Wessington's Young men come
over to Miller Sunday for a game
with the local ball tossers-and went
home sadder and wiser. ice Walton
occupied the center of the stage for
Millerand Ernest pulled the curtain
for him. Their work was effective as
disclosed by the box score. The Wis
itors got one man over in the third
frame and one in the fifth on two
lone base hits, a stolen base and a
field error. Walton struck out ii
and passed l.
The locals got one in the LIST, six in
the second, one, two, two, one, in
the succeeding innings. Weaver
pitched some good ball for the WIS.,
ltors, got 9 strlkeouts and gave 5
bases on balls. Miller got 6 base
hits, z stolen bases and five earned
runs. Moore at short, and O'Mara
at LIST attracted the fans by clever
work A new mar appeared in the
local line up, Segar at Sd. He makes
several motions like a ball player,
and the fans welcome him. The
team is coming, but needs regular
practice, systematic teamwork, and
coaching If they go up against real
organized ball like Redfeld or
Huron. No-thanks. No cha..gel
Guy McElrath, of Washington,
called the stee-rikes, and Jim Mag
ness, of st. Lawrence, arbitrated the
bases.
The official rooter was Dick Mag
ness, a younger brother of this fam
lily of famous auctloners. And ''be-
lieye me- he is some worry, because
he made both Joe O'Conner and Sam
Bostwick sit up and take notice, and
that is good for three tickets to the
Scenic any Saturday afternoon.

Mr. Frank Myers, so years old
Tuesday, was the recipient of many
congratulations from his friends. old
and young. The event was properly
observed at the home Of his daught-
err, Mrs w. H. Waters. west 9Th ST.,
where she had gathered a dozen of
his old comrades of the Candy Post
G. A. r. to spend the evening.
"Uncle Myers" is a hale, hearty,
young-old gentleman-perhaps the
pioneer of all of us-as he passed
near this locality in 1864, with the
Sully expedition against the Indians
of the northwest, and which ne has

DELIVERY
STARTED MONDAY
Shall We Keep 1t Or Turn II
Down?

Postoffce Inspector Collier install
ed the free delivery of mails in Miller
Monday. with Harry Smith as carri-
er. Two deliveries and collections
r made each day. except Sunday.
at 1880 A. M. and 12:45 r. M.
This delivery is an experiment of
the ~postoffice department to see what
the people Of smaller cities want
and it is plainly up to the citizens
themselves whether it is continued
permanently, or only a limited time.
Every patron of the office in Miller
should arrange to use the delivery,
because the postmaster's daily re-
cord will soon show whether the ex-
pertinent is useful or not to enough
patrons to justify its continuance.
This delivery is a step in the line
of progress. is enjoyed by all larger
cities. and is a real convenience just
as soon as all details are arranged
and the patrons become accustomed
to it. No town or city ever rejects
it, after once getting used to it,
hence it must be considered to be a
good thing.
The city will put up street names,
and number all buildings. The pat
rons will put numbers on their build
ings and put w some kind of a mail
box.
The PRESS accepts the evidence of
all other towns and cities. and adj
vises its readers to patronize the de-
livery and make it one of the city's
permanent improvements.
