Followers of basket ball are look
ing for an unusually spirited contest,
when the South Dakota State Normal
school and the Glendale, N. D., Nor
NAL school teams lock horns al 8
o'clock this evening in the State Nor

Both quintets are said to be in fine
working form, and it is not denied
that both aggregations possess excel
lent talent. Although the men from
the north lost last night to the Huron
college team at Huron. Coach Sweat
land, of the visitors, does not think
the score of 35 to 10 a true criterion
of his players capabilities, notwith-
standing that the Huron five are said
TO be about as fast a bunch of tossers
as there are in the middle west.
Coach Swaziland points out hat the
season is young, and states be is sat
isfied his men will give a very good
account of themselves before the
winters schedule is very far adj
vanced.
Coach Wagner, of the State Nor
NAL team, today had little TO say re-
garding his mems prospects, save tina.
the players are in good condition and
that he is hopeful that the locals will
wipe out last years defeat at Ellen
dale's hands.

players are here from Glendale.

YELLOW JOURNALS NOW
BUT NOT NECESSARILY YELLOW
JOURNALISM - COLOR OF
PAPER CHANGED BY WAR.

Although there is no evidence that
their demeanor has merited the re-
buff, it is believed that just AGA of
the daily, weekly and monthly pc
riodicals published in South Dakota,
during the next few weeks will have
become yellow journals in the literal
sense of the term. BY way of eX-
planning the percentage of publica-
tons in this state that will not be in
cluded in that ~unenviably hued, shud-
der imparting category, it is said that
there are printed in South Dakota
just AGA daily, weekly and monthly
journals.
And listen!
Even the staid, old New York Sun
is going to be yellow and the method
ical, un~sententious writer's on the
Boston Evening Transcript have bow
ed their heads In humble acceptance
of the impending calamitous trans
formation.
In defense of the publishers. it is
stated that they have not greeted the
onrushing, stigmatizing discoloration
of their sheets with unduly fervent
acclaim. In fact, there could be men
toned one newspaper which became
positively belligerent. when entering
into the subject.

1T must be admitted, however, that
conditions in Sioux City are far better
than they have been and are no worse
than the average city of this size.
Hard work and a careful surveil-
lance of the districts where vice is the
most prevalent are responsible for
better conditions. With the assist

the situation may be made more

DISMANTLING OPERA
EXPECT TO CLEAR SITE FOR
NEW THEATER IN MONTH
WILL HURRY WORK.

Progress is being made in the dis
mantling OF the interior Of the opera
house, preparatory to razing the
building TO make way for the erection
Of the proposed new, modern theater
to be built or the site. 1t is thought
by those. who have the work in charge
that the ground will be cleared in
about thirty days, and II was said to-
day by NJ. II. Colgrove. president Of
the opera house company, that the
construction of the new building will
be commenced as soon after that time
as possible.
Mr.. C~olgrove returned last night
from Minneapolis, where he went 10
transact business in connection with
the proposed theater. He said that ii
will probably be close onto a month
before the architects there who are
drawing the plans tor the playhouse
Will have the specifications ready.
He explained that once the specified
lions are completed there Will be no
unnecessary delay in letting the
contract.
The Minneapolis architects inform
ed Mr.. Colgrove that new methods OF
construction would make it possible
to start work on the building before
the frost is out of the ground. The
floor will probably be built before
any concrete is run. After the floor
is completed new underground heat
ing apparatus will be installed to
protect the fresh concrete.
Owing TO irregular train service
the result of recent cold and storms.
Mr.. C%olgrove spent about thirty-siN
hours in coming from Minneapolis tc
Madison. The trip. under ordinary
conditions, is made in from thirteen
TO sixteen hours. according TO thu
route taken.

RANKIN REFUSED
LECTURER HERE THIS WEEK DE.
CLINED OFFER TO DRINK
WITH GEN. LEW WALLACE.

Versatility and an altogether pleas
ing style OF delivery, backed up By
facts which seems TO be ever ut his
finger tips, are having much to do
with the success A. c. Rankin is
he is giving nightly this week in the
First Baptist church.
Mr.. Rankin has been in temperance
work for thirty years and is still n
man of sunshine. His lectures are
particularly free from personality or
abuse. The biggest brewer in the
country might sit and listen TO him
without feeling any personal insult,
while at the same time he would feel
that this man was doing much 10
cause his business TO slip away from
him.
Last evening Mr.. Rankin spoke on
the subject OF The Weak Brother"
He showed how that out of 5000, 600
men working in factories in this
country there are a great many weak
brothers who gradually lose out in
the race of life. Their families suf-
fer and they at last are laid in a
drunkard's grave. SO il is in profess
sional life and eve the sacred call
ing of the ministry of the church has
not escaped. He stated that this Of
tentimes through mistakes of
the head and not of the heart.
Men are honest in their convic-
tions, thinking that they can take a
little or let 1t alone until it comes TO
the place when they cannot let il
alone. For their sakes those who are
strong should abstain"
Mr.. Rankin spoke of the time when
he campaigned in Ohio for Blaine for
president, at a time when Gen. Lew
Wallace and Gen. Paul Van Devert
were speakers on the same platform.
After the evening program was over
he was urged, with others, to drink,
but he refused, because he had signed
the temperance pledge. and also be
cause he knew that drink had
brought his w father to ruin, and
that it had worked the loss of his
parents accumulated wealth.
In speaking of the necessity for de.
cision. he told of a young man who
was urged by his hostess TO drink and
on refusal his betrothed came to him
with the engagement ring in one
hand and the glass in the other anC
asked him to choose. He chose the
ring and broke the engagement. Ht
became a very prosperous business
man, while she married a man OF hel
choice who drank and in time founC
herself the wife of a drunkard anC
the mother of a drunkard's family.
AT the close of the meeting fifty
three signed the pledge which com
mits to work for prohibition. 1t wa!
noticeable that a large proportion
were young men. The meetings will
continue each evening except Satur
day in the Baptist church, with an
other mass meeting on Sunday even
ing in the Methodist church. Mr.
Rankin will also speak each evening
He is here under the auspices 0
the A~ntisaloon league.
