COMPANY E SUNDAY
EVENT WELL PATRONIZED-EN-
CELLENT EXHIBITION
GOOD BALL GAME.

1t is estimated that 1000 persons
witnessed the drill by Company J. on
the grounds of the ball park yester-
day afternoon. The net result of the
collection taken for the fund was
1914, making a total of 1923 as re-
corded for the fund of the headquar-
tiers part Of the company. What the
Howard detachment of the mpan
has is not known.
The company drill. put on by the
whole company assembled for the
first time, was without doubt the
principal attraction of the day. At
the opening of the company activities
there were 800 automobiles in the en-
closure. The grandstand was filled
and crowds stood about the grounds.
When the drills were completed.
many machines left, though most re
manned to see the ball game between
the company team and the Safety
First team.
Company E made a fine showing in
the drills in close formation. The
headquarters part of the company
We're without their arms, though the
Howard detachment had the full
equipment, and the company drills
were made without arms. 1t is to
be noted, too, that the new and beau
tiful company flag was displayed with
its guard or color squad in attend
ance. Various eyolutions were ear
ried out in the field in full company
force. Then there we're skirmishing
deploys made and the flag semaphore
drill was given. A squad raced in
getting into its clothes and equip
ment. first shedding their leggings,
then their shirts. hats. packs and
guns at 10 pace intervals. Then they
were given the word, and donned
their clothes and equipment as fast
as possible, Sergt. Pierce, of Howard
winning the race. The formal guard
mount was made, without a band
however, depriving this ceremony OF
much of it's beauty.
The ball game was a victory for
the soldiers by a score of 4 TO 3. With
the exception of the ninth inning the
game was fast and well played. Al
the beginning of the ninth inning the
score stood IL, and in the first hall
of the inning the Safety First team
went up in the air and presented the
soldiers with three runs. In the las
half Of the inning the soldier boys. no
to be outdone in making gifts, pre-
sented the Safety First team with
pair of runs, but they frightened III
after that, the game ending with tn,
score stated above. Letcher did thu
twirling for the Safetys First team
with Roche receiving. and Hanlel
was on the mound for Company Il
with Larson behind the bat.

To LAY ASPHALT
WILL SEE SOMETHING CONFLICT
ED BY WEEK END-START
TOMORROW.

The paving company announced
this morning that they intend to be
gin tomorrow morning to lay the
binder which goes on the cement
base, on preparation of the top sheet
of asphalt. The work will be com
menced at the east end of Second
street NE. They will lay this binder
for a day, then follow Wednesday
with the top coat of asphalt. When
this has been in place "a hours the
street will be opened for traffic.
They will follow the course taken by
the cement mixer, and complete the
street up to where that machine quit
work last week. it is thought. This
will open up much street for use
during the coming week.
The steam shovel is going right
down through the business section
south of Center street today, making
life miserable for the business men
along the way. The progress is slow
owing to the hardness of the ground.
Farther north along the street a
large gang is working at leveling and
surfacing the street, and the roller is
busy pressing it down to a solid
surface.

Renters PROFITS Big
MANY SOUTH DAKOTA TENANTS
ARE MAKING GOOD
MONEY.

Siox Falls. Aug. 27.-Many of the
men who rented farms in South Da-
kota this year have made big profits
from their seasons work. Henry
Schemp. a farmer living near Memo,
rented 60 acres from Fred Mutschel-
knaus and from the tract now has
threshed over 1000 bushels of
wheat. He paid a rental of only SO
per acre. Now the owner of the land
is striving to increase the rental
charge if Schemp wishes to rent the
same tract for next year.
The dissatisfaction of many of the
men who have farms to rem with the
returns from their land this season,
compared with what the renters are
receiving for crops raised on the
tracts, may result in a readjustment
of rental terms. In many cases it is
expected the owners of farm land
will endeavor to return to the old
terms. the owners TO receive one
third Of the crops raised on their
land and the renter the other two
thirds.

While working beneath the gravel
bins at the washing plant on Harth
avenue S last week. a stone fell from
the top, striking N. T. Dingman at
the front and top of the head. His
head was well protected by the thick
ness Of his cap, but the weight and
force of the stone forced his head
backward to the point of dislocation
of the spine, and he was confined to
his bed for a day, but is so far re
covered as to be about the streets
now.
The electric storm of Saturday
night left its marks in various places
in the county. George Harris, 10
miles south OF Madison. had two
stacks of barley and one Of hay burn
ed by being set Attire by lightning.
The house on the Il. X. Smith place
was struck. but the amount of dam
age done the building is not ascer-

we'll shaken up and frightened by the
shock, however. A hoghouse on the
b. Sitter place was also struck. The
