Commissioner f.. &C. Cooper has bought
from Frank Lawrence the very desir-
able lots just north of the home of
r. D. Hoskins and it is not at all I'M
likely that Mr.. Cooper will build on
them in the spring, but whether for a
residence for himself or for renting
purposes is problematical At any
rate 'sCoop'' cam rest assured that
Bismarck would welcome him and
Mrs. Cooper as residents and would
admire the good sense which might
prompt a change of location from the
Red river valley to the salubrious
climate of the Missouri Slope.
Exports to BIame-It is said\ Japan
is largely responsible for the car
shortage which is just now making 50
much trouble for the farmers, who
wish to dispose of their grain and for
the shippers generally in the north
west. The trade with Japan and
other Oriental countries has grown to
immense proportions since the close
of the Russo-Japanese war and guam
titles of goods are being shipped from
the south and east across the CONT
nent to Seattle and other Pacific coast
points where they are loaded on
steamers bound for the Land of the
Rising Sun.
John Griffith - The scenic and
costume requirements of Shake
speare's king Richard the Third" as
portrayed by John Griffith and his ex-
cellent company have been carefully

obtainable models. No Shakespearean
company in existence has any better.

equipments have been introduced,
that will add wierd and sensational
effects to the scenes requiring ANNA

audience will realize great deal more
than is usual, for the appeal ~toothe
senses covers all the points that ex-
perienced management can invent.

Third" Shakespeare's foremost trag-
edy role, will be here at Atheneum
this evening.
How About This?-A few days ago
Attorney Mockler and some Mclean
county friends were hunting deer
| hunting deer, remember-and now
comes the following story from that
region: "a report from the Kildeer
mountains, near Dickinson, says that
there is some variety of volcanic ac-
ton taking place in the depths of the
earth. A distinct. shock was felt one
day last week at the mountain and
for distance of fifteen miles in every
direction Deep grumblings of the
earth with occasional explosions can
be distinctly heard and those who live
near the base of the mountains are
divided In their opinions whether to
be scared or not. If the mountain
continues to show signs of having
toy volcano concealed under it's outer
covering, 1t is probable that people on
the foothills and prairies will seek
refuge by flight"
The Weather Clerk Was. Right
There was no mistake in the predic-
tions of the weather clerk yesterday
and as a result a very fair specimen

same for the next "a hours. the storm
being general over the northwest, and
