DEVILS LAKE MrER-ocHAr, FRIDAY, MAY 81 1oo4

for TIVE I've years. In 1899 Senator
HansDTough mad q commission APP.
pointed, Of which Senator NJ cCumber
was chairman, which negotiated the
FIRST agreement with the Chippewas
for the opening of their lands ID
It is a father sing ular instance in
this connection that Senator Me-
Cumber not only negotiated the
agreement for the opening Of the
reservation, but twelve years later as
q member Of the committee on Indian
affairs Of the senate was able to enact
Legislation y carrying the treaty he
negotiated Into effect. Favorable
action was secured BY Senator Hans
brouugh in the senate on II this agree
mont on several occasions, but ii, fail
ed to pass in the house, where stub
born opposition developed against the
opening of the res alton. Six
hundred and forty acres were donated
to North Dakota for a park as a
memorial of the battle of White
Stone Hills. The settlers on the
abandoned Fort Abraham Lincoln
military reservation we're relieved Of
their obligation to pay the appraised
value of the lands, in addition to
living thereon the length of time
required under the homestead law.
A bill was passed validating proofs
taken before e. S. commissions.
outside Of the county in which the
land is located. The bill granting
thirty Thousand acres of land. to the
school of; forestry at Bottineau passed
the senate but did not get through the
house. AS result Of the introduc-
tion of the bill of Senator Hansbrough
for the appointment Of supervising
engineer Of construction the reclama
tion service seems to have bestired
itself to the extent of detailing a
special ngineer for work in North
Dakota and he will be assisted by a
corps Of engineers, photographers,
ETC., to Investigate and report on
the feasibility of irrigation projects
in the state. One project has already
been agreed upon, that along the
Yellowstone river, in which about
$4,000 acres in Mouth Dakota and
Montana can be irrigated. The
Devils Lake reservation was threwn
open to settlement and thereby a tract
of land brought under taxation and
a great number Of new settlers secured
for the state 49, 49, - ,.'z,' r -: .'
Such has been the record of
achievement of the North Dakota
delegation. Mention has been made
of the legislation secured through the
influence of the two senator's, but it
should be born in mind that every bill
which has become law for North
Dakota has been passed through the
house through the efforts of the two
congressman who have Teen tireless
and interchangeable in their work
and who have now returned to the
state to take much needed vacation
after their arduous duties here.
Senator McCumber has the unique
distinction of making more reports
before the senate than any other mem
or OF that body. During the session
he submitted $40 reports. This
means. that he considered $50 cases
pending before congress and prepar-
cd report on each case. The ma
Jority of these bills, of course, were
private uills, but this record has
never before been equslled and will
probably never be excelled.

BERNHARDr GOT THE MOON.

We had begun the full-dress rehear- sals. Tn the third act the scene was laid in a forest glade. Tn the middle of the stage was a huge rock upon which was Blanche (Croizette) kissing Savigny (Delaunay), who was SUD- posed to be my husband. I (Bertha de Savigny) had to arrive by little bridge over stream of water The glade was bathed in moonlight Croi- zette had just played her part and her kiss had been greeted with burst of applause This was rather daring 1n those days for the Comedie Franchise. But what have they not given there since then?
 Suddenly a fresh burst of applause was heard. Amusement could be read on many faces, and Perrin stood up terrified. was crossing the bridge, my pale face wild with grief and the ball wrap, which was intended to cov- CT my shoulders, dragged along, Just held by my limp fingers, while my arms were hanging down as though despair had deprived me of their use. I was bathed in the white light of the moon, and the effect, 1t seems, was deeply striking and impressive Sud- denly nasal, aggressive voice cried out: "One moon effect is enough. Turn it off for Mile Bernhardt."
 I sprang forward to the front of the stage. HExcuse me, M. Per rin," I exclaimed, "you have no right to take my moon away. The manu- script reads, "Berthe advances, pale conyulsed with emotion, the rays of the moon falling on her. I am pale and I am convinced. must have my moon"
 Tt Is impossiblep roared Perrin. Mile. Croizette's line. You love me, then" and her kiss must have this moonlight. She is playing the Sphinx which is the chief part in the play, and we must leave her the principal effect
 ''Very well, then; give Croizette Q brilliant moon and give me less bril- liant one.r I don't mind that, but must have my moon"
 All the artists and all the employees of the theater put their heads in at all the doorways and openings, both on the stage and in the house Itself. The "Croizettes'' and the Bernhard ists" began to comment on the discus sion.
 Octave Fueillet was appealed to, and he got up in his turn.
 'rI grant that Mile. Croizette is very beautiful in the moon effect. Mile Saral Bernhardt is ideal too, with her ray of moonlight. I want the moon, therefore, for them both. h."--Memoirs of Sarah Bernhardt in the Strand.

On Tuesday evening at Polls Mur ray and Mack will appear in the big international success "An English Daisy" This musical comedy has had two runs that speak well for its mer- its, one of ten weeks at the Globe the ater, Boston, and another of three months at the Casino, New York.
