Mr.. and Mrs. Anil Christianson are
the proud parents of a big baby boy,
born to them on Sunday morning last.
Mrs. A. M. Gilbert returned on Mon
day from Albert Lea, Minn., where she
had been enjoying visit with relatives
and friends for several weeks past.
We understand that within the next
two or three weeks large number of
people from Bowbells and vicinity will

purpose of ''making good" on their
homesteads over there. Among those
whose names have been mentioned are
Robt and Norman Dilworth, Ed. Even
son, Jim McMillen and Bert Stevens.
"What are you laughing at?" we
said to a fellow this morning, with a
broad grin on his face, so broad that it
made the top of his head look like an
island surrounded by mouth. "What in

of 20 cents the dozen for their output,
the man who Wrestles with the bessie
and teaches the calves to suck, who has
a goodly flock of hen fruit producers, is
indeed in luck. Prices for these indis-
pensable commodities have kept to the
front this season and demanded better
prices than ever before. But they're
worth it, else people wouldn't buy them.
Roxy Quill, who about twenty years
ago killed his partner by shooting him
while the latter was dealing out a hand
at poker game then in progress at q
resort in Minot, reappeared in that city
this week after an absence of nearly
twenty years and was pointed out on
the street to The Tribune last Monday
by Judge Murray, who assisted in
Roxy's arrest when the killing was
done. After his arrest he was taken
to Burlington and incarcerated in an
improvised Jail, from which he made
good his escape during the following
night and was at liberty for two years,
when he was apprehended in Washing
ton and returned to Minot, where he
was tried. convicted and sentenced to
four years in the pen. After his re-
lease he wandered west and we UNDER
stand has been doing the mining camps
ever since till his temperance at Mi

we'll remembers the killing by Quill.
and if our memory serves US no great
effort was made to encompass his re-
arrest after he had made his escape
from the bamboo Jail at Burlington,
the fact still being pretty clearly es-
tablished in our minds that at that time
Minot was not q strictly law and order
town, and the handful that held down
the '.camp" simply felt that the COM
munity were well rid of Roxy-little
matter where he fetched up. Marshall
Mcclure informed US that soon after
his arrival in town last Monday, Quill
sought q job ''dealin' stud" in one of
the gambling dives, but the younger
element refused to sit in, fearing
Roxy's evil disposition.

Miss Maud Robson, after an absence
of nearly two years, arrived home from
Janesville, Wis.,, on Tuesday.
The Tribune has ''preached" at
length for the past seven years of the
beauties of the town of Bowbells and
the productiveness of the magnificent
tributary country, so that it is now
thoroughly we'll known the world over
and the subject is worn threadbare: 1t
is still a good theme to fill up on, how
ever, when we're lacking in suthin' to
fill space.
The farmers in the hills country, south
of town, have been able to render a
splendid account of their stewardship
this season, so far as the yeild Of vari-
Gus varieties Of grain goes. The Tribune
has already recorded several big yields
from that part of the Bowbells country.
and now comes A. Ward with report of
his wheat yield at Is bushels of No. l
grain per acre. and Anton Nelson with
q bushels per acre. From 20 acres of
oats, sown the second day of June. Mr..
Ward threshed 1910 bushels extra
ordinary yield when one considers the
lateness Of the sowing.

THE JAMESTOWN EXPOSE
TION

The Jamestown Exposition Com
pany Is anxious 10 adopt some official
emblem which will suggest to any
imaginative person the subject OF their
exposition.
jamestown was the first English
speaking settlement in America. II
might be called the parent OF the col
onies. =
From this first village others grew
until there was real colony OF Vlr-
pinia instead of a nominal one.
The Atlantic Coast east OF the Alle-
ghanies was dotted with Villages n
filed with colonies which grew to such
proportions that, combined, they were
able to overthrow the domination OF
England in l776.
Some pictorial idea embodying the
suggest on of a focal point, a nest, or q
place of beginning, may make very
appropriate and suitable emblem.
There are a number of incidents
which occurred in the early history OF
Virginia which might be worthy OF
illustration in connection with Inc
above thought.
Nothing is left of Jamestown but
the old tower which formerly surmoun-
ted the entrance to the first Episcopal
Church built in America.
At one time jamestown was q timely
stockaded village capable of sustaining
the shock of savage attack. Ihese
stockades are blu. memories, but they
were once important facts.
At jamestown was held the nrsl
legislature Assembly ever selected by
popular suffrage in any colony. !nls
was the forerunner to our state leglsla'
lures and national congress. This
thought might be incorporated.
From Virginia adventurous pioneers
crossed the Appalachian Mountains,
first settling the valleys beteen the
Blue Ridge and Alleghenies, and pro-
ceeding westward, settled the Cls-Mls-
sissippian States.
The men who first made this pilgrl-
mage were the knights of the Golden
Horse Shoe, the only purely American
Order of Knighthood.
The Revolutionary War was con.
cluded in Virginia by the Battle OF
Yorktown. The Civil Wal period il
largely q record of Virginia events.
Of course more modern history
would not be az appropriate in this de-
vice as some tho ught connected with
the seventeenth century:
The jamestown Exposition Com
pany is offering $4,000 to the artist or
Imaginative amateur who can out OF
inner consciousness creates thought
which will subserve their purpose and
will typify the beginning Of q nation.

