The largest crowd that ever

was that which turned out last
night to 1.-THE Barrier. The

tion Of Rex Beach's great story,
and the audience was we'll pleased
with every part and applauded the
different actors freely.
Miss Barham as Necia, Mr..
Cleveland as Poleon, and Mr.. Cal

ly fine, but all were good.
The patronage given this COM
pany will probably be the means
of securing dates for other good
attractions for Beach, which here
tofore has been passed by the bet
ter class of theatrical attractions.

before the performance and a
good many were disappointed at
the last minute.

ing business if reciprocity be-

Former Speaker Cannon, in the

Canadian reciprocity. Aided by

assailed the proposed agreement
as dangerous to American trade,
inimical to the best interests Of

result in the depreciation of

Hanna Demands
a Square Deal
North Dakota Congressman Shows
How Pact is ntair---cannon
Also Flags Pact

Washington, D. c.. April 10.
Representative Hanna of North
Dakota, in a speech delivered in
the house today, added his protest
against the enactment Of the
Canadian reciprocity agreement.
The speech dealt largely with the
practical side Of the reciprocity
question. He contended that the
agreement if ratified will strike
the farmers of the country a dead
ly blow.
cit MEANS" he said; .'that
everything the farmers produce is
placed on the free list, except
wool, and that, understand, is
to 20 next. Free raw material
seems to be the cry and the farm
er producing nothing, it is said,
but raw material, although that
which he produces of the finished
product must suffer. The farmer
will not stand to have his prod.
,ucts placed on the free list and be
content that the manufacturer
alone shall have protection"
Continuing, he said: "Under
this proposed treaty wheat is
placed on the free list, but duty
is left upon -four; barley is placed
on the free list, but duty is left
on barley malt; flax seed is placed
ION the free list, but a duty is left
son linseed OIL Cattle are placed
on the free list, but duty is left
on beef. Where is the justice.
the equity or right in PROPOSE
tion of this kind? Who has put
the larger amount of labor into
any one of these articles, the
farmer who produces the wheat,
barley, flax. or cattle, or the
miller, maltster. crusher Of flax
seed and the packer; and who is
most fairly entitled to reasona-
BILE amount Of protection?
''There is but one answer, and
that is that right and justice is
upon the side of the farmer. and,
as far as lies with my power, l
shall do my best to see that he
gets a square deal. -
He charged that the proposed
agreement strikes at the very
foundation of the great principle
of protection which has been the
solid rock upon which the repab.
lican party has stood for half a
century and upon which it has
had the confidence of the Ameri.
can people.

dence letters from constituents

Auto Exp|odes;
Driver Uninjured
Howard J. Egan Met With a
Thrilling Experience in Auto
Tuesday Afternoon

There are wonderful escapes
and escapes that are miraculous,
but how man can escape "Scott
free" when his auto explodes and
turns into flying machine, with
him in it, is beyond our compre-
hension. Nevertheless, such was
the experience of Howard j.
Egan. sales agent for Morris &
Mathison.
Mr.. Egan was on his way to
Carlyle last Tuesday in his Brush
runabout, and, when about four
teen miles south of this city on
the crest of a huge hill, the en-
gine suddenly exploded, blowing
the different parts to the four
winds Of the universe. The frame
remained intact and tore. along at
the breakneck speed G. about
twenty-five miles an hour.
Imagine the look of horror that
overspread the couEtenance of its
only occupant as he gazed for the
instance into the cavern below.
But the hand Of Providence
seemed to be with him. for when
the machine reached the edge of
the hill she flew out into space
like an areoplane, clearing a six
horse team and landing about
three rods distant on a plowed
field, right side up. After several
leaps and bounds it finally came
to a standstill.
His hat off. his bald ard pol
ished cranium sparkling in the
rays of the monday sun, his head
bent forward, his eyes bullying
from their sockets, Mr.. Egan
surely looked the picture Of de-
spair as he sat in his seat, unable
to move, and tightly grasping the
stearing gear. He was finally ex-
tricated from his ENHANCEMENT by
the willing hands of a farmer who
was working in the field at the
time, and placed upon the
ground, where a hurried examina-
tion was made for broken bones.
To his astonishment it was dis
covered that Mr.. Egan's bones
were as God had made them. and
but few bruises on his body. Out
side of the shock to his nerves, he
is as sound as nut, and will
again be on the job in few days.

