Some good friend in Bismarck sent us
a circular this week that for few min
utes unsettled our nerve to consider
able degree, and we thought that with
the assistance of Marshal Akers, who is
one of the best local detectives, we might
share the prize. The circular read as
follows: ''S400 reward, John Young, true
name, Joseph Wabrun;" Then followed
a description of the man and that he had
escaped from the penitentiary on the 21st
of August. Photographs giving different
views of the man accompanied the cir
cular. To our disappointment notation
was found in the corner stating: Ere.
captured at Braddock on Sept. 5th.'

Drama "Hmertca" Shows
Manp Sttrrin6 Scenes
Performance by Militiamen Is
Opened at the DeWev.

OAKLAND, May Some of the most
appropriate and patriotic features of the
celebration ofNMemorial day in this city
was the opening production of the great
spectacular drama America" which
was presented at the Dewey Theater this
evening under the auspices and for the
benefit Of Company A, National Guard of
California
For several months the members Of
the company have been preparing for the
presentation of the great historical spec
tacle. The rehearsals have been under
the direction OF one OF the best known
theatrical managers in the country. The
play is complete portrayal of the great
events in the history of the United States
from the landing of the Pilgrims at PIv
mouth Rock to the present day.
All OF the scenery used in the produc-
ton is entirely new, and was speciaIIv
prepared. The costumes are also new and
historically correct in every detail.
One of the strongest features of tbe
spectacular performance is the scene In
which is shown the army of Washington
in its winter quarters at Morristown and
Valley Forge. So accurately are the suf-
ferings and patience of the winners of
Americas independence portrayed that
the spectator forgets for the moment thai
he sees merely the mimic life of the
stage.
SO it is with all the scenes of the great
play. which in itself is almost a com

Alexander As recently as last Friday
Cromwell felt confident that he had re-
stored harmony and that an agreement
between Alexander and Hyde had been
reached. At the last moment, however,
Cromwell ana those ~AY sls.. O..n
working with him for peace saw ali
their work go for naught. Hyde would
not agree to certain naturalization
plans that Alexander demanded as the
price Of peace. Hyde would not surren-
der the power of control which his
stock holdings give him and would not
listen to any other naturalization
scheme other than that to which he had
previously acquiesced.

ent cemeteries, strewing of flowers upon
the graves Of men who participated in
the Civil War, orations, martial music
and songs marked Memorial day in the
national capital. There are many points
about the city where soldiers are buried,
and none of the graves were neglected
The Arlington National Cemetery, where
not only thousands of enlisted men are
buried, but where lie the remains of
many prominent officers, was the prin-
cipal point of interest. Here Senator Jo-
seph b. Foraker of Ohio, a soldier of the
Civil War, delivered a patriotic address.
An interesting feature Of the ceremonies
at Arlington was a tribute from Cuba
to the dead of the Spanish war. Senior
Rivero, Charge d 'Affaires, accompanied
by all the members of the Spanish lega-
ton, went to the cemetery and placed a
wreath upon the monument which marks
the graves of the sailors of the Maine
and also decorated the graves of soldiers
who fell during the Spanish war.

Tonight. the board Of directors Will ar

So far as could be learned, the report

of the committees labors- On the
strength of the report the board or d.
rectors is expected 10 adopt resolutions
that will contain recommendations for
the future use of the Equitable, and in
these there may be a request for resig-
nations. 1t may be deemed wise by the
directors to request that Alexander and
TarbelI both relinquish their places in
the effort to restore harmony. Hyde
may also be asked to retire from active
participation in the business
