The Police Made ''Round-up'' Last Night
and Brought in Six.

The police went into the highways and
hedges and in the railroad yards and out
to the functions last night, looking for
suspects"
They thought maybe they could find
someone who was wanted for something,
and they brought in half dozen hard
looking characters.
A man giving his name as John Will
liams, took a desperate chance in trying
to escape from Officer Gaines at the
Union Pacific junction. Williams had a
shotgun which he threw away when he
saw the officer, and attempted to jump
passing freight train that was passing at
a quick rate.
He missed his footing and fell almost
under the wheels. Officer Gaines ex-
pected to find Williams mangled re-
mains all along the track, but the man
was soon up and off in the darkness
After chasing him for half mile Gaines
fiDAIly overlook Williams.

passed Off remarkably well for first
performance of amateurs, and they will
doubtless tonight go on smoothly. w.
L. Lovdal as King, Miss Lena Gore as
Queen Esther, Fred Ray as Haman and
Miss Edna Ficks carried their parts out
well, both in singing and action. Evelyn
Colgan, as Zerish's child, did well be-
yond her years. The costumes of the
principal performers were rich and hand
some, and those of the chorus made a
fine appearance. Altogether the cantata
was a decided success and was well APP
preciated. The chorus singing and ac-
tion was excellent. Professors Hakes
and Hand have worked faithfully and
the effects of their training was manifest.
Miss Minnie Huff rendered the "Mis-
erere' between the acts and had to re-
spond to a persistent recall. Her solo,
"Have Mercy. Queen" which is of her
own composition, is beautiful thing and
was sung very effectively. Where all did
