HERMANHAS GONE HOME
Feeble Minded Youth of Valley City
Sent Home This Morning by
Salvation Army,

Herman Koch, the feeble minded
youth of Valley City who has been in
the city since the day of the wild
west show last week, was sent home
this morning by the Salvation army.
Yesterday morning Herman was turn
ed loose by the police department on
word received from the Valley City
authorities, and he wandered about the
streets of the city the whole day, WIS.,
iting the department stores and res
taurants wherever there happened to
be women employed. He had large
following of youngsters who were
having immense sport at Hernan's
expense.
The Salvationists picked him UP on
a street corner where large crowd
of boys had congregated about him.
They were inducing Herman to do
queer things, giving instructions
which the unfortunate lad would at
tempt to carry out in detail. The
boys were having a good time with
him when the attention Of Ensign
Wolverton of the local army post was
attracted and he called the boys off
and took charge of Herman, taking
made up and the boy was sent to VAL
ley City on the evening train with a
request to the authorities of that place
to see that he gets safely to his home.
During the day Herman busted
himself with visiting all the stores,
cafes and restaurants in the business
district. He hung longingly over the
counters at the Mint restaurant.
where they had a hard time convinc-
ing him that his affinity was not there
and in inducing him to leave. In one
of the candy stores box of candy
was presented him to get him out of
the way. He took the box into one of
the department stores, offering it's
contents to all the young lady clerks.
Aside from his box Of candy and mis-
sive addressed to his sweetheart, Her
mans only other possession consisted
of a mouthpiece to a musical instrl-
ment. Herman declares he is going 10
join the band as soon as he gets a
chance.

Considerable extra preparation Ii
being made by the railroads for the
accommodation OF the large crowds
that are coming to Fargo for the Labor
day celebration Shen ex-Presideni
Theodore Roosevelt will speak on tw,
occasions. The local committees and
the railroad officials have been in
vestigating conditions in various parts
or the state and find that considerable
equipment will be needed by the rail-
roads to carry the crowds. Extra
coaches will be put on the regular
trains If the equipment can be Sc.
cured. The local officials are urging
that extra cars be sent here If it Is
possible for them to be spared from
other points on the lines.
Word was received in the city that
the Lisbon Commercial club is com
ing to Fargo for the celebration in a
body and that this organization is
making great preparations to greet the
lion hunter and to make itself the at
tractive feature of the big parade that
will be a part of the days programme.
This club is fitting itself out with
badges and banners and the members
VIII appear In gala attire.
Fargo continues to clean up and
decorate for the occasion. This morn
ing 1t was noted that several more OF
the merchants had started to get busy
with decorations and the committees
are urging every business house in
the entire town to be sure and ar
range an attractive display of the ma
tional colors and flags.
Work started yesterday on the large
platform in Island park from which
Colonel Roosevelt will speak and today
this work was we'll under way. The
platform is being erected in a depres-
sion near the southeast corner of the
park, the sides of this depression form
ing natural ampitheatre from which
thousands can secure a good view OF
the speaker and be able to hear him.
Going to st. Paul on NJ. p.
Agent J. E. Johnson OF the Northern
Pacific railroad received a bulletin
from the headquarters OF the passen-
ger department stating that Colonel
Roosevelt would go to st. Paul from
Fargo over that line. The two cars,

FARMERS HAVE

large part Of the state and when ask

situation in North Dakota he said;
"As far as I have been able to see,
there is absolutely no reason for APP
prehension as to financial conditions
in North Dakota this fall. There are
some sections where the crops are
unusually good, while in other sec

ing. In those parts OF the state, how
ever, where any crop was expected,
the yields are SURPRISING anything the
farmers dreamed of securing. The
best yield of wheat that learned Of
in my travels was that reported by w.
p. Storms Of Joliette one of the big
farmers in that section. He secured

Happy Jack Gardner in COM
edy Sketch Heads Enter
tanning Program

On the theory that vaudeville house
exists for the amusement of its patrons
rather than in the interests of the
higher education, the new Empress
theater this week is presenting a bill
that begins with a laugh. continues
with numerous others and ends with a,
series of cachinnations that send the
patron into the street with the same
broad face that met the first number.
Happy" Jack Gardner and his COM
pany appropriated many of the laughs
to themselves with their comedy sketch
"A Close Call" Gardner was formerly
a minstrel. and he is still for that mat
ter, for the best part of his perform
ance this week is the black face per-
formance that precedes the sketch.
The Rials," who are billed as from
the Oxford theater in London, provide
the acrobatic feature without which
there seemingly can be no vaudeville
The male Rial, however. is so loose
limbed, dare devil, care free a fellow,
that one would vote the act merely a
comedy were it not for the presence
of the trapeze.
The fact that Billy Chase talks and
sings so fast that only he and the or
chestra know exactly what it is all
about is in fact a part of the act. With
the facial expression, the action and a
few garnered words the intent is made
clear enough to draw applause.
May Nannary and her company pre-
sent the dramatic sketch "The Hand

