there were flag drills and marches.

short plays and others instrumental selec-

social gatherings of the winter. Pink
and white was the color scheme used
and very dainty effects were secured.
The guests came early in the afternoon
in response to unique invitations which
were adorned with needle and length
Of pink silk. All brought their fancy
work with them and spent the time in
sewing and social conversation. A
missing word contest furnished much
amusement. The guests were given
verses of poetry with several blank
spaces where words were left out The
object was to find one anaeram which
would fit in every vacant place. To the
one securing the correct answer, q
solid gold thimble was awarded. The
prize was won by Mrs. Guy Hunter.
A five O'Clock luncheon was served
in the dining room, which was a bower
of beauty. Quantities of pink and
white carnations were used in the
decorations. The table looked ex-
ceptionally dainty with its wealth of
silver and cut glass and its beautiful
shower bouquets of pink and white
carnations. In the center was large
candlebra with dainty pink and white
silk shades while at each of the four
corners was crystal candlestick with
similar shades.
The luncheon included number Of
courses and the pink and white colors
predominated everywhere. in the
salads. jellies. cakes. ices, etc. Mrs.
Russell was assisted in serving by Miss
Jennie Freeman and Mra Henry Roberts.
Those present included: Mrs. Dan
Manning. Mrs. j. ". Jessen. Mrs. E.

MANY ATTEND
Lincoln Exercises in the School.
Draw Many Visitors Thursday.
About 40 Parents Present
in Different Rooms. .

If all the schools in the country OBJ
served the centennial of the birth of
Abraham Lincoln with as elaborate
and successful exercises as the Dickinson
schools held on Thursday afternoon of
this week. the name of Lincoln was
more honored than that of any other
hero of American history.
All of the programs as printed in full
in the PRESS last week, were carried
out to marked degree of success and
in every room. there were all the parents
and friends who could be Accommodated.
The widespread notice given the
exercises by the publishing Of the pro-
grams in this paper. created an un.
usually keen interest.
All of the school rooms were quite
elaborately decorated with flags, bunting,
portraits of Lincoln and patriotic quo.
tations and designs on the black boards.

NEW LAND OFFICE
Reported that Marmarth Wants
to be the Center of District
Including Parts of Three
Neighboring Districts.

That steps have been taken for the for
nation of new land district in west
ern North Dakota, was the statement
made by E. L. Illness, the Marmarth
land man. who was in Dickinson the
first of the week.
According to MIR. illness, the plan is
to locate the new Office at Marmarth
The district would include a small cor
ner of the Dickinson district, a portion
of Billings and Bowman counties. To
this would be added part of the Lem
mon district, the northern portion of
Butte county, and quite section of the
Miles City district in Montana.
= The reasons for the change which those
who are back of the scheme put up are
that it is too great hardship for peo-
pie in Marmarth and vicinity to come to
Dickinson to transact their land business
and that Marmarth is more centrally
located to all this territory than either
Lennon, Miles City or Dickinson. The
Lennon district extends to within al
most mile of Marmarth on the south,
The authorities at Washington have not
yet given any opinion in the matter.
It is believed that the formation of a
new land district with Belle Fourche as
the central point will affect the Mar
marth proposition. The Belle FOurche
district is practically assured as the bill
has passed the senate and gone to the
president for his signature.
Montana will no doubt object to any
change as more Montana land would
come into the new district than North
or South Dakota land. Then too, it is
unusual for land district to include
territory in three states. The Lennon
district, which takes In part Of North
and South Dakota, was established with
out q precedent It is generally the
opinion that the Marmarth proposition
will not stand much show of becoming 9
reality.

Sheriff and Mrs. T. N. Hartung

sary Of Their Marriage.

Fully IS of the friends of Ex-sheriff
and Mrs T. N. Hartune gave them a
royal surprise party in the knights of
Pythias hall Monday evening to help
them observe the 14th anniversary of
their marriage. They were taken en-
tirely unawares.
While most of the crowd met at the
hall, party of IS or so gathered at the
home of a neighbor and proceeded to the
Hartung residence, commanding the be-
wildered couple to get ready at once and
60 to the hall. 1t was merry crowd
and they soon had captured the guests
of honor and escorted them to the hall.
Here everything was in readiness,
and laid out on the table was the gift
of their friends, very handsome glass
water set including pitcher and six
glasses the whole on plateau of
French plate mirror 0rnamented with
lacquered silver. Mrs. HartunR was
overwhelmed and could scarcely express
her appreciation of their kindness and
generosity.
The principal entertainment was
dancing. which was participated in BY
everyone. Music was furnished by j. P.
Grady, violinist. and Miss Cola Litch,
pianist The hit of the evening was
the barn dance which was demanded for
every second or third number. Everyone
danced 1t and the fun was fast and
furious No one was too old or dignified
and the dance made tremendous hit.
Shortly before midnight supper was
served in tho reception room at small
tables. The food was brought BY the
ladies. Dancing was then resumed and
it was very late hour before the fun
let up. It was the unanimous opinion
that it was one Of the jolliest gatherings
Of the winter. 4ss.'
Much Of the success Of the affair was
due 70 the efforts Of Mrs. Walter Junkin
and Mrs Claude Shaw who made all the
arrangements and planned the surprise.

in Dickinson: February S. 1894. They
spent the greater part Of their married
life In Richardfon. coming here about

BOTH a. TIE
Two Excellent Basket Ball Games
Company A of Bismarck Makes
Winning Goal in Game With
q
Company K.

