THEATER USHERS
GO ON STRIKE

The ushers at the Bijou theater
went on strike on Saturday night and
the youngest theatrical manager in
the United States" is confronted by
another vexing problem.
At $50 p, m. on Saturday Manuel
Nascimento, usher-in-chief, supported
by the entire squad of ushers, ap-
preached Manager Magoon and gently
but firmly informed him that they
would usher no more unless their
wages were raised from $4 to $3.50 a
week.
The manager suggested a truce
promising an answer today This
didn't suit the ushers a little bit,
however, and they insisted on a re-
adjustment of the wage scale in the
ushering department then and there,
Magoou saod that there would be
absolutely nothing doing along those
particular lines and the ushers there,
upon ushered themselves gracefully
out of the house and in the direction
of a luau at Kalihi.
The audience at the Biiou on Satur.
day night ushered themselves in, and
made a pretty good job of it, so good
jndeed, that Manager Magoon is ser
iously contemplating dispensing with
paid and professional ushers alto
gether. and declaring a dividend with
the saving effected.

FREAR TALKS ABOUT
SECONDARY DANGER STAGE"

Still no new developments in the
yellow fever situation, remarked
Governor Frear this morning. The
secondary danger stage IS still on and
WILL | believe, continue for three
months at least, The mosquitoes are
supposed to live from three to four
months, and, if any of these insects
that bit the original Pc lent, happen
to have escaped the fuIiightion, and
cleaning out of the Kalihi infected
district, there is always danger that
another case of yellow fever may ap-
pear.
Should a case develop in a densely
populated district it would mean a
very dangerous time for everybody.
There is only one safe way, and
that is to exterminate the mosquito.
The city looks better for the clean
up, and life will be more enjoyable
when the mosquito pest is reduced to
a minimum"
Dr. Blue, when seen this morning,
said that he had visited the Kewalo
district with the board of health Of,
ficials on Saturday. There is a lot
of work to be done in the Kewalo dis,
trict," the chief remarked" and the
place is in a bad way. The flling-in
will be of great benefit to the com.
munity, and should be done as sooE
as possible"

LONG DRIVE TO scHAFER
JOHN MARTIN AND SIMPSON

On Tuesday morning Senator L. A.
Simpson and John Martin started over
land for Schafer, county seat of Me-
Kenzie. where Mr.. Martin had an i'm
portant damage suit pending. TIE
action was brought to recover some 81,
200 from Charles Shafer. who formerly
kept horses for Mr.. Martin.
Messrs. Simpson and Martin expected
to make Oakdaie the first day and
Schafer the next. Court opened there on
Monday.
Mr. Simpson was just back from
Medora where he helped Attorney GAL
lagher prosecute in the state case aginst
James Martin Hellickson, charged with
killing of cattle. The jury in this case,
after being out all night, failed to
agree on verdict. the vote, it is said,
standing 9 to 3 for conviction. The
case will probably come up for trial
again at the next term of court.
Senator Simpson has to be back for
the 10Th when the Brinton case comes
up in judge w. C. Crawford's court at
Medora. It is possible that a change
of venue will be asked by the defense.
The Archie Belden examination is
also set for the 10Th.

DICKINSON WINS GAME
new PLAYERS TRIED OUT

The baseball game at Sentinel Butte
was an easy victory for the Dickinson
boys. who made nine runs, while one
was all the Sentinel Butte boys could
score.
The game was played at 10 O'Clock,
as Wibaux was scheduled for game
there in the afternoon. The strong
wind made it very disasreeable for both
players and spectators. The Sentinel
Butte boys were not in their usual
form. their star frst-baseman played
anything but good baseball. Towers
pitched a good game but lacked sup
port all around.
Dickinson had several new men on
the team Sunday, Powers, who has
been playing with the Second team. put
up cracker-Jack game at first base,
and is real slugger at the bat. Thorp
was stationed at short stop and F. Pease
of Glendive took second base. and al
though Mr.. Pease has not had recent
practise, he demonstrated baseball
calibre, and he will likely play with
the team for the remainder Of the sea-
son. Gibson pitched a good game for
Dickinson, with Howard behind the bat.
Davis. Reilly and Rigdon took care Of
the fielding, while Robinson had his
usual place on third base.
The Sentinel Butte band was out but
found little opportunity for dispensing
many musical strains. The fan stten-
dance was not large.
In the afternoon Wibaux defeated the
Sentinel Butte boys 8 to 2. Towers

Wibaux's ali-salaried team comes to
Dickinson next Sunday and the boys will
have to work some for the game and
they want the support Of every fan in

n. D. wheat
COSTS 62c
Is Government Report. The 1911
Acreage Largest on Record.
This May Tend to Lever
the. Wheat Prices.

