There were perhaps a hundred

the party was a Catholic chaplain of
the army. He engaged in conversation
"a priest who had been in the service
of the cathedral at Lourdes nineteen
years, kindly soul with the light OF
God upon his face and who related to
our chaplain much of the history Of
the cathedral and many interesting
facts in connection with 1t. He In
turn interpreted the priests story to
us as I have told 1t here.
The priest said that he had seen
many impressive ceremonies perform
ed in the cathedral, he had seen some
of the most eminent men Of the world
who had come there to visit 1t. But
the most inspiring scene have ever
witnessed" he told the chaplain, was
a week or ten days before the visit Of
you boys here when more than 5000
American soldiers of Roman Catholic
faith, each carrying a lighted candle in
accordance with Catholic custom,
passed through the cathedral and knelt
before the shrine Of the Christ and
the virgin his mother, each man a
tough soldier, veteran of many a bat
tie and many a skirmish-3,000 men
kneeling in deep reverance before the
image of the Christ"
The Catholic members Of my own
party knelt before the various shrines
and crossed themselves and perform
ed other ceremonies as do all good
Roman Catholics. We who were
Protestants merely stood in respectful
and reverent silence. We knew moth
ing else to do.
But the visit to the beautiful cathed-
raj impressed me very much. l shall
not soon forget the picture Of that
sweet faced old Roman Catholic priest
and what seemed to me the weird
strangeness and grave solemnity Of
it all.

Saint Peters Foot.
BY Lewis M. Grist.

SAINT PETERS ROOT.
At the entrance to the cathedral
there is a bronze statue Of Saint Peter
He is seated, his feet clad in the
sandals that were worn in the time o1
Christ. One foot stands out promin-
emily above the other. The statue Is
regarded as a sacred and holy thing
by Catholics, and it Is said that every
Catholic who has visited that famous
cathedral since its erection has kissed
his foot. Thousands. perhaps millions
of kisses have been planted there be-
cause the foot is growing much worn
as a result thereof.
Hard by the cathedral Is a pool, the
waters Of which are said by the Cath
olics to be holy and possessed Of heal
ing qualities. Those who are crippled
or those who are suffering physical
ailment and who believe In the virtues
of the pool will be cured Of his all
ments, it is claimed and In proof oi
the contention there are suspended
near the pool hundreds OF pairs OF
crutches said to have been left there
by cripples who having been cured OF
their ills, had need of the crutches nc
more.
Built by Woman.
It is related that the Cathedral was
built through the efforts of woman
noted saint whose name l have
forgotten but whose shrine / remem-
ber seeing in the cathedral. This
woman, so the story goes, had won
derful vision and it was told to her
that she should build a cathedral In
this village of Lourdes hard by this
sacred pool, and the cathedral stands
today a monument to God and this
sanity woman whose memory the
people bless.
A part Of the cathedral and source
of wonder are number Of statues OF
the Twelve Apostles and other saints
placed at various intervals along a sort
Of winding trail leading into the
Pyra nees. The story Of the crucifixion
of Christ Is told in statuary along the
way. There is statue illustrating his
trial by Pontius PLATE; his journey to
Calvary and finally his cruciixion up
on the cross and his being laid away

CITY EMPLOYEE QUITS

Saturday, when asked by the con-
tractors, O'Neil G. Preston, to cut
some electric wires so that they could
get the big ditching machine away
from where they had been working
and take it to the railroad preparatory
to loading it for moving out of town
A. w. Morton, city superintendent, re-
fused to cut the wires or allow them
to be cut. The matter was taken to
the mayor by the contractors and the
city engineer. Mr.. Leighty went to
the power house and asked Mr.. Morton
to attend to this matter at once, as
the contractors had finished their
ditching and yer entitled to be al
lowed to leave the city. Mr.. Morton
said ne would quit the job before he
would do as requested, and the mayor
told him that the wires had to be
cut and that as he would not obey
orders he could consider that he was
u of a job. The mayor has placed
the car Of the power house and the
heating and water in charge Of e. w.
Hyde, n of the engineers at the
plant, and has secured James M. Milne
to look after the wiring and lighting
system. Mr.. Morton advertises in this
weeks Register as being prepared to
do wiring and other electrical work,
which indicates that he intends to en-
gage in the business on his own hook.
Mr.. Milne was a former employee OF
the city in the power and light plant
and is a qualified electrician. He
lately returned from service in the
army and was married a few weeks
ago to Miss Claire Wiley of this city.

