Burgum, Arthur, yesterday at the luncheon for pioncer women given by the Minishoshe chapter, D. A. R. Born in 1874 at Camp Hancock, a small handful of tents marking the Place where the capital city now! stands, Mrs. Burgum knew in her early childhood the fear of roving bands of Indians, and the menace of the storms which swept the prairies. But there were pleasures to make up for the hardships, and Mrs. Bur- gum recalls the colorful days when As a young woman Mrs. Burgum, then Jessamine Slaughter, won the agricultural college at Fargo, and aft- erwards she taught in the Painted Woods district, northwest of the city. Mrs. Burgum was martied here 1893, and lived for a time west of Washburn. She has resided in Arthur fora ce hh ees Her story 4 “I am glad to be here to greet you, pioneer women and sisters of the D.

I recall the names of some of these boats: the Miner, the Silver Lake, the Josephine, the Ida Stockdale, the Far West, the Rosebud, the Helena, as nowadays little children repeat the names of Buick, Ford, Pontiac, and we, as little tots, discussed and compared the steamboats, and the advantages of ‘side wheelers’ and ‘stern wheelers.’ “When the river broke up this spring and was duly ‘headlined,’ I recalled that we had just such a flood. I think it was in 1881 when the river was said to be five miles wide and a steamboat steamed over the bottoms and landed at the foot of Third strect. “I recall the older people discuss- ing a storm that wrecked so many boats at the landing. The Rosebud was blown ashore and broken to and the smoke stacks on the ena were blown mening and the Silver Lake reported sunk. “From the first Bismarck had its pioneer priest and pastor, the Cath- olic and the Pre: churches was given last evening at the home of ; informally. public schools and was the first county tT Miss Helen Little, 808 Seventh street. | a * superintendent, of ‘school, | Many wainere’ say aise tues tacticy tte Progressive games were played surgical operat was throughout the evening and prizes Birthday Party Held my father among the crudest sur-|W2S characteristic of ploneer days went to Miss Sarah Jennings and Mrs. A.
