TRACY TO ORGANIZE
THEATRICAL CIRCUIT.

A. w. Tracy, the big advance
man for the Crows, is contem-
plating organizing a Theatrical
Circuit for North Dakota en-
bracing about 100 of the better
towns. Mr.. Tracy is acquainted
with nearly every opera house
manager in the state, and knows
also the companies that are play
ing thru the state. For this
reason, he will be able to weed
out the poorer companies, giving
the people of the circuit only the
better class of attractions. He
intends cooperating with the
eastern circuits and in this man
ner, expects to be able to play
many of the larger companies
which have hsretofore played at
Grand Forks, Fargo, Jamestown,
Bismarck, on their way to the
coast. Mr.. Tracy believes that
he will be able to swing those
companies on the Great North
ern, playing them at such towns
as Devils Lake, Cando, Botti-
neau, Minot, and at Williston,
where big opera house will
soon be built.
Mr.. Tracy will make Minot his
headquarters, and he will re-
main at the head of the Crows
for this season anyway. He will
handle real estate in connect on
with the circuit. The propc 81
ton is very likely to 60 thru.
There is no man in the state
better fitted to carry it thru to
success than Mr.. Tracy.

MURPHY PUTTING UP GOOD DEFENSE

himself was accused of pocket.
ing the road tax and was threat.
ened with prosecution by Assis-
tant States Attorney Green.
While every effort is being
made by the court and the at
torneys on both sides to hurry
the case to it's conclusion az
rapidly as possible, it is not
likely that the state will have
rested much before the middle OF
next week.
Mrs. Murphy, wife OF the accus.
ed, was in the court room the
greater part OF yesterday after
noon and was attending the
hearing all day Thursday.

County Treasurer Mitchell re-
turned from Fargo where he at
tended the Murphy trial several
davs. Mr.. Mitchell said the at
torneys were fighting for all they
were worth on both sides. The
state is putting up a good fight.
but the defense is putting up a
better fight than it did the last
time, it is said. Several of the
states best witnesses have testi-
fed, among whom are VIM.
Crowder and Harry Hardy of
Ross, two of the former Road
overseers.
Crowder testified that Murphy
had given him two ten dollar
bills in Murphy's Office to quiet
the matter when Crowder learn
ed that his name had been sign
ed to the road receipts. Crowder
says that he took the money to
the Office Of States Attorney Nc
Gee Immediately, where they
were given to Mr.. McGee and
marked. These bills were intro

Hardy claimed that his name
had been forged to a road re-
ceipt for $245.05 and that Muir
ply, to make good, had brot to
Greene's Office and placed before
Mr.. Hardy $245 to cover: the
amount.
The defense dwelt upon the
character of the business Mr..
Hardy once conducted in Minot,
that of running a pool room and
tried to hint that Hardy might
have been guilty Of blind-pig-
ging.
The defense to-day scored sew
eral good points. The Fargo
Forum has the following to say
of the trial:
Witnesses who testified in the
Murphy trial Thursday in behalf
Of the safe were the road over
seers Of the different townships
in Ward county where similar al
legged forgeries Of road tax re-
ceipts were found to exist.
In the beginning of the hear
ing of this case, like at the for
mer trial, Judge Pollock allowed
the state to introduce in evidence
the several other transactions of
a similar nature which were dis
covered in the other townships
of Ward county and which could
all be tried within the specific in
formation against Major Murphy.
The first witness called in the
morning was F. H. Slatky, road
overseer in Minot. Mr.. Slatky
on direct examination testified
that during the year Of 1904 Ma

filled out a receipt for $50. 1t
