The Weekly YEAR DEADWOOD, S. D. BLACK HILLS) THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1905. FIVE CENTS, LOCAL FOOTBALL TEAM DINED AFTER INDIAN SCHOOL VICTORY All of the members of the football team were entertained at dinner Sunday night at the, Gilmore by Ralph Jenkins, an enthusiastic supporter the team. Plates were laid for team, substitutes and coaches and boys enjoyed a jolly evening.

Those present were Messrs. Stromberg, Barry, Wiseflow, Wardman, Jolitz, Willard, Andrew, Moore, Heffron, Newitt, McGill, Manager Everett, Parker, Matson and Crogan. After dinner Mr. Robertson of the Nebraska University addressed the boys on football and all adjourned the parlor where they spent the evning singing college songs. Miss son gave several much apprecited solos on the piano, Mr.

Goodman played a number of solos on his ministerel clappers. Mr. Jenkins whistled a few songs and Messrs. Dowling and Downie sang several, solos. The boys wound up the evening by giving a tiger for their host.

There were numerous features Saturday's game that deserve particular mention. Andrew and Walker were the bright particular stars the day. Both seldom failed to make a good gain when given the ball. They were fleet and fast at starting and showed splendid pluck by holding their feet when tackled and always falling forward. Moore played the best game he has ever done.

His running was full of vim and he struck the line when bucking, hard and low, often tearing through without interference. The tackling of Heffron and Newitt on the ends was clean and low which was shown the many futile attempts of the In-dians even with good interference, to get around either end. Barry an1 Weisflow proved a tower of strength at guard. Both of them broke through the Indians line repeatedly and downed their man. Wardman at tackle was mose conspicuous in this sort of work while Jolitz at tackle and Stromberg at center were almost invincible.

Only one of the Indians' rushes through either of these points made a good gain. Willard showed good judgment in giving the ball and directing the plays and was in on many a star tackle. But there are faults to be found in the playing of Saturday's game that should be looked after. Willard is too slow in giving signals and allows a for a bright opponent to figure out the play in advance. Wardman, Barry and Weisflow were all guilty of too much impetuousness and as a result were several time off sides.

The boys should all abandon the habit of looking in the direction that the play is to go as this is inexcusable folly. Like many other good players Andrew has that failing of always desiring to carry the ball. He should remember that there are others on the team who if given the chance will make their gain. Because he is captain and knows that he can make the distance is not always the best reason for his carrying the ball to the exclusion of the other backs. He should remember that too frequent running will do more to make him go stale than any other thing.

As a whole the team is lamentably weak on interference. Of course the season has just commenced and the practices have been few, but many a time in Saturday's game the runner could be seen worming his way through a string of redskins without a teammate within ten feet of him. At other times the interference would be behind the runner pushing him through an open field instead of protecting him in front. This is partly the runner's fault for he should drop behind his interference when it is formed. Another weakness was the punting.

While Moore never lost ground while unning with the ball his kicking was inferior. Each time when he tried he had ample opportunity to get off his kicks but failed to 1m- his chance. One punt went prove almost directly in the air and the other was short and poorly aimed. A good fullback requires both care and coolness in getting off his kicks in the face of an onrushing opponent and should never lose his head and kick the ball anyway to get it out where they will make their home upon their return from a wedding trip to Hot; Springs. Mr.

Herbour for some time has been one the engineers at the Ellison hoist the Homeof stake property and is a trusted and valuable employe. Mrs. Manseau since coming from Sioux City about a year ago has made many friends in both Lead and Deadwood. They left yesterday afternoon on the B. M.

for Hot Springs. NAVAL RECRUITING OFFICE OPENED HERE SOON. Commencing October 23, a naval recruiting office will be opened in this city for the purpose of enlisting men for Uncle Sam's warships. H. D.

Rogers, a chief gunner in the servise but now on recruiting duty, is in the city to make the location for an office and the necessary arrangements for the enlistments. Lieutenant S. I. M. Major will be in charge of the office which will be open until October 28.

Apprentices and seamen from the surrounding towns will be enlisted whenever aceeptable. The men enlisted will be taken for service on the new warships Kansas and Charleston, now under construction. These vessels are not expected to be ready for service for about nine months, but the service is already over 9,000 men short for the new vessels and they are being taken in and sent to Norfolk, W. as fast as possible. The Charleston when completed will be the flagship of the China squadron so that some of the men enlisted will see far eastern service.

There are great possibilities in the naval service today for bright young men, particularly telegraphers who are eagerly sought for the wireless service that is rapidly being installed on all of the nation's principal dogs of war. For ordinary seamen and apprentices the age limit is 17 years and 18 for men with a trade. YOM KIPPUR FAST WAS LARGELY CELEBRATED. Touching neither bread nor water to their lips, pious Hebrews Monday celebrated Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement and as a result a number of Jewish stores throughout the city remained closed until after 6 p. m.

The day is one of fast. It commenced Saturday at sundown and was celebrated until sundown last evening. Services were held in the Odd Fellows hall all day long and the occasion was one of fast and prayer for the religiously Inclined. The season of fasting begins on October 15 and lasts nine days. It is known as the feast of Sucoth.

Then come the feast of Tora or harvest festival. In ancient days the Jews repaired to a open dwelling house where they feasted. This house was decorated with all manner of harvest articles. EDNA STEELE IS SENT TO COUNTY HOSPITAL. Edna Steele has drunk to the dregs her cup of woe and the streets of Deadwood will know her no more.

