The CROWS
The Popular Troupe Play Three Nights
in Bottineau.

The Popular Troupe Play Three Nights
in Bottineau.
There is something about the Crows
that is different from the ordinary
troupes which stop in the country
towns. One of the these noticeable
points of difference is the fact that
every member of the Crows is an
actor. Any one can dress up, 60 on
the stage and recite lines more less
dramatically, but 1t takes an actor to
do it naturally, to act part true to
the original character represented.
That is what makes the Crows so
popular. They select good, popualr
plays, and they put them on the stage
true to life nothing is over painted.
nothing left out. T..
When they come to town, 90 and
see them and you will not regret it.

ALBRIGHT
STEALS
A TEAM
Parolled from Reform School
Salem Boy Resumes
Evil Ways

Hugo ALBRIGHT, a 17-year-old boy
of this city, was arrested last even
ing by Sheriff Culver and Policeman
Busick, on charge of stealing a
team and buggy belonging to
YANKEES livery stable.
Young Albrecht was an inmate of
the state reform school until n
month ago, when he was paroled. He
was committed in July. 1905. for
forgery.
Young Albrecht, late Monday af-
ternoon rented a single rig OF c.
w. Yannke, stating that he wished to
go to Liberty and return. Upon
getting the rig he drove to the
south side of the Fades hill back of
Dan Frye's place unhitched the horse
from the buggy and tied the animal
TO an oak tree. The young cul-
prit then took the harness and came
back to town to sell his plunder.
leaving the horse. unblanketed in
the cold rain. He visited several
second hand stores and finally came
to ]. l.. Freeland's establishment on
State street He told the owner of
the store that he was a resident OF
Liberty aud that he had a set of
harness which he wished to sell.
His reasons for parting with II were
that he had sold his small horse and
had purchased larger animal.
therefore the harness was useless,
then also he needed a little change.
Now Jim is n good hearted fellow.
He readily comprehended that a
large horse could not be crammed
into the space that would exactly
be filled by small cuyaton. He
also saw n man without cash could
do nothing and as the goods looked
good to him. he ventured to ask the
price, and was Informed that SO
would make him the owner OF the
property. Jim not having the 50
handy offered $3.50, which was final
ly accepted. The two then parted,
Mr.. Freeland with the harness and
the unknown, who gave his name TO
"Jim" as Rank Ross with the s2,50.
During the night MIR. Frye heard
the chickering's OF a horse and yester-
day the horse and buggy were dis
covered and identified as the proper
ty OF C. w Yannke.
The animal which had stood In
the rain all night without anything
to eat was cared for and the officers
informed OF the theft. The harness
was located at Freelands and "Jlm"
says he does not care so much about
the S2.5O. but he would like TO hit
the fellow Just once for lying. while
Mr. Yannke Is sure that he could
teach the thief a lesson for leaving
his horse stand out all night.
Mr.. Yannke yesterday received a
telegram from the owner OF the rig
and horses In Candy describing the'
lost property which exactly answers
the description OF the unclaimed
horses and buggy at the feed yard.

nNsTRELs ARE COMING.
Rowers and Beach's Celebrated Fun
Makers Here Friday.

The Beach and Bowers minstrels
will be at the Grand opera house Fri
day night. The Fergus Falls Jour
ipal had the following to say:
Beach and Bowers minstrels
struck a popular chord at the Ly-
ceum last evening. The troupe was
greeted by a crowded house. and
gave the adudience just what It was
looking for, a bright, clean minstrel
show, with first class music, and
some unusually good specialties.
The program was not exactly the
stereotyped minstrel show program
throughout, but the features that
tend to give minstrel shows their un-
dying popularity were preserved and
others added. The orchestra was one
of the strongest musical organiza-
tions that has visited the city during
the winter. and the vocal numbers
we're exceptionally good. Jokes
we're not as numerous as In some
shows. nor were they as old, The
contortionist was a wonder, and the
trick bicyclist discounts the best of
circus performers. Beach and Bow
ers will probably visit this city later
in the season. and they can rest as
sured of another good house.
