A. II. Simon, joint owner with Scott Mar
Bile Of the new drama The Patrol, was
seen by GLOBE representative at the Mer-
chants yesterday. Speaking of the opening
performance Mr. Simon said it would occur
in few days at Rockford, Ill. The company
is engaged, the scenery is ready, the fastest
pair OF heavy grays IN Chicago have been Sc
cured for the SWEETEST patrol wagon ever
built in the United States and the managers
of The Patrol are ready for business The
threats of the Smell family to stop the pro-
duction of the piece have been followed so
far by no active effort in that dlrec-
ton. VIII lie the plot of the play is
taken from the murder of Millionaire Smell,
and the villain is TaScott to a L: yet the
names used for the characters are different.
and it is extremely DOUBTFUL whether any
effort of the deceased millionaire family To
stop the production would have any other
effect than to advertise The venture from At
lantIc to Pacific: a very desirable result from
managerial point OF view. Scarcely doubt
exists that THE PATROL will make a hit, for
the reason that, while the mechanical effects
are to be grand, the actors and actresses en-
gagged are all clever people and well known
in the profession.
Abner Hart, an agrculturist Of note from
the vicinity of Pipestone City, was at the
Merchants yesterday. Speaking of crop
prospects generally, and the outlook for
Plpestone county i'll particular, Mr.. Hart
said that affairs never looked more promising
for the farmer The rainfall of Saturday had
been heavy all over the state, and, in connec-
ton with the snow on the ground at the
time, ii had been godsend TO the farmers.
The ground was in first-rate condition for
seeding, and spring blowing was going on
merrily. In Pipestone county there would
be an unusually large acreage of flax soWn,
on account of the plan now almost perfected
for the erection of a large oil mill al Pipe
stone.
