DIR. SEAMAN DELIVERS BACCAL.
AUREATE AND REV. MIR.
HOUSER UNIVERSITY SER =
MON FOR DAKOTA IVES
LEYAN,

commencement exercises for the
college graduates at Dakota Wesley
an opened yesterday, when President
William Grant Seaman delivered a
most impressive baccalaureate SER
mon at 1880 a. M, in the First
Methodist church. The customary
practice was observed of having the
Seniors present in caps and gowns;
followed by the faculty members
they entered in procession as the last
bell rang and took seats in the front
pews. A large audience, including
out-of-town people, were present.
DR.. Seaman's main appeal was
for achievement. This achieve
ment,'' he said, "can only be
brought about through the fire and
enthusiasm of youth, combined with
lofty ideals and true moral and re-
ligious perspective" This thought
was amplified by vivid illustrations
from history and a keen analysis of
life's work. Two things, according
to the speaker, are essential in every
self, and the power to make ones
latter comes mainly in youth; Luth-
CT, AieAdlueI, NdpoleOH, wesley,
and other prominent figures of his
tory wrought their accomplishments
before they were thirty-tive.
DR.. Seaman closed with a direct
talk to the graduates, declaring that
great achievements We're demanded
of these who were favored with a
college education. The speakers
scholarly and inspiring address en-
HANGED by an earnest and polished de-
livery was the subject of much
favorable comment and formed a
very suspicious opening to the COM
mencement exercise.
The University Sermon.
The annual University sermon was
given in the evening at the Metho-
dist church by j. p. Houser, of
Mexico City, Mexico. Rev. Mr..
Houser Is an alumlus of Wesleyan
graduating in 1899 and spent the in
tervening time as a missionary. His
address dealt with Mexican condi-
lions and the problems confronting
the Christian worker in that Land.
Mexican people are not, according
civilization as is usually pictured by
the American press. The causes for
whatever failings they may have are
found in history. Tradition and sup
erstition implanted by the Spaniards,
the semi-feudal system, and the mix
ture of races account for the lack of
advancement by these people.
He concluded with a very optimis-
tic prediction for the future of this
Southern Republic. The government

1000 ELKS AT RAPID
CITY.

Rapid City, S. D.-"It's grand. No,
grand is not the word. It's sublimely
grand, beautifully magnificent and
inspiringly wonderful"
Such was the term applied to Dark
Canyon by an Aberdeen lady, who
visited this beauty spot OF nature
in the canyon.
AS early as six o'clock Elks began
to appear upon the streets and not
a few visited the Fountain of Per-
petual Youth on Hangman's Hill. By
this time Vice President Crary was
ready to dispatch his repair train
and there was a fair sized crowd at
the depot of the r. G. b. Fl. & w.
railroad ready to make the trip to
Mystic and return. Half an hour
later a train of six coaches, all filled
to capacity, was dispatched for Dark
Canyon, and two more trips were
made before all of the Elks and their
friends had been landed.
The attention of the first arrivals
were directed to some tracks in the
walk leading to the glen and in
formed that a herd of wild Elk had
preceded them sometime during the
night and some inquiring ones
thought they could discern where the
animals had cropped the heritage in
the parking. The deer had come
down the railroad track and crossed
the creek owe the f%ootpath, leaving
the imprint of dainty hoofs in the
soft clay.
In preparation for the days
festivities the Elks assisted by Frank
Lockhart, had made many improve
ments. A substantial bridge had
been thrown across the creek and
approaches easy of passage con-
structed. All underbrush had been
removed, leaving the sod clean and
the live oaks rendered grateful shade
in the enclosure shut in by majestic
rocks.
Preceding the first special train,
John P. McElroy, Ed Stenger, Harry
Jones. Charles j. Buell. and Jesse
Borland accompanied by a party OF
young Elks had arrived at the can
yon on the regular train. The elders,
clad in o%veralls and armed with tri-
dents and shovels, were busily en-
gagged in experimenting the cooking
of 1000 pounds of trout. Shielded
from the SUI by a canvas canopy and
protected from the interested crowd
by tables of planking these connois-
suer of fried trout cooked the fish

Hour Yesterday.
SOME BIG HAIL

Glass-Wide Area Is Cow
cred by Rains.

A two inch rain yer a large part
of South Dakota yesterday afternoon,
accompanied by a driving wind and
some hail, did not a little damage and
brought the total rainfall registered
at Mitchell since May LIST up to 9.04
inches.
AT Mitchell a little hail fell with
the rain for over half an hour. There
was not a great deal of it at any one
time, but the tones grew in size
until some We're nearly as large as
hens eggs
Undoubtedly the largest sufferers
were the greenhouses. The New
burys lost 1000 square feet of glass
and suffered several hundred dollars
to growing trees and plants. The
Dethlefs greenhouses lost so squares
of glass and there also growing
things we're injured
The water came down in torren-
tial fashion, the total rainfall in a
little over an hour OF actual raining
being 1.S9 inches. The water came
at such rate that the storm sewers,
large as they are, were oyertaXed.
On Main street the water backed up

was flooded on the first floor and
water did quite a little damage in
the Widmann basement and the Rush
barber shop.
The total rainfall for May at Nit
chell was 4.49 inches. Since then
there have been four rains, of 2.40
inches. rs of an inch, IL of an

Reports from outside of Mitchell
show that the territory between kim

inches, while between kimball and
Kadoka there were lighter showers.
About two inches fell a. far north
as Aberdeen and west to Ipswich.

