PLAYED BY AMATEURS
"Irene Arnold Presented Pleasingly
by Lancashires.

"Irene Arnold was presented last
night at the Auditorium annex by the
Lancashire Dramatic club, local anna
teur organization which has made a
reputation in amateur dramatics. The
production was one Of the best in the
history Of the club, and a good-sized
audience applauded the work Of the
young actors and actresses.
Miss Anna Hanzlick, we'll known to
followers of the Lancashire club pro-
auctions, assumed the title role and did
creditable work. She handled the
dramatic climaxes easily and sustained
her reputation as one Of the cleverest
amateurs in the city. Eta Barry as
the village gossip, added materially to
the enjoyment Of the audience, and
CLARA Clauson as Bess played her part
with charm and originality.
Frank Rook,. who assumed the lead.
ing masculine role, handled his part
eonyincingly. Jeanette Lingreen gave
clever representation of the colored
servant. Others in the caste were P.
s. Hanzlick, Erwin Strickland, Harry
Sargent, Charles Tousely and Charles
Abraham. ...E

PURPLE TO SEEK
! A $500, 600 REFUND.
HE'LL AI.IEGE THAT. LICENSE
REBATES WE'RE ILLEGAL
Actions To Be Brought for Restitution
Against Persons Who Have Been
Paid Money by tho City on Unex-
PRED Portions Of Cancelled Saloon
Licenses.

Suits are now being prepared by q.
W. Purple which, if brought to sue
cessful termination, will force the Min
neapolis liquor interests to pay $780,
600 into the city treasury. g'ss9E2A 81
The suits are based upon 2 ruling Of
about year ago, wherein Judge John
Day Smith Of the district court, held
illegal the refund on liquor licenses
paid to owners when licenses were re-
voked. Since that time there have been
no refunds, and when an owner sold
his place Of business before the expira-
ton Of his license, he lost the refund.
Upon the premise that all of the re-
funds, which have been made in large
numbers in the past three years, were
illegal, Mr.. Purple holds that the
money so paid can be recovered. The
saloonkeeper, where there has been a re-
fund, will be made the defendant, but
the suit will in reality be. against any
brewing company which may. have
funds, and the company will probably
be made party defendant in each
case. =,
It is understood that the first case
to be taken up Is against certain
saloonkeeper who was backed by the
Birkhofer Brewing company. This will
be test case and will be taken to the
supreme court if necessary. Its deci-
sion will determine whether or not 9TH
ers Of the same nature will be taken
into court. If the court holds with
the plaintiff, then it is understood that
suits aggregating 100000 will be
brought.
Mr.. Purple has denied his connection
with the proposed litigation, but it is
known that he has been working upon
it and that, with the advice Of at least
one other local lawyer, he has prepared
Pleadings and mapped out the course Of
the entire litigation. ~.

MORE MONEY SOUGHT
FOR POST0FFICE SITE

More money for postonice site and
a building to cost not less than $780,.
900 is desired by the Minneapolis real
estate board. At the November meet
ing last night at the Commercial club,
s. s. Thorpe introduced resolution
embodying this request, with a recon-
mendation that the Minneapolis con-
gresham secure postponement of the
site selection. The purpose is to get a
site that will be more central and more
convenient than the present appropria-
ton of $350,0O0 will permit. Mr..
Thorpe said that the boards action
will be Of service to the Washington
authorities as showing the sentiment of
a LEADING organization with public in
terest at heart.
Q. L. Sawyer, manager Of the free
information bureau, suggested the for
nation Of a publicity club along the
lines of the Million club Of st. Louis,
which Is expected to increase the city g
growth. The matter will be discussed
at the next monthly meeting.
The board made up a deficiency Of
$3.50 in a recent appropriation for pub
lie purposes, which had been over
