tized, Coming to the Grand
Tomorrow Night.

''The Port of Missing Men," the
title of Meredith Nicholsons novel,
which has been made into a drama

the tale. The hero, John Armitage

in the political affairs of Austria,
and finds himself secretly watched
by a number of Austrians who wish
to establish a weak parsonage upon
the throne. Armitage in return
watches them, as they are about to
murder a number of others besides
himself, who form Instructions to
their plans. Meantime our hero has
fallen in love with a beautiful AM
erican girl and having secured pa
pers of great value he follows the
girl to 1.-The Port" where he camps
for a while, but here his course is
interrupted again by the Austrians,
who during terrific thunder storm
steal into his cabin, bind him hand
and foot and leave HIM to perish in
the wilds of the mountains, but af-
ter numerous obstacles he captures
his foes, notifies the Consul at
Washington and makes his royal
birth known and saves the Austrian
throne.
Mr.. Edwin Vail, the romantic
young actor, will be seen in the
part of John Armitage at the Grand

"She is better off busy than idle, F"
is the way Des Moines judge
stated the case as he dismissed a
girl who had run away from home
and sought honorable employment.
The girl said there was nothing for
her to do at home and she was
anxious to get busy. The doctrine
laid down by the judge is full of
meaning. Every school boy has
been told that IAN idle brain is the
DEVILS work shop" Idleness is the
basis of all kinds of crime. People
who are busy do not find time to
conjure up meanness. There is
something inspiring in we'll directed
energy. The edict that went forth
in the Garden of Eden that "by the
sweat of thy brow shalt thou eat
bread" was after all a blessing in
disguise.

strange episode. He says one of the
occupants of berth was tanked up
pretty well and felt good, and he
kept everybody awake, singing "My

hooray!" A man across the aisle
stood the noise as long as he could
and then began another popular

Now?" There was a fight and the

pull the men apart.-Chronicle

as 100000 will cross. These are all

United States are being filed by un.
trained men from Europe and from
the cities. Canada is gaining rapidly

Bismarck under the nom

justices, North Dakota will this year
try out its new law passed by the last
legislature and elect three members
Of the supreme court Of the state. Out
Of the five justices making up the
court, only two hold over this year,
the terms Of the majority of them ex-
piring with the close of the present
year. At the same time the voters Of
the state will have an opportunity Of
casting their ballots on the question
of extending the terms of justices
from six years to ten years, a con-

come effective.
