TO MARK INDIAN
BATTLE GROUNDS
q. A. RS Want Monuments To
Mark Gen. Sully's Indian
Expedition

The state encampment of the e..
A. K. in June will start a movement
to secure an appropriation from con-
gress to mark the principal battle
grounds of General Sully's expedi-
ton through this state against the
Indians in 1864.
During the past year a committee
has gone over the old route and
located the battle grounds, and their
report will be acted upon at the
coming encampment. An old diary
kept by one of the soldiers served
as a guide to mark the route, which
extended from Sioux Falls through
South Dakota, southwestern North
Dakota and Montana.
This famous expedition is of some
local interest, as Mr. Frank Myers,
of Miller, was with General Sully
through this campaign, and is well
acquainted with the details of it..
1t was through the work Of General
Sully and his soldiers, that the Sioux
Indians were first put in subsection,
and not until the Custer campaign,
twelve years later, did they regain
their scattered strength.
1t is only fitting that these monu-
ments should be erected to properly
commend rate the expedition which
made possible the later settlement
and civilization of these northwest
states.

HURON LAKE
CLAIMS THREE
Three Girls Drown I'm Lake Near
Huron Sunday

Huron, May % Sunday after
noon while rowing on Lake Byron.
sixteen miles from here, three girls
we're drowned. The dead are as
follows: Misses Lydia and Leila
Bonesteel, aged 10 and Is years and
Miss Jessie Broe. aged Is years.
The three girls we're rowing on the
lake, which is quite a resort for the
people Of Huron. They were not
over 100 feet from shore when they
decided to change seats in the boat.
To accomplish this, a couple of
them stood up in the boat and in the
attempt to move about, the frail
craft was upset and the three girls
thrown in the water and drowned.
&. H. Bonesteel is n of the best
known engineers on the Northwest
ern and he was at Cakes at the time
of the catastrophe. He was given
right of way and furnished an engine
and caboose for his return.
The terrible event has thrown a
pail of sorrow over Huron for the
victims were very popular young
people. Miss LYDIA was to have
been married this summer.

The Aberdeen Boosters excursion

Miller was another bright spot in
the course of a happy day When
the train arrived a score of automo-
biles were waiting at the station and
the boosters were transformed into
the boosted for they were helped in
to the cars by the good people of
Miller and shown the many sights
of that splendid Dakota town. For
a town of its size it has more new

NEW OUTFIT FOR
ELECTRIC PLANT
New Engine Equipment Insures
Excellent Light Service

The new machinery in the electric
light plant was put in S for the
first time last Thursday night and the
test proved that Miller was to be
supplied with the best of lights in
the future. With the growth of the
city, the old plant had ceased to be
sufficient. as the engine was taxed
to its fullest capacity, thus making it
impossible to i've the best of service
The electric light plant was Install
ed in Miller SIX years ago by S.Pauly
and was run by him for a yea or
two, then taken over by a stock COM
pany. 1t is now owned by the Miller
Electric Co.. under the management
Of Louis Cellough. With the new e.
quipment the light system will be
extended quite extensively about
the newer parts of the city, and
possibly to st. Lawrence.
A comparison of the respective
power Of the old and new outfits
will serve to show what the differ
ence IN the light service will be.
The old engine was an Ideal so II,
p, dynamo, 374 K. w, 220 volts
direct current, equivalent to o36-16
candle power lamps. The lev one
is an Allis Chalmers Corlis $50 H. F.,
capable of an overload of so II. p,
giving an actual capacity of 200 H.
P, dynamo Us K. w. capable of IS
per cent overload, making actual ca
pacitv $50 K. w., 100 volts alter
mating current. equaling over 5000
16 candle power lamps. Owing to
the fact that only about half the act
ual number of lamps on the lines
are burning at one time, this mach
inc will easily handle 1000 lamps on
the lines, or about twice that num-
Der of Tungsten lamps.
Many complimentary remarks are
heard concerning the new service,
and Miller now has cause to feel
proud of one of the best equipped
plants i'm this section of the state.

were Is schools participating, and
five state records we're broken.
Huron secured AZ points, and her
nearest opponent was Belle Frouche
with II points. Roy Kenyon, of Mil

their success is said to be due to his
