A Musical and Financial Success Last
Night.

1t is quite feat to present a success
ful cantata by local talent, especially so
close upon the heels of an opera like
Mikado. Aud the success of last night
is due to the untiring labors Of Mrs.
Sherwood Higgs and Miss Matte Higgs
and of Prof. Bryan. of the Peace lnsti-
tute faculty. Then they had good mate

tralto of Miss Petty, the ever pleasing

Miss Duncan and Miss Simpson, the soft
ethereal tenor of Mr. Reed and the rich,
deep bass of Mr.. Primrose could not fail

Tuesday evening q man named
Dixon, of Randall, complained to
the police that lie had been robbed
of a sum of money in one Of the "a
looms of the city. 1T appears that
Dixon had sold some cattle and re-
ceived about $45 for them. He had
been drinking with q crowd and had
engaged in friendly scuffles with
several. Two men were suspected
and by-stander claimed to have
seen one of them put his hand in
Dixon's pocket. Chief Of Police
Lauerman took the two suspects to
the city hall and searched them, but
found no money on their persons. AS
they had no opportunity to hide the
money, it is quite certain that
neither of them got the money, II
any was lost. No arrests were made
and it is quite probable that none
will be made. The two men who
were suspected have never before
been connected with affairs Of that
kind, and II the money was taken,
some one else, no doubt took 1t.

them were carried out on to the

had a crew of men gathering them

4 stranger arrived In the city

4 stranger arrived in the city
Tuesday morning and offered b.
cycle for sale, claiming that lie came
from Minneapolis in search OF work,
and as he was without money, and
could find no work he desired to sell
his wheel. One OF the persons to
whom he tried to sell the wheel went
to the chief of police to ascertain II
he had any information concerning
this wheel ana finding that he had
not, he purchased 1t. giving the man
$40 for it. The stranger disappeared
soon after getting the money. Next
morning the chief Of police received u
letter from Brainerd asking him to
look out for a wheel OF that descrip-
ton. 1t would seem that the man
who lost the wheel was rather
dilatory in the matter of warning
other communities. However. the
authorities are in communication
with the owner OF the wheel and it is
quite probable that he will pay the
amount to the man who bought the
wheel, 0nd 1t will be returned to
him. As 1t is only case OF petit
larceny. it ia not probable that the
authorities will go to much expense
to look the thief up.