NOTED EDUCATORS
President Jonathan Rigdon of Wi
mona College, and Julia Freed
Walker of Indianapolis, Will
Be Instructors.

August 21-25 has been set as the
date of the County Teachers's In
stitute. The program has already
been arranged and will be one of
unusual interest.
President Jonathan Rigdon, of
Winona College will be present and
will give talks on Grammar. During
the last four years all of the Com
mon branches have been covered,
with the exception of the one to be
presented this time. Supt. Steine-
bach has so arranged it that the
teachers shall have heard the latest
word in the branches they are to
teach. at least once in four years
and the programs Of the institute
have formed systematic course of
study. Arithmetic, history, literature
geography and reading have each
been dealt with by experts in their
several lines. Pedagogy has been
studied every year.
Miss Julia Freed Walker, Of In
dianapolis, will have charge Of a
study into primary methods and
principles. Miss Walker is a prac-
teal teacher and is also Of the edi-
torial staff of the Editorial-Journal,
having the primary department.
When asked by a Republican re-
porter if Miss Walker was the best
in the State In her line, Supt.
Steinebach replied enthusiastically,
"I don't know about that. We
have three teachers In our primary
grades here In Plymouth who cannot
be beaten the state over. Two of
them are natural born teachers, if
ever there were any - Miss Walk
Fer may, at least, be conceded to
be one of the best in the State and
well worth hearing.
The sessions of the County In
stitute will be held in the Metho-
dist church and will be entirely free
to the public. Parents, who at
tend will be likely to receive q
great many suggestions and new
ideas which they maybe able to ap-
ply in training up a better type of
"Young American.
On Tuesday evening, August %,
will be a public lecture by DR..
Rigdon and on WEDNESDAY evening a
musical and literary entertainment
given by the teachers of the county.
This entertainment will also be free
to the public and, as there is con-
siderable talent among or county
pedagogues, it will be sure to be
interesting. A committee appoint
ed by Supt. Steinebach will have
charge of the program.

Embezzlement Trial Developes Dram.
attic Incidents-Child Brought
Forward-Letters Cause
Discontinue.

Cincinnati, O., June 1.-TWO incl
dents stirred the emotions of the spec
tators at the trial of Edgar S. Cooke,
charged with embezzling $4,000 from
the Big Four railway.
The second brought tears from Judge,
jury, attorneys and spectators. The
first aroused the curiosity of all who
saw
Mrs. Jeanette Stewart-Ford, on the
stand for oross-examination, and Mrs.
Edward s. Cooke, wife of the defend
ant, figured in the first incident. When
the matronly looking woman who has
stood by Cooke through all his troubles
took a seat at his side there was a
murmur of expectancy, intensified
when Mrs. Ford's invalid chair was
wheeled in front of the jury.
1t was the first time in years that
the eternal triangle" had been COM
pleted in Cookies case, but all con-
cerned kept their impulses under con-
troi and there was no indication on the
wife's countenance that she felt any
thing but pity for the other woman.
The second stirring scene was pre-
ce6ed by the entrance of Mrs. Ford's
daughter. aged six The child ran to
her mother just as the latter said:
There is my daughter Jeanette,
and she is Cookies child"
The witness burst into sobs as she
made this confession. Tears streamed
down the faces of jurymen and specta-
tors.
So shaken was Mrs. Ford by the
incident that she was taken out of the
room Her physician told the court
later that she could not endure further
questioning. Court then adjourned.
The child's entrance was preceded
by the introduction of a letter from
Mrs. Ford to Cooke in which she asked
him to visit her at a hospital or at
least send her money and provide for
the daughter.
Under cross-examination, the woman
admitted that she shot Cooke and had
him arrested for assault in Chicago
and later for nonsupport of the child.
letters that had passed between the
Two were read. Then il was Mrs.
Cookies turn to shrink, for in many
of them her husband lad referred to
her as 20. H." Mrs Ford testified the
initials meant "old bag"
