UNCLE TOMS CABIN
Shown AT BIJOU
GRAND OLD CLASSIC OF THE
DRAMA HAS BEEN PUT UPON
MOVING PICTURE FILMS TO DE-
LIGHT AND MOVE THE HEARTS
OF THoUsANos- WoNDERFuL-
LY REALISTIC PICTURES.

Uncle Toms Cabin is here. The
BiJou theatre, always seeking for the
best, has secured the exclusive right
to show these pictures in Fargo, and
for three days patrons of this popu-
lar house will have opportunity to see
this famous old drama reproduced
from life with wonderful fidelity and
exact detail.
The person seeing these pictures
would hardly dream the expense and
trouble that was necessary to secure
the films. Every scene in this play
will be reproduced at the Bijou, and
every one of the scenes was enacted
by the best talent in the country.
Expense was not spared and the result
is remarkable, in its fidelity.
The scene where Eliza crosses the
Ohio river was enacted just as the ice
was breaking up in the spring. After
making the first jump the actress who
played the part took a fright and
would have stopped, but realizing that
to stop meant death, kept on. Then
Haley, following with the bloodhound.s,
had his trouble in getting the dogs to
cross.
III the scene Wnere little Eva ules
the actors and actresses broke down
and half hour stop was necessary
to complete the picture 1t was said
to be one of the best pieces of acting
ever seen in the part. So, too, with the
last act in poor old Toms life, when
after brutal beating by Legree, the old
man gives up life, just as young
"Marse Henry" comes to take him
back to the old Shelby plantation to
pass his days in peace
The usual comedy features of Miss
Ophelia, Topsy and Marks are to be
seen in the pictures, as well as every
other detail of this drama which has
stirred the hearts of the last three
generations of Americans. 1t is some
thing that everyone should see, and
the pictures will add to its popularity
for they are rarely good.
Take the children to see Uncle Toms
Cabin at the Bijou; it will be treas
they and you will appreciate. Three
evenings and the usual matlnees.

The country around Armenia, this
county, is certainly a favored section
and especially this year. The land is
highly fertile and the farmers in that
section. have farmed better than their
coworkers in some sections of the
state. Added to this there were two
or three timely showers that other
sections did not get. The result is a
splendid crop.
A representative Of The Forum visit
ed at the Geo. N. Smith farm east OF
Armenia yesterday. Mr.. Smith has 1000
acres in cultivation and is one of the
most progressive and intelligent agri-
culturists in the state. He believes In
crop rotation, crop diversifcation. in
thoroughbred cattle, horses, hogs and
sheep and his place is almost as ia.
hogs he sells as for the thousands Of
bushels of high grade seed grains Of
all kinds that he raises.
Last year he won four first prizes
on corn, wheat, fax and clover at the
Omaha exposition.
He is a stickler for proper cultiva-
ton and rotation of crops. He doesn't
believe in raising more than three con-
secutive crops Of wheat on land, and
hopes to get his farms arranged so he
will seed the same land to wheat only
two years in succession.
Corn, clover and timothy have inn
portant places in his scheme of things
Magnificent crops are grown this

The many arrests of Saturday night

kept continuously on the run between
his Office on the second floor of the
city hall and the police court room on

on the street, was tried and pleaded
guilty. He was fined SO or sentenced

the fine.
A woman who gave the name of Mrs.

Shepherd on the same charge, pleaded
guilty to having been drunk, but stated
that she did not know that she was
disorderly. She received the same SEN

Mike Scarber, who was charged with

an inebriated condition as the rest. He
stated that he was passing through
Fargo on the way to work and knew
that a job awaited him. The court
