HEARD FROM HIS JOB
Henry Swindler Notified to Conn
meme 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 OF less a joke, and it had
not been made.
Yesterday, however, the situation
put on a different light, when he
received a telegram from the acting
commissioner of the general land Of
flee. Mr.. Valentine, authorizing him
to report to Charles II. Bates, at
Fort Yates, to begin the work of APP
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 my
thing to the appointment.

SOCIAL OCCASION
Twentieth Century Club Held an Eli
.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 a
few other guests that were invited
were: DR.. and Mrs. Weir, Mr.. and
Mrs. S. H. Scallin, MIR. and Mrs. H.
r. 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 We're 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 c%andelabra 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 we're 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
deftly 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, Youngman 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
its annual picnic, this being the last
gathering of the club members I'M
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
cd for IL Big Affair.

Mitchell Will have her annual corn
palace enterprise again this year.
The dates are from Sept. 81 to
Oct. 9. 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 we're
taken Tuesday afternoon, when the
committee met at 4 O'Clock for re-
organization. The committee or
ganized as follows:
President-Wm. M. Smith.
Vice presidents. E. Morris.
Secretary-L. T.. Ness.
Treasurer. I. Morrow.
President Smith appointed the fol-
lowing committees:
Building and Decorations-John
Michels, j. H. Davis.
County Exhibits. r. Morris, j.
T. Morrow.
Finance. j. WEIGH.
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 OF 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 was the concensus Of opinion that
the cor palace should take on 4
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 sources
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 coin palace proposition looks
like a very fine winner this ycar 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 e~ndeavored 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 attest 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 assur
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.