1t is q rare thing in basket ball con-
tests to have two games in an evening
result in tie scores, but such was the
case Friday evening Of last week when
Co. X of Dickinson and Co. A of Bis
marck held each other to a standstill,
the score being 81 to 81. and between
the halves the Blacks and the Blues
played to the score of IS to 18. The first
tie was played of, Co. "A making the
deciding basket and so winning the
game. "a to 81.
Both contests were exhibitions of fast
basket ball. The two militia teams
were evenly matched and Dickinson fans
are satisfied in their minds that the
local boys really won the game. on the
merits of the playing The team work
and passing of Co. X was especially
good and some difficult baskets were
made Our boys put up a fast, clean
game, not open in any way to criticism
and perfectly satisfactory at all times to
their many friends
The visitors cannot complain of the
treatment they received at the hands of
the Dickinson boys They played fast
game and won the contest by securing
the telling basket after the tie Orr
was the lucky man. Of their playing,
local fans do not offer any criticism and
gracefully yield to them the victory.
A return game will be played at Bis
marck soon when Co. X will try and
show them what basket ball is. A
new man was tried out on the
local team for the first time. Birch
more than made good and his
friends prophecy that he will soon be
one of the star players OF the others,
Baird and Campbell did splendid work.

GLEASON |! IS
BOUND over,
Judge Folsom Decides that Tes.
mony is Sufficient to Hold
Man Charged With Grand
Larceny.

The concluding testimony in the Glea-
son typewriter case which occupied the
attention of court and legal circles most
Of last week. was heard Saturday morn
Ing. The testimony was completed by
Saturday noon and Justice A. P. Folsom
gave his decision at 80 in the after
noon. He announced that the evidence
of the state was sufficient to bind the
defendant, d. j. Gleason. charged with
the larceny 0f typewriter and fixtures
from the Office of Sheriff j. "A. Wiech,
over to district court. The judge accept
ed the same bond of $500 under which
Gleason had previously been placed.
The decision was far from satisfactory
to The defendants attorneys, H. C. Berry
and j. E. Messersmith, and Mr.. Berry
was especially vehement in his protests.
The decision could not have been more
unfavorable to his client interests, for
had Gleason been placed under larger
bonds and jailed, by means of writ of
habeas corpus his release could have
been secured and new trial proceedings
instituted at once.
As it is now it will be necessary to
wait until the next term of district
court.
The PRESS of last week contained a
full account of the testimony up to Satur-
day morning. When court finally came
to order. the defense put on its con-
Guiding witness, DR.. Stephen Fisher.
Dr.. Fisher, who was the coroner of the
county last December, testified that he
served the replevin papers on Sheriff
~Hartung on December 30. It was the
first time that he had been called upon
in his official capacity to do this and
so he was rather ignorant of what was
required of him. He showed the papers
to MIR. Hartung and after looking around
for the property without finding it came
away. Later on he went back with the
papers and demanded the property OF
MIR. Hartung. as he should have done in
the first place, and was informed that
the stuff had been sold at sheriff sale.
The entire testimony hinged on when
the last visit was made and it was q
lawyers battle. Dr.. Fisher was not
certain when it was and at first refused
to swear that it was or was not Decem-
Der 81. Later on. after much wranRlinG
by the lawyers, he stated that he was
very certain it was not December 81 OF
January l. This testimony was of advan-
tage to the prosecution and caused con-
siderable excitement in the court room,
as the witness was called by the de-
fense.
The state then put in its rebuttal.
Ex-sheriff Hartung was recalled and
stated that it was not on December 81
that Dr.. Fisher made his second service,
nor January 1. but was three or foul
days after the first service.
. ALT White testified that he was present
when the property was sold by the
sheriff and that it was about 2 80 on
the afternoon of December 81.
This closed the case. and neither side
offered any argument.

The game between the two boys
teams :wass-pronounced- by. many as
superior to the big game. At any rate.
the boys played fast basket ball and it
was fight to the finish. The smalle r
boys had most of the sympathies of the
audience and they were urged on to
victory with cheers and applause. They
were game little chaps and fought like
tigers.
The older boys are playing good basket
ball and the rivalry between the two
teams makes their contests full of inter-
est. Especially good work was done by
Litch. Kostelecky and Richards for the
older boys and Greene, Roquette, and
Klinefelter for the smaller bows.