For a quarter of a century a well known character, she will end her days and her grief in the county poor house where she was yesterday committed by order of Judge Bennet: in the county court. Edna was tried bythe board of insanity and gave evidences of a weak mind. She was then given the alternative of going to the county poor farm or being sent to Yankton and she chose the former She agreed to go to the hospital providing she might be allowed to take her trunk and her wish was granted. For months the woman has opposed all efforts to send her to the county hospital. CHINATOWN AS JEAN COWGILL SEES IT.

Again has Jean Cowgill, the clever local writer and niece of Judge Burns, attracted attention by her articles in the Chicago Chronicle. In last Sunday's issue there appears a vivid pen picture of scenes in Chinatown entitled "The Pitfalls of a Great City." Miss Cowgill in her snappy style has given a true and interesting account of the dangers that best the young girl of today in "chop suey" joints and Chinese restaurants, not spoiling the story by omitting the allurements that are there to be seen. To any one who has visited a Chinese quarter in a big city, the story cannot fail to interest. COULDN'T WAIT SO ELOPED FAY LOOP AND GEORGIA WILLIAMS OF STURGIS, FIGURE IN ROMANTIC RUNAWAY MATCH LAST MONDAY. Good people in Sturgis were not a little surprised yesterday morning to learn of an elopement from their midst Monday evening.

Fay Loop and Miss Georgia Williams, both well known at that place were the principals in this romantic form of matrimony. Just why they chose the secret method is not known as there was no especial objection to the marriage except that Mrs. Williams, the mother of the girl, believed her daughter rather young for marriage. The young people laid their plans carefully and took only one friend into the secret. This was Miss Retta Mance, a chum of Miss Williams.

Monday afternoon Loop and the girl were together and just before the arrival of the south bound Northwestern they were joined by Miss Mance. The three boarded the train quietly and slipped into a seat and before any one was aware of their action, had left the town behind. Fay Loop and Georgia) Williams were classmates at the Normal school graduating there last year. For some time there had been an attachment between the two and whispers of an approaching wedding were not denied. Loop is barely twenty and the girl a year his junior.

This season she has been teaching at a small country school just out of Sturgis coming in to town every night. Her mother, Mrs. Williams who is a widow, had never raised any serious objection to the match rather favoring young Loop, but desired her daughter to wait. This the young people concluded they could not do. As they purchased no tickets, it is not known where they went but word is looked for any moment telling of the marriage somewhere down the line.

Loop purchased a new suit case Monday in which the necessary belongings of the three were carried. Young Loop is the son of N. H. Loop, a respected carpenter of Sturgis and both he and his sweetheart bear an excellent reputation. GREAT INTEREST TAKEN IN FIRE DEPARTMENT HEAD.

John Wilson and M. M. Wheeler. Talk of the election of officers, particularly of the department chief, which comes up at the next monthly meeting was indulged in and is causing siderable interest. Arthur Simpson and Herman Bischoff are the most prominently mentioned for the position.

Karl Sasse, the Main street butcher, had prepared a toothsome repast to which ample justice was done. CIRCUIT COURT WILL NOT BE HELD BEFORE DECEMBER.

He wired that he would go to Meade and Butte counties of this state and hold court there during the month of November and that no court would be held here until after that period which will be some time in December. It is said that the reason is that the criminal docket is not very heavy and that the civil cases can wait. Car Jumped the Track. Spreading rails supposed to have been caused by the sudden cold snap, was the result of a small wreck on the Spearfish line of the B.

M. yesterday morning which delayed the train several hours. Just before reaching Terry, the rear wheel of the passenger coach left the track and the car swung partly around on the rail blocking the line. The wrecker was sent up from Deadwood and after several hours work, the car was replaced on the track and the train continued its journey to Spearfish, returning to Deadwood at 10:45 last evening. EASTERN NEWSPAPERS ARE TAKING UP BLACK HILLS CAR Eastern papers are taking up the trip of the Black Hills advertising car with extensive descriptions that reflect considerable credit on the Hills and the manner in which the exhibit in the car is arranged.

Mr. Karlson came to Deadwood Saturday evening and proceeded to enjoy life as he deemed best. Sunday he was still seeing friends and acquiring considerable hilarity. In a Lee street saloon he met Nettie Davis and after a few drinks an argument arose. Nettie objected to Karl's talk and promptly swatted that gentleman one in the eye giving him a black optic.

Mr. Karlson hunted up a policeman and had Nettie arrested, charging her with relievening him of $40 which he said he had on him. Nettie denied the charge, but was thrown in jail together with Karlson who was to be the witness. The case came up before Justice Neil McDonough at 1 o'clock Monday afternoon. Karlson failed to prove his charge of the "touch" and the' costs of the case were assessed against him.

When the circuit court convenes an interesting case is likely to come before it C. O. Sparks, the proprietor of the Cliff House on the road to Spearfish, will have to answer to the charge of selling liquor without a license.

Sparks was arrested Monday and brought to Deadwood by Sheriff Trathen. The warrant was issued from Justice Eckhardt's court on the complaint of Deputy State's Attorney R. C. Hayes. It charges Sparks with selling liquor without a license since July 15, 1905, without naming any, specific instance.

Subpoenas are to be issued for a number of persons who will be asked to testify as to what they know of the resort that has been used all summer by weary travelers who not infrequently stop in for a meal and a rest.
