POSTPONED.

Owing to circumstances over which
they have no control, the ladies COM
mittee in charge of the entertainment
that was to have been given tonight
has been forced to postpone the event
two weeks from tonight. At the las.
moment one of the leading characters
in the play, WANTED a Matchmaker, -
found it impossible to go on with the
part, and it was impossible to substi-
tute another character in the short
time remaining. The rehearsals for
the minstrel performance will be con-
tinued during the two weeks postpone
ment, and some new features will be
added. The band will also take part
in the show, and render some selec-
tions and altogether the performance
will be completer. and better for the
postponement. The sale of seats will
remain on, and all tickets that have
been sold will be good for the post
poned entertainment, to which all
other arrangements that have been
made will also apply. The commit
tee promises an entertainment equal
to any amateur performance given in
the city of late years, and one that will
be we'll worthy of patronage.

DOG AND PONY SHOW.

Norris & Rowe's trained animal show
played to good houses in the city Sat-

show is like old wine-it improves with
age-and it is even better than last
year. Of the dogs and horses little
need be said in commendation-they
are so trained and educated that in
some cases they appear to be gifted
with almost human understanding.
One of the best features of the per-
formance was Prof Winstons trained
seals. There were five Of these and
the manner in which they perform cd
was little short of wonderful Then
there were elephants, monkeys, goats
and other animals-all educated ~
feats that seem little short of the i'm
possible. The hot weather of the past
few days makes the work extremely
hard upon the animals, but they do
their work we'll and the show is well
worthy of commendatioa in every re-
spect.

TALK OF MARRIAGE.
It Is Proper For the Man, but Not
For the Girl, Apparently.

For the Girl, Apparently.
4 man may remark on his intention
to marry at some indefinite future time,
when prudence or other considerations
may make it possible or advisab Bile,
without having, as a rule, to run the
gantlet Of chorus of impertinent and
stupid would be witty remarks. But
should girl be bold enough, or, rather,
natural and simple enough, to say the
same thing what would be the result?
Why, every one knows that she would
be promptly sneered out of counte-
nance.
And why? Is it immodest for wom-
an to express a determination to enter
into state which we are being ccntin-
ually reminded is a natural and honor
able state, While it is modest and prop
er for man to do SO? Such distinc-
ton would never be drawn except for
the 'cheapness'' to which reference has
been made.
If d man wants to marry, he can mar
ry. If the first woman he asks refuses
him. he has only to ask a second or per-
haps a third or fourth. 1t would be
safe to guarantee that within a month
any man of fairly respectable life and
position and appearance who cared to
make the experiment could marry in
his own class, could marry probably a
woman much superior to himself.
But what about the girl who intends
to marry some dayT' Is>she not in a
very different position from the man?
Here is girl Of good character-much
better than the mans. probably-aver-
age intelligence, average good looks.
Theoretically she is free to marry
whom she will, but is she? If she re-
ceives one distinct offer of marriage,
she has had more than her share, ac-
cording to the probable average.
The fact that by an unwritten law a
woman mus not take, and, indeed, does
not want to take, the initiative has very
little to do with the extremely limited
choice which modern conditions impose
upon English women --Nineteenth Cea-
tury. :. .~@ it,5, l}58

Mandan Times: Madge Smith, the
presiding genius of the house beyond
the dixie, was arrested last week by
Deputy Marshal Frank Donnelly and
taken before U. S. Commissioner Shaw.
She is charged with having sold in
toxicating liquor to Indians. Com
missioner Shaw set the hearing for
Monday, July %, and the defendant
gave bonds for her appearance. This
is the first time this establishment has
been molested for selling liquor and
it would probably not have happened
now If the stuff had not been sold to
Indians. bringing the government Off
GERS down on them. 1t has appeared
somewhat remarkable that while there
have been many arrests in Mandan for
violation of the prohibition law this
establishment has never heretofore
been touched. Perhaps it is not an
offense against the state liquor law to
sell beer at a dollar a bottle, or per-
chance these people have a stand-in
with the agents of the enforcement
league, the self-constituted guardians
OF the morals of Mandan. We hope
now that the United States govern
ment has called attention to them that
they will be included in the next raid
and will fare no better than the ven
dors of twenty-five cent beer. And
we prophesy that this will come to
pass. There are some people in town
so old-fashioned as to believe that one
house of the character under discus
sion is more demoralizing to COM
snunity than a dozen plain saloons.
