Suit was brought against the trust
company by Mrs. Hite, widow or the

obtain widows interest in the estate.
This was done in spite of the fact that
on April 6, 1901, she released her hus-
band of all dowry claim on receipt OF
the sum of $4,000, which release, the
appellant alleged, was obtained under
dureSs.

was the first man to introduce bees into

Instructor Benton has been conduct

back to its hive after wandering for
miles in search of honey, and announces
that he has partly solved the problem
His conclusion is that the bee is infu-

of the relative location of objects over
which it flies. 1t is partial to blue, and

WILL CONTINUE EXPERIMENTS

The university apiarist declares that
his experiments disclose that the bee
depends greatly for its sense of direc-
tion on the relative position of objects
more so than on its observation of
color. In proof of this he found that
when he turned hive around so that
its doorway pointed south instead of
east the bees, unable to understand the
change, always returned to the east
side of the hive. He also tried the ex-
pertinent of moving all the hives in one
direction for 10 feet, but this did not
confuse the busy honey gatherers one
whit. Without hesitation they entered
their own homes. But when only one
hive was removed they seemed mysti-

homes, even when the hives wre but 10

The College Singing Girls Made /,
Distinctive Hit and Entertained
Crowd Royalty.
Crowd Royalty.

What's in a name? was answered
satisfactorily by the College Singing
Girls Monday evening at the Gale
theatre when they demonstrated that
they stood for something definite in
the way of a musical program. So
far as the musical part of the even
ing entertainment was concerned it
was rendered with a sparkle and a
piquancy that does not generally
characterize a lecture course number.
The voices of the octette of college
maidens blended we'll and they at
all times displayed a readiness to
respond to encores. There was early
established in the evening a chord
Of sympathy between the audience
and the singers that did much for
the performers in the way they en-
tered into the spirit of the music and
for the listeners in the manner they
responded. to the various parts of the
program.
Several unique features were in
PRODUCED during the program espec-
tally the quaker maids and the chorus
embodying the songs of the various
colleges. The comedian of the COM
pany, Miss Galloway, made a decided
hit in her Hide and Seek song and
Won the plaudits of the house in her
rendition of a college yell while wav-
ing a Dakota Wesleyan penant. From
a purely musical point of view, the
last three numbers of the program
which the girls rendered in Spanish
costume was easily the best, the two
from Carmen being especially good.
The director of the company, Mr..
Eccles, was very good in the readings
ne gave during the progress of the
entertainment and was deservedly
encored several times at each APP
p%earance. On a whole, the evenings
entertainment was one of the best
of its nature seer in Mitchell for
some time.
The next number of the course will
be on February 18th, when Leland
Powers will give a dramatic reading.

Alderman Kelley made a report

Alderman Kelley made a report
on the request of the Y. NJ. C. A,
which recently presented a petition
asking for the use of the two rooms
in the basement of the city hall build
ing free of rent. Mr.. Kelley said that
he had investigated the propo ition
and that he would report favorably
on the petition. Alderman TruaX, as
the second member of the committee
was very much in favor of the petit
ton being granted, and set forth in
a good earnest talk what the Y. NJ.
C. n. was doing, not only in Mitchell
but elsewhere in all prominent cities
of the country, mt he did not feel
that the city would be losing any
thing in giving free rent to the asso-
citation. 1t was backed, he said. by
over 70 business men and citizens,
who paid the heaviest taxes in the
city. Alderman Michels, the third
member of the committee, was OPP
posed to giving the rooms free of
rent, in that he did not believe that
it was right to do so; that the city
hail was not erected for hal purpose,
and that if one was given this privi-
lege then the Salvation Army ought
to be given the same recognition.
The vote was practically unanimous
ly in favor of the extending the ia
vor to the association, one vote be-
ing cast against it.
