Matter of Veracity.

Judge Snippam asks us to dc
him the favor to state that he
had nothing to do with issuing
or circulating the letters and
communications concer n II g
Judge Orcutt, and knew moth
ing about them. He says ne
proposes to keep out of person
al fights in Richland County,
Gazette.
Wahpeton, North Dakota,
Dear Sir: Your vote on No
vember 9th, 1900, for 20. ].
Wakefield for County Judge"
on the Republican ticket will
be personal favor to me. Mr..
o. J. Wakefield is competent
man, poor, but honest, his op-
ponent has had the office some
8 years and is quite a wealthy
man, having obtained two years
ago quite a large sum of money
from the NJ. T. Rich estate and
therefore does not need the Of
fee. 1t means a piece of bread
and butter for Wakefield and
his family, if elected. Give
Wakefield a Vote" and you will
do me favor.
Judge Orcutt has published
to the voters of this county that
he has introduced a splendid
system of books in this office,
which is misleading, and done
simply to get votes for himself.
The last and prior legislatures,
expressly provide just what re-
cords shall be kept and none
other has or could be kept.
Kindly vote for O. ]. Wake
field for County Judge" and
oblige, Yours very truly,
oHN SHIPPAM.
Judge Orcutt asked US to
print the above extract from
the Gazette and the letter
which follows it, that people
may judge just how near Mr..
Shippam can come to telling
the truth.

The Edward Baxter Perry
piano recital at the Congrega-
tional church, Monday even
ing, was largely attended. Mr..
Perry's little lecture-explana-
tions preceding each recital
was interesting, but the reci-
tails for the most part were or
dinary, compared with good
performers. We thought he
failed in Chopin's works. This
work is too delicate for him,
apparently. In none of the re-
,'itals did he carry the tone or
shade his music. In the last,
however, LISTS Sixth Rhap-
sodie, he attained good success
played it nicely. Mr.. Perry
was at disadvantage, too, in
not having his own. piano,

The new and beautiful Con-
gregational church was thrown
open to it's members and friends
and formally dedicated last
Sunday. The story of the gen
Grafton of enthusiasm, the de-
termination to build, the sale
of the old church and of the
changes of place of, worship,
the disappointments of year
and a half, are too fresh in the
memory and too much in con-
trast with the present joy of
being in possession of the new
church to be given a place in
this article.
Since the breaking of the
ground at 7:1O a. tn., on the 9th
of June, 1900, the work has gone
forward with little or no DELAY.
1t required a little hustling last
week but all had a mind to
work and everything was in
readiness. At 1890 the full
capacity of the building was in
use and the order of service re.
gularly used was begun. Rev
O. +. Champlin of Dwight, in.
voked the divine blessing; the
scripture was read by Rev. w
A. Baker of the NJ. E. church
and Pres. E. p. Robertson of the
Red River Valley University
led in prayer. The chorus choir
rendered in a very pleasing and
able way an anthem. "The
Twenty-Third Psalm" The
dedicatory sermon was preach
ed by Rev. G. b. Barnes, from
the words. "What think We of
Christ" 1t was masterful
sermon full of logic and fire.
1t was worthy of the occasion
and Of the man who has served
the church with two pastorates
and to whom more than any
other one man is due the credit
of bringing the church to it's
present strong position in the
city. Following the sermon
the Ladies Quartet sang Te
Deum.
Don. II. Davidson, chairman
of the building committee read
a statement showing that the
total cost of the building in
cluding the furnishings except
hymn books is $8,52S.44. OF
this amount ST, 800 is provided
for by a loan to be paid for $500
per year without interest and
$324.41 is a renewed grant from
the church building society.
The balance had been provided
for by the various societies of
the church and by subscrip-
tions said and available with
the exception of $99O.45. The
pastor Rev. E. S. Shaw then
came forward and proposed
that this amount be raised in
order that the church might be
suitably dedicated. A black
board was brought in, marked
off in squares in which were
written sums ranging from,
800 down to $40. In a short
time $S84.47 was subscribed in
cash pledges and the collection,
owing to the lateness of the
hour it was thought best to de-
fer futher exercises until the
evening service. At the COM
n1union service in the after
noon. Rev. G. J. Powell of Far
go, Supt. of Home Missions for
North Dakota, gave a strong

Almost every famous actor
has played in "The Marble
Heart" Chas. Selby's great
drama but none ever made a
more pronounced success of
the character of Raphael than
Mr.. William Owen. The part
is strong, intense and inspiring,
and is one very apt to be over
done. Mr.. Owen has received
a great deal of praise and fav-
orable comment for his rendi-
ton of the character, and he
has been requested to repeat
the play in almost every place
where he has produced it. The
play gives ample opportunity
for magnificent dressing, and a
great deal of care and expense
have been lavished on the
wardrobe used in the produc-
ton. The scenery is all special
and as near as possible. histor-
ically correct, as are the
costumes. Wahpeton Opera
