Undeniablv the best dramatic cam
pany which has ever visited Devils
Lake is the Imperial Stock company,
known as the Crows, which is playing
at the armory this week. The open
ing bill on Monday evening was
Merry Minister. On Tuesdy evening
the Count Of Monte Crlsto was the bill.
Both plays were well attended not
withstanding the inclement weather,
and if the frequent outbursts of
hearty applause is any critrion to
/ Judge from the audiences were GER
tainly well pleased. Every member
of this excellent company is a thorough
actor and actress. Their repertoire
calls for a new bill every night. On
Christmas night Thursday evening)
Faust will be presented. The staging
for the production Of this play is
magnificent. The company carries a
vast amount Of special scenery,
electrical effects, etc, and the pre-
%sentation at Devils Lake will be equal
to that put on in any of the large
cities Those who have witnessed
the work Of the company during their
stay in the city thus far, have nc
misgivings as to the ability Of the
company to put the play on in first
class style, and it is a foregone con.
c%lusion that the house will be fed on
this occasion There will be a
matinee Saturday afternoon, the doors
being opened at 80. The play Sat.
urday night will be Fanchon, the
Cricket. 1t is to be hoped this really
~meritorious company will receive tbs
liberal patronage it so richly deserves
while at Devils Lake. For the &C.
commodation of parties living west o
Devils Lake who may want to attent
the performance Thursday night, ar
engagements have been made to hold
the 'sdinkey' train until 1O:45. Or
Thursday night the curtain will rise
promptly at 8 30. Patrons will con
fer a favor upon the management OF
the house if they will kindly be in
their seats at that time.

The only compensation for the la
borer is that he can learn to be a miner
after a few years.
The $3.50 a day which the miner
earns is not the $3.50 which a mechan-
ic on the surface would get from his
employer, for out of it he must pay
for the oil and powder he uses, in get
ting out the coal, and he must also pay
the company's blacksmith for sharp
ening his tools.
The oil and powder are furnished
by the company at a price in excess of
its retail price elsewhere. The miner
buys his provisions at the company's
store, and at company's store prices,
and, ordinarily, he. lives in a house
owned by the company, or paying
ground rent to the company, which is
much the same thing.

LUCK HIM.
President Roosevelt sim Unable TO
Obtain n shot Mt N Missis-

Smedes, Miss, Nov. 1S.-The bears
in h swamp country around the
presidents camp, on the Little Sum
flower, seem to have effected n sue
cessful combination to prevent the
president from having a single shot
AT n of them on the expedition.
The only one the dogs started up
Monday fled in a northeasterly direc-
ton at the first cry of alarm, and did
not stop running until he reached the
cane brakes about nine miles from
camp. There he was overtaken by
Mr.. McDougal, one of the managers
of the Smede plantation, who killed
him at 20 PAGES. The president, who
had started Monday morning in the
rain with Holt Collier, did not hear
the dogs after they first struck the
trail. The president takes his ill
luck good naturally. He says it is
simply the fortune of the chase, and
that he will have a last try to-day.

CHILD SLAVES IN MINES.
Thu Children of Mining Regions In
Pennsylvania and Their Mis-
= cradle Lives.

In the anthracite coal regions of
Pennsylvania there are thousands of
men who began life at the breaker and
are ending there an existence which
has been all u dark, hopeless struggle.
1t is not at all exaggerating the
facts to say that the condition of child
hood in the mining region is one APP
preaching slavery, says the New York
World. As a child the boy starts in
''picking bony" at the breaker, and as
an old man, bent and twisted with age
and often deformed by accident, he
comes back to the breaker to finish his
hard career picking bony" with the
little boys who are just starting out
on the life that he has led.
Without schooling, and never too
well nourished even when the mines
are being operated on full time, the
little boy goes to the breaker and
day after day sits astride n chute down
which the coal passes from the break
er to the cars or the storage sheds. AS
the coal runs along under him he picks
out the "bohy" or, as it is more COM
monty known, the slate, and throws it
Il one side. His wages are so cents u
day.
If the little boy can get enough to
eat to nourish his body and make it
grow, there comes a time some day
when he gets a promotion, and he is
sent into the mine to tend a door. For
that he is paid 60 cents a day to work
in the darkness and CRIME, opening
and shutting the doors as the cars of
coal are drawn through by mules.
If the door boy doesn't get run over
by a mule car, killed by a fall of rock
or have his life snuffed out by an eX-
plosion, he will some time be given an
other promotion, this time to be a
driver of IA mule, and then he will get
72 to so cents a day.
His next step in the line of promo
tion will be to the ranks of the labor
ers. This will not come to pass until
he has become a nina, and not even
then unless he is a powerful man, with
muscles like iron, for a laborer in O
coal mine needs TO have great strength
and endurance.
The laborer is usually paid $1.70
day, when he has work, and out of thai
he has to buy the oil for his lamp, sc
that he is really not as well off as the
common day laporer who works on the
streets above ground.

THE GRAVE
Conference Between Mayor Book
walter and Cantrell Develops Start
ling Disclosures.

indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 19.-Mayor
Bookwalter and Rufus Cantrell, the
grave robber, had n conference in the
grand jury room yesterday. The
mayor went to see Cantrell in answer
to an appeal from a mother, who
feared that her sons body had been
stolen. Before he left, Cantrell made
a confidante of him.
"If what Cantrell told me was true,
half of this grave robbing business
has not been disclosed" said the
mayor.
Minnie Weddell, of st. Louis, had
appealed to the mayor to find out
whether the body of her son Walter
had been stolen from Mount Jackson
cemetery. Cantrell Immediately re-
called the date of the lads burial and
the location of the grave.
"But we did not take that body,
said he. ut was too small. l could
only sell four bodies of children in
a year, for the colleges only needed
that many"
Are you sure of this case?" the
mayor asked.
"Sure? Well, 1 should say am
answered the grave robber. III You
will go to Mount Jackson you Will
find II lump of coal at the head of the
grave. That is to notify any one in
the business that the body is unde-
| sirable. The night after the boy was
buried, / went to Mount Jackson to
get another body. i took h coal
along as n marker. 1t is a sign I'M
derstood by all grave robbers

the volcano Stromboli occurred Sum
day evening, accompanied by n terri

1t was II magnificent spectacle, WISH
BILE from all the northern part of
Sicily, the flames rising from the vol
cano illuminating the surrounding
sea. The situation of the few in
habitants of the island of Stromboli
is precarious. They are frightened
especially by the washing ashore of
great quantities of dead fish, which
have been killed apparently by a SUBJ
marine disturbance. A number of
yachts from Naples and other places
have visited the waters surrounding
the island, to allow those on board to
view the eruption.
