NYE STILL IN DOUBT
Doesn't Announce Candidacy to Nye Re-
publican Club.

Frank M. Nye was guest Of the Frank
Nye Republican club last evening at the
residence of John w. Bentley, 1928 Girard
avenue N. 1t was hoped that he would
take the occasion to make Official an
nouncement Of his candidacy for congress.
Mr. Nye was urged by those present to
become a candidate, and the clubs SUP
port was promised.
Mr. Nye stated that he was grateful for
the clubs expression Of confidence. He
had hoped, and still did, that the party
would be able to unite upon some one who
would be acceptable, and If it should decide
upon some one other than himself he
would be personally wei satisfied and even
pleased, but he would not shrink from any
public duty.
t Is probable that Mr.. Nye's official an
nouncement Of his intentions will be made
to this. the original Nye club of the city.
The club was organized recently with 100
members, with J. w. Bentley as presi-
dent. ts object Is to place Mr. Nye in

Create Musical Interest.

The plan would contemplate moth
ing that would tend to supplant any
form of musical entertainment for
which people are now accustomed to
pay. On the contrary those who have
studied the effect to widening peoples
range Of experience and knowledge
thru education agree that the prob
able result would be to create larger
class of patrons for the pay affairs.
1t would be entirely possible and de-
sirable that the concerts should take
the form of explanatory lectures and
illustrations of programs to be given
by the great musical organizations!
This is a plan that has been pursued
by local musical organizations in
many Of the smaller cities which bring
great $orchestras ,for occasional con-
certs and there is no, reason why the
Minneapolis, 4gsympopnyr Orchestra's
programs should notEabe studied in
advance in the samegway. ~ =.
The general opinion among the 7nlu-
sicians is that no great difficulty
would be encountered in securing suf-
ficient aid from musicians and enter
tainers to, carry on such programs
weekly thru the musical season., as

spirited and would gladly do their
share Of public educational work.
a.. Popular. Lectures, Too.
In order that the burden might not
rest too heavily on the musicians, and
to afford variety, it might be possible
to arrange lectures to fill part of the
dates. There are many travellers who
prepare really valuable accounts OF
their experiences for friends and small
circles, and who could readily be in
duced to share the valuable and inter-
esting experiences with the pubic, as
has been done in a limited way in the
Christian association churches and set

sity extension courses would also be
feasible and the opportunity for pre-
senting these to wide public would
be welcomed by a number of the uni.

more widely used. q "

that the city should have it, but tina,

DISTRICT COURT.

The Jury in the SHIRLEY Blind Pig
Case Promptly Bring in Verdict Of
"Not Guilty."
In the district curt this morning, the
case of the State VS.. Willard SHIRLEY
was submitted to a jury. This case
had been tried at two previous terms
Of court, each trial resulting in a dis
agreement This time the state was
seriously handicapped by Mr.. Bogue
having died since the last trial, he
having been an important witness.
Several of the witnesses too, had had
serious lapses of memory as to the
kind of liquor that they had drank
1t did not take the jury many minutes
to find a verdict Of not guilty.
Mr.. A. T. Patterson urged before the
jury was discharged, that the case in
volving the seizure of a car
load of alleged beer seized from the
500 railroad, be tried at this term.
States Attorney Register would not
agree to take up the case, and as Mr..
Patterson had not noticed the case, it
could not be forced for trial, so it
went over the term.
The court cases were then taken up.
The first case was that of Jos. A.
Wright vs. James Bennett and others.
This was an action to secure title to
land. A tax deed was involved, and
also the question as to whether or not
there had been forgery of a deed.
The plaintiffs claimed that the wrong
man had signed a deed purporting to
convey title.
The case was progressing when the
court took a noon recess.
This afternoon the case was con.
cluded, and the attorneys were given
ten days in which to submit briefs.
The case of Mrs. Slaughter VS.. the
city of Bismarck was the next case
on the calendar, and was commenced
at o'clock.

From the position of the remains it
seemed as if he had met death when
going from his Office into the inner

a flash.
