major for his kind words-which
never die-and things like that:
The 5000 or more people assem-
bled at the spacious and splendid
auditorium in the handsome wood
ed Chautauqua grounds, Thursday
evening, June 9th, to enjoy the
mirthful society farce of-My
Friend From India-put on the
stage by local artists-were amply
repaid for the four hours session
every moment causing the be-
holder to feel sure that-every
minute would be his next! It had
been the writer's good fortune to
enjoy the rendition of this same
play, at the Fargo operahouse,
when first presented to the public.
The cast was made up of the best
artists then on the boards, and the
accessories were in accord with the
prophecies of the occasion. The
memories of the pleasure derived
from it's first presentation were
vivid, and on witnessing the farce
this time, were greatly enhanced
by the superior rendition on this
occasion.
The scenery was picturesque,
the music delightful and the vast
audience was at once in perfect
sympathy. Those who had per-
sonal acquaintance. with the play
ers, had an added charm on the
occasion, in that each and every
one not only met but exceeded ex.
pectations. The costumes were

places of striking machinists in the

They were quartered in one of the

Saturday morning, when some un-

any violence themselves, ignited a
fuse and caused an explosion in
the old round house in which the men
were employed.
Division Superintendent Turner at

peace rather than to the preservation
of law and order, as they would be

the strikers and their friends would
Immediately recognize this. He says
that the state laws are ample for pro-

it's own expense, employ as many
guards as may be necessary. He as

The governor declares plainly to
strike sympathizers that no violation
of the law will be tolerated, and the
utmost power Of the state will be ex-
erted. The company has put guards
