WOTk III the SJdJo was LOT tne Ola
banking firm of Sweet & Miller as a
collector. Il am a little under the
weather with rheumatism" he says.
Have but little to say in regard to oil
inspection. I think the law needs
amending in regard to test for the BEN
eft of the consumer. I am pleased to
see the advancement made in Bis
marck; the general air Of prosperity
which seems to stick out to all points
of the compass; the fine sidewalks,
buildings, ETC., and Bismarck can
easily be classed as the third city in
the state.
The Coming Theatrical Event.
There is probably no Shakesperean
star now before the public who re-
allies more fully the best that is asso-
ciated by tradition with the portrayal
of the immortal bard's works, than
Charles B. Hanford. Mr.. Hanford was
under the tutelage of Americas great
est actor. Edwin Booth. 1t was Mr..
Booth who gave Mr.. Hanford his first
great opportunity. an opportunity of
which he speedily showed himself
worthy. Mr.. Booth cast him for Mark
Antony in the famous Booth and Bar.
rett revival of julius Caesar, and no
n exhibited greater pleasure in the
triumph of Mr.. HanfOrd than Booth
himself. Critics who have followed
Mr.. Hanford's work declare that he
has now reached the browning achieve
ment of his career, by his magnificent
work as Petrucio in The Tanning of
the Shrew." The appearance of Mr..
Hanford at the Mandan opera house
on Saturday. Feb. Z. is awaited with
great interest by the discriminating
play-goers of this city. Special train
to and from Mandan.
An Error Corrected-P. H. Burton,
who vas appointed special admins
traitor of the estate and guardian Of
the children of the late John r..
Gleason, of Wilton, who died at the
hospital recently, returned from Will
ton, where he had been looking after
matters connected with the settlement
of the estate yesterday. He says that
the report that gained circulation
through some of the Bismarck papers
that certain persons about the mines
had Incorporated the property and
misused the children of the deceased
was ChIi ely WlIlIOuL lOuIludJIOu, DuL
that on the contrary the people of
Wilton and Chaplin had exercised the
broadcast charity in looking after the
wants OF the children since the death
of the mother a year go, and of the
father, which occurred but recently.
He speaks in the highest terms of the
iberality of the people there in not
only coming for the children. but in
raising a liberal purse with which to
defray the hospital expenses of the
, father.
