OPERA SAUL :
Beautiful Religious Opera
Presented at the Opera
House by Willow City
Talent.


tainment that has ever been given in
this city. 1t was the beautiful con-
tara, "Saul,' rendered by Willow
City talent. It takes sixty-tive peo-
pie to put this cantata on the stage
and to engage them to come to Botti-
mean was no small undertaking.
However, Alpha Chapter Of the East
|ern Star took the matter IN hand.
Several members of that order made
the necessary arrangements and got
the citizens interested in the matter.
Early in the week seats were being en-
gagged and by, W ednesday noon every
desirable seat was taken The result
was that the biggest audience that
was ever assembled in the Opera
House was present Wednesday even
Ling. And all present enjoyed treat
that they may not see in Bottineau
again for many years.
The oontata consists of five acts and
nine scenes. Neither time nor ex-
Lense had been spared in preparing CO.'S
tumes, which we're grand. The fol-
lowing is the cast of characters:
Saul, King of 1sraell-W Will E. Hol-
bein.
Samuel the Prophet-T. A. Ken
ming.
& David-T. o. Michael.
Jonathan-J. a. Reinhardt.
n Michal-Miss Minnie E. Hubert.
Abigale-Miss Jessie Sims.
Comforting Messenger Miss Fabiola
LaBerge
Herald-koy Foster.
High Priest Clifford Cook.
The guards, scribes, pages, soldiers,
witches and chorus of damsels make
up the sixty five people in the play.
All in the cast acquitted themselves
lably. T.. G.. Michael as David, Mr..
Kenning in the part Of Samuel and
Rev. Reinhardt in the role of jon
latham execnted taeif parts we'll, all of
them being blessed with good voices.
Miss LaBerge as the Comforting Mes
senger, was a favorite with the aud
ience. It is not at all disparaging to
the other members to say that Mr..
Holbein and Miss Hubert are worthy
Of especial mention for the excellent
manner in which they rendered their
respective parts. Mr.. Holbein
possesses a deep and sympathetic bass
voice and an attractive personality.
Miss Hubert 8 rich voice and winning
presence could not fail to win. the ad-
miration Of the audience, which was
with her from the very start of the
play. Her part was difficult one as
she led all the choruses and too~much
praise cannot be given her.
The accompanies were Mesdames
n s. Hager and E. J. Walsh and
they contributed no small part to the
success Of the entertainment. The re-
ceipts of the evening were 1926, which
was very fiattering. The Alpha Chap

misunderstanding with Il 3-year-old

which Mr.. Bear received several pain

Rockefeller's homes force several reflec
tons on me. Certainly they show his
cult Of the unpretentious. No one of
the three houses he occupies has any
claims to rank among the notable

Mr.. Rockefeller's favori.e home the

cheap ugliness-a great modern struc-
ture built in the first place as a sani-

compelled to do so should live in its
shadow. His city house is without
distinction, and there has never been

The daily life on his great estates is
studiously simple. Mr.. Rockefeller reg

trained to strictest economy. There is

TIE YhQUI INDIAN PROBLEM
The Mexican Governments Strange Piai
for It's Solution.

According to City of Mexico dis

solution of the problem of the pcrma.

1t consists of the colonization by cN-
Japanese soldiers of such lands in the
laqu country Nv were formerly held by
the tribe and were latterly couiiscaiCd
by the government The latter has, in
fact, entered into II contract with The
Imperial Japanese Colonization company
tor the purpose. Under the plan OF
colonization 1t is proposed to settle the
Japanese war veterans in groups in the
center of the agricultural lands in the
Iaqui valley, which they are expected
t. cultivate. The land is to be given
them, apparently on 10 other consrdera-
ton than that they shall police the
Iaqus and aid the Mexican government
to starve them out The Indians are to
be prevented from carrying produce ana
cattle out of the valleys to their noun
tain businesses. The government agrees
to furnish the colonists with arms and
ammunition About 700 eX-Jnpanese
soldiers and their families will be thus
settled in the NaauI country.