LAMBS TRIAL
OPENS TODAY
ANSWER CHARGE OF VIO-
LATING LAW.
From Mondays Daily

FROM Mondays DAILY
Mcintosh, S. D.-The trial of
Harry Lamb, former head of a McIn-
tosh bank, will start today, with
Judge j. II. Bottum presiding. Judge
Frank McNulty, attorney Tor Lamb,
sought a change of venue and also
asked that another judge than Judge
Gilman, of the circuit court for this
circuit, sit in the case. Judge Dillman
denied the motion for a change of
another judge, and Judge Bottom
Will accordingly hear the case.
Another important case in this
term of court was the one in which
Corson county sued the big cattle
firm of Field & Zim herman for $13,-
600 for back taxes. The defendants
claiming the assessment was not
valid, as part of the cattle were in
North Dakota. The attorney for the
cattle company offered to compro-
mise on d basis of $4,000. This was
refused by the county, which offered
to take $500 and that offer was
accepted by the company.
Two libel suits are also on the
calendar, in n of which Hoffman
VS.. the Morristown World, damages
of $25,000 is sought. The other case
is that of j. j. Holiday VS.. the indie
pendent Printing Company of Isabel.
The first suit grew out of an acrim-
onious primary campaign. and the
latter case is a result of a bitter
county seat fight between Isabel and
Timber Lake two years ago. The lat
ter s. will also be heard by Judge
Bottum, because Judge Dillman is
a resident of Dewey county, where
the trouble occurred.
Four former state sircuit judges
are attorneys in cases before the
court, they being Dick 1ianey of Nit
chell, who is also an eX-supreme
court judge Judge Cyrus Clay Car
penter of Mobridge, and Frank Nc
Nulty and l.. T. Boucher of Aber-
deem.

PRAISE GIVEN

The following appreciation of the
Mitchell Elks Quartette appeared in

THE happiest lot of the whole
gathering of Elks to blow into Lead
was the Mitchell aggregation, all
young fellows and about the mer-
riest crowd that the antelered herd
can boast of in the state. There's
simply none better for they've got
rings on their fingers and bells on
their toes, and music-well, you
have to hear their big double quar-
tette to appreciate the musical SUI
p~eriority of those boys voices, and
they have entertained SO much in
Rapid City and Deadwood that they
gave of their very hes; to the Lead
fellows and scored al immense hit,

PIERRE PAPER
TOASTS ELKS
CAPITAL JOURNAL CONDEMNS
ABERDEEN DELEGATION FOR
MAKING THE NIGHT HID.
E0US THERE.

Mitchell people who recall the
siren whistle of Aberdeen Elks blown
at night from their special train at
the state Elks' convention in Nit
chell last year, will be interested in
the following from the Pierre-Cap!-
~tal-JouILal:
Dakota Elks this week and a large
portion OF them passed through this
city last night on special trains,
while many others were passengers
on the regular midnight train. The
Sioux Falls bunch was the first to
arrive and We're a decidedly digni-
fed and gentlemanly bunch, who
with their ladies, were shown about
the city and through the state house
early in the evening. In the middle
of the night, however, everyone in
this city, including four very sick
people, were disturbed for about an
hour by a hideous whistle, which so
closely resembled the regular fire
alarm that the fire bells on two
hose houses were rung up by regular
fireman, thinking that there was a
regular alarm. This mechanical con-
trivance was carried by the Aber-
deem Elks' special and evidently
some one in that aggregation
thought that this kind of nuisance
would make the public consider them
of special Importance.
ut is expected frequently that men
going to attend grand lodges may
create some special disturbance, or
do things which will mark the per-
formers as persons of more than or
binary sojourners. Had the Aber-
deem bunch brought a band with
them or fired shots from q regular
battery of guns the noise would not
have been so noticeable, but to resort
to the kind of nuisance, that mark
ed their passage through the city last
night is something that is neither
gentlemanly, dignified or sensible and
is unfortunately a reflection not
only on their city, but the order they
represent.
ut may be that the Aberdeen lodge
contains a majority of members who
have neither good sense or respect
for other people, but we would not
care to make this charge against an
organization of that city. However,
that portion of their membership
that passed through here last night
are unfortunately guilty of an out
rage, especially on sick people that
civilized people will universally con.
denim. Instead of being members OF
the B. p. o. T.. The fellows who wer'
guilty of producing this to all effeuv-
fire alrm last night while rolling in
to Pierre and waiting to be taken on
the P. r. c. division. they should be
inmates of the state home for the
feeble mminded. The community
will have to consider that this was
an act of individuals instead of an
organized society, as only %irresponsi.
BILE drunks or brainless NUTS would
resort to this kind of nuisance"

barbecue style.
When all had reached the rendez-
vous Ben Wood mounted a table and
harransued the party, who crowded
about on the beauties OF Dark
Canyon. Among other things, Ben
informed his hearers that the Sioux
had held this spot in the Black Hills
sacred as being the home of the
Great Spirit and that in the parking
it was the custom for the great chiefs
of the Sioux nation to meet in coun-
ell. Pointing toward the summit of
Sentinel rock he said: "Around the
pinnacle of yonder rock they deliev-
ed there lowered spirits and in time
of war from its summit by day could
be seen the smoke arising and at
night the flames of signal fires"

OVER TWO AND A HALF AT
PIERRE DURING LAST WEEK

Pierre, S. D.-The rainfall at This
city for the first week in June is
scheduled by the government station
at 2.59 inches, which came in three
different storms, none of which were
especially severe. The rain of Sat
urday night was lip inches, and
was accompanied by severe lightning.
but no mishaps are recorded. The
rainfall of the spring has been suiii-
Gent to put the prairie in the best
of shape, and even the gray gumbo
bluffs on the west side of the river
show broad patches of green almost
to the waters edge. The rainfall
and hot weather keep vegetation
growing rapidly, and some corn fields
already show a growth of nearly a
foot.
