SURE AND
SEE THE GREAT
NETHERSOLE
ONE OF THE WORLDS GREATEST
ACTRESSES WILL BE AT THE
GRAND TONIGHT-IF YOU FAIL
TO SEE HER YOU WILL ALWAYS
REGRET 1T.

Olga Nethersole has added an in
teresting double bill to her repertory.
She will be seen here on Wednesday,
in Sister Beatrice" by Maurice Mae
terlinck and THE Enigma" by Paul
Hervieu.
Maeterlinck himself calls Sister
Beatrice" a miracle play. 1t might
be more truly described as a dram
attic poem 1t is founded upon the
legend of the medieval church. The
scene is laid in convent Sister
Beatrice is nun to whom the temp
tation of worldly love has come in
the person of Prince Bellidor In
vain she prays to the sacred image
of the Virgin to give her a sign as
to whether it would be an unforgiv-
able sin to steal away from the con-
vent with her lover. The Virgin
gives no sign and Sister Beatrice
goes.
But hardly has. the door closed be-
hind her when the statue descends
from its pedestal, and the Virgin
takes the place of Sister Beatrice in
the convent, assuming her dress and
likeness.
The chant of the Virgin as her
Image comes down from its niche
gives the explanation Qf such there
be- of the allegory-that no sin is
unforgivable if committed in the
name of Love.
For 20 years the Virgin takes the
place of Sister Beatrice in the con-
vent hut at the end Of that tima tha
former nun returns. She has been
weak, she has fallen into the black
est depths of worldly sin Aged and
| forsaken she has crept back to the
convent to die-if the Sisters will
permit her-at the foot of the Virgins
shrine. But, 10! the statue has re-
turned to its long forsaken niche,
and the nuns listen to Sister Bea-
trices impassioned confession of
guilt and plea for pardon with ten
der incredulity-for has she not been
with them all the time?
This poem-play is told in Maeter-
| lincks loveliest and most imaginative
vein, and takes rank in his work with
"Pelleas and Melisande" and "The
Blue Bird" Sister Beatrice" is en-
HANGED by a musical accompaniment
written for the play by Herr Max
Masxhalk. Miss Nethersole plays the
dual part of Sister Beatrice and the
Virgin, and she will also be seen in
the leading role of "The Enigma" one
of the cleverest plays in the roper
tory Of the Comedie Franchise.

Pres. Taft Recalled Arizona
But Denies the People the Right to
Recall Judges Who May
Prove Unfaithful.

The people of Yankton burned a
governor In et1igy once after sending
a petition to Washington, so feet long
protesting against his reappointm ent.
President Grant told Col Moody that
such petition ought to be respected,
but it WASH t and the people kept up
the fight and had the obnoxious Of
ticial removed and got John L. Pen
ming in his place.
President Taft used the recall p:i:.
ciple in the Arizona case, but denies
the people similar privilege in state
affairs, and the Seattle case brings
the recall issue up for serious consid-
Grafton which must lead in the end to
advancement of the recall principle In
national affairs and do away with
the foolish idea that judges are more
than mortal and the people only
'mob" when seeking justice.
The people are considered intelli-
gent enough to select their state judi
ciary, but would be only an ignorant
mob" if given the recall privilege to
remove such men after proving un-
worthy Of trust given them by the
people.

THE KENNEDY OPERA HOUSE.
This Handsome Home of the Drama
Will Be Ready For a Grand
Opening in October.

The Kennedy Opera House will be
ready for the grand opening between
the first and fifteen Of next month,
under the management Of O. l..
Cam pbcll, who has lease for period
Of three years. lie has one Of the
best opera houses in the state and is
thoroughly competent III every way
to give our people the best service
and the best dramatic com mpaniCS that
come to the state. The house will
seat about | 200 people and the chairs
are OF the latest pattern and made for
comfort. The stage is large enough
to accommodate 100 people, and the
interior arrangement gives clear
view of the stage from any part Of the
house with 8 boxes. on each side,
three on the balcony and one below,
and every prec2Hti"n against Gr" has
been considered in the interior ar
rangement, with exits in front and
rear and side, big enough to let 1000
people out in a minute and iireprOOf
curtain will shut the stage of from
the auditorium, and the stage has
and one Of the exits is high enough
and wide enough for a team to be
driven on and OF the stage. The
dressing rooms, five in number. are in
orchestra, and a large property room,
and the building will be heated with
steam.
This will give / general idea Of the
Kennedy Opera House, which will
cost close to $35, 900 when completed,
and no one has Oeen asked to con-
tribute dollar towards it's conStruc-
tiOn.
Many people in Canton for long
time have been anxious TO secure an
uptodate Opera House and many men
with many plans have sought to
interest Canton in the erection Of an
Opera House, but those Opera House
boomers wanted lots given them, and
a ticket bonus Of half the cost and
then own the building, and If such d
house had been built it would have
been a cheap affair at the best and
not what our people wanted. The
opera boomers from the outside want
ed too much and our people didn't t
care to build a house and give it TO
them, for that was really what it
amounted to.
Judge Kennedy finally decided that
Canton should have a large modern
Opera House and he set men at work
eXcavating hole in The ground 75XlOO
II feet deep, and then he began
putting in solid cement foundation
walls for a large building, but few
knew that a modern Opera House was
to complete the plans until some time
after the foundation had been com
pleted.

greSSiOnal tailOrS who have been cut
ting political cloth to tit their fancy,
and in the spirit Of Vanderbilt they
might as well have said the people
damned," for we are the boys who
fear no noise" If these four political
tailors had any knowledge Of actual
conditions at home, they must have
kicked each others ShinS under the
table when telling the President that
South Dakota was hiS'n.
Previous to the White House din
ner it was alleged the President was
afraid Senator Bob LaEOllette was
going to get the South Dakota dele
CATION, and to head of this rebelliUuS
spirit of the people, he invited the
gentlemen, who claim they own the
state, to spread their western brogans
under Presidential mahogany and
then and there they assured him it
was only campaign lie. Well, let 1T
go at that for the present.