at both services last Sunday. He is
a pleasant appearing gentleman Of
ready address and a very earnest de-

marks dropped by those who formed
the congregation, 1t is very evident
that the reverend gentleman made an
exceedingly good impression on his
members and hearers. The family are
getting settled this week in the a

date get better acquainted with the
people Of the congregation and city.

DUCK FEED FOR SINGERS

Monday evening was the time when
the Viking Choir saw fit to relax from
the dignity of a musical bearing and
come down to the enjoyment of the
feasting of the inner man. They as.
sembled at the farm home Of one of
their number, Robert Knutson, down
near the river and partook Of a most
excellent duck dinner. The report is
that some Of the members of the choir
furnished the material for the prin.
cipal part of the feast, in order to show
that they were mighty hunters" and
could do ,other things beside singing.
That they all had a good time, goes
without saying. And that they did
full justice to the splendid men need
never be doubted by anyone who
knows the fine bunch of men who con
pose this we'll known and highly ap.
~preciated musical organization. The
city will expect an added strength and
finish to their work after this sub.
stantial reinforcement Of their ply.
steal strength. Their voices need
nothing to add to the beauty of their
singing.

WHAT NORWAY DID

Il. It. Odegard has kindHy : e4dlt
to this Office a copy Of the proceedings
of the national assembly Of Norway
on the question of submitting their
idea of a league of nations. to the
council at Paris. 1t is a smaller docu-
ment than the mt adopted, but fol-
lows very largely the same line Of
ideas, as to results to be obtained.
The commission who drew It was
headed by the great explorer Nansen
and the secretary of the commission
was a nephew of Mr.. Odegard, Thor
Odegard, whose father at one time
lived in Fargo, N. D. The family re
turned to Norway many years ago
and this son has become a prominent
publicist of that country. 1t is very
interesting to know that working in
as they must have done,
the lawmakers of the northern coun-
try had much the same ideas as did
the representatives of the United
United States in the deliberations on
this question in Paris.

FOOTBALL DATES

Tomorrow the High school team
goes to Madison to play the second
game of their schedule. They will
have a sitter proposition to meet than
they did last Saturday, but sustained
by a fair degree of confidence and the
good coaching of Wicks, they are bound
to give a good account of themselves
and bring home the bacon, even If
they don't get it rind and all. Then
or Saturday on the home field the
State Callege warriors will meet the
Methodists of Dakota Wesleyan at
Mitchell. This team won by a small
score from the Baptist College at
Sioux Falls, a thing that does not
make them seem very formidable.
But you can never tell, and they may
turn out to be a fierce bunch of fight
ers. There is no doubt but what they
will make it a real game, as they
have a good line, good offensive and
a coach who is an old head at the
game. The pep of State is bound, how
ever, to make itself felt from the very
start and Brookings will go to the
game expecting to see the visitors
gracefully and generously beaten.

ANOTHER GRADE RECORD

At the George Dybdahl sale held on
October 9Th, at which Col. S. j. Ru-
dolph, was the auctioneer, another rec
ord we believe, has been made in the
sale of grade cattle. Nine grade Short
horns were sold, all being two year.
olds, except two and the nine brought
the aggregate price Of 1907. 90. Three
went for less than one hundred dol
lars, the lowest being $1,000. while
the other six brought over that sum,
the highest going for $121.00. Three
Of them were steers and brought one
hundred dollars each. A five-year-old
cow sold for $118.0O and a 7-year-old
cow for $114.00. The one bringing
the highest price was a 2~-year-old
heifer. Mr.. Dybdahl's sale was very
satisfactory in every way and for him
1t was an anniversary, as it was held
on his fiftieth birthday. All Of the
property sold represented about thirty
years Of hard labor, and meant for
him the elimination Of a life well
spent in agricultural pursuits.
