went fishing spent worried evening.
They didn't show up before the storm,

midnight.

that those going west remain in Bis

Local People Drive to Bis
marck Through Storm

About 25 Bismarck and Burleigh
county people who attended the New
Salem Holstein circuit annual picnic
and tour yesterday, can testify that
it rained west of the river.
P. ]. Meyer, A. F.. Bradley and H.
S. Dobler came through from New
Salem after the rain. At places, Mr.
Meyer said, he could determine he
was on the road only by the fence
posts, and the hill by the Mandan
courthouse resembled rushing
mountain creek. The party passed
20 cars in the ditch between Man
dan and New Salem.
There was no hail west of Mandan.
The bad condition of the roads the
two or three days previous had cut
down the attendance at New Salem,
but a successful Holstein circuit
picnic was held nevertheless.
