The quartets were fine and the p'aying ' perfect. We enjoyed "Annie Laurie , " sung by the trio , very much , and nlo the vocnl quaitet Applause for the nmitlo- lin quartet .showed that m my en joyed that part of the program as well as any , though every part of the program was well received. ' Sidney Landon rnado all laugh and ' he showed himself to be an im- pcrsonator of no mean ability. His make up on the stage of the old man was nrirvplnns , as also tho dutchman of Now York who want- 1 ed to talk politics , and the Swede who was home sick and in love. , " By . \ iminy I vish I heir de m i Geo. W. Sislejof Crookston , was in the city Monday. We don't know anything about foot ball , as some of our readers perhaps know by last week's write up of the foot ball game between Valentine and O'Xeill at this place on Thanksgiving day. In one place we stated that , "Wallace McDonald made several good foul tackles. " where we meant that he stopped the runner carrying the fool ball. Our description was based partly on terms used by foot ball players and thought stopping a runner of the opposing side was "fouling him' ' in his pur pose to extend the ball toward the goal. Xow if we have made an other blunder in making thi cor rection , it is b ? cati-e of our lack of knowledge of foot ball terms. W. H. Carter , of Cody , came down Tuc.sday of last week-to have his wrist lanced and doctored. Severil week's ago he was loading heav.timber . - and the following day felt a severe pain in his left wrist which had gradually grown worse until last week when he came down to get Dr Lewis lance it for him and found that pus had formed next to the bone which was taken ut and we hope he will be gin at once to improve. Fie has lost several pounds in weight since suffering from this sprained wrist and two of his finders and his , thumb have no feeling but they may recover , now that the seat of trouble has been reached. Mr , Carter called on us last Saturday. Prof. Crabtrec , president of the Peiu Xorrnal school , delivered a , lecture on ihe best schools and teachers la b Friday evening at the M E. church. The Professor enlav < rd < upon his title , including the influence- associates and the gener-.I intere-t of communities in education. The lecture was well worth hearing and we are sorry that thereere not more people to hear him Prof. Watson , in introducing Prof. Crabtree , stated that it was worth four years of anyone.- ' time to know such a man a i In- - - of the Pern nor mal ciio ! > l for the influence it u on Id have over one knowing him. W < are permitted to give the first part of the Professor's lecture al- uio-t veibatim ami make a brief coiii'iM-nt or report of the remain der which does not do justice to the real lecture , but is more than' th'ordinary newspaper report H'id * uiieh we are plea-eel to place before our ruaders. Mrs. W. S. Jack-on favored the audience with a solo , accompanied by Mrs. Gene- vie ve lie wet t. both before and af- tei the leehnehich was well re ceived b.ever.xone . . The lec ture , in p-irt , appears on another pasie of tliis paper. " Patsy" or "Little. Patsy , " a woman who had lived at the Ilar- sporting hou-e for about two years , was found dead Tuesday morning on East Railroad street , a couple hundred yards east of town. The woman was accustom ed t' > nsjriir morphine and cocaine. atn I ; > box of eachHS found in her stocking. She had perhaps ; taken an over dose and died from ' heart failure or exposure. Wit- : . who had her the ne.-ses seen eve ning previous stated that she ap peared to be as usual and left the Harris place about S:30 : p. m. to come up town. She was seen up town near 9 o'clock b.v several persons but no one took any par ticular notice of her.