APPRECIATNE AUDIENCE
APPLAUDS THE SINGERS
Shouts, Flowers, Smiles and Kisses Greet the
Bevani Company at the Princess
By MARY ASHE MILLER

Welcoming applause. shouts. flowers,
smiles, kisses and mutual appreciation
were tossed back and forth across the
footlights last night at the Princess
between an enthusiastic audience and
the singers Of the Bevani opera COM
pany, who have returned from southern
California for an eight night engage
ment here.
Lucia di Lammermoor" was the
opera sung and it would have been
difficult TO find a more appropriate
one for the music loving Sunday night
audience, which had an unusually
large proportion of Italians. Regina
Vicarino was Lucia, and it was in this
role that she won druing the former
enga cement here the greatest enthu-
siasm. Last night she did it all over
again, bringing a storm of applause
for her birdli1e rendering of the mu-
sic of the mad scene. ending with the
wonderful clear, high note which is
the signal for the flood tide of appre-
citation from her hearers.
When she first appeared last night
her voice was a trifle cold and her
admirers felt for few minutes that
they were on the brink of a severe
disappointment. Gradually this dis
appeared, however, the last vestige Of
hesitation, reserve-call it what you
in the second act, which brought for
her and Sachetti recall after recall.
She came more fully into her own
in the sextet and, of course, reached
her climax in the mad scene. At the
close of the latter a huge cluster of
red chrysanthemums came to her. With
a charming gesture she separated the
flowers and tossed a part of them into
the orchestra to the flutist who had
PLAYED her ObligatO.
Battain was cast for the part of
Edgardo last night, as during the for
mer enga cement here. but an an
nouncement was made from before the
curtain at the last moment that the
role would be sung instead by Umberto
Sachetti Whether this met with the
entire approval Of the audience is a
subject for discussion. Sachetti has
many ardent admirers here, but so also
has Battain. The latter was at his
best as Edgardo. and the same can
hardly be said for Sachetti. although
it would be unjust to even family
damn him with disinfected praise.
There was a trif1e of fog in his mid
die register, early in the evening. but
this departed in the warmth of his
enthusiastic acting, for Sachetti is a
vivid Edgardo and his heart is broken
robustly. It would be a difficult per-
son. however, who would cavil at his
singing in the duet with Lucia, in the
sextette or in his death song in the
last act, the latter being probably the
favorite
Albert was Lord Henry Ashton, and
was in excellent voice adding greatly
to the well balanced effect Of the en-
/ tire company Bevani was satisfactory

Newcombe and William Giuliani in the
minor roles.

plimented for its consistent and con-
scientiods work.

SIAMESE ADOPT NEW
STYLES IN CLOTHING
Goods of Occidental Patterns
Are Imported

While the majority of the Siamese
still prefer the graceful ''phanung' or
loin cloth of cotton or silk woven in
various ancient designs and colors, to
the modern trousers according to west
ern styles, writes Vice Consul General
Carl c. Hansen Of Bangkok, the other
parts of the Siamese national dress
are gradually being displaced by oc-
cidental patterns. Soft felt hats in
black, gray and other colors. straw
hats and caps of western make and
style are now used by nearly every
body; long cotton stockings in black
or white, reaching above the knee, are
worn by the high and middle classes of
both sexes; light cotton underclothing,
shirts and neckwear are also in de-
mand, and boots and shoes are coming
into use for the lower classes also.
The total imports of articles of cloth
ing of western styles into Siam foB the
10 months ended March 81, 1909. was

patterns s1,257,s40 and $1,118,716, re-

Practically speaking, none of the
western style goods are manufactured
locally, nor are they likely to be so
in the future while the demand, es-
pecially for hats. stockings and foot
wear is yearly increasing.

TREES AND VINES YIELD
RUBBER IN WEST AFRICA
Ten Different Kinds Enumer-
ated by Government

The rubber yielding trees and vines
indigenous to West Africa, according to
information received by Consul w. j.
Derby at Sierra Leone, from the gov
eminent authorities of Southern
Nigeria, are as follows:
% Funtumia elastica staff; CD
Ficus vogelii C, 4. 5, 6, y the Lam
dolphias: hendelottii, droogmansiana
lonii; (S) Clitandra elastica; CD Clitan-
dra orientalis; (10) Carpodinus lanceo-
latus. The first two are trees and the
eight others vines. Nos. and 10 are
vines which produce the root rubber
from Kongo and Angola. All the fore
going represent large number of
species.
Lagos rubber is produced from the
Funtumia elastica staff tree and the
vines Landolphia owariensis and Cli-
tandra elastica. A little is also pro-
duced from the Ficus vogelii tree. The
bulk of the rubber, however, is pro-
duced from the Funtumia elestica,
The latex of the Funtumia elasica,
both on the Gold Coast and in Lagos
is coagulated by means of heat, the
latex being diluted with water and then
placed in an earthenware pot, which ie
heated by fire till the fluid coagulates
To prevent burning the latex is con-
stantly stirred till the process is COM
pleted by the bulk coagulating. The
latex of the two vines is coagulated in
the same way, though that of Landol-
phia owariensis often coagulates spon-
taneously.
