met PATRONS BRAVE
STORM TO SEE
SHOW,
Cohan's "45 Minutes From
Broadway" Played to- "Big
House" Last Evening.

Neither wind nor weather combined
to keep Grand Forks theatre-goers
away from the Metropolitan last even
ing on the occasion of the appearance
of George NJ. Cohan's "Forty-five Min
utes From Broadway"-one of the
most extraordinary presentations in
the theatrical line seen at the local
playhouse in long time. Practically
every seat in the house was sold out.
"Forty-f1ve Minutes From Broad
way" is a comedy in three acts, inter-
spersed with music, melodrama, pan
tomine and smirk of tragedy. Alto
gether it was a strange mixture, and
it is suggested that the Evening Times
offer a prize for the most fitting name
for this curious melange.
But the thing was pleasing, and
the troupe better balanced than the
average company which strays away
from the big cities. In the piece we
have Bowery "kid" and Mary, a
housemaid, whose parents could not
have lived far from that delightful
neighborhood. Then we have q
heavy" mother and deep-dyed vii
lain and butler, who is his weak
tool. Then we have a chorus of eight
pretty women and eight stalwart men,
who by-the-by possess rafting good
voices. Corinne takes the part of
Mary Jane Jenkins, the housemaid.
The actress has not much to thank the
author for, but the author has reason
to be considerably grateful Ito the
actress. 1t is an inimitable per-
Torrance. It isn't the lines that. get
the laughs Though there is a certain
smartness in the dialogue), but the de-
lightfully droll manner in which they
are spoken 1t Is an equal and we'll
balanced performance, and could only
be played by an artist such as Corinne.
Her singing of so Long, Mary" was
revelation OF what can be done with
small voice-when the singer knows
how to do 1t.
The other notable part was. the Kid
Burns of Scott Welch. Mr.. WEIGH
is a sterling comedian, and he. like
Corinne, deserves medal from the
author. He gave "de talk" with all
the eloquence and richness of the
Bowery boy. And his acting was
withal marked by quietness which
greatly accentuated his clever per-
Torrance. He kept the audience
bubbling over with Joy. at times COM
pletely convulsing them. Miss Claire
Grenville made handsome Mrs.
Dean and Miss Susan Chesnell, most
amusing Mrs. Purdy. Other we'll
played parts were taken by Eugene
MacGregor, Edwin Walter, Joseph
Cusack, Arthur V. Gibson and Elphye
Snowden.
The scenery and stage setting were
very handsome, while the arrival of
the train was a clever bit of work.
The four boys of the press" very
ably demonstrated to the audience
what newspaper men are-not!

GOOD

From Santa Fe Eagle.
The past yea has shown what can
be done in New Mexico toward good
government. That the state of public
affairs which has existed in New
Mexico for a a be improved
has been amply demonstrated. That
the Territory has been graft ridden
has been proved beyond question. The
people of the Territory are thorough
ly aroused n the time is ripe for
seeing that the reforms inaugurated
by Governor Hagerman are carried
out.
The plunderbund, which had secured
such a firm hold in the Territory, and
which had waxed fat at the public
crib, was threatened with destruction
and it became necessary for it to Sc
cure the removal of Hagerman or go
out OF existence. The leaders of the
Republican party secured the removal
of the Governor, but they are far
from being out of danger. Taxpayers
have walked up to the fact nat they
are paying twice as much Territorial
tax as they were tel years ago. and
they are beginning to show a dispo-
sition to take a hand in politics n
not allow the political destinies of
New Mexico to be controlled by a
band of grafters.
