TEACHERS
INSTITUTE
Will Be Held in Siisseton
June 10Th to June Goth.

The Roberts County Normal
Institute will be held in Sisseton
from June Goth to June Both
1916. Arrangements have been
completed for the institute and
every thing is in readiness to
make every session OF the 1916
meeting the best ever. Professor
A. 81. Seymour of the Northern
Normal and Industrial School at
Aberdeen has been secured to
conduct the institute. His varied
experiences in many lines of
school work and administration
peculiarly fits him for the place.
For many years he was superin-
tendent of the city schools of
Volga later being elected as
county superintendent for four
years and in the fall of 1914 he
entered the Normal School as an
instructor in Geography and
Elementary Science.
Other members of the faculty
are Miss Lida Williams also of
the Normal of Aberdeen, who
will have charge of the Primary
Methods, Music and Drawing.
Miss Williams comes highly re-
commended and has been very
successful in her teaching ex-
perience.
Mr.. H. G. Souder, county su-
perintendent OF Grant County
will have the work in Reading,
Grammar and Literature. MIR.
Souder has made "a special study
Of these subjects and his classes
will be we'll worth attending.
Frank r. McKenna will have
the work in Civics. Mr.. Nc
kenna was for a number of years
a successful school teacher and
is now a practicing attorney in
Sisseton. He will be able to give
the teachers the benefits of his
experience both as teacher and
as an attorney in the classes in
Civics.
A new feature of the institute
will be practical lectures by the
medical men of the city and sur
rounding towns upon the very
Important subjects of hygiene
and sanitation. These lectures
should prove very beneficial and
instructive coming from these
men who make a study of this
line of work.
Season tickets for the chautau.
qua may be purchased by the
teachers at reduced rates and no
doubt every teacher in the insti-
tute will take advantage of this
splendid offer.
Tribune-While coming from
Beardsley Tuesday night, Will.
lie Dougherty who was driving a
team of horses, was run into by an
automobile and one of the horses
killed. 1t is claimed the driver of
the car who belongs in Graceville,
was running at great speed and
without lights of any kind. Willie
was bruised up pretty badly, a
wheel taken off the buggy and one
horse killed which belonged to
Frank Dougherly. If the claims
made are found to be true it was
nothing less than criminal neglect.
to be running at night without
lights and to say the least will
probably prove to be an expensive
Joy ride.
The Woodmen initiated three
new members last Tuesday
night. They were, Glenn Hud.
son, Harry Murphy and Bill
johnson. There was something
doing alright and after refresh
ments were served, it being a
late hour they departed for their
respective homes.
Pat Reardon of Claire CITY
was a business caller here on
Tuesday of this week.

was spread over our city of the
sudden death of Ethel Johanna,
the little daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. O. E. Thorsgaard.
The little one was taken with
convulsions at the Commence
ment Exercises at the Lutheran
Church Thursday evening about
nine O'Clock and was taken home
where her parents rushed her
Immediately to Waubay to re-
ceive medical aid. Though ev-
cry thing was done that kind and
loving hands could do, the little
one passed away at midnight.
The passing away of little
Ethel leaves a spot in the home
vacant only for the memory of
her brightness that she brought
to her parents and sisters, be-
sides always being pleasant to
her many friends that she met
every day.
Ethel Johanna Thorsgaard was
born at Wantoma, Wisconsin
on June Goth, 1912, and died at
the Chapman hospital in Wau-
bay. May 25, 1916, at the age of
three years, II months and 5
days.
The funeral was held from the
Lutheran Church, Saturday
afternoon and Rev. Westberg of
Summit preached the funeral
sermon and the remains laid to
rest in the Ortley Cemetery. A
large crowd of friends showed
their sympathy to the bereaved
relatives in attending the funeral
and following the body to it's last
resting place. The Lodges and
other organizations and friends
gave large tributes of flowers.
We extend the parents, sisters
and other relatives our sincere
sympathy in this their sad hour.

