Fergus Falls, MIMI, Dec. 1.-The
Beaulileu case came to sudden end
here yesterday The government rested
during the forenoon and the defense at
once moved for a directed verdict in
favor of the defendants. George H.
Edgerton and @. u O'Brien argued
for tho motion and Judge W A. Norton
against it At the conclusion of the
arguments Judge Morris announced
that the motion was granted, and Gus

acquitted Of the charge.
II have q very strong opinion about
the Clapp amendment aud the manner
in which it was administered. said
Judge Morris. but that is not the
matter at issue here. The question is:
Did these defendants conspire to
uefraud the government by conducting
Indians to represent themselves as

to sustain any such charge. The
Nichols, Chisholm Lumber company,
which the defendants represented.
appears to have treated witness fairly

POI,I'S

!. Inspired by the great success of his famous 'sDinklespiel' character, Geo; V. Hobart has woven a deiigntIui vaudeville sketch about the adven- lures of the comical but ioyaoie t1 o,o fellow. and this sketch, which IS rat ed as one of the most artistic on the vaudeville stage today Is the neao- line attraction at Polls this week. with a supporting bill of uniform ex- cellence.
 The story of "Dinklespiel's Christ mas" as the sketch is known, centers i in the expected homecoming of .sLooie' to spend Christmas with s.Nutter and Fader." and the celebra- ton of his marriage with his old sweetheart dena Schraittberger. Complications begin when "Loole" brings home a chorus girl wife. How ever all is forgiven and joy re1gns supreme with the introducing of ''the baby"-"Looie's baby''-for never was there such fine baby-but why an- ticipate-come and make your ac- quaintance with the happy family
 The Three Keatons with Buster and 1, the various smaller editions or Bus terettes'' purvey the same clever va riety of comedy acrobatics as in for mer visits from ''The Tumble Bug family and prove that they occupy a very high place in the estimation of Bridgeport's theatregoers. Unlimited applause is always the lot of these popular entertainers.
 Poole and Lane, sharpshooters, are causing a great deal of interest among all the local rifle experts and many of their wonderful feats are being imitated-not always success fully, However. Bridgeport has many crack shots and all of them admit the marvellous skill of this team.
 Among the other big features of the bill this week may be mentioned the Richardini troupe of marvellous gym nasts; Jimmie Lucas, clever and ori- ginal impersonator; Ward Brothers, eccentric dancers and singers, the Electrographs and orchestra.
 Altogether the bill is one of the best balanced and most entertaining of the season and is receiving merited com mendations from the vaudeville crit- icS.

CARNEGIE MEDAL
 FOR DR. PERCIVAL

A movement is on foot, headed by M. J. Hammers, General Manager of the Abbott Motor Co.,, of Detroit, Michigan, to secure for pr. Charles c. Percival, Associate Editor of Health Magazine, who is touring the world "Bull-dog" automobile, Carnegie medal for his plucky walk across the Great Salt Desert of Heuse Mts. in the Serra Aalta Range in the State of Texas, on the Mexican border, last June, when he walked without water to the camp of Troop "K' of the 4th U. s. Cavalry and then rode back with a detachment of Uncle Sam s boys to the rescue of his companion. Geo. D. Brown, of Detroit, who would have perished in a few more hours. Dr. Percivars walk was made in the boiling hot sun in a temperature Q of 120 degrees and in sand of the so-call- ed sugar variety that was ankle deep, with no water to drink and without any idea of where he was headed across the trackless desert, ex- cept that the Texas border lay due southeast some 70 miles.
 In his walk, pr. Percival accom- plished p 1-2 miles in little over ten hours, and had sufficient stamina to mount horse and guide detach. ment of troopers back over the desert to where Brown and the stranded au- tomobile. lay, in spite of the fact thai as desert sand storm had partly eff faced his tracks. The section of coun. try where this incident occurred is a desolate one. It has an elevation ot 6,762 feet extreme attitude, and was once the bed of a salt lake, which is rarely ever traversed by human be. ings, but occasionally the ranchers go there for salt.
 Dr. Percival is an author of note and has travelled extensively. He has long been prominent authority on athletics and physical culture, and has been engaged for the past veal and a half on an automobile trir late Mexican Revolution that his des- ert experience occurred, while he and his companion were trying to get out Mexico and avoid the combating par ties. They ran out of water, were en- gulfed in sand storm and lost their way.
 Dr. Percival and MT. Brown have the honor of having travelled farther by automobile than any other two men, having covered every State in the union during the past fifteen months, been across the continent twice and around the borders of the U. s. for the first time in the history of the world. They also have the hon. Or of being the first to drive an auto. mobile over the dreaded White Pass where, during the Klondike rush o1 1898, so many hundreds of gold mad dended miners and thousands of hors- es and dog teams met an untimely end. They are also the first automo- bilfsts to drive under their own pow. CT from the tidewater at Skagway Alaska, to the headwaters of the Yu. kon river in the Klondike regions, and to point of some 90 miles north o1 62 degrees. Their total mileage GOV cred by automobile to date is nearly 3S,OO0 miles for fifteen continuous months Of travel. and their intention is to keep on until 100000 miles have been covered.

