On Saturday afternoon the heavy
*. M. G. A. football team lined UP
against the Normal boys in one of the
most bitterly contested games seen
here for long time. The Normal
was outweighed both on the line and
in the backfield, but nevertheless it
held the Y. scoreless until within four
minutes of time in the last quarter.
The Y. frequently found no difficulty
in getting through it's opponents line
until it got within striking distance
of the goal, but there the Normal held

in the opening period. The Y. soon
lost the ball. The playing was mostly

The teams see-sawed from one end Of
the field to the other in the second
period, but while Dowden's boys got
rear their opponents goal line they
could not get across. The half ended
with the ball in midfield.
In the second hair White of the Y
kicked off to Poulson. During this
quarter the association team made
several long gains on end runs, DOW
den, White and Stewart carrying the
ball. The Purple and White, how
ever, held their opponents safe, the
period ending with the ball in the
Normals possession On the Y. M. c..
AS 45-yard line. At the opening Of
| the last quarter of the game the Y,
determined to score on their persist
ent, enemy, started things with a rush.
End runs and line plunges followed
one another with swiftness, and the
ball finally was placed on the Nor
mails 5-yard line. But from there the
association could progress no further.
The team was pushed back to mid
field to start its work over again. A
25-yard run by Dowden and several
shorter gains took the oval to the
schools 5-yard line once more, and
with four minutes to play left, Ltew,

the game. White kicked goal from

ball. Poulson made five yards on an

purple and white began to think that
they had a chance. The Normal punt

chance was gone. The game ended
with the score z to 0 in favor of the

Another Rumor

1t is rumored in eastern circles that
there is railroad to be built from the
town of Platte, South Dakota, and
extended from there west, From
Platte the road is to touch the towns
of Day, Dixon, Magnet, Witten, Wood
and to connect with the c. M~& St.
P. railway at some point north of the
River, probably Kadoka. If this so,
which some seem to believe, 1t will
give that line IN immense advantage
over the present lines 'ir that territory
it being the most direct line to Sioux
City, to the Black Hills, and will
touch lot of territory now without
road. We also understand that the
bridge at chamberlain has been con-
demmed and will have to be rebuilt.
1t may be that this bridge will not be
rebuilt, and that tins new one will re
place it.

64OAer Homesteads in South Dakot

64O Acre Homesteads in Sonth Dakota
A bill was.recently introduced in the
National congress providing for $40
acre homesteads in parts this state,
and as this may prove of interest to
some Of our readers we reprint the fol
lowing special, under a Washington
date line:
Washington, d. c., March 15.-
Special: Harry L. Candy, receiver Of
the land Office at Rapid City, S. D.,
is in Washington and yesterday made
to the~house public lands committee
a statement in support of the propos-
ed $40 acre stock raising homestead,
applicable only to lands suitable for
grazing. Mr.. Candy in his statement
before the committee estimated that
approximately 100000 acres in the
Rapid City land district would be
Subject to entry as stockraising home
steads; that there would be 100000
acres In the Belle Frouche district
and also quite an acreage in the Greg
ory, PieRre and Lennon districts.
Mr.. Candy filed with the commit
tee scores Of letters and petitions
from western South Dakota citizens
and resolutions from various CONNER
cial clubs of cities IN that part Of the
state, asking for the passage Of the
measure which would provide for
such a homestead. Today Mr.. Candy
received by special delivery some fine
Photographic views of irrigated tract
taken in the so-called, desert land sec
tion OF South Dakota, which show
growing fields of alfalfa, and these
will be filed with the committee to.
morrow.
Inasmuch as a number of western
senator's and Representatives are anx.
ious for this legislation to be enact
ed, there is probability that the
,pending bill will be passed at thii
session of congress.

Good Church Attendance Sunday.

Good Church Attendance Sunday.
Rev. Keepers preached two good
sermons at the shcool house in this
city both morning and evening, last
Sunday, and practically every seat
was filled at each of these services
Rev. Keepers is very able man and
we have heard many express them
selves as being glad that they atten-
ded the services last Sunday. The
minister was agreeably surprised to
be greeted by two such good audienc-
es In Wood ard said he hoped the
church-going spirit would continue,
and that Wood might become known
as place where people took great in
terest in church work. An hour or
two spent in going to church twice
month is time well spent and will
eventually return good dividend to
the community at large and the indi-
vidual in particular. At the evening
service, Mrs. Glidden, a lady mission
aIy, was present and sang a couple of
solos that were much appreciated.
Rev. Keepers will preach here again
at the school house, Sunday, March
20, a. l1:00 a. m. and 500 pm. You
try and attend at least oae of these
services, and both if possible.