FIRE DESTROYS OFFICE:
BELIEVED INCENDIARY

Fire believed to have been of incen-
diary origin destroyed the office build

Miller G. Co, Bethesda, early this morn

fire engine house responded to a tele-
phone summons, but the building was
practically destroyed before the fire.
men were able to reach the fire.
The fire was discovered shortly after
1 o'clock this morning, when the in
terror of the office was found to be
ablaze. When Mr.. Miller reached the
yards he found the office had been
broken into.
An iron safe used for storing the
company's books, papers, etc, was
open and its contents, scattered over
the floor, had been reduced to ashes
The steel safe used for money was still
closed, however. though efforts appar-
emily had been made to open it.
A bunch of oil-soaked waste or
oakum was found in the office, where
it is believed it was used by the bur-
glars in starting the fire which it was
hoped would cover the traces of their
work
brick wall forming part of the
office building, it was stated, kept the
flames from spreading to the coal tip
pies and storage bins, where several
freight cars stood and where several
thousand tons of coal was stored.

COTTON MARKETS.

points net higher during the early
trading, with December touching 1928.
or within a point of the recent high
record, while January advanced to
1713 The opening advance here was
hardly a fun response to firm cables
owing probably to feeling that high
er marine war risks justified wider diff
ferences. but some of yesterdays sell
ers seemed to be replacing their con-
tracts on less apprehcnsive view Of
the shipping situation.
There was also a renewal of trade
buying and the market was fairly ac-
tive during the early session. with the
firmness of December encouraging
some fresh buying of later deliveries
Futures opened steady; October. 1880;
December. 17.15: January. l1.10: March.
1925; May. 1877; July. 17.45.
The early advance carried october
contra cts up to II cents for the first
time this season. while December sold
at 1929, or even with the high level
of Saturday, and January at Ills or
about Is to % points net higher. Some
of yesterdays buyers seemed to be sell-
ing on this advance. however, while
there was n little more hedge selling
from southern sources and the market
became rather unsettled late in the
morning. with prices easing off or
10 points from the best.

CHICAGO, October 10.-Higher cable
quotations and the continuance Of the
drought in Argentina had a bullish ef-
was lessened and traders appeared to
be recovering from the shock of the
first submarine activity on this side OF
the Atlantic. The fact that the entire
domestic spring wheat crop is only g.
100000 bushels more than North Da-
kota alone raised last year tended also
to encourage buyers.
Opening prices, which ranged from
IS to 1Ac higher. with December at
15S to 1885, and May at 1.571s to
1.57k, were followed by a moderate
reaction, but then fresh advance.
Corn Prices Harden.
Corn hardened with wheat. For the
most part however, demand was of a
scattered sort. After opening Nc off
to a like advance, the market scored
slight gains all around.
Oats derived strength from other
cereals, as in the case of corn, though
trade failed to broaden out.
Despite weakness in hogs provisions

obtaining future additions was causing
serious concern led to material ad-
vance in wheat prices here. 1t was an

has decided to take over the entire
business of importing wheat for the
United Kingdom. The close was nerv-
Gus, B to 2as net higher. with Decem-

WALL STREET MARKET
SCORES GOOD GAINS
Moderate Activity With Less Excite

Professional Traders.
Early Advances Not Materially I'M
proved-Industrial and Rails
Share in Betterment.

NEW YORK, October 10.-The imme-
diate opening was attended with con-
siderable irregularity, but by none OF
the wildly exciting scenes of yesterday.
The market was full of orders, and
many advances We're quickly scored in
both the industrals and the rails. fol-
lowed by slightly higher prices again
before the end of the first half hour,
and then by a reaction on profit-taking,
many spectators taking fractions and
points of profits.
While there was large trading in the
next two hours, the price changes, so
far as the industrials were concerned.
were not of especial Importance, the
list advancing and retreating by frac-
tions.
In the rails there was better strength.
1t was generally realized that the ac-
tivities of the submarine or sub
marines off the north Atlantic coast
would not be a matter of serious delay
to shipping. and that there would be
but temporary accumulation of
freight at stations before the full re-
sumption of traffic.
\ Sales Indicate Good Activity.
The sales during the first two hours
of the session were 776,000 shares, in
dicating good activity.
Advances at the top of the morning
session amounted to 5 points on Beet
Sugar, about the best gain of the
period: point on Car Foundry, Loco
motive, Anaconda, American Can, Colo
rado Fuel. Inspiration Copper, Indus
trial Alcohol and Westinghouse.
Gains of l to points were made on
Steel common, which opened at 112A
and sold to 113, going off in the second
hour OF the afternoon to 1921 again:
in Studebaker and Republic Iron and
Steel.
Gas shares were very firm.
Hide and Leather preferred made an
advance from close at 81 yesterday
to "A. or points. and eased back to

Action in the Rails.
The favorite shares in the rail group
were Union Pacific, which advanced to