Commenting on the wheat situation,
The Minneapolis Tribune says editor
tally:
Notwithstanding the sharp decline
in wheat prices, farmers have sown the
largest area Tor the 1911 harvest ever re-
corded. The stimulus Of high prices
which resulted In the increased acreage
following the advance In 1908 and 1909
has not been affected BY lower level.
Even at the present market there is,
undoabtedly, considerable profit in rails
ing wheat. The government recently
complied data from S, coo reports which
showed! the average cost to be 66 cents a
buslsels covering the year 1909. In
Minnesota the cost was shown to be 81
cents, in South Dakota and North Dakota
Sc cents q sbushel.
These figures may seem low and are
under the popular notion based on the
higher cost of material and labor to the
farmer. The government explains that
the yields per acre which were reported
by the correspondents were higher than
the average, and adds that it was prob
ably because they were better farmers.
This would give them a lower cost per
acre, of course. than their less scientific
competitors.
'The readjustment in the wheat mar
ket, however. has not brought prices
below level which few years ago
represented wild, bQnish speculative in
flation. The large accumulations of
supplies the world over. and the re-
stricted demand does not suggest that a
close balance had been reached between
supply and demand; Instead Of declin-
ing lately, however. the market has ad-
vanced, but the strength has been the
result of contested holdings of cash
wheat in Chicago and the extremely hot
weather over the winter wheat fields at
the critical period of the plant growth.
While the June promise based on the
governments yields per acre, which
allows for normal deterioration between
now and harvest, is for the largest wheat
crop produced, the speculative trade will
be more responsive to abnormal weather
and the liability of greater damage to
the growing grain.

BAD LANDS
j. RESERVE
Congressman Hanna Wants to
Get Bad Lands Set Aside
for United States Reserve.
A Good Thing.

A Washington dispatch of June 18th
said:
Following conference with Mr..
Greedy Of Missoula, Mont, district
forester for eastern Montana and Western
North Dakota. Chief Forester N. L.
Graves has written Representative
Hanna requesting him to discuss with
Mr.. Greedy, the proposition to create
forest reserve in the Bad Lands of North
Dekota.
The district forester is now in Wash
ington but will return home in few
days. passing through Fargo. where Mr..
Hanna will be at that time. Mr.. Greedy.
it is understood, urged the creation of
this reserve in his talk with the chief
forester.
|. 'Mr. Graves said in his letter to Mr..
Hanna that the bureau is without funds
to undertake the planting of trees on
any other areas than those which have
already been made forest reserves and
require forestation. He said also. how
ever. referring to the Bad Lands,
''UnQuestionably the land is capable of
producing trees and think that it would
be a good thing for North Dakota to
have more land than at present actually
producing trees.
''Mr. Hanna has contended that the
reserve would forest itself from trees
that are now growing in the Bad Lands,
and that the reservation should be
made before settlers enter. The reserve
sought would amount to 1900 acres.''
1t is also reported that corporation
has been formed at Medora, known as
the Bad Lands transportation Co.. for
the purpose of making this freaky and
marvelously interesting country acces-
sible to the outside world much as the
Yellowstone park has been fitted out
with wagon and pony trails and a
series of camps for'the safety and COM
fort of the tourists. The new company
is composed Of men who are al home
in the Bad Lands, having spent practi-
cally all their lives there raising cattle.
The points of interest that the tourist
would be shown are. Roosevelt's ranch,
Marquis DeMores' home and the site and
chimney of his packing plant. Custer
Trail ranch. Hell's Cannon and numer-
GUS other places that for one reason or
another have contributed it's respective
chapter to the history of Hell with the
Fire out, another name for the Bad
Lands.
The trip could be made in thirty days.

She WAS TAKEN away
kNIFERlvER RESIDENT

The funeral of Mrs. j. X. Slack was
held in Dickinson on Tuesday. June
18th. Deceased came to this country in
1897 or 1898, from Chicago. Illinois.
bringing with her her two sons. Fred and
George Weibel. Her father, the late
Henry Tyler. formerly of Taylor. lived
here at that time and there she made
her home. In the course of time she
was manied to J. X. Slack. an old
timer. and The day she was buried was
the anniversary of that marriage. So
the world moves on, soon our generation
will be gone.
Deceased was comparatively young
woman, just past A years. Her hus-
band was is years her senior, and
naturally expected 10 be called before
she. but those expectations were not
realized.
Mrs. Slack was friend of all, a
friend in time of need to many who
have called on her in dire need of help.
She will be missed in her community by
the everyday people by whom she was
surrounded, and who, very frequently
desired her services. She apparently
enjoyed good, even, robust health. She
never required doctor for herself since
coming to this state. But very recently
she became subject to humorous growth
and an operation was required for this.
from the effect of which she died early
Sunday morning, June II.
She leaves besides her husband and
two sons, one brother. Henry F. Tyler,
of Halliday, Dunn county, this state.
mother and three sisters in and near
Chicago, ILL.,,
The funeral was held from the
CONGREGATIONAL church in Dickinson on
Tuesday morning, Rev. A. C. Hacke
officiating, burial taking place in the
Dickinson cemetery.
Those acting as pail bearers were, W.
A. Mcclure. W. L. Richards, Joe F.
Christen. Clarence E. Eldred. E. Deffe-
bach and DR.. C. N. Barker.
j. X. Slack is one of the pioneers of
this country. coming to Stark county
from western New York. in 1882. He
cast his lot with Taylor, taking pre-
smption just east of the town. In 1886
he went to the Knife river country, in
Dunn county, with Ben Webster, where
they selected cattle ranch. The fol-
lowing year Mr.. Webster went back to
farm. Later he got into the sheep busi-
ness and was successful; finally going
farther west and is now living in COM
fort and luxury in Pasadena, California,
but Mr.. Slack continued and all these
years has given the most of his atten-
tion to stock raising. His present place
is about 20 miles north of Taylor, in a
protected bend of the river. The long
acquaintance and upright and correct
life of Mr.. Slack has given him large
number of true friends who sorrow with
him in his time of bereavement.
Among those up from Taylor and the
country north for the funeral were {:
Mrs. John Courtney. Commissioner Her.