Gentlemen
It's sound sense that we tell you.
It will cost less dollars to paint your
church with L. & M. Paint, because
more painting is done with one gallon
of T.. & M. than with two gallons oil

hardens the L. & M. White Lead and
makes the l.. & M. Paint wear like

DANOEL|ON WINE
LABELED POISON
TWO IMBIBERS ARE STRICKEN
WITH NAUSEA
Auctioneer and Householder Made
Deathly Sick by Drinking From
Bottle With Skull and Cross.
bone Sucker

William Rivers and William Best
narrowly escaped death from drinking
dandelion wine at the home of the lat
ter at 2O9 East Fourteenth street yes
terday afternoon.
Rivers, who lives at 1907 West Thir-
ty-ninth street and is an auctioneer in
the employ of Rhoades, Reed &
Rhoades, auctioneers at 100 South
Spring street, was at the Best resi-
dence assisting in arranging the house
hold effects in such a way that the
auction might proceed smoothly
Rivers and Best, according to a
statement made by Rivers to Herald
representative last night, were in the
kitchen when Best produced a bottle
and said: Here is something that
will surprise YOU
I'VE had been laughing and joking"
said Mr.. Rivers, in telling of the af-
fair. Il thought Best was joshing and
asked him what he had. It's dande-
lion wine and it's simply fine he said
I took a wee nip of the stuff, but
it didn't taste particularly good to me
and handed the bottle back to Best,
who took a swig, and then 1 caught
glimpse of the bottle.
1T was labeled deadly poison
Says 1t Was Liquid Fire
''I snatched the bottle and showed
the label to Best, but he tried to re-
assure me. He said his wife had put
that label on there for josh.
Il wanted to accept his explanation,
but In few seconds we were both
deathly sick I don't believe drank
more than a spoonful of the stuff and
L am glad didn't.
BEST was almost as sick as 1 was,
but 1 think he recovered quicker than
I did. My brother took me to DR..
Scholl and he attended me. l don't
know what he gave me, but it brought
up the wine and everything else and
then my brother brought me home.
BEST has sold out and is going to
Chicago. I'll bet he doesn't take any
dandelion wine with him. The grape
If he gets thirsty-will probably be
good enough for him hereafter.
mo more dandelion wine for mine.
I'd rather drink chained lightning.
1.-The next fellow that gets me to
drink out of a bottle will have to run
faster than can. No, sir, i've had
mine.
THE best thing 1 have got hold of
since I drank that liquid fire is this
cracked ice. It's the only thing thai
cools me off inside"
DR.. Albert j. Scholl of 1886 South
Main street, who attended Mr.. Rivers,
said:
rivers was evidently mildly poiS-
oned in some manner. He said he had
drank little dandelion wine. / sim
ply prescribed an emetic and he was
considerably nauseated. | made no
analysis of the chyle as he apparently
recovered and was at once out of dam
ger He was taken to his home from
here and as 1 have not heard from
him 1 believe he is all right. 1 don't
believe any poison had been put in the
wine. The label probably went a long
ways toward their nausea"

PROBLEM PLAY
SCORES SUCCESS
MISS ROBERTS IN MODERN
DRAMA PLEASES
Mason Audience Appreciates the Good
Points In "The Strength Of the
Weak"--Portrays LovsbIe
Character

II the verdict Of a Los Angeles audi
ence at the Mason counts for anything,
Florence Roberts and The Strength Of
the Weak" are destined to a long life
of success.
The play written by a hitherto UNI
known playwright, Alice M. Smith,
abounds in good philosophy and strik-
ing situations, while the dialogue Is
clever with crisp sort of cleverness
that is charming. The play is long, and
were it not for the brightness of the
dialogue it might become tiresome.
1t is rich in heart interest and this
Florence Roberts brings out in a sim
pie, natural way which is most effec-
tice.
Florence Roberts has long been
known to Los Angeles playgoers, but
never has she been seen to such ad-
vantage as last night.
Scene, Woman's College
The curtain rises on a class-day
spread in the rooms of the principal
character, who is that day graduating
from a woman's college.
The setting. a college girls room with
pennants and the usual furnishings of
the college girls apartments, is at
tractive and the characters are just
such men and women as may be found
at any commencement.
The principal character, portrayed by
Miss Roberts, is an orphan whose
education has been provided by an UNI
scrupulous guardian in love with his
ward. In the years at college the girl
has become a woman and has found
that she has a soul. On the day of her
graduation she publishes a book
anonymously. which reflects certain
phases of her character and her life
with her guardian. Through this book
she reveals to the man she loves the
fact that she has sinned and demands
to know if there is no PREPARATION for
woman.
From the final triumph of his love
over all obstacles and her determina-
tion to make reparation to God and
the world the play gets it's name, 1.-THE
Strength Of the Weak"
Ends in Suicide
The tragic ending comes when the
girl learns that her guardian is the
father of the man she loves and to
save her lover from the knowledge
she shoots herself
The play is in four acts and the third
act is wonderful piece of work. In
this Florence Roberts is seen at the
height of her power. Her interpreted
ton of the part of Pauline Darcy is
full of fine touches that reveal her
power as an actress. The woman she
pictures is a strong and lovable wom-
an, one who has sinned and been sinned
against, but rises with determination
to blot it out with a life above re-
proach.
Miss Roberts is not essentially orig
inal and might even be accused of
tendency to copy Mrs. Fiske, but she
has other qualities which more than
make UP for this
The terrible struggles of a woman
capable of all the love a human soul
can feel and yet bound down by the
most hopeless weight the soul of
woman can know are portrayed with
a delicacy and strength which is won
derful.
Simplicity Her Charm
Her simplicity is her chief charm
and there is an utter absence of any
thing which looks like acting in most
of her strongest scenes.
