IS A PROPORTIONS OPENING
Savoy Family Theatre Played to
Crowded Houses on Opening Night
A Model PLAYHOUSE.

The Savoy Family theatre, the new
est acquisition to the list of Grand
Forks amusement houses, opened it's
doors to the yearning public last even
ing and if the initial night, is any
criterion to Judge the future prosperi-
ty, Manager j. A. Smale need spend
no sleepless nights in perplexity.
The pictures were first class. lucid
and easy on the eyes. The Dowlings,
Myra Davis and Joseph j., in their
playlet, "a Sage Brush Widow" made
quite hit, the trend of the thought
being something new in the variety
line. Miss Anna Rowan made her ap-
pearance as illustrated songster with
"Pawnee" and created a very favora-
BILE impression on the audience. Miss
Rowan has clear voice, wide of
range and pure in tone, and she re-
ceived hearty applause for her work.
Probably the star attraction on the
program was the temperance of
Caesar. the great, in his excellent
magical serio.comic ballad entitled,
"The closer you look the less you
see." In addition to- being about the
smoothest that ever visited the city,
Caesar is possessed OF a line of talk
calculated to strike the popular chord.
The Savoy is finely appointed the
atre, with its rich interior decorations
and tinted electric lights and would
be a credit to any city in the country.

POLICE HAVE A new
THEORY TO WORK
upon
Western Union Robbers Are
Believed to Have Been
Posted on Conditions.

What became of the screws which
held the yale lock catch to the door
jam? is the question which is puzzling
the authorities who are working on the
robbery of the Western Union Tele-
graph Offices in this city early Monday
morning, when approximately $500
was secured.
The fact that the door gives every
signs of having been forced from the
outside, but that the screws from the
catch are missing, makes the au-
thorities suspect that an entrance was
made from some other ingress and the
catch removed from the inside, the
thief placing the screws in his pocket.
The only other means of entrance into
the room, however, do not give evil
dence of having been made use of.
The police are working on the theory
that the person, or persons, who COM
mitted the theft were familiar with the
ofice-both interior and exterior.

ALEX CURR|E SEES
RICH PROSPECTS
THIS YEAR
Prominent Cando Farmer An
ticipates Big Crop This Year
His Success.

There is an absolute dearth of farm
hands in our part of the country. and
If We don't get help from some place 1
don't see what we are going to do"
said Alex Currie. bonanza farmer
from Cando. to a Tribune reporter as
he sat in lobby of the vendome hotel
in Minneapolis.
Lighting black cigar he continued:
won't go, back until I get some help.
l put an order in at the free employ
ment bureau at the court house and
they told me that they would do what
they could for me. / want twenty men
from now until October. but will
take as many back with me as can
get. I will gladly furnish transporta>
ton If the bureau will only furnish
me the men.
s"Now the way that look at the sit.
uation is this. Every year the
men go west from our part of the
country and take their savings and
invest in homesteads. The next year
we have to hustle around for new
help. Of course, this is good thing,
but it is pretty hard on us, for it
seems to be more difficult every year
to get farm hands.
"Our spring is late and it has been
pretty cold. but do not anticipate
any falling off of the wheat crop be-
cause of this, for some years when the
season is the most backward the crops
turn out the best.
''The west is the place for the young
man, but the time has come now when
he has to go further west than Dakota,
for We are pretty, we'll filled up there
now" ;
"Beaming with pardonable pride he
continued: II came down from Can
ada in 1880 and hired out as farm
hand. and with just a little saving I
now have 5000 acres. That is not bad.
We are gradually dropping the raising
of stock out there and going into
grain, for we find that it is the thing
that pays us better. Further west.
however, men are making great for
tunes in stock. It is surprising the
way the price of horses is going up.
Out in our country you can not touch
a horse cent less than 5000. and
they are scarce at that. And, speak
ing of automobiles, let me tell you
we have over forty in our little town
Of Cando. That proves that we are
not starving in Dakota"

RIVERSIDE PARKERS
WILL MAKE A
FIGHT
For Abatement Of Slaughter
House Nuisance Which Has
Long Been an Eye-sore.
WILL APPEAL TO
U. s. GOVERNMENT
Under Provisions of Inter
State Commerce Act Provid-
ing Meat Inspection.
WILL APPEAL TO
U. s. GOVERNMENT

AS final means of abating the
slaughter-house nuisance which has
been constant thorn in the side of
residents of Riverside Park for many
months past, the citizens of that sec
ton of the city have, as a last re-
source decided to invoke the aid of the
United States government, under the
interstate commerce law which went
into effect on Jan. / last, and which
provides among other things for fed
eral inspection Of meats which NAV
be transported from one state to an
other.
The slaughter. house which is caus-
ing the trouble, is located directly
across the Red river from the central
district of Riverside Park and is owned
by Grand Forks butcher who utilizes
the meats for his Grand Forks trade.
In doing this, the meat must neces-
sarily be brought across the river into
North Dakota and here is the vital
point which will DO attacked. There
are no federal inspectors in Grand
Forks and the butcher in bringing the
products from Minnesota is alleged to
be daily breaking the law.
In conversation with an Evening
AinAes representative, a prominent
physician of the city, one of the num-
Der interested in the matter, aired his
views as follows: sit is a shame that
slaughter houses such as Grand Forks
people get their meat from, are al
lowed to continue in business in a
civilized land. have read read The
Jungle and Upton Sinclair's account
is mild when compared with one that
could be drawn up about the Grand
Forks places of pollution. tell you
the one which threatens to drive out
the residents of the Park is bog of
filth indescribable-if it were not
there would he no stencil such as per-
meates the ozone in that neighbor-
hnOd"

Urging Road to Potts.

Wonder II the Commercial club
has dropped that Potts road improve
ment taken up a few weeks ago?
Heppner business men appeared to be
very much interested in opening up
new roads that would bring new bus
mess to the city. The financial fur
ry is now about a thing Of the past
and the matter should be taken up
again. 1t wouldn't be a bad idea
either, while they are at 1t, to look
into the condition OF roads leading
into Hepjpner.-Heppner Times.
