Knight for a Day.

Those who saw "a Knight for Day"
at New Music Hall Monday evening
came away entirely satisfied with the
music, the costumes, the scenic effects,
and the comedians, especially the COM
edian. Frank Deshon as Jonathan Joy
lett nothing to be asked for and is one of
the best comedians ever seen here. His
companion, lilly Day, was little if any
his inferior and together made an irresis-
tibe combination. Their take-of OF the
Merry Widow Waltz was greatly APP
preciated by those who have seen the
Merry Widow and the music of Life is
a SeeSaw" and Little Girl in Blue
stick in the memory of all who heard "a
Knight for a Dav."

BISMARCK TRIBUNE
GETS THE CONTRACT
THE COMMISSIONERS OF PUBLIC
sPRINTiNG COMPLETE THEIR
MEETING THURSDAY BY THE
AWARD OF STATE PRINTING
FOR NEXT TWO YEARS TO THE
TRIBUNE.


The commissioners of public print
ing completed their meeting Thurs
day afternoon by awarding the con-
tract for the first four classes of the
state printing for the period of 1909
and 1910 to the Bismarck Tribune
company of this city, they being the
lowest bidders among the numerous
other competitors.
The competition between the bid
ders was very keen, but upon opening
the bids it was discovered that the
Tribune had by far the lowest bid.
Secretary of State Blaisdell, chair
man, and the commission considers
that the commissioners are fortunate
in securing such an economical con
tract, to be performed during the en-
suing two years, only small percent
age above the last period, as it will
be the means of saving to the state
of several thousand dollars during
that period. The contract with the
Tribune at the present time is a los
ing one, as since it was taken the
hours of labor have been reduced and
cost of paper and material increased.
