Eben E. Dunlap was in Dickinson
last Saturday, returning from Chicago,
where he marketed eight cars of lambs
and mutton sheep about two weeks be-
fore. Mr.. Dunlap, a former Cedar creek
sheep grower. is located sixteen miles
northwest of Isabel, South Dakota, the
terminal of the Milwaukee branch
southwest from Mobridge. The range
is pretty good for grazing sheep down
that way, the early fall rains having
made plenty of grass. Mr.. Dunlap
continues in the sheep business and he
sees no reason why prices should not be
as good next year or better than they
were this season.
I C. C. Mead and ALI. White went out
to New England and Regent on Wednes-
day in the formers automobile. They
expected to attend a foreclosure sale at

The following word comes from Mar
marth AS n of the sons of w. L.

load of bird shot passed through the
wall of the house. tearing a large hole.
A younger brother wal playing about 80
feet away from the house wall. and six
or eight shot entered the back of his
head and side.
Unique and quite out of the ordinary
will be the musical program that will
be offered to our city by William We'll
lington Norton of the State University,
in his lecture recital, 1.-The Ballad, the
Song and the Oratorio," which is to be
given in the High school auditorium
next Thursday evening, November Is.
under the auspices of the Senior class.
AS the title would suggest, the program
will be a varied one and, seconded by
the efforts of the accompanist whom he
will bring with him. Mr.. Norton will
be sure to ieve us some very superior
entertainment. Mr.. Norton is the di-
rector of all the musical activities at
the University and he is able to speak
on musical matters with the word of au-
thority. The vocal and instrument part
of the program will prove equal, if not
superior to the other part and all taken
together, it will be an opportunity that
no one can afford to miss it. The
prices are strictly popular, Csc and IS
cents.
