The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1910-06-09

The work of the week has been ac-
complished in the raising of the $780,
600 desired by Dakota Wesleyan Uni
versity to make doubly sure of the
100000 in sight. The final touches
were put on Tuesday evening when
the last ditch was crossed for the
$4,000 goal. 1t did not stop there,
to the total sum raised was $54,479
At the noon day luncheon Tues
day there was $4,000 shy of the
needed amount. There were some t.
be brought into the fold who had
hung back-not that they did not in
tend to give, but, rather to urge some
others on the spirit of giving. 1t
seemingly had the desired effect and
toward the closing of the day the
subscriptions commenced to roll in
to cheer the hearts of the other CIV
ers, for it al then evident that $780,
900 was an assured thing.
Five good men of Mitchell showed
their great loyalty and generosity by
each subscribing $4,000. and when,
the last one put his signature to the
paper it touched the electric spark
for others to Join in the giving and
the last lap al found to be the cas-.
lest Of any. The $4,000 mark was
SO easily attained at the last and the
spirit of giving was so rampant that
the amount was easily increased by
$4,000. The grond total brought Joy
to the hearts Of the supporters of the
University, and the joyful news was
spread over the city by the ringing Of
the church bell. and the blowing of
the water works whistle fifty times,
once for each thousand dollars. It
told the glorious story to the citi-
Gems, and they knew what it meant
when the whistle gave that many
short blasts. The University band
came down town and played.
The task Of raising the $4,000
was commenced on Monday, May 80,
and it was designed to make the
campaign short and furious. There
were many who felt that the sum was
too large a one to be raised in Nit
chell. For that amount had to be
raised here before President Kerfoot
and his staunch supporters could 90
out over the state and ask those
friends Of the University to aid In
the great undertaking. Captains
were elected. teams we're organized.
and the men Of the city we're grouped
into classs for the solicitors to see.
The work was planned with great
care and the system adopted val
found to be an excellent one for the
short campaign.
The men felt there was much at
stake in raising this money, for It
meant q greater institution and al
greater Mitchell. which was adopted
as the slogan Of the campaign. All
splendid nucleus had been formed by
the donation Of James ]. Hill, the
Great Northern railroad manager; q
$4,000. provided 100000 is raised
in the state. OF this $4,000, $780,
