BALL TOURNAMENT
High School Basketball
Meet at Hun on in
March

Huron, Dec. 20.-The annual South
Dakota high school basketball tourna-
ment will be held in Huron on March
30 and 81, 1914. and will be conduct
ed on the same plan as the tournaments
of the last two years.
This will be the third annual
tournament, and the date set seems
to be the one most satisfactory to the
high schools, inasmuch as it gives
them all an opportunity to play out
their fall schedules and make this
their final effort of the season. At
the first tournament, ten teams regis
tered and eight entered the contest.
Last year. eighteen teame registered,
but on account of snowb0und trains
only twelve finally entered. Judging
by reports from various parts of the
state, a much larger number will en-
ter this year.
A silver loving cup. twenty inches
in height, is offered to the team that
will first have won three annual con-
tests. Besides the tournament cup. a
fine annual cup is awarded to the
winner of the contest each year.
Aberdeen high school was the winner
last year and Rsdteld won two years
ago.
These contests are conducted under
the auspices of Huron college and are
managed directly by the athletic
committee. The college pay all
necessary expenses of local entertain
meni for teams of eight men each from
all high schools whom the State High
school association has declared eligible
to enter. The state committee de-
cides on the eligibility of individual
players. as we'll as team eligibility,
ia accordance with the rules and
req ulatious Of the association.

nothing else than killing off the
coyotes. G. G. Erickson, Of Roch-
ford, who is experienced in this work,
has been engaged by the government
to trap and kill as many coyotes AS

from Rapid City. The several trips
recently of Milwaukee officials into
the Black Hills on a reconnaissance re-
vived the talk Of extension west and it
is now understood that this is being
seriously considered but Just what
route west from Rapid City will be
taken in 40 n matter of conjecture
Il In also generally understood that
any extension Of the Rapid City line
will join the Mi waukee's northern
route neal either Miles City. Mont. or
Yarmouth. N. D. and that the Faith
line in this state will also be extended
to make a junction with the northern
route.

den Herick has filed with the gov
ernor the fourth annual report of
that department. ending with June

$47, 759. 81, of which $40, O34. 81 was
license money.
The disbursements showed warrants
issued to the extent of a., 96S. 13. and
cash on hand June 80. 1913, of $42,-
773. Is. In the report the game war
den informs the governor that the de-
crease in deer in this state is very
alarming. and attributes the condition
to depredations of wolves on the
young stock. He urges that more
land be devoted by the state to large
game, surh as deer. He recommends
some particular sections in the Black
Hills which will never be used for
other purposes. 1t is annoucned that
elk are entirely extinct 10 this state,
and there are recommendations that
some be imported.
The squirrels ale not decreasing,
but the game warden recommends
that they be given protection
than they have at present, because
they furnish a living TO many per
sons 10 the Black Hills, who sell the
pine cones which the squirrels have
gathered and stored up. These cones
are supplied to the government at good
prices. and the industry of the spur
rels makes an easy method of secur-
ing them.

A Delightful Christmas
is a piece of hand-painted china which
is both charming and acceptable, to
young and old. To those who are not acquaint-
ed with our line we would say that we have a
very fair line of these goods from both Packard Studios
and White Art Co., who are the foremost decorators,
hence our china should not be confused with the ordi-
nary hand painted china, as both lines are so far adj
vanced in the art that they stand distinctly in a class by
themselves, each piece a master idea carried to per-
lection by artists whose very hearts and souls go into
their handiwork. Every piece is a painting in porcelain, done with all
the feeling, all the exquisite technique and all the wealth of colonng that
is admired in the product of pallet and brush. To attempt to put into
words a description of these beautiful conceptions, would be to attempt
to paint the lily"

mir Spoons: The most popular seller is Brth-Month Spoon at ST so

wished that he had a handsome coat.
And it was all because of the soft,

at him once, and he felt pretty sure
that they had peeped out at him
often. He felt sure that it was little
Miss Fuzzytail herself who had left
the pile of sweet clover close by his
summing bank while he was asleep.
The fact is, Peter Rabbit was falling
