls
of yesterday. The tables were re-
splendent in white and gold, the club
colors. The candelabra on each table
had the lights softened by shades of
yellow. Cut glass bowls of marguer-
ties, the club flower, were on each
table. If the husbands had been in
the least concerned lest the advance
ment of their wives in the literary
work might lead to the disparage-
ment of the cunning of their hand
in the culinary line, they were COM
pletely disalluded as they partook of
the four course dinner, which was
served by the Misses Johnston,
Shelby, Youngman, Scott, and
| White. After an hour and a half
spent at the table. which time was
deity divided between relish and rep
artee the guests arose from the
table and at once entered into a spirit
of rivalry guessing the names of the
leading magazines by a descriptive
sentence. This was followed by
an amusing charade. Mrs. Nichols
and Misses White, Y%oungman and
Scott delighted the company with
piano solos. Each was heartily en-
cored. The music added much to
the pleasure of the evening. This
delightful evening was a fitting close
to the pleasant and instructive years
work the club has spent in studying
Rome, Italy, Renaissance and mod
ern art and Greek life, which con-
stitutes the years work as given by
the Bay View reading course, which
also includes the Bay View Magazine
which has been more delightfully."-
possible this year than ever before.
The Twentieth Century Club is con-
scientious in it's club work now as
then through the year, relieving the
study by a social afternoon. The
years work closes with the month
of May, and the club will then hold
it's annual picnic, this being the last
gathering of the club members IN
til they again take up the work in
! the fall.
The success of the evening was due
largely to the combined efforts of the
hos, and hostess. who opened their
home to the club entertainment and
assisted materially in providing the
~amusements.

CORN PALACE STARRED
The Committee Recognized Tuesday
Afternoon and the Ball is Start
ed for IL Big Affair.

Mitchell will have her annual corn
palace enterprise again this year
The dates are from Sept. 81 to
Oct. 2. Bear them closely in mind,
and arrange your fall vacation to
come to this big feature of the north
west.
The initial steps toward starting
the corn palace for this year were
taken Tuesday afternoon, when the
committee met at 4 o'clock for re-
organization. The committee or
ganized as follows:
President-Wm. nj. Smith.
Vice presidents. Z. Morris.
Secretary. l.. Ness.
Treasurer. T. Morrow.
President Smith appointed the fol-
lowing committees:
Building and Decorations-John
Michels, j.. n. Davis.
County Exhibits. E. Morris, j.
T. Morrow.
Finance. ]. Welch.
Advertising. l.. Ness, L. j.
WEIGH.
There were two changes on the
committee, Robert Burns, who had
charge of the advertising, and I. w.
Seaman. Their places are supplied
by Mr.. Morris and Mr.. Ness. The task
of managing the hundreds of details
of the corn palace is a big job. and
more or less a thankless one, but
these gentlemen have consented to
act for another year, and with their
experience we believe they will pre-
sent some splendid features this fall.
1t vas the %concensus of opinion that
the corn palace should take on =
higher dignity this year than ever be-
fore, and the committee expects to
make the corn palace Of 1909 the
best in the history of the enterprise.
The county exhibits last year were
a very strong feature of the palace,
and in fact the primary object Of the
palace is to advertise the esourcea
Of the state, and the committee Is.
therefore, anxious to have this part
show up we'll. Large prizes for the
county exhibits were given last year
and inducements will again be offer
ed this year to bring in a large num-
Der Of counties for the palace.
President Smith has consented to
take charge of the attractions for the
palace and the streets, and he will
soon begin the arduous task Of Sc
curing the features.
The cor palace proposition looks
like a very fine winner this year and
there is absolutely but one thing to
prevent a highly successful show and
that is a season of poor crops, but
the outlook in that direction at the
present time appears to be such that
there will be no failure. Year in
and year out Mitchell's corn palace
management has %endeavored to pre-
sent features of instruction and en-
tertainment throughout the week.
and thousands upon thousands of Wis
itors who came to the city during all
these years atest fully the popular
ity of the enterprise and an endorse
ment of the honest and sincere meth
DDS put forth by the corn palace man
agement.
The corn palace comes as about the
last thing of the year, and gives the
people the last opportunity to get
out for an outing before going into
winter quarters. We want to assure
the thousands of friends of Mitch
ell that they will be abundantly en-
tertained again this year when the
palace opens the last week in Septem-
Der.
