New York: The Grafton Press.
A story of Washington society, especially
by a Washington writer. is one of the
most difficult of all forms of fiction to Law
before Washington public. If it is purely
fictitious the reader searches with unfet-
tered imagination for resemblances. If it
is founded upon fact those resemblances
obtrude nartiStic angles into the structure
of the story If it is only a thinly yelled
recital of happenings and delineation of
real characters it is necessarily judged by
according to the standard of what the
reader happens to know from other sources
of the events and the personages thus out
lined. OF the third class is this novel in
which the fiction is so attenuated in places
that the work becomes almost biographi-
cal Thus it is especially difficult of analy-
sis. 1t does not follow the normal lines of
novel creation, as indeed it could not while
adhering at all closely to fact. There are
some excellently written passages. some
highly dramatic and romantic episodes and
some easily distinguished portraits. 1t will
be interesting to most Of its local readers
chiefly because of it's suggestiveness

The Greatest Yet.

The Londale Theatre company
which has been holding the
boards in the opera house this
week, is unquestionably the
strongest dramatic organization
that has ever visited Minot.
Friday night, Of this week, the
great play OF ''Resurrection' will
be produced. This will be the
greatest production ever seen in
the west, and seats for this per-
formance can be had now. The
local management has arranged
for special train services on both
roads for the benefit Of outside
patrons. The largest audience
ever congregated in Jacobson's
opera house will be present on
this occasion, and it behooves
local patrons to secure their
seats early. The prices for this
performance will be IS cts, and

charge of tampering with one of

in this part of the state are in

Amidon evidently did what he
thought was for the best.
Sheriff Scofeld testified before
Judge Amidon that he met Ben
Jones, of Cando, at the hotel in
Grand Forks and states that
Jones asked him to go to aroom
with him to take = drink. Jones
asked Scofield if he was down on
the Murphy case too, and SEQ
field replied thath was not, that
he had brought q prisoner down.
He added that Murphy was a
good fellow and the case against
him was brought for political
purposes. It looked to Amidon
that Sheriff Scofield tried to in
fuence Juror Jones. We do not
believe that he attempted to do
any such Il thing here at Minot
but cannot answer for Amidon's
opinion. There is not a man in
Minot who considers the deal
Scotield got, a disgrace in any
way.
During Scofield's absence, the
office is being looked after by his
deputies and DR.. CroKat, the
coroner, who is acting Sheriff.
Upon his return to Minot, he will
take hold OF the Office and con-
duct it in the same capable man
