An Inteana..onal Complleatlon.

From Pagny-sur-M Moselle comes news of an international complication which was happily resolved without the spilling of blood When the train which was bound for Metz drew into the station whence it should pass into German control, it was found that onG of the carriages contained, conspicu, ously pasted, a caricature of the Kaiser, painted with an insulting le- gend. The German guard refused to have anything to do with such a train. Now you cannot find train, and to immure it in fortress is poor satis- faction. But you can cut off it's en- zine. And that the German guard threatened to do If the insult were not wiped out It was wiped out, not by blood, but by hot water applied by . carriage cleaner.

The above heading scarcely tells the
whole truth about the football game
between DEBORAH and the second team
of the Upper Iowa University, of
Fayette, on the fair grounds Monday
afternoon. 1t was one of the snappiest
games we have ever witnessed, and
was clean, well fought battle through
out, the DEBORAH team winning by
their superior weight over the U. L. u.
team. When the iron wall of the home
team went up against the opposing
eleven they simply moved down the
field. The DEBORAH team is much
better on the offensive than the de-
fensive, and with little more training
will make very formidable eleven,
while the Fay cite boys are fast, snappy
players, and put up good game. They
are gentlemanly fellows, and there was
no wrangling whatever over decisions.
The home team made two touch-downs
and kicked goal once in each half, and
the game ended with the ball in De-
corah's field. Score % too

"A Free Lance" Tomorrow.

The following clipping from ST.
Paul regarding the popular romantic
actor Mr.. Robert B. Mantell, who
comes to the grand tomorrow night
speaks for itself. Mr.. Mantell has
no equal in his particular line of work
and his play, "a Free Lance" is the
best he has presented. "At the Grand
Opera House Robert b. Mantell pre-
sented "a Free Lance, opening to a
full house. AS the brave and dashing
Sir Rudolph in Free Lance" Mr..
Mantell, who is pronounced favorite
with st. Paul audiences, added new
laurels to those he had already won.
He enacted the role with dramatic
breadth and vigor. Marie Booth Rus
sell in the rode of Princess Hilda
shared the honors with Mr.. Mantell.
Miss Russell is blessed with charm
ing personality and rich musical
voice. John Sutherland was excellent
as Gotfried Won Bergman. Reginald
Darlington as Count Oscar, Evelyn
Carter as Magda, and David r. Young,
Francis Conlan, Ethel Bruce, and
Aida Rivers made the most of their
parts.

Beautiful Romance.

The period that w. A. Tremayne
has selected for the play that Robert
B. Mantell presents this season is one
that no dramatist has chosen to offer
before in romantic form-the turbulent
epoch that held sway in North Ger
many about the year 1850. Mr.. TIE
mayne, who wrote Mr.. Mantell's sue
cessful plays of two seasons past, "a
Secret Warrant" and "The Dagger and
the Cross" we'll remembered by all
playgoers, has called his latest work,
IA Free Lance" title that most
aptly describes the picturesqueness
and heroism of the principal character
which in the capable hands of Mr..
Mantell himself becomes at once q
living and realistic parsonage of an
exciting period too long neglected by
the dramatist. The star has the as.
sistance of powerful company and
superb scenic accompaniment selected
by the practiced skill of Manager M
w. Hanley. AT the Grand tomorrow

What Rnmors These?

Dame rumor has been very busy the
past week with her musings. One of
the most prominent was the report
that p. d. Armour & Co., of Chicago,
was negotiating for the Ammon, Scott
& Co. foundry building, in which to
open provision house for this section.
Another was that they had decided to
buy lots and erect building. We
have been unable to trace these
rumors to their starting point, or to
ascertain whether or not there is any
truth in them, but such concern for
DEBORAH would not meet with any very
serious opposition from DEBORAH peo-
pie. No, not very much.
