BIG EVENT OF THE YEAR.
Everything in Readiness For Home.
Talent Play.

''The Kingdom of Hearts Content
is drawing near. 1t is due to arrive
Tuesday evening, March 1st, in the
Auditorium. That is the material side
of the kingdom is coming, but the spir-
itual side is as yet undeveloped, because
there are three men in the play who
positively refuse to make love. Two of
them are Tucker and Thompson. Why?
Who is the third? Come and see.
Tom Lansing (Mr. Dayer) senior in
law who loves Milly violently but hash t
the sand to tell her so and is, of course,
called slow by this vivacious young lady
who wants "a genuine man.
Miles Alden (Tucker), Bostonian,
Harvard graduate of Mayfower descent,
comes out west to practice law and is
conquered by the charms of Miss Dixie
Davis (Herrera), a genuine R. E. Lee
southern girl Alden stands fire for
quite while and finally surrenders as
gracefully as six foot of married dignity
can.
Sidney Dilton (Taylor) seems doomed
to disappointment, in the play of course.
He loves Milly violently and in order to
retain her affection, he gets her kid
brother Billy Merrill in his power and
tries to and attempts to force a mar
riage with her in order to shield the kid
whom Sidney declares has betrayed
his team and college by selling trick
play to the coach of the opposing team,
but Tom shoulders the blame, pays
Billy's gambling debts and otherwise
deports himself as genuine hero.
Ralph Lawrence Thompson has charge
of the football team, but seems more
interested in gaining yards in Shirley's
affections than in beating the minors in
the annual game. He has difficulty in
proposing, being interrupted at least six
times and finally gives it up when the
girl steers it through to a successful
issue.
Burglar (?) has short but important
part.
Milly Merrill (Leona Dexter) is the
girl that is foolish enough to believe
there exists an ideal in mankind, a
prince who will lead her into the King

TRAGIC DEATH OF
MRS. [. R. DRAKE
Medicine From Wrong Bottle
Causes Speedy Death.
Two Small Children Left With The
Dead Mother For Hours, Little
Realizing Their Great
Misfortune.

DR.. l.. r. Drake, upon returning TO
his home Sunday evening, after an ab-
sence since early morning, found his
wife dead, his one-year-old child asleen
on the floor and one two years old plav-
ing as though nothing was the matter
A bottle of aconite on the kitchen table
leads to the belief that Mrs. Drake
either took an overdose of the drug or
TOOK 1t by mistake for something else
On the kitchen table sat the dinner
dishes, partly washed, indicating that
the fatal dose had been taken soon after
noon. Mrs. Drake had not been FEELING
well for few days, although not III
enough to be considered sick. ard been
taking little medicine. Probably feel
ing little bad, she either took an over
dose, or by mistake got hold of the
wrong bottle. She was in bed. evident
iy having passed peacefully away. A
coroner's inquest was held Tuesday
morning, and after inquiring into all
the circumstances, declared the death
to be accidental.
Mrs. Drake was % years of age and
OF cheerful disposition. Her married
life was happy and to her friends she
frequently stated that she had all she
could wish for, She came here last
September, following her husband bv
about month, who had come west to
regain his health Mr.. Drake built
small house on tract of Carav land
about mile from town which he DUR
chased soon after arriving. His health
steadily improved during his residence
here, and, being in comfortable circum-
stances, the world seemed bright to
both him and his wife. At the time of
his great sorrow he was contemplating
buying more land, and would probably
have closed deal involving $4,000 this
week had not this great misfortune
overtaken him. During his short resi-
dence he has gained the confidence of
the community, and both he and Mrs.
Drake were highly esteemed.
Miss Jessie Thompson, teacher of the
lgo school, who has been an intimate
acquaintance of both Mr.. and Mrs.
Drake for many years, speaks in the
highest terms of the womanly qualities
of the deceased, and she was probably
her closest friend here. The doctors
great misfortune is shared by her, as
well as by the doctors sister, Miss
Goldie Drake, teacher of the Horse Is
land school.
The remains of Mrs. Drake were ten
derly laid to rest IN Falls View ceme-
terry Tuesday afternoon. The keenest
sympathy for the doctor is felt by the
entire community.

The illustrated booklets, for which
the Commercial club has been waiting
so long, are beginning to arrive. A
small mail shipment came in Monday
and an express shipment is enroute. A
large consignment, as baggage, left
Portland Thursday. The booklet gives
a fair idea of the resources of this sec
tion and will be widely distributed. Two
Aberdeen illustrations are wrongly at
tributed to American Falls, which is
mistake of the printer, however, and
not of those having charge of the pre-
paration of the matter. The error is
probably chargeable to the photograph
er, who may have put wrong inscrip-
tion under the negative from which the
illustrations were made. These are for
free distribution and residents may OBJ
tain as many copies as they can advan-
tageously use. 1t is the desire of the
club to put the booklets in the hands OF
none save genuine homeseekers.

Montana.

John Helm, who came to American
Falls about two years ago and has since
then made this his home for the greater
part of the time, met instant death in
a railroad accident at Melrose, Mon
tana, Monday of last week. Regarding
the advices received by Will Howard
he fell from a moving freight train,
nearly every bone in his body being
broken. The brakeing in two of the
train is said to have caused him to fall.
His body was taken to his old home at
Macron, Iowa, for interment.
Mr.. Helms came here two years ago
with Will Howard and opened lunch
counter. Later he took a homestead
and was preparing to improve it. Last
fall he sought work on the railroad and
was put to breaking out of Lima, Mon
tana. He came home the first of the
month and remained a day or two look
ing after his affairs, returning the 5th.
On the morning of the 7th, and his first
trip out since his vacation, he met his
death.
Mr.. Helms was 27 years of age, a
man of good habits and good ability,
and his sudden death was a great shock
to his many friends. He leaves father,
mother and twelve brothers and sisters