PRESIDENT TAFT AT THE DEDICATION OF
 LINCOLN MEMORIAL
Especial from United Press. ]


 Hodgenville. Ky, Nov. 9-At the spot where Abraham Lincoln spent his days of training for the Presidency, President Taft today did honor to the Great Emancipator''
 A gathering of distinguished Ameri- cans was on hand to celebrate the dedication of the beautiful Lincoln Memorial, the Lincoln farm and home stead.
 In addition to the President, Car dinal Gibbons, Governor Folk of Mis- souri, Clarence H. Mackay, Oscar S. Stratus, Governor Wilson of Kentucky, Colonel Henry Waterson, Samuel Con- pers and Norman Hapgood are trus- tees of the Lincoln Memorial
 A lone log cabin built on a sloping hillside. enshrined in a big granite building, was the Lincoln memorial that the President found here today. A great old-fashioned fireplace in the single room of the home of Nancy Hanks and Thomas Lincoln, lent the sole air of cheerfulness to the dark, damp interior that the President saw. But the dim room, where Lincoln pored over his Blackstone, was the same old mud -chinked, draught-swept room that it was 55 years ago.
 'I believe this log cabin will live in the memory of America eternaly,' said the President

hears a noise on the stage, like the leaving Of horse and cart Then Miss Adams steps before the curtain and in a little prelude kindles the lmag1nat1on of the audience as to what is to follow and explains the absence of all humans from the scene. The ascending curtain then discloses the farmyard with it's various fnhab- itants of the feathered and animal Kingdoms. The story of the play is the story of plain barnyard Cock, who believes, quite simply, that his morning growing actually causes the sun t6 rise. He feels an exalted re- sponsibility for this daily service to the world, and guards 1t as the se- cret of his life. In the end he is dis illusioned and humbled-as all great idealists are humbled-and he con- siders himself finally merely the un- worthy instrument appointed by des- tiny for a glorious employment.
 Soon after the play opens a Pheas- ant Hen appears, typifying that kind of woman's love which is jealous of her lovers work because it compels her to divide him with it. The Pheas- ant sets her cap for Chantecler, and, by her seductions,- soon worms his secret out of him.
 Like all idealists Chantec1er has en- emies; those who like the B1ackbird, wisely know that he does not bring the dawn, and laughs cynically at his simple belief in himself, those like the Owls and unclean night birds who hate him because 1t is his song which is the signal that drives them to their retreats; and finally, those like the squat. envfous toads who befoul ev- erything that is above them.
 These creatures of darkness plot to overthrow Chantecler and enlist the aid of the Game Cocks. There is a quarrel and soon Chantecler and the White Pyle with the razor spurs are at battle. Chantecler is being de- feated when the Hawk swoops over the farmyard and his dreaded shadow sends all of it's denizens scurrying to cover. Chantecler stands his ground and protects his flock. The battle re- stunned he defeats the White Pyle. He is then the triumphant hero with one vulnerable spot his illusion about the importance of his work.
 Tn the last act this vulnerable spot undoes him. Led astray by the Hen Pheasant he keeps his head under her wing until the morning has broken without his assistance. He then faces the tragedy of the enthusiast-disil- lusioned-and is overwhelmed with despair. The greatness Of his char acter is shown at this point in the buoyancy and optimism with which he accepts the fact that while his Worh uiO Iiot HledA dS hIuCA dS Ae thought it did, it still means to him all the happiness there is in life.
 One of the effects is the dwarfing of the stature of the actors by eKag- gerating the size of the inanimate objects on the stage. For instance a wheelbarrow is as big as an ox-cart and a hay rick as tall as. mountain. The play is divided into four acts. The costumes were made In Paris and were designed by Mir Alexander. The cast numbers upwards of seventy peO- pie and is composed of prominent ac- tors and actresses. The sale of seats opened today.

