s.'THE THREE MUsKETEERs."


q Return of Princeton's fayorite Mr. san
ford Dodge in ..The Three NIusketeers.
Almost: everyone has read Dumas
great story Of ''The Three Musket-
eers:n Therefore an added interest is
taken when old familiar characters
are taken from their places in the
book and real live representatives Of
fered US in their stead. Whois not
willing to live over again this time in
a more realistic manner the wild i'm
petuous flight with the reckless Gas
con, D'Artagnan, that mad whirlwind
OF gayety, a mixture of fighting blood !,
chivalrous honor, wild animal spirits
and pretty sentiment. Then as an Off
set we have the moody Athos brooding
over his wrongs. The clustering
Porthos with his many adven-
lures and the pewitching Constance
who furnishes pretty love sentiment
with our noble Gascon, pitted against
these we have my Lord, the Cardinal
Richelieu, who is q familiar picture on
the American stage and has been
played by all the great actors. The
willy old Cardinal is valuable aquisi-
tion Of stage portrait and cannot be
treated lightly. ,.. 49, p:
Lady de Winter furnishes strong
picture Of woman scorned, seeking
for vengeance and putting aside her
own offspring rather than forego re-
venge. This is part not easily played
and requires more than ordinary
talent. There are Of course many
other pleasing characters including
Anne, OF Austria, Buckingham, Boni-
face, ETC., the whole making up one OF
the most romantic and delightful
plays.
Mr.. Sanford Dodge, who plays the
fascinating youth, has given long and
careful study to the part and in fact he
is credited with being the nearest ap-
proach to Salvini the younger, who
probably was the greatest D'Artagnan
in recent years. Mr.. Dodge possesses
that magnetism and youthful buoyance
80 necessary in the portrayal Of such a
part and made a distinct success, his
performance OF D'Artagnan being &C.
corded everywhere the highest praise.
Mr.. Dodge has surrounded himself
with company of artists, ladies and
gentlemen, and each and every charac
ter has been given the most minute at
tention and careful study, conse
quently the performance as given by
the Sandford Dodge company is 8
dramatic gem and will be welcomed
everywhere and most especially il
those places that have been fortunate
enough to have already seen this pro
duction. Mr.. Dodge will be remem
bered by those who attended his per
formance of Quo 'Vadis last season
At Jesmer's opera house Monday even

A HAUL OF FAME / / ,
Sheriff Claggett Followed the Fores-.
ton Burglars Like Sher-
lock Holmes.
They Were Finally Run to Earth in
Minneapolis and Arrested
Last Friday.

Harry Ray, alias Handsome Harry
and George McGinnis will hereafter
have q wholesome respect for the law
as administered in Mile Laos county
and it all comes about through the
promptness of their arrest by Sheriff
Claggett, charged with burglarizing
the Neumann store at Foreston.
The sheriff had little to work on ex-
cept that two suspicious characters
had been seen in Foreston and Milaca
the day before the crime was COM
mitted but with this slight clew he was
able to land his men within three days
after the crime. The sheriff located
his men in Minneapolis and was as
sisted in the arrest by some of the
members of the city detective force.
When arrested the criminals were
occupying a tumble.down shack in
North Minneapolis with a couple of
female consor:s, and were easily taken.
They we're brought to the village Fri
DAY nlghJ ana were taken before Judge
Dickey Saturday for a hearing. The
defense asked for an adjournment until
next Monday, which was granted.
Meanwhile several Foreston parties
had taken peekin's" and positively
identified them. The sheriff has ac-
cumulated sufficient evidence to give
them both term at the State prison.
Speaking of their arrest the prison
ers said that the Minneapolis news
papers gave Inspectors Lawrence and
Murphy all the credit Of making the
arrests, but if they had not been
''pinched'' before the "hy bobs'' had
got around to the job they would still
be at liberty. Claggett, they say,
should be given all the credit.
