From Wednesdays Daily.
Seventy-hve persons, twenty OF
whom have never taught school, were
examined for teachers certificates by
the county superintendent, Miss Emma
Nye yesterday and today at
the Adams school, The most
notable thing about the ex-
animation Is the fact that twenty new
ones, graduates Of the high school and
others who have never had q taste of
school teaching, were among the num-
Der who took the ten subjects
of the exam" One Of this twenty was
young man, member Of the 1906
graduating class Of the Ottumwa high
school. The average age Of the TWEEN
ty new applicants is eighteen years.
The number to be examined tomorrow
Is expected to slightly exceed that Of
today.
Salaries May increase.
Special Inducements IN the way Of in
creased salary for rural teachers are
offered those who undergo exarnina-
tions for teachers certihcates. While
1t is necessary for all teachers to take
these examinations, SOME OF them who
hold first class certificates, are not re-
quired to again demonstrate their
knowledge Of the various subjects
studied. In recognition Of the abilities
Of rural school teachers, County Super.
intendent Nye is endeavoring to in
crease their monthly compensation. AT
present there Is only one township In
the county that pays any teacher less
than $50 per month, but there are 9th.

the show is a new one in the burlesque
world, the company has leaped anto the
front rank of this class Of entertain
ment. With phalanx of clever come
dams, lovely, vivacious girls, the mag
nifcent scenery and joyous music COM
bine to reveal the merry merits of the
creation. The personnel Of the company
is excellent and includes only vaudeville
and burlesque artists Of the highest
class.
The opening part, g A Misftable In
surance Company is travesty on the
recent scandals in the, insurance world.
1" A Trip to the Hippodrome brings
the performance to close. In this is
shown an exact reproduction Of the
famous amusement enterprise of New
ten around the efforts of soubrette

to sell the Hippodrome to a "rube. =
Both first part and burlesque abound in
lively numbers that show off the chorus,
but special mention may be made of a
patriotic tableau called tThe Spirit of

The vaudeville acts are as follows:

ton this season in minneapolis, at Our
Saviour's Norwegian Lutheran church
next Friday evening. It will be given
by the Choral society of-the church,
which is one of the most important
church choirs in the city, it's member
ship being limited to 100 voices, and
it always having waiting list. The
choir is under the direction Of Jacob
L. Hjort, and is doing fine work.
The soloists engaged for this oc-
casion, are Miss Marie Hovey, soprano;
Miss Eleanora Olson of Chicago, con
tralto; Jacob i. Hjort, tenor; Harry
E. Phillips, barytone, and Eugene
Skaaden, organist. Both Miss Hovey
and Miss Olson have been heard here.
The former has an unusually sweet
voice, which has been under splendid
training. The latter appeared at the
Auditorium last summer at the Swedish
festival, and created distinctly good
impression. With such capable quar-
tet of soloists and a chorus so thoroly
drilled, the Messiah ought to re-
ceive a fine Interpretation.

thankful that Calve cam

NAy thankful that Calve came
to Minneapolis and finally
sang, and that she has redeemed herself
in the minds of the Minneapolis public .
The throat trouble was genuine, and her
desire to sing here was also genuine
That she sang gloriously was the unanl-
nous opinion of all who heard her.
In like manner is it meet to give
thanks for the Symphony orchestra,
and of course to its hackers, who have
made it possible for Minneapolis to
enjoy the best there is in music. Each
concert adds to the strength of the
position it has secured in the minds
and hearts Of Minneapolis people. Then,
too, thru it's efforts Minneapolis is per-
mitted to hear the best Of artists under
the best of circumstances. Reisenauer
came. So did Campanari. So will
others. ..-r
While the musical world will rest
this week, it is but to take 'Efrest

with such excellent soloists is an under
taking deserving of all support.

UNIQUE
Continuous Vaudeville

The Rialto Comedy Four, high-class
entertainers who have won renown on
the eastern vaudeville circuit, have
been selected by Manager Elliott to
head his list Of attractions at the
Unique all Of this week. The "Four"
are heralded as AL comedians, and their
act is said to embody a fund of up
roarous amusement. The Rialtos are
singers, dancers, burlesquers and act
.ors, and they do a little Of everything
well in their efforts to please.
A sketch in lighter vein will be Of
fered by Gillihan and Rran, two clever
performers, who have an amusing hodge
podge Of nonsense which is warranted to
keep an audience interested.
For variety, Ted E. Box, the we'll
known English entertainer, will beg a
dozen minutes of the audience g time,
and If he is not in demand at the expira
tion of the period he will be the most
surprised man in the house. Box is
unique in his methods, and his style has
never been successfully duplicated. An
other funny fellow is Frank Burt, the
equilibrist, who can balance on his cal
when conditions are favorable. Burt
is comedian as well as a comical man
Of muscle, and some of his stunts are
said to be "excruciating.'
A frst-class musical act, combining
many elements of novelty, will b
offered by Field and Hanson, who in ad
dition to being legitimate music maker!
on a score Of instruments, have picked
up a fund Of entertaining "business'
in order to prevent monotony. This il
one Of the most enjoyable features o.
the bill, which will be adorned with new
illustrated songs by Harold BeckroV
and Herman La Fleur.
May Nelson, the Irish girl, who sing
odd songs and does a "killing' mono

LYCEUM BY Right Of
6 SUord. =

A happy crowd is expected at, the
Lyceum theater today to witness the re-
dedication Of the old playhouse. The
occasion of the return of the Lyceum
to stock has caused great rejoicing
among employees and that large ellen
tele which has for years regarded the
playhouse as it's family theater.. Every
one remembers the disappointment of
the public over the attempt to engraft
vaudeville performances upon the Ly-
ceum g boards, and how the manage
ment, eager to please, perceived the
wisdom of giving that public what it
wanted in the way of attractions. What
was wanted and what will be insis-
tently demanded is frst-class standard
plays, new one every week, presented
by capable company. This Manager
i. G. Speers confidently claims to have
accomplished in the engagement Of the
Ralph Stuart Stock company Of New
York;
The new players will open the theate1
presentation of "By Right of Sword,
notable romantic comedy drama which
has won the favor of The public fol
years. It has a typical young American
thirsting for adventures.
Mr.. Stuart will be, supported BY
Lewis Stone, formerly "a great fayorite
with Lyceum audiences, and an excel
lent company, including Luke CONFESS
Frederick Scott, McClella1 Plowman
George Gilday; Frank Garfield, Waite,
wager, Mabel Wright, Maude Marshall
Mayme Watson, Charles Rowan, Aubrey
lBeattie, Daniel E. Hanlon, William
Boyd, Laura E. Lang, Sarah Whitford
Jane Farrell and Nellie lamar.
The Lyceum, which has been close'
for few weeks, has been in the hand
Of decorators, painters and furnishers
and when it's doors are thrown open thi
afternoon it will show as one of tn
handsomest theaters Of the northwest.
Manager Speers has many pretty SUI
prises to be announced later.

ORPHEUM

The most wonderful trained horse in
the world is the Cossack stallion,
Emir, who comes to the Orpheum next
week to exploit the possession of ex-
traordinary musical talent. He is the
only horse in the world who can "play
horn," and among his accomplish
ments is sort of four-foot jigy during
which he keeps up a melody with a
chime of bells. He promises to be a
sensation.
The second big feature of the bill
will be the seventeen Pekin Zouaves,

world, whose complicated and rapidly
executed evolutions, and perfection in
