The Firemens' Hall presented a
pleasing appearance on Tuesday
evening when the Sisters of ST.

entertained with a splendidly
rendered program, each pupil dis
playing the careful, painstaking

There was large audience, and all

GREAT FESTIVAL
TAKES PLACE SOON
Swiss People Preparing for Produo-
tion of Schiller's Great Drama in
Tells Home Canton.

ALTDORF, Switzerland, June L.
Altdorf is now In the midst OF prepar-
alton for the annual "Tell-Auffuhrung
or Tell festival, which is to Altdorf
and the Canton UrI what the Passion
Play" Is to Oberammergau and upper
Bavaria. Rehearsals are going for
ward, the costumers are busy, and
stage carpenters and scenic artists are
getting the big frame "Tellspielhaus"
ready for the svent Of the year. the
production Of Schiller's William Tell
by the mountain folk of Tells own
home canton.
The 'TeIl.Auffuhrungen" have been
held IN Altdorf, internationally, since
1895. The idea was first preached
about 1850 and for scores of years
thereafter the musical societies OF Alt
dorf had It in mind, Not until the ded-
ication OF the Kissling statue Of WI
liam Tell in 1895. however, was the
plan realized. Then the Schiller play
was given in impressive fashion by
local actors.
In 1898 the "Tell-Auffuhrung" was
revived A stock company was form
ed, a theater was built. and the pro-
duction made an annual AFFAIR. Each
year, beginning sometime in June,
William Tell Is played once a week
throughout the summer.
Thousands OF tourists visit Altdorf
each year to attend the play. 1t has
been the salvation of the town from
the standpoint of its hotelkeepers.
and It's ruination from the standpoint
Of few tourists who were wont to
visit IL because II was one OF the
quaintest and quietest towns In Switz-
erland.
The Tell theater stands at the foot
of steep cTag almost within a stones
throw OF the Dorfpatz where stands
the magnificent statue of Tell, as
legend has II, on the very spot where
Tell stood when he shot the apple
from his sons head. The theater
looks like a barn, being built of soft
wood in Swiss fashion. but 1t has a
good auditorium and an ample stage.
The actors, principals and super
numeraries, are all recruited from
the neighborhood, and appear in cos
tunes that are as close an approxima.
ton TO early fourteenth century styles
as Il Is possible 10 achieve.
These people believe In William
Tell as they do in their bible. Merely
TO suggest that Tell is an unsubstan-
ual myth Is TO make yourself per
soma non grata in Canton Uri.

six points with no evidences OF sup
port from the big bull leaders.
One O: the features OF the demoras'
ization on the exchange was the trans.
fer OF certain bull leaders to the bear
side. These men were those who for
the most part have been consistent
bulls ever since the spring OF 1908,
but who were inclined TO believe that
railroad earnings would suffer through
the governments action. The belief
had beer general that the increase IN
freight rates would not be interfered
with. Prospective earnings had been
figured on the basis OF the advance
and the fac that these increases
must oe held up struck the marker
leaders in very tender spot.
The entire railroad list was under
pressure. st. Paul was offered IN
such quantities that it had dropped
6 IA points within fifty minutes after
the market opened and the usual sup
port was absent.
An element OF pronounced weak
ness in the situation was the presence
OF stop selling orders In profusion
In the market and commission, houses
were selling from the opening. The
only important buying In the market
came from short coverings and there
was not enough To this to influence
prices greatly.

INDIANA JUDGE EXCUSES ..-
FARMERS FROM JURIES
Says That at Present Time Asrieul'
tural Work Is Too Important
TO Be Retarded.

MARION, Ind, June Business
OF the Grant County Circuit Court is
not of so much consequence just now
as farming interests. When jury
was called to consider state cases.
Judge II. J. Paulus ascertained that
the majority of the eighteen venire-
men were farmers and were impatient
to be in their fields. Several OF the
farmers said that II was impossible
for them to employ men to take their
places. and desired to be excused.
Judge Paulus consulted with mem.
bers OF the bar, and IL was agreed
that all Jurors who had urgent need
to attend to farm work could he dis
missed. But Ave men in the venire
OF eighteen remained In the court
room.
Judge Paulus announced that such
cases as demanded immediate trial
could be heard by pick up" jurles,
but admonished the bailiff to be care
full in the selection OF Jurors. Grant
county farmers are busy planting and
Judge Paulus and the lawyers at the
bar considered that the business OF
the court could await attention better
than the farmers fields. The fact
that Judge Paulus Is the owner OF
nearly four hundred acres of fine farm
land adjoining Marion on the west is
said to have brought forcibly before
the court the need of prompt atten'
ton to agricultural work at this sea-
son OF the year.
The business OF the court proceeded
after the regular veniremen had been
dismissed before a pick up" jury.

There Is no chance for juggling
