A Secre,.

Some folks git up and holler
About their lists OF rights;
They spend their days In protests,
And jest can't sleep o. nights;
But, stead of all this yellin,'
Which gives chance to shirk,
The thing that they are needin.
Some folks are allus fussin'
Cause someone's hurt their toes:
Someone isshovin' elbows,
And that adds to their woes,
They turn to legislation
To bring 'em corn and oil,
But the secret of succeedin'
is toil-and then more toll.

Republican.

We see by the dailies that the Ma
sons Of the United States are going to
build a million dollar Masonic Temple
at Alexandria, Virginia, where the
temple stood wherein George Wash
ington was master When we we're
down there in Decem ber 1905 we visit
ed the old temple and therein found
some of the most priceless relics Of
the Father Of his Country, that exist.
Among them Is the trowel with
which Washington laid the corner
stone OF the National Capitol build
ing at Washington, the chair he oc-
cupied as Master. a clock he gave to
the lodge, which Is valued at 800, 900,
the apron and the regalia he wore
when officiating as Master, his gavel,
and hundred other things Of inter
est, among them being some Of the
corn, oil and wine, used in the dedi-
cation of the temple, and also used in
the dedication exercises of the capital
building in 1893 1t is an interesting
place, that old temple, hung with
memories OF the greatest man the
Nation ever saw w-Hudsonite.

CANTON SENDS
LARGE CROWD
Mrs. Schumann-Heink Draws Can
ton Music Lovers to Sioux
Falls last Friday.


Sioux Falls last Friday to hear that
world renowned singer that appeared
with her company in that city, and
all came home highly elated over the
fact that they we're fortunate enough
to hear so great an artist.
Madame Schumann- Heink Is not
the reserved party that one would ex-
pect In such a world renowned artist.
She is OF the commoners.
But at the concert she was never In
better spirits and better voice, and
she explained this In short after
entertainment talk with the one re-
mark, "Why could not an artist do
their best surrounded by such sympa-
thetic audience"
There were a number Of side fea-
lures connected with the appearance
of the singer. The one unpleasant
feature was the fact that some people
are bound to be late. There was one
stop OF five minutes when the singer
would not proceed with the program
on account of the late arrivals. Ii
these late arrivals could understand
the situation they would probably
plan to arrive earlier
One OF the pleasant fea lures OF the
program was the appearance Of little
Miss Crossman, daughter Of Mr., and
Mrs. Grant Crossman, who appeared
from the wing at the end of one OF
the selections, bearing shower bou-
quet of roses. When the singer was
called back to the stage she dropped
on her knees and took the little one
in her arms and imprinted more than
one motherly kiss on her brow and
cheeks. Madame Schumann- Heink, by
this one little motherly act ingratiaJ.
ed herself in the hearts of Sioux Falls
music lovers.
So far as the program of last even
ing is concerned 1t was unquestionably
the very best ever given In this city.
The writer is ill-prepared to write OF
the program. Madame Schumann-
Heink was at her best and with such
q large and sympa thetic audience
how could she do differently from
what she did, She put her whole
soul In her singing and at the close OF
the concert she remarked that she
never worked harder in her whole
career to please an audience than on
this occasion.
The personality of Schumann-H
is as strong as that OF the artist. She
Is ever self-possessed as was illustrat-
ed In the early part OF the program
when her number was interrupted by
the later arrival of some people.
The one disappointment Of the pro-
gram was that there were not some
English numbers. The melody carri
es In German selection as well as
any other but many would like tc
follow the words as we'll as the music
However, 1t can be truthfully sale
that Madame Schumann-Heink gave
Sioux Falls the most satisfactory
musical entertainment ever presented
here.
Edward Collins, the pianist Of th'
company, is a great artist. He was ;
good second to the singer on the pro
gram. Nothing but words Of prais'
are heard of his part Of the program

A New Book By Haskin.

Frederick j. Haskin, one of the
most popular members of National
Press Club in Washington, was presi-
dent of that organization last year.
In the fall he returned from trip
and announced that he would not be
candidate tor reelection because his
work in connection with the sale and
publication OF book he had written
would take up all his time.
After making the announcement,
he went to many OF his friends and
inquired solicitousy whether, II he
had run again, they would have
voted for him. Knowing his tender
sensibllities and wishing to annoy
him, they all answered as follows;
Certainly not! Why should we
vote for you?
All OF which cast Mr.. Haskin into
the depths Of gloom. The following
day he was seen in little notebook
His face wore funeral expression.
What is Haskin doing over there?
asked somebody.

Canton Lost Hard Fought Game
By Injuries to Stars Early in
First Half.
Girls Win Too, as did the Second
Squad

Yes, Canton lost to the Vermillion
giants, but lost in a way that makes
every basket ball fan in Canton proud
OF the way Canton went down in de-
feat. Injuries TO BODY" Roberts and
Stanley Forrest early in the first half
put Canton chances below. par, al
though the new men in their places
fought game fight and deserve great
credit.
The game started at S:22 p. m. and
from the irst loot" of the referees s
whistle, the fans knew real game
was on. Back and forth the Yer
million six footers fought with Can
tons little men but with no advan-
tage. When the first half was up,
Stanley Forrest could hardly stand
alone, and only his nerve kept him on
his one leg as the knee OF the other
was very badly strained. "Boby"
Roberts who went in the game with
sprained hand could not touch his
hand to the ball and so Canton had to
start the second half with two new
men and one man out Of position.
Pulver and CorSon went in place of
Forrest and Roberts and played the
game OF their young lives holding down
their men, although just about half
their size, in way that was startling.
Canton played hard but could not
overcome Vermillions 3 point lead and
the game ended 81 to "a in Vermillions
favor.
1t was game that made man
want to cry, laugh and cuss all in one
breath and then die. Oh, but just
the same, Canton died game and we
are proud OF our boys.
The Canton high girls and the Sc
cond squad played the Lennox high
school girls and boys Saturday night
at Lennox and both teams won. The
girls won their game by score of II

panied the team and all report Lennox

"A very efficient system Of wire

all patients have the knack OF trans.
hitting messages, otherwise che news
of serious cases would not travel SO
quickly and accurately from ward to
ward. 1t is contrary to the rules for
hospital attendants to retail gossip,
and most of them do observe strict
secrecy, yet Notwithstanding that pre-.
caution there is never an interesting
case in the building whose history ie
not known and discussed In the re-
hottest corner.
Last week boy suffering from a
peculiar hind of throat trouble was
brought into first floor ward. The
doctors were very much interested in
The case yet they took special pains
never to mention 1t in the hearing OF
another patient. But for all the good
their caution did they might as well
nave lectured on the case in every
ward: for when the boy died men and
