MANKATO'S BIG MUSICAL TREAT
"The School Girl to be Presented
Sunday Night.

Only a few days remain now until
the patrons of the Mankato Theatre
will have their first opportunity to see
''The School Grip, the musical play
with the long records in New Y ork and
London. There's no gainsaying, the
fact that the popular interest has been
fully aroused to the merits of this at
traction and an over-howing audience
is predicted. t..
The music of 1.-THE School Grip is
said to be so dainty, the scenery so
picturesque and the costumes SO ex-
clusively fashionable that the produc-
ton has few equals on the road today.
From the opening scene depicting the
convent and lawn at Plassy, nearParis,
to the final grand ball room scene,
everything presented here will be just
as it was presented for 400 nights in
London and $50 nights in New York
City.

operation to relieve his suffering when

CITY SCALES COST MUCH MONEY
Howe People Succeed in Placing
Contract.

There is a difference of opinion as
to whether the city has got value re-
ceived in the purchase of the scales for
public use or not. It seems that the
agents of the Howe and the Fairbanks
people were notified that there would
be a scale purchased and were asked
to give figures on them, not in the
nature of a bid but simply to see what
the cost of the article would possibly
be.
The Howe people sent man to az
range for the scale and the Fairbanks
people said they would have a man
here IT it was a competitive arrange
ment, as they were anxious to have the
scale placed with the city for the ad-
vertising they would get out of it, the
agents of the Fairbanks company said
they would have a man here and he
would be in a position to give the COM
mittee the lowest possible figures.
The Fairbanks man arrived and as
soon as the Howe man heard that he
was coming he got anxious to close the
deal on account of having to get out
of the city and the contract was made
while the Fairbanks man was on his
way from Kasota to this city, the re-
suit being that the city paid some sixty
odd dollars more for the scale than the
price made by the Fairbanks people.
The agent of the Fairbanks company
says that the committee exceeded their
rights by purchasing an article that
costs more than the city charter allows
to be expended without advertising for
bids, and he wasaon the point of serv.
ing an injunction to prohibit the com
mittee from buying, but was dissuaded
from this purpose.
AS to the merits of the two scales
one is as good as the other and by q
proper manipulating of the affair it is
possible the city could have been saved
some money, for either one of the com.
panies would have furnished the scale
for moderate sum because of the ad.
vertising they could get out of it.
The committee probably acted under
the advice of the city attorney in the
matter of the purchase and believed
they were doing all for the best. A
any rate the city should have a gooe
weighing arrangement at the COS
specified.

Tickets Will be Placed on Sale
Saturday, November 18th.

People OF New Ulm and vicinity have
been waiting for an entertainment at
Turner theatre that would come on a
week night of merit sufficient to attract,
and worthy of the patronage of all. In
the play that is coming on the 22d will
be found something that will not only
please but will instruct.
If half that may be read is true,
Gordon & Benefits latest production
is one of unusual beauty. It is gener-
ally conceded that the performances of
"A Royal Slave" were superior, but
there has been provided for 1.-THE Holy
City, dramatic establishment and
stage accessories of even more re-
markable magniticence. The powerful
story, voiced by those forming one Of
the largest and most talented cOmpa-
MES travelling, is so aided by allie
gorical, musical and pectacular effects
that aStOnlShment and delight is man
Tested in every mention of this play.
In the complete satisfaction that each
production OF this capable and praise
worthy management insures, past sue
cesSes are understood and future con-
hdence is inspired. To the lavish ex-
penditure necessary for the presenta-
ton of GA Royal Slave" theatrical
pessimists shook their wise heads and
predicted failure. The managers paid
their bills and banked their surplus.
The much greater expense attending
representations of 1.-The Holy City" is
met in sagacious belief that for the
drama loving public, nothing can be
too good. With always increasing
artistic endeavor, Messers. Gordon &
Bennett prove their commercial in.

Ihere IS not now, nor will there be
any second or third rate organization
OF this big success. The authors will
not have it. and Manager F. r. Com
stock has always adhered closely to
his policy of presenting on the road
the exact and entire production just as
presented in the metropolis of the
world. Thus it will be seen every as
surance sustains the statement that
this will be the one and only company
and the entire original production,
and every indication points to an en-
joyable occasion for theatre goers.
The play will be presented in Mankatc
on the 10Th of this month.

same purpose. One of these is lec-

1SS1-An Active Politician, But
Had Held Office But Once-Was a
Bachelor, But Leaves Relatives in

Last evening at o'clock Judge
John ]. Balleray died at st. Anthony's
hospital after an illness of two days.
Death was caused by a complication
of troubles brought on by alcoholism.
Relatives in New York have been
communicated with to ascertain their
wishes in regard to the funeral ar
rangements.
John ]. Balleray was a native of
Paterson, n. j., and at his death
was "a years of age. His early life
was spent in that city, and his edu-
cation partly secured from the
schools there. Later he attended the
college of St. Laurent at Montreal,
Canada, for several years, and in 1874
he graduated from the law course of
Columbia university of New York
city.
Judge Balleray came to Oregon in
1881, and for a time practiced his
profession in Portland. He then
moved to Baker City where he re-
mained two years and the rest of his
life was passed in Pendleton. His
first practice in this city was as a
member of the firm of Turner, Bal
ley & Balleray. Later this firm be-
came Bailey & Balleray. and then
Bailey, Balleray & Redfield, the lat
ter being C. E. Redfield of Heppner.
From 1897 until 1899 a partnership
existed between Judge Balleray and
T. g. HALEY. under the name of Bal
leray & HALEY, In 1909 the firm of
Balleray & McCourt was formed and
existed until dissolved by the death
Of the senior partner last night
In 1882 Judge Balleray was ap-
pointed circuit Judge for this district
as then composed. This position he
held during one term of four years.
In politics Judge Balleray was a re-
publican, and while he took an active
interest in political affairs, he held
few public offices.
The only known relatives of the
dead man are brother, George H.
Balleray, and a sister, Mrs Catherine
Pelgram, both of whom reside in
New York city. The former is a prac-
ticing physician and is also a gradu-

ate of Columbia university. The
judge was never married. He was a
member of the Portland lodge of Elks
No. 142, and should his funeral be
held there is is probable the local
lodge will have charge of the services.
AS a lawyer Judge Balleray was
recognized all over the state as a
man of exceptional ability. and he
participated in many hard-fought le-
gal battles before the supreme court
as well as in the circuit court. Dur
ing his long practice he acquired an
extensive library, and in this are
many works not of a legal nature.
One of his books, life of Napoleon
bears the autograph of James K.
Polk. The judge was a scholarly
man, being versed in Latin, Greek,
French and German. French was
spoken by him with the fluency OF
a Partisan. In the textbooks used at
Montreal his name is written Jean ].
