WINS CONTEST
Woman Homesteader Awarded Land
After Long Fight.

Okaton, May 14.-After litigation
extending over a period of six years,
Mrs. Nellie Brush, a former woman
homesteader of western South Da-
kota, has been declared the rightful
owner of a valuable farm of 100
acres, situated northwest of Okaton.
The husband of the woman originally
took the land as a homestead, and
after a residence of about six months
upon it he died. His widow contin-
ued residence on the land and in due
time submitted final proof prelimi-
nary to obtaining a title from the
government. But at the last mo-
ment another person who wanted the
farm fiied a protest to the final proof.
The final proof of Mrs. Brush was ap-
proved by the officers of the district
United States land office, but was
held up by the commissioners of the
general land Office at Washington.
The Ease finally found its way to the
secretary of the interior, who now
has decided in favor of Mrs. Brush,
holding that the testimony offered in
support of the protest to her final

SUMMER RESORT
PLEASURES AT LAKE MADISON
PLANS TO ESTABLISH SUN
DAY EXCURSION TRAINS.

A movement is on foot in Sioux
Falls to establish a series of Sunday
excursions from that city to Lake
Madison. The matter is being taken
up with the commercial club and of
ficials of the Milwaukee railway COM
pany. The proposition has been
brought to the attention of Sec'y
Martin of the Madison Commercial
club, and he is discussing it among
citizens with a view of providing
similar conveniences for Madison
people. 1t is set forth that there are
many people in Madison confined
closely to their employment during
the week who would enjoy a Sunday
outing at the lake If they could be
provided with convenient transporta-
ton facilities. The distance from
the city is not great, but people of
this city who do not keep convey
ances are debarred from its pleas
ures about the same as if the lake
was an hundred miles away. If sur
rounding towns are seeking facilities
for visiting the lake ii would seem
that Madison should also look out
for conveniences.
Lake Madison is destined to be-
come the great summer resort of
southeastern South Dakota, and even
now hundreds of people visit the lake
every day and on Sunday the crowds
will reach into the thousands If prop
er transportation facilities are estab-
lished. Last Sunday there were more
than a thousand people on the shores
of the lake fishing and enjoying fam.
lily picnic dinners. Never in the his.
tory of the lake since the arrival oil
the white man has fishing been as
good as this year. 1t is no trick al
all to catch a string of fifty of the
finest perch and black bass and the
homely, but toothsome, bullhead are
plentiful.
OF course the chautauqua assembly
will soon open at the lake with thu
usual six or eight trains daily from
the city to the lake, furnishing ample
transportation facilities for the tive
or three weeks the assembly is il
session. But there seems to be
growing demand for facilities 70.
people to visit the lake every da!
during the summe months. Sec!
Martin plans to bring the matter be
fore the Commercial club, and in con
junction with Sioux Falls solicit tn,
Milwaukee company to provide thu
necessary excursion trains.

The teams are unusually large
this year on account of new material
that is being tried out everywhere for
possibilities for the large national
and even the international meets.
Martin Delaney, director of the Chi
cago Athletic club, and ms of the
coaches of the American Olympic
team which competed and won the
international Olympic meet at Stock
holm, Sweden, in 1912, has written
to Manager Hocfstetler, stating that
he would be in Huron at the time OF
the meet. He is trying to secure a
line on the material of the northwest
and the victories of Hamline univer-
sity over Minnesota university and
Yankton college at the Drake univer-
sity relay would indicate that the
best athletes of the west are in the
Minnesota-Dakota conference.
