Daniel Blake Russell returned to Dick

kept busy since renewing acquaintance
and telling his friends of the world
famed Russell will trial which occupied
121 days in the Middlesex probate court
of Massachusetts. Dan Russell, ia
military known as Dakota DAM in
and about Boston, was on the stand ii
days himself, and he tells the PRESS
that he was just getting warmed up to
the situation when the lawyers decided
to let him alone.
Dan Russell has been away from
Dickinson about IA months, and he has
changed a good deal in this time. He
is looking healthier and better than he
used to look. and many people did not
recognize him at first. The Boston life
seems to have given him q good deal
of the eastern polish.
Tuesday afternoon at 2 O'Clock Senator
1. A. Simpson. arrived home. He was
just in time to vote, but for the first
time in over 20 years took no part in
the general election.
Senator Simpson has about recovered
from his illness last spring, and ap.
pears himself again. He does not give
out anything definite regarding the
Russell will suit, but from all that his
friends can gather lie is we'll satisfied
with the present status of the case.
Dan Russell left his wife in charge oil

that he will be out here for a month o.

The boy Scouts is a new movement
in America, with headquarters at New

where, it has been tried and tested
thoroughly, it has practically revolution

side boys into the schools and keeping
them in touch with the work. 1t II