That Same Old Game
Billionaires, Tariff Magnates, Re- publican Bosses All Shriek.
 ing the Old Howl
(By Clyde H. Tavenner, Special Cor
 respondent of The Farmer)

(By Clyde H. Tavenner, Special Cor
 respondent of The Farmer.)
 Washington. Nov. 9-That the Re- publican Standpatters still refuse to concede that the people have decided that political parties must stand on principle if they would win success, is indicated by the fact that the Old Guard is still trying to frighten the voters into believing that business activity will cease as soon as the Democrats come into power.
 Whenever. an election approaches, the billionaires, from behind their protection trenches, let out the wall that Democratic success means slack game is being played. Already Wall street is striving to create the im- pression that business has started to drag because of the fear that a Dem- ocratic administration will be placed in power a year from now.
 That those who would have the country believe these tales are deceiv- ing nobody so much as themselves can be seen by 8 glance at any of the financial newspapers published in New York. In the Nov.S6 issue of the Wall Street Journal, for instance, a perusal of the head lines alone would convince stranger, unfamiliar with
 
 tion was in the midst of unprecedent- ed prosperity. Here are a few of them: "Busir1ess Showing Signs of Renewed Activity" Moderate Im- provement in Steel Orders" 'Automo- bile Manufacturers Think 1912 May Be Best Year." Anthracite Trade Now at Maximum" Farm Value of Lands Show Large Ten Year Increase, ,'' Railroads Reporting Gains in Week. ly Gross Earnings, Foreign Ex- change Market still Holding Firm, '' 'sConditions Improved in Bond Mar ket"
 The truth is that honest business men all over the country have well comed the success so far achieved by the Democrats, and since the Demo- crats so far have justified every con- fidence placed in them by the business interests, by demonstrating that leg itimate business has nothing to lose and everything to gain by Democratic rule, these same honest business men, if reports coming in from all over the country are to be believed, are determined to increase the Dem. ocratic responsibility.

 NEXT MONDAY NIGH

NEAL n1OIN0AI NIII11
 Really notable plays come so sell dom that the approach of one is hail. ed with delight by all those who ap- preciate. all that is best in the thea tre. The most notable play on the stage today is Edmond Rostand's poetic fantasy of the barnyard, "Chantecler," which Charles Frohman is to present at the Park theatre on Monday night with Maude Adams in the title role. In France, Rostand is idoliZed and his genius is recogniZ- ed throughout the world. The presen- tation of the drama on which its author labored for seven years brings in combination with Rostand the most ambitious and best loved of American actresses and it is to be said to her infinite credit that in it she has SCOT ed one of the biggest successes of her career
 "Chantecler'' is today the greatest novelty that the stage of this Or any other country has to offer. It is al once grand spectacle, a serious poem and a fantastic comedy all in one MT. Frohman spared no expense in giving the play a production in every way worthy of it. Eminent men such as John w. Alexander, the President of the National Academy of Design and one of Americas foremost paint CTS, were called in so that the drama would in its settings breathe forth the spirit of its author. The play it. self is imposing in the lesson that i, teaches, in it's flowing English and charming versification and 1t is inn posing as a spectacle.
 E The play, which is in four acts has an original opening. The curtain is yet to rise. The exoectant audience
