Welded Miss knight.

On April 8 dispatches to twin city papers
from Sisseton, S. D., said that William
Davidson and a Miss Knight had been mar
ried, although the alleged bridegroom already
had wife and baby at Minor, N. D. It was
set out that Mr.. Davidson made hurried de-

prosecute him.
Mr.. Davidson recently took employment in
minneapolis and asks h e Journal to

not elope with or marry Miss knight and
neither he nor his family has lived at Minor.
Prior to going to Sisseton his home was at

NEVADA is COMING
The Famous Cantatrice Will Sing
Here in May.

Here in May.
Nine. Emma Nevada, one of the best
known singers America has ever called
her own, will appear at the Lyceum thea.
ter, Tuesday evening, May G.. 1t has been
several years since Nine. Nevada last
came here, but her return will be await
ed with much pleasurable anticipation by
every music lover who has heard her m
the past. The success she has scored
both at home and abroad has been earned
by untiring energy and pluck, for the
western songstress, in the beginning Of
her career, had much to contend with.
She was born in Nevada mining camp,
of poor parents, and afterwards took her
name from the state Of her nativity. AS
a child she used to sing for the miners,
and one day her voice attracted the at
tention of travelling theatrical manager,
who took her to San Francisco and put
her on the stage. Her success was in
stantaneous, and soon the little mining
waif earned enough money to take her
abroad where she began the study of
music and fitted herself for the triumphs
that attended her later career. Nine. Ne
vada is not only an American; but she IS
westerner as we'll; and she has always
been tremendously popular in the west.

MINNEAPOLIS ENTERPRISE
Largest Cash Order in the History
of Piano Trade,' Says Mu-
steal Courier

The carload lot" sinks into insig-
nificance before the giant order received
by George P. Bent for Crown pianos
early this week. There was time when
pianos were sold one at a shipment;
finally came the big demand indicated by
the carload lot.'' Even the train
load" was talked about, but only in fun,
until this week as"Crown'' order brought
the term from fiction into fact.
To be exact, the mammoth Grown
piano order was for sixty carloads Of
pianos! That is statement to make one
stop for breath But it is a fact The
apolis to the factory at Washington bou-
levard and Sangamon street, Chicago
The concern that thus proved faith in
the powers of the Grown" pianos is Eos
ter & Waldo, OF the twin city named.
Minneapolis is a good piano town. A
rich and very wide awake community de-
ponds upon that city for its supplies, and
Foster &, Waldo have become so firmly
grounded that even the order for sixty
carloads of Grown 2ianos does not
seem to them as of special significance.
But viewed from the standpoint of the
eastern piano manufacturers, the order
Of Foster & Waldo rises to proportions
almost incom3reh ensible. And it is the
more noteworthy because of the assump-
ton that only the socalled commercial
piano can go in such quantities. But it
is not altogether price that actuates such
a house as Foster & Waldo. In the
case of "a piano such as the Grown
where quality is reinforced by energy and
rare skill in the art of promotion, there
are considerations in comparison with
which price is altogether secondary, even
if to be considered at ALL.
o a. ,o 1oI1 Hy1 4e rNSs
for placing the largest single cash order
for immediate shipment In the history of
the, piano trade. If any other order of
similar proportions has been entered by
any manufacturer of the better class of
pianos, we have overlooked it. In the
department of commercial pianos it is
known tx at os many as 5000 were or
dered Of an eastern maker at one time.
But that order was from big depart
ment house. We believe that the
Grown" order of Foster & Waldo is the
largest on record from an exclusively
piano house. And it is the greatest in
dorsem ent possible for the Grown" piano.

COLLAPSE OF DIRIGIBLE
BALLOON TODAY.

PARIS. Oct. 11.-De BradslSy, the aero
naut. and a companion were killed by fall
ing from a dirigible balloon today.
The balloon started from the aerostat-
ie station at Vaugiriard. suburb Of this
city. at 1855 a. m. on a trial trip. After
preliminary maneuvering with rope at
tachment, De Bradsky released the balloon
and proceeded southwark at a height or
800 or 900 feet
The prOpellers OF the machine appeared
10 work well. The rudder, however, was
not quite successful. At about 900 the
balloon had returned to above the point
OF departure and then II gradually mount
ed higher and higher until X disappeared
in the clouds.
The project OF police later received a
dispatch announcing the fall of the bal
loon near st. Denis, FIVE and half miles
from the center of Paris.
The accident occurred about $3.50. When
the balloon was above st. Aims, near st.
Denis. the ropes attaching the car 40 the
balloon broke from some unknown csUs'
and the car. with its occupants, De Brad
sky and his companion. were dashed &c

peared in the clouds.

De Bradsky and NORM were seen moving
about the car. Suddenly one OF the wire
ropes broke and then another gave way

meath IL. They were crushed, their legs
were broken ana ,heir faces bloody. but

at Grant park yesterday morning Ed
wards. the photographer. set up his came
"a in the deer paddock to get a view Of
the antelope herd. but through a combina-
ton of unique circumstances he had his
own picture taken instead by one Of the
antlered bucks in the paddock.
The photographer was taking some
views OF the animals for members Of
the park commission. He had photograph
ed the bears and after adjusting his tripod
in the deer paddock had inserted a plate
and pointed the lens toward a corner
where a park attendant was trying to
make the antelope herd look pretty for
their picture. A fawn that had been train
ed 10 take food from an attendants
hand approached the outfit and began
to sni1 about the legs OF the tripod. Ed
wards. fearing his outfit would be over
turned. dropped the little rubber bulb
from his hand ana left IT swinging near
the ground. Then he caught the fawn
about the neck and began to drag her
toward the corner where the other ami
mails were standing. moving directly in
front Of the lens as he tugged at the I'M
willing captive.
While he was in this act a young buck
approached the camera unnoticed by the
photographer. he animal shifted about
the strange looking instrument a moment
and then caught sight OF the little rubber
bulb swinging from the slender white
tube He mistook II for an apple and
bit IL. There was a click at the lens
Edwards heard IL and looked up in time
to see the antelope still chewing the bulb
-Darned IL he amt took my picture

He released the fawn and ran at the
buck.

sion. declared II was the finest and most
intelligent specimen Of antelope in cap
tivity.
NO other park in the world has a buck
that can take pictures he said.
An examination OF the plate exposed
by the antelope showed the dim outlines
OF the scene described. That the picture
was not clear enough TO reproduce is due
TO the fact that the lens was focused for
a distance OF about thirty feet. while
Edwards and the fawn were scarcely ten
feet from Il when the buck snapped the
button.
Cases were made against both men and
they will be tried before Recorder Broyles
this afternoon.
