Forty Years of Chautauqua

This year is the 10th anniversary
of the Mother Chautauqua.' at
Chautauqua. New York, where and
when the original one was started.
Today there are 5000 in this coun-
try.
The second annual Hand County
Chautauqua. now in session at the
court yard park, has some of the
best talent known to the chautauuua
platform.
Col. g. w. Balm and l.. j.. Beau
champ r among the very best.
They have lectured sixteen and eight
times respectively to great audi
ences at Chautauqua, New York.
The same recommendation of high
standard comes to us for the Chica-
go Male Qu%artette and the Apollo
| Concert Co. The citizens of Hand
county are promised a treat this
week.
AS proof of the quality Of the at
fractions offered here it may be
noted that Rev. Spurgen and Judge
Saddler, of last years Hand county
program. are this year engaged for
Huron. Madison. Brookings and sew
eral larger cities.
The best and cheapest way to at
tend the chautauqua is to buy sea-
son tickets, now on sale at all drug
stores in the city.

A Dry Town

Tuesday night at 8 O'Clock Miller's
licensed saloons went out of exist
ence. This was by reason of a &C
majority dry vote at the recent city
election. Those who favor the saloon
say that 1t is only wave of senti-
ment which will disappear after a
time when the city will again vote
wet. Those who oppose the saloon
consider that it will be a long time
before license ear carry in Miller.
Discussed from a disinterested
stand point, as ore would any other
question, the latter view appears
the most log zeal. A dry" town
may not be as attractive to new wet
voters as it will be to new dry voters.
And if women suffrage prevails in
this state, there will be no saloons
IN the state, with the possible ex-
ception of one or two of the largest
cities Attempting merely to express
an intelligent opinion, based upon
existing facts, it would appear that
Miller has bid good by to the licensed
saloon.

Miller g Han rOId 9

The team of huskles from the
short grass country west came down
to Miller Sunday and took out their
revenge on the locals for a former
trimming. 1t was rather a wild and
loose game, with a number of clever
individual plays scattered through
the game. Harold was braced up
by two or there new pla, ers, and
displayed considerable ginger. as
veil as good management. The
large audience present thought the
locals lost by loose infield work.
But that is the fortune of the game,
and each defeat as we'll as victory
should contain its lesson to the team.
The next game on home grounds
will be July 4th between Rec Heights
and Miller. They are very evenly
matched.
