George C. Spears of Minnea

of the northwest, was in the
city last Friday. He intended
to give an hour and a half ex
hibition of fancy shots but
could not make satisfactory ar
rangements with the local bil
liard hall managers. Those
interested in this game were
greatly disappointed in not be
ing able to see him play. He
went from here to Lidgerwood
where he will give one of his
famous exhibitions.
Miss Annie A. Robbins, Na

evening, September 4th, at 8
o'clock. Miss Robbins comes
highly recommended as a
public speaker and one familiar
with temperance and hospital
work, not only in the army but
throughout the United States.
All are cordially invited to this
service. Good music.
It seems that after accom
panying August Backlund from
here to the Sewedish Hospital
at Minneapolis, Dr. Morrill
went on to Chicago on private
business, and he was induced
to remain in that city for the
practice of his profession. By
those competent to judge, it is
conceded that Dr. Morrill is
away up in his profession.
While here he was urged by
Chicago parties to locate in
that city. His remarkable suc
cess with patients in North Da
kota shows that the state has
lost one of its best physicians,
and western friends have no
doubt of his success in the
great inland city.—Sargent
County Independent.
The visit of Capt. A. C. Ton
ner last Sunday, in quest of a
site for the Indian school was
very unsatisfactory. The own
ers of the only available lands
either refusing to sell at all or
had advanced the price so
much that the commissioner
couldn't even consider it. Land
that was formerly held at $50
or $60 could not be touched for
less than $100 per acre and the
government will not pay more
for a site than what the land is
worth. Senator jMcCumber,
who was instrumenal in get
ting the appropriation from the
government, was very much
discouraged and intimates that
if a suitable site cannot be
found in Wahpeton that he
would look elsewhere.
A POWER FOR GOOD.
The pills that are potent in
their action and pleasant in ef
fect are DeWitt's Little Early
Risers. W. S. Philpot of Al
bany, Ga., says: "During a bili
ous attack I took one. Small
as it was it did me more good
than calomel, blue mass or any
other pill I ever took and at the
same time the effect was pleas
ant. Little Early Risers are
certainly an ideal pill." Sold

PUBLIC SCHOOL
Opens Monday, Sept. 5th, With a
Full Corps of Efficient
Teachers.
All Pupils Should be Present the
First Day.
The public schools will open
on next Monday, Sept. 5th. All
pupils who are to enter the
school for the first time or come
from other schools should en
roll with the superintendent at
the office in the old building.

started is not repeated until
the opening of the second half
of the school year.
The second grade has been
divided and a teacher employed
for the new division. To ac
commodate this grade several
of the grades have been remov
ed to other rooms in the old
building, but the pupils will
soon find themselves at home
in their new location.
The corps of teachers as en
gaged for the coming year is as
follows:
Superintendent—R. M. Black.
Principal—Martha Fulton.
Asst. in High School—T. L.
Wanner.

First Grade—Bertha Bauer,
Jennie Crosby.
A LIVELY TIME IN BRECK.
There was a lively time in
Frank Kubela's saloon last Sun
day evening which ended quite
seriously for two of the partici
pants. Jim Stuart, who is em
ployed by E. A. Anderson on
his ice wagon was shaking dice
for the drinks with a darky by
the name of Joe Crawford when
a dispute arose over the game.
Seemingly without warning
the darky struck Stuart in the
face with a glass. Stuart made
for the darky but was restrain-*
ed by a bystander. The darky
taking advantage of the inter
ference made several attempts
to cut his victim with a knife
which, however only went thru
Stuart's clothes. Several by
standers made for the coon and
the coon made for the door but
one of the Indian ball players
entering the door at the time
herd the cry "stop him" and
was equal to the occasion,
planting a blow in the darky'a
face which sent him to the floor.
The blow vjras given with such
force that it broke the Indiana
wrist. Police were soon on the
scene and the coon was taken
into custody. Stuart was re
moved to the hospital and
placed under the care of a
doctor. The glass had broken
in coming in contact with hia
face and one eye was badly cut.
