Little Mischief

When the present belle of the White
House, now so tall and sedate, was barely
ten years old, she gained the affection of
many as a wholesome little girl accustomed
to playing with her brothers and full oil
life and mischief. She loved to climb up
the lampposts and put out the lights in the
White House just as the lighter set them
going. - This her usual evening diver
sion, until her father caught her at the
trick, and then she was kept in.-New York

versity held their annual banqust
which is the second affair of this
nature and one of the most enjoyable
in the history of the two organiza-
tons. Early IN the evening i'll their
society hall at the University the So
cieties held an initiation, each taking
in a number of pledges. After the
ceremonies in the college building the
members were taken to the church
in bobsleds where the formal part of
the evenings program was carried
out.
Three long tables were arranged in
the parlors by the ladies who had
charge of the banquet. Decorations
were yellow and red chrysanthemums
Some eighty-ftve guests were seated
around the tables, comprising mem
bers of the Societies, the faculty, and
alumnae. During the serving of the
five course Banquet music was fur
nished by the Koolish orchestra.
Shortly before IL o'clock the toast
master Robert D. Wilde, called the
guests to order and introduced the
nrst speaker of the evening, Miss
Mamie knight of the Italians, who
spoke ON the toast, "Thalia." The
next number, ION the Wing, was
given by H. G. Roberts '09, now pro-
fessor in the Mitchell high school.
Coach Dale E. Chadwick on the toast
"Wearers Of the w" paid a tribute to
the members Of the football squad
who have done SO well this fall, most
of the members of which were
around the banquet table.
AS. an alumnus of the Thalians, Miss
Bessie Hodge 'O8, toasted the two So
in Looking Backward. The
concluding toast of the evening was
given by George w. Grill on the sub
ject OF "Daedalus." Each speaker

affair was very enjoyable and
will be a pleasant remembrance in
the history Of the two Societies.

DAKOTA BEATS iowa
One County In This State Beats Out
tho Best Iowa County on Corn
Production.

South Dakota has achieved quite
. victory over its sister state of Iowa
lin the matter of the production of
corn. A. B. Seaton. who has been
down to his Running Water farm
for the past ten days looking after
his crops came home Thursday after
noon and brought that information.
MI. Seaton said that he was in
conversation with George w. Snow,
of Springfield. formerly lieutenant
governor of the state, concerning the
corn that vas raised in the southern
part Of the state. Mr.. Snow inform
ed Mr.. sSeaton that he had been maxi
ing some Investigations into corn
production and had ascertained that
Bon Homme county had produced
the most corn of any county in South
Dakota. This came as something of
a surprise to Mr.. Seaton, who said:
II always supposed that either Clay,
Yankton or Union county were the
largest corr producing counties in.
the state. and l was surprised to
learn that Bon Homme held that dis
tinction."
Mr.. Seaton stated that Mr.. Snow
commenced an investigation to find
what county in Iowa produced the
most corn and this was learned to
be- Plymouth county. He compared
the production Of Bon Homme coun-
~ with that Of Plymouth county and
the aggregate Of Bon Homme beat
out that Of Plymouth by several hum
dred bushels. Mr.. Seaton said that
.he regretted he could not remember
the total figures in each case. but
there was sufficient difference as to
yield the palm to South Dakota by a
good margin.
That is q pretty good record for
Dakota this year and there is
particular reason why 1t cannot
be kept up year after year. with the
seasons about equal in both states.
It has taken q number Of years to
convince the Iowa farmers that South
Dakota was q good corn producing
state and this record ought to be the
means Of clinching the argument be-
yond all question.

Frank Granger was in the city to-
day from Watertown on his way to
his claim west Of the river. He spent
Saturday in WATERFOWL and said
that the people up there are thor
oughly aroused in their efforts to
find the two young men who were
drowned in Clear Lake. Jerry Kelley
and William johnson. 1t has been
more than q week since the young
men were drowned and all efforts
to find their. bodies have proven
fruitless. The wind has blown so
hard for several days that it was i'm
possible to go on the lake with boats.
''For the first few days.. said Mr..
Granger, there were plenty of vol
unteers to hunt for the bodies, but
as the days. passed by they grew
less until finally there were not
enough men to handle the boats that
were at the disposal of the rescuing
party. Saturday the snowstorm
started in, and made the work much
harder. and there is every probabil-
ity that the lake will freeze over in
a few days, which will put an end
to further work. The rescuing COM
mittee has finally offered men $3.50

Monday evening a little after 6
o'clock a couple of fellows. who were
more or less intoxicated, were heard
Gliding a little girl who was walking
along the street drawing a sled be-
hind her. The fellows didn't seem to
take into consideration the fact that
they were amusing themselves at the
expense of the little girl, and showed
no desire to desist. Arthur Bjodstrop,
who was walking along that way, put
in an interference in the way the
men were acting toward the girl, and
they objected to his having anything
to do about it. Both pitched on to
Mr.. Bjodstrop. and they had quite
q scrap for the time being. After it
was over, the fellows went to the
Highland house. where they we're
stopping got their goods and chattels
and made themselves scarce. The
