four years, and next week will be pre-
sented to the court for the 72d time.

will never come to trial.

June 3rI to July 4th.
Much interest centers in the play
ground soon to be opened in Daw-
son. 1t has been deemed advisable
to postpone the date from June 3rd
to July 4th. This will give ample
time for getting everything in read
mess to make the occasion notable
one in the city's history. A commit
tee of enthusiastic women, who are
the promoters of this splendid move
ment looking to the welfare of the
children, have secured equipment
that will provide wholesome amuse-
ment for all Different organizations
and individuals have been generous
in donations of the necessary appa-
ratus for properly fitting up the
grounds.
July 4th seems an opportune time
for launching this enterprise, which
will mean SO much to the community
in that it will furnish a breathing
place for the grown-ups and healthful
play for the young folks out under
the beautiful trees surrounding the
school buildings.
The playground will always be in
charge of responsible persons whose
aim will be to make it serve the high
purpose for which it was planned
