The total rainfall for the week thus

TEN THOUSAND AUTOS
Secretary of State Says There Ar
Over That Number in State,

Bismarck, N. D., June 13.-Thers
are over 10000 automobiles in the
state of North Dakota, according to
the secretary Of state, who has al
ready issued 1920 licenses and tags,
the number issued during 1911. It IL
stated that there r still about 5000
more automobiles in the state to be
registered, many of which have. been
purchased during the past six months.
The number Of motorcycles regis
tered during 1911 was 266, and this
number has nor than doubled thus
far. 1t is not believed that all Of the
other machines were purchased this
year, however. but the increase Is
ascribed principally to the failure Of
motorcycle owners to register their
possessions last year.
A fee of SO is paid to the secretary
Of state for the registration Of each
car, and the monsy received Il turned
over to the various county t~reasnrers
to be used in road improvement work
in each county. 1t is believed that
the good roads campaign will be given
ar added impetus as the result Of the
application Of this fund to this pur-
pose.
The fact that the 5000 cars pur-
chased in the state during the past
six months have cost approximately
5000, 900 is a splendid example Of
the prosperity Of its citizens.

SACRED CONCERT
IN MAYWLLE
Concert Given BY the Choir
of St. Olaf's College
a Big Hit.

Mayville. N. D.. June 13.-The
sacred concert given by the choir of
st. olaf's college in the assembly room
been given In this vicinity for years.
The music lovers of Mayvalle had ex-
pected something fine. for they at
tended in such laree numbers that
standing room was the only thing left
for those who came late; yet the music
justified the large attendance.
The choir Is made up of beautifully
blended voices. all true and mellow,
yet of great carrying power. The en-
semble effect was we'll nigh perfect;
each artist sang as a member Of the
choir, but when occasion demanded
the solo voices led splendidly and did
their parts well. In this respect es-
pectal mention should be made of the
superb rendition Of the folk song
"Taenk mar engang," by Mr.. Boo.
The harmony, beauty. and spirit of
every selection was we'll in keeping
with the nature of the program.
OF the. work of the conductor. F.
Melius Christensen, too much could
hardly be said. He was, almost liter
ally, the choir. Not an eyelid, so
seemingly, was lifted but in response
to his baton. Nothing any better in
the way of leadership and interpreta-
tioA COOau Uo AidO, anu WIleu we con.
slider that many Of the selections sung
by this choir are Mr.. C~hristiansen's
own arrangements. the true musicians
ship Of the man is more apparent.
The director certainly lived up to the
reputation he has won in the north
west.
Lastly. the three violin solos by
Adolph Olson added much to the
, pleasure of the listeners. and were in
lkeeping with the high standard of the
whole concert. Nothing but the re-
quest to refrain from applause would
have kept the audience from making
this artist play three more.
The community and the normal
school will be glad to have this group
of artists visit the school again.
At the close OF the concert the nor.
NAL students invited the singers. thei-
friends, and the faculty to the gym
nasium for a reception. The room,
was fittingly decorated with pennants
and, from a booth in one r ice
cream and waters were served. The
reception was a most enjoyable hour
and gave their admirers an opportun-
ity to meet the members of the choir
and to express their appreciation of
the singing. =
