THE GR|EGS ARE COMING
WILL BE IN WEBSTER ON
JUNE THE It'll
THE BIG SCANDINAVIAN DAY
Great Musical Organization
From Lincoln County
of Twenty Five Mem
bers. 10 Years Old

The committee having in charge the
celebration which will occur in this city
on June z, are doing all they can to
secure attractions which will be in
keeping with the event which they
celebrate.
Nearly all you Scandinavian readers
have heard of the "Griegs," the great
Scandinavian musical organization of
Lincoln county, which has been in
existence for the past fifteen years and
have become so perfected as to have
attracted national fame. This COM
pany have been secured as one of the
attractions for June Z.
Another pleasing feature which has
been arranged for the day is Flag
Parade" of as many of the school
children of the county as can be inter
ested. This is under the management
of County Superintendent j. II. Hetley
The managers of the celebration have
purchased three hundred American
flags. One hundred and fifty Nor
wegian flags and one hundred and fifty
Swedish flags and more will be pro-
vided if more children signify a desire
to take part in the parade. Each child
will be presented with the flag carried
in the parade.
A very pretty badge has been secured
for the occasion. 1t consists of a but
ton with the three flags, American,
Norwegian and Swedish with the
American in the center, the Norwegian
on the right and the Swedish on the
left. This is fastened at the top of a
silk ribbon on which are printed the
words Celebration, June z, 1911,
Webster, South Dakota. 1t makes a
very neat job and will be kept by many
as a souvenir of the day.
There will be many funny stunts
pulled off on that day. For instance
the committeeman have arranged for
three tugs of war" and have selected
the Norwegians under Chris Grue, to
compete with the Swedes urder Her
man Olson; the Germans under p. j.
Roth, will try to out pull the Polanders
under Gus Block; DIR. M. M. Judge will
marshall the Irish aga inst the Yankees

There will be three purses of $40 each.
Of course at this early date it is not
possible to give all the program but a
purse of Si00 has been hung up by the
committee for ball game which is a
guarantee that two good clubs will be
secured and hot game will be played.
1t does not make any diffeaence what
your nationality is there is good time
in store for you in Webster on June z.

Won Most of Them

Attorney Frank Sears was busy the
last of last week and the fore part of
this week in the United States court
at Aberdeen where he was associated
in several cases with Thomas Mani, the
young Indian attorney, of Sisseton,
who is making a splendid reputation
for himself in all of the courts of this
section of South Dakota and promises
to be one of the leading attorneys of
South Dakota. The first case tried
was that of the government VS.. Yellow
Back, an Indian, who was charged
with larceny of $40 steer from
Rattle Tails. This case was dismissed.
The second case was Uncle Sam vs.,
Oliver Campbell charged with introduce
ing liquor on the reservation. He was
advised to plead guilty and drew six
months in the Brown county Jail.
John p. Stevens, another case of the
same kind which these attorneys were
not retained, fought his case and was
convicted receiving, as bouquet from
the judge, two years in Leavenworth.
The cases of the government VS. John
Duzan and John Tew, charged with
bootlegging, was dismissed.
The case of Enoch Reddy, who is
charged with rape, which is a capital
offense under the federal laws, was
continued.
Messrs. Sears and Mani can feel
that they were very successful at the
4 berdeen term.
