The Ham Tree.

The chorus of Klaw & Erlanger's
production Of "The Ham Tree" in
which Mcintyre and Heath are the
stars, booked for presentation in this
city at the Metropolitan theatre on
Thursday. March z, is a remarkable
one. 1t consists of sixty young girls
ranging from eighteen to twenty-five
years of age and twenty young men,
not one Of whom is over twenty-five.
They were carefully selected for their
ability as singers and dancers. They
introduce their songs and dances
throughout the performance. The
beauty OF the girls and the attractive
ness Of the boys adds great interest
to this production, which Is recog-
nized by all critics as the funniest
now on the stage. Mcintyre and
Heath appear as MINISTRIES in the first
and second acts and az an Indian
rajah and radee In the third. They,
with Belle Gold, the comedienne. who
plays the role Of Deedomona, are the
only three black-face characters in

ors and actresses, among them w. G.

Mrs. Greenleaf, Neil Bjornstad and Ed
ma Oertli.

expected to arrive in few days.
The committee chosen to select a Sc
Nor class pin has made the selection.
The pin chosen is the handsomest ever

MANY ENTRIES MADE
IN DEFAMATION
CONTEST
Believed That q Two Nights
Program Will Be Necessary
to Hear All.

President Merrifield has recently
sent out to the principals of classified
schools circular announcement of the
high school principals conference, dec
lamation contest and interscholastic
athletic meet to be held at the univer-
sity Friday and Saturday, May II and
Is. These conferences are growing in
interest and popularity. There are
now so many entries for the declama-
ton contest that it seems practically
certain that two evenings will have to
be devoted to it. It is possible that
one of these evenings will be devoted
to the contest of the first-class high
schools and second evening to the
contest for second-class high schools.
Among topics discussed at the confer
ence each year are the course of study,
the number of units of work required
for graduation, the examinations sent
out twice each year by the examiner
of the high school board, the control of
high school athletics, and other prob
lens of interest to high schools. No
phase Of the educational work of the
state has been more generally satisfac-
tory than the growth of high schools
under the supervision of the high
school board during the last ten or
dozen years. and particularly during
the last five or six years. In 1900
there were eleven first-class high
schools and nine second-class high
schools in the state. At the close of
1906 there were thirty-one first-class
high schools and fifteen second-class
high schools. Some conception of the
magnitude of the work carried on by
the examiner of the high school board
may be gained from the statement that
during the last school year there were
sent out from the examiners Office
$4,000 sets of examination questions,
more than five times as many as for
the school year 1900-1901.

Have Been Busy.

Those who are working in the patho-
logical laboratory have been exceed
ingly busy during the last week, maxi
ing and examining diphtheric cultures
from various parts Of the state. The
work in connection with the Tysver
case has also demanded considerable
attention. DR.. Taylor's bill providing
for equipping and maintaining a state
pathological laboratory is finally
through the legislature, and with such
substantial encouragement more work
can be done than ever before and also
with less sacrifice than formerly.

Freehand Drawing.

The first year class in mechanical
drawing have completed their work
in freehand drawing and are now be-
ginning their instrumental work. The
first part of the freehand work con-
sists in the drawing of pieces and
small parts, and the advanced work
is on complete machines. No atten-
ton is paid to perspective. the idea
being mainly to learn how to draw a
straight line, and how to estimate
proportions with the unaided eye.
Much Of the work produced this year
could not be improved upon anywhere.
Those who are interested in proving
for themselves should take occasion
to call and inspect the work. Tho the
engineers are a busy lot. they are
never too busy to give others an idea
of what is being done.

Librarian at bismarck,

The librarian spent four days dur
ing the last week at Bismarck for the
purpose of collecting North Dakota
documents of which the library has
had hitherto very incomplete COL
lection. Nearly all the lacking iocu-
ments were secured, and application
has been made for the remainder as
far as it is possible to learn their
whereabouts. Some territorial docu-
ments were also obtained.

cises in pattern turning are completed.
The second year class in drawing
have now finished the detail work for
the engine. Next years class will
also take up the same line of drawing
work, but the making of the expert
mental engine will not depend upon
their efforts, as it does now upon the
work done by the present class.

1t Is Interesting.

An examination of the list of appro-
priations agreed upon by the senate
committee and passed by the senate
and by the house committee suggests
some interesting comparisons, as, for
instance, the total appropriations to
the university on all accounts for the
biennial period amount to $92,735,
while the total appropriations to the
agricultural college on all accounts
for the two years amount to $166,475.
These items are exclusive of the
amounts received by each institution

nance.

II Happened,

The unexpected has happened. The
sheriff actually invaded the university
and served subpoena on one of our
most conscientious and most earnest
workers! And rumor has it that the
man thus wanted has to go west on a
long journey, much against his inclina-
tons. Now the question is, Have we
grown worse lately, are we just being
found out, or does public opinion now
compel action where formerly none
was thought necessary? 1t is a sur
prise, however, that the biological de-
partment should be the first to suffer.
