was made with the right-of-way
committee of Beach that such
right-of-way would be furnished
Their part of the contract beine
carried out. there is no question
about the terminus of the branch
line being at Beach, North Da
kota, and the construction beins

Tuesday Is Big
Day At Dickinson

S' '~' oSSOoy,
Oct. 20, has been fixed the day
of the biggest gala day ever
known in Dickinson or western
North Dakota. At Dickinson
next Tuesday there will be at
fractions which have never be-
fore appeared on the same dav
at the same place. namely, a base
ball game played by men who
are known as the worlds great
est experts at the game; an air
ship flight in a biplane guided by
a skilled airman; a carnival of
amusements of a character not
often available, and a grand ball
in the evening will be the close
ing feature of this day of days,
at Dickinson only, October 20.
The several committees of cit
izens arranging for the big feaur-
ct of the day have their plans well
arranged. and present indica-
tons are that everything will be
successfully performed as plan
ned. The baseball grounds are
in first class condition for the
game between the world famous
men, who play here under man
agement of Connie Mack, of the
Philadelphia Athletics who have
just concluded series of games
for the worlds championhip; and
Frank Bancroft. of the Cincinnati
Reds National League team.
Additional seating capacity is be.
ing provided for the immense
crowd expected to be there to see
the game.
The aviator, Dr.. Bell. has his
Curtis biplane tuned up for per-
formance in the air such as he is
noted for giving, and a provision
in his contract insures an exhibi-
ton which. weather permitting.
will be not only sensational but
of sufficient duration to please ev-
en- those who have previously had
an opportunity to witness an air.
hip flight. not many of whom are
residents in this section of the
United States. and those who fail
to come to Dickinson next Tues.
day may never again have the
chance now offered them.
The location of Dickinson j.

for reaching this city are better
than those enjoyed by othe,

Dickinson people recognized thi.
fact and arranged to have here

ton of attractions such as stated
have never before appeared or
the same day at the same place
vill surely be appreciated by the
people of the slope to the extern
that they will come to Dickinson
in great numbers that day. to b.
