A good performance Of "A Poor
Relation" was given before small
audience at the Turner Theatre Sun

worth in the famous Sol Smith Rus
sell part was highly satisfying.

Hauser of Sleepy Eye, Adolph Fred
erickson and Aug. Erickson of Spring
field, and Frank Clague of Lam berton.
DR.. Koch was interviewed by the
Minneapolis Tribune on the suicide OF
Judge Weber. He is reported as
having said: 81 thought at the time OF

such case, but I am satisfied that he
treated me fairly except in his charge.
That charge was the worst thing I have
ever heard in my life.''

B. C. Whitney, the big theatrica
manager who gave us the "Isle o
Spice,' will early in January favo1
New Ulm with another Of his success
full musical comedies, the "Show Girl. ,
The ''Show Girl" is made for pleasure
inasmuch as it is an entertainment o
the light, breezy and laughable kind
There is a plot, to be sure, but
doesn't require any great effort to un
ravel it, and it has only been con
structed to hang the numerous com
plications and specialties upon. Hild
Thomas is the bright, particula
Coincidence who carries the featur
part, and she is able seconded by
number of other very clever people
And then there is the ubiquitous choru
girl, !frolicsome and gaily clad, who's
maneuvers are the life of the play
The "Show Girl" is good.
