locomotives and cars, engine and train
service, train supplies, fuel, oil and
waste, amounted to $l5, ,422 90. From
which the commission tlnds there is
sufficient traffic proper to be handled
by a regular passenger train, to pay all
the expense OF operating such train
and earn net revenue of at least $9, 900
a year for the company.
From the reports and evidence sub
mitted the commission decided that
such traffic was sufficient to Justify or
dering the company to operate regu-
lar passenger train between Mitchell
and Cham berlain, daily each way ex-
cept Sundays The order which was
served on the company yesterday con-
cludes as follows:
stNow therefore, upon due considera-
tion OF all the facts and circumstances,
it is ordered That on and after the
18th day of Novem ber. 1897, the Chica.
go. Milwaukee g. ST, Paul railway com
pany, do operate regular passenger
train each way daily (except Sundays)
from and between the station of Nit
chell and Chamberlain, and over it's en-
tire line of railway from Mitchell to
Chamberlain. wholly distinct and
separate from any freight train, or
freight cars, ard that it wholly refrain
from including in, or attaching to. such
passenger train. except in cases of
emergency or fast or perishable freight.
and then only in cars fitted with. air
brakes and modern couplers."

anything of like nature travelling in
the west, and we regret that the audi
ence was not three times as large, for
the excel'ency OF the company deserved
1t. Every number on the program was
attractive and the kindness with which
nearly every number at was eqcored
and responded to created warm and
SYMPATHETIC feeling between the audi
ence and members Of the company. The
versatility of the company is remarka-
BILE from the fact that they are not con-
fined to one line of music. The quar-
tette singing by the ladies was greatly
enjoyed. Their voices blended in rich
harmony and their tones were pure and
full, and their mandolin and guitar
work, in the ensemble, was particularly
attractive. Miss Delaney, the soprano
and Mrss. Purcell, the contralto, each
sang q solo and were accompanied by
the mandolin club and piano and both
numbers gave the keenest pleasure to
the audience. Mr.. McPike impressed
the audience as a splendid elocutionist
and also contributed literally to the
musical work of the evening on the
madolin and violin. Little Tommy Pur-
cell, however, was the lion Of the oc-
casion. The little fellow, though but
8years old, showed the versatility and
ability Of performer three times his
age. he played q violin solo that was
wonderful in touch, technique and inter-
probation. He recited two pieces that
were splendid and his singing was away
above the average of boy singers. All
in all the concert gave the utmost salts
faction and it is sincerely hoped that
the Schuberts will come this way again
next season, for they have certainly
won warm place in the hearts of Nit
chell people. 4

Judge smiths Plurality Nearly Equals

Probably one of the biggest changes
in the political situations of the state
occurred in the fourth judicial circuit,
where year ago ten counties gave
Bryan plurality of about 300 and it
seemed like an insurmountable thing
to pull down that plurality, but with
the feeling that they had winning

cans started in to elect their man.
With what success they met can best
be explained by publishing the vote

BAPTIST CHURCH STATISTICS.

What Progress Has Been Made by the
Society as Shown by the Report.
Much advancement has been made by
the Baptist Church Society in this
state the past year as shown by the re-
port Of DR.. T. NJ. Shanafelt, correspond
ing secretary and superintendent of
Baptist missions, and all has been ac-
complished in the face of financial
drawbacks. With the opening of the
year it was the purpose to raise among
the churches for missionary purposes
the sum of 50, 100 which would entitle
the society to secure an appropriation
of $4,000 from the Home Missionary
society. The amount was raised by
Systematic work, and the efforts of the
workers was directed to the building
up and strengthening of churches
ones. During the year Al missionaries
have been under appointment, laboring
in the different parts of the state, and

were received by baptism and 143 by
letter and experience. The total
amount raised by churches and Sunday
schools during the year was S26, 1928,
the expense of conducting the churches
being 2l,5oo.
Two houses of worship have been
erected, one at Bradley and one at
Bur in Miner county, and three nesx
churches were organized in various
parts of the state. The work was aided
somewhat by four theological students
from Chicago, who labored in various
parts of the state during the summer,
their efforts resulting in the baptism of
80 converts and the organization Of one
church.

They Gave Good Perpormsnce and
Pleased the Public.
White men can usually make more
fun in minstrelsy than the fellows who
don't have to use burnt cork, and this
was aptly demonstrated in Beach &
Bowers performance Friday evening
at the Grand opera house. The com
panyi is COMPOSED of good artists in
their lines and evoked q great deal Of
laughter by their jokes and songs, and
the comments were very favorable by
those in attendance. The opening was
more on the lines of the old time min
strel show, and contained some splen-
did features in singing. Most OF >the
jokes were new, but come OF them had
been sprung once or twice by three
other minstrel shows which have ap-
peared here this season. The curtain
went down on the first part with q
laughable travesty on Uncle Toms
CabinA Then came a fine exhibition of
club swinging by Knetzkes, followed
by the black knights on dress parade
with songs, Hays and Esterbrook, the
musical kings in their work on differ
ent musical instruments, and Mr..
Beach's dog show. he had some we'll
trained dogs and they were under good
control.
The company appeared under trying
circumstances. The electric lights
failed to come on and the house had te
be supplied with other lights, three
big lamps being used for footlights and
they cast such a glare that it was diff
fcult to see on the stage.
The attendance was quite large, thu
numb of>people reaching about $50
which can be considered good when i
is taken into consideration that thi
