College of Mitchell.

Mitchell, June 25.-Dr. Thomas
Nicholson, president of Dakota Yves
.leyan from 1903 TO 1908, has accept
ed the presidency of Cornell college
at Mt. Vernon, Ia, to succeed DR..
James E. Harlan, the retiring execu-
tive. The news of the selection of
DIR. Nicholson will be received with
considerable interest in Mitchell,
where his executive ability and force
full character is so well known.
DR.. Nicholson is well known
throughout the entire country. He
was for nine years professor of phil
osophy at Cornell, and later presi-
dent of Dakota Wesleyan university.
From the latter position he was call
ed to the secretaryship of the board

BABY BEEF
South Dakotan Markets Large Bunch
In Sioux City.

Sioux City, June 25.-"Using en-
silage, shelled corn, alfalfa, and a lit
tie oil meal, / have brought these cat
tie from calf weights of 200 to 250
pounds six months ago to an average
of 628 pounds which they weighed
here on the market today" stated
VIM. Moore, who was in from Mitch
ell, S. d., with a string of 81 steers
and heifers that sold at the salts
factory price of $3.50. These baby
beef cattle are very popular with
buyers at present and prices are fully
up to and above prices on heavier
beef cattle.
During the past six months, Mr..
Moore has handled some 1900 OF
these calves, which he purchased out
near Trinidad, Colo, and across the
border in New Mexico. He has fed a
string of them on his rancho near
Mitchell. He also shipped one con-
signment to Indiana. A part of the
herd was sold at auction this spring
and the sale was made in record
time, 725 head going under the ham
mer in exactly one hour and fifteen
minutes. The price ranged between
$50 and $3.50 per head.
Mr.. Moore was well satisfied with
his sale here this morning and will
have some more cattle on the market
in the near future.

Break Into FauIkton Postoffice, But
Secure Nothing.

Faulkton, June 25.-The p~ostoffice
at this place was entered by burglars
who appear to have opened the front
door by means of a skeleton key. BY
means of a Ratchet and heavy ham
mer secured from the Northwestern
tool house, they broke off the combi-
nation lock from the door of the
safe, but disturbed nothing else in
the office. Postmaster Griffee found
both the front and back doors to the
room open when he arrived TO open
up the office about Z o'clock. He
found the safe locked and could not
tell whether the contents of the safe
had been disturbed until about noon,
when, with the assistance of j. p.
Turner, former postmaster, the door
to the safe was finally opened. The
contents of the safe were found in
tact, and it is evident that the burg
lar was frightened away before he
gained access to it. The work was
rather clumsily done and the eulprit
was undoubtedly a novice.
