The Post gives an account ol Sunday's game as follows:—"A crowd of 400 persons watched the Dickinson colts exercise at the ball park on Sunday afternoon. There was uo game. Some lads from Heach and Wibaux were present and assisted in mak ing the afternoon comedy a success from every standpoint. The locals took turns in swatting the ball and prancing around the cushions. It was a good time to prac tice Delsarte in base running and the Dickinson bunch made the best of it. A bout the only thing marvelous about the game was the noticeable improvement in the infield. Somebody has surely been coaching the team. There were no holes for safe hits and the way the fellows had of eating up the speedy grounders was a delight to the eye. At the bat everybody made good, even some whose stick work is not always the subject of enthusiastic comment. The Beach lads showed lack of- organi zation and practice. They were up a gainst it and knew it but were good for the best that was in them and are worthy of commendation for that. They played just as hard in the last inning as in the first and their good plays were generously applauded. The Beach field did good work but the infield was rotten. Two men got to third during the progress of the contest. "One player stopped a batted ball in the fifth and that about covers the game." J. C. Gile has his new meat market coinpteted and opened the same for busi ness Monday. He will also run a delivery wagon in the country thru harvesting and threshing. He wishes to state that he kills his own meat and will sell by the side or chunk. .Your attention is called to his dis play ad elsewhere. Farmers Elevator for Beach. That Beach is to have a Farmers Kle vator is now an assured fact. Enough stock has been sold to make the thing a success and the farmers of this community feel lucky to get a farmers elevator at this early date.

Jensen, an experienc ed grain buyer, who has charge of the work, has secured a 150 ft. site on the right-of-way east of the Thorpe elevator, and has commenced work on the structure which will be completed and ready for grain not later than Sept. 15th.

Evans and Mrs. Zena Zink had de cided to be married in a short time, but on Monday Judge Paxton came down from Sentinel Butte on official business on No. 8 intending to return on No. 5. In the meantime it was suggested to Mr. Evans that the presence of the judge afforded an excellent opportunity to be married at once. Acting on the suggestion Mr. Evans went to the hotel kitchen, where his intended had been officiating as cook for a few weeks and pleaded in his most persuasive style for an immediate marriage saying: "Come on Honey let's get married right away, the judge is here and I can't wait any longer nohow." The bride to be said alright and the judge and friends were summoned at once. There was no time to don conventional black or white silk with bride's roses as the judge momentar ily^expected his train, so the bride appear ed with such hurried changes in apparel as she was able to make and the groom in his shirt sleeves with his trousers tucked in his spurred cowboy boots. When the judge propounded to him the question "Do ypu take this woman to be your law ful wedded wife?" the groom replied with great unction—"you bet your life."
