"a Royal Slave"

The large number of strikingly
handsome gowns worn in the produc-
ton of "A Royal Slave" which will
be seen at the Grand Opera House
next Saturday. is the occasion of much
comment in every city where the
play has been seen this season. It is
Interesting to hear the gasps of ad.
miration and envy with which the la.
dies of the audience invariably greet
each entrance of the women upon the
stage.
Miss Eunice Murdoch, as the
Countess Inez, carries of the honors
in this matter of sumptuous costum.
ing She appears in six handsome
gowns, each one a triumph of the
tailor's art. The climax is reached in
the last act, when she appears in a
tight-ftting gown of black velvet,
displaying her magnificent figure to
admirable advantage, while novel
girdle in the form of monster twin.
ing serpent. with its head protruding
above the bodice of the gown in front
and its length encircling the waist
and depending at the side OF the skirt,
causes the masculine portion of the
audience to sit up and take notice.
The body Of the serpent is literally
covered with spangles. five thousand
in number. With the bright lights
Eof the theater reflected from these
glittering,. quivering, vibrant spangles
the sight is not soon forgotten.
Little Fairy, as Annette the dane.
ing girl. is likewise we'll supplied
with gorgeous gowns, appearing In a
different one in each act. 1t is in.
teresting to note that each of Fairy's
dresses is covered with spangles, al.
ways in harmonious keeping with
the color of the gown. AS she wears
one of these bespangled, Respondent
gowns when she gives the Spanish
dance, which is one of the features
of the play, the effect can be easily
imagined.
The other members of the company
are all appropriately and richly
CARRIED. Inasmuch as the play deals
with royal family in the days of
Castilian magnificence at Emperor
Maximilian's court, 1t can be under
stood that the costuming of the pro.
duction is one of the most important
features.

Conference in 1909; he retired from eff.
fective relations in 1885. and died in

1t is a remarkable fact that he was

the esteem In which he, was held that
he was spoken of for the ofIice of

Can 1t be Possible?

The Watertown Times says: Geo.
H. Chase, rural route inspector, was
home over Sunday. To a Times re-
porter, Mr.. Chase gave out some very
interesting information. Says that at
the present time on the eastern tier OF
counties from the Missouri river to the
north line of Brookings county there
is not one farmer who is over one and
a half miles from a rural route. In
speaking of the enormous expense OF
carrying the U. s. mails he states that
it was not generally known that the
government, on many lines OF road,
paid enough for the carrying of mails
to pay the entire running expense Of
the entire train. 1t strikes the writer
that this is a strong argument in favor
OF Uncle Sam owning his own engines
and other fixtures.
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1905-12-21

The B~rookings Press is in favor OF
having the republicans in their next
state convention assembled declare in
favor of submitting IL primary law to
the people of the state. That's what
the last republican convention should
have declared for.-PubliC Opinion.
That is what the people by petition
demanded, but there were those Who
thought the people didn't need an ice
cream soda and instead prescribed an
emetic. 1t is not sufficient to say that
''the point against it was that 1t was
democratic doctrine the democrats
having declared for it in their state
convention" because everybody knows
that excuse is too fiimsy to be con-
sidered. Don't work on the principle
that a poor excuse is better than none.

Proper Pride

From Daily Argus-Leader, Deem
Der 8, 1905. There are times when it is
in good taste for a newspaper to con-
graduate itself on it's accomplishments,
because nothing tells of the prosperity
of a community so we'll as does the
story Of its newspaper. A city that
has good newspapers-papers that are
clean and healthful, morally, and are
making money for the owners, can be
"no mean city, in any sense.
They speak as nothing else a OF
the progressiveness Of the merchants
and the intelligence of the citizen
ship. The west and especially the
northwest has always been noted for
the progressiveness of the press.
Newspaper men have done "stunts''
out here that would not be tn ught of
nearer the rising sun. Towns small
IN comparison with their eastern Sis
tiers, are printing papers which in size
and editorial ability would do credit
to tc WINS that have as much population
as the whole district in which the
western paper circulates, and some
times as much as the whole state in
which the western paper is published.
We could point to many instances
OF this kind with which our readers are
familiar, but we will at this time stop

City and County Hospital Training School
For Nurses

The new residence for nurses at the
City & County Hospital is practically
comp leted.
1t is undoubtedly the most perfectly
appointed and equipped building of
it's kind in the west.
Its completion enables the author
tiles to extend the training facilities of
the Hospital to a larger number of
pupils than it has heretofore been able
to accommodate.
1t is the largest General Hospital in
the Northwest, and if only because Of
its diversified service, caring for both
public and pay patients, it affords un.
usual attractions and efficiency for the
education Of trained nurses.
Applications for further information
should be addressed to Arthur b.
