to tell of the advantages to be derived

advantages of our town. He is always
boosting for bigger and better Hot

why waste lot of time talking about
it but wanted everyone to put should

The last speaker to be introduced

account of the lateness of the hour
when he was called on, his remarks
were of necessity very brief but also
very much to the point.
Just previous to the close of the
meeting DIR. e. Ii. Speigelberg arose
and made a motion to the effect that

To- 0. F. ENCAMPMENT TEAM
WON HIGHEST hONORS.
ARRIVED HERE WEDNESDAY
hot SPRINGS BOYS WIN one FIRST
and one SECOND PRIZE AT
WINNIPEG, CANADA.

It is not often that city the size of
Hot Springs has a chance to compete
with the worlds best but when they do
1t is generally to their credit as WAS the
case last week when the |. o. y. F..
Encampment team from this city
jourpeyed to Winnipeg Canada, to III
tend the International meeting of the
Odd Fellows and to compete with other
teams from different portions of the
world in the Golden Rule and Patriar
chial degrees.
What they did there is matter Of
pride to every resident in Hot Springs
since their return home Wednesday
morning. In the Golden Rule degree
they secured second prize and in the
Patriarchisl degree won the first prize
with ease. Their performance is simply
marvellous when the fact is taken into
consider alton that over 100000 Odd
Fellows we're in atteb dance at this
meeting. Even teams from far away
Australia we're present. Over $4,000
we're in line at one of the parades.
The boys are high in praise of the
treatment accorded them while in
Winnepeg and also at the cities in
which they stopped on their way there
and return Enroute to Winnipeg
they stopped one night at Sioux Falls
aud conferred the degrees there.
To the average person in Hot Springs
it may he said that they hardly realize
what this team has done for the city
by competing and winning these prizes.
As matter of fact they have adver-
tised this city to greater extent by
this one performance than every other
method Of advertising which has been
done this year aud they have set peo
pie to talking of Hot Springs who
never heard of the place before.
With the exception of Lewis Engei
bert and Gus Rlordan, who stopped
over in st. Paul for few days, the re
msinder of the team as given i'm a re-

MONDAY.
Bishop George Biller, lately ordained
Episcopal Bishop and elected to the
diocese of South Dakota, held services
and confirmed GLASS Of six in ST.
Luke's Episcopal church on Monday
evening.
This is the first time Bishop Biller has
visited Hot Springs and it is among
the first places he has visited since his
ccnsecration as bishop. The confirma-
tion service was very beautiful and
impressive and the Bishops talk to
the class was masterpiece of kindly
admonition toward the systematic
building of pure and growing chris
tian character. His sermon, as he
stated in the beginning, was more of .
talk to his people. He assured them
of his deep interest in the work in the
Black Hills, evidenced by the fact that
his first visit after his consecrstion was
to this section.
He complimented the communicates
of st. Lukes church especially for
their energy and faithfulness in keep.

Bishop Biller is the youngest man

reap great and material benefit from

One of the men who knew Lincoln

He became keen)y interested in assist

portrayal of the president faithful to
the spirit of the man he had known.
General Howard first saw Mr.. Chaplin
in the four act Lincoln monologue at
his home city, Burlington, Vermont, in
1905, and they had long visit the next
day. Then in 1909 the General saw Mr..
Chapin's four act play "Linooln" then
running at the Hackett Theatre in

After the third act, in response to
nine curtain calls, MIR. Chaplin thanked
the audience. then smiling up at the

Rapid City, S. D.-Democrats and

smiles of quiet satisfaction yester-
lay. BY the underground route from
Washington ii had been rumored,
tllat the recommendation made by
President Taft that George p. Ben
nett be appointed receiver in the
United States land Office would be
held up. 1t was stated hat Mr.. Ben
nett's name would not be presented
for confirmation because Senator Lid
Toilette and democratic senators hat
formed a working combination &c
block all the Taft appointments.
1t is known that at the time OF the
sending of Benefits name to the
senate for confirmation local politi-
clans other than standpatters were
considerably disgruntled at the pros
pect of having to wait four years be
fore enjoying the emoluments of an
Office as fat as is that OF land Office
receiver and requiring so little work
Mr.. Bennett took little interest in his
confirmation, his business affairs de.
mand all OF his time and attention.
