Chase's-PoIIte vaudeville.

The famous Chase. quality OF polite
vaudeville has never been more refresh
ing and delightful than it will be next

OF "A Gentleman from Mississippi" and
other dramatic triUmphs of the present

plays the part of an actor of the old
school and a more lovable. and, at the
same time humorous, creation cannot be
imagined than that of the old thespian
living at the Actors Home on Staten
Island.
The playIet first saw the light of fame
al a gambol of the famous Lambs Club
and so great and pronounced was its sue
cess that Mr.. Wise was besieged with
offers for vaudeville. giving Chase's the
which was long and triumphant.

Heinrich Hammer seems to have struck
a popular chord in his idea of provid-
ing a short programme of music OF the
highest excellence for Sunday afternoon
patrons of music. Hardly had the an
nouncement been made that the Hammer
string qUartette would give an hour OF
music at the Columbia Theater Sunday
afternoon at o'clock than the demand
upon the box office Of the theater started.
The Instrumentation or the quartette
discloses Prof. Hammer with the first
violin; William Green, second violin:
Daniel Breeskin, viola, and Richard
LorIeberg with the violoncello. All Of
them are recognized as musicians of the
highest order and their entrance into the

very large and enthusiastic audience.
This being the deciding game for the
South Atlantic championship. each team
having won a game from the other, IL
is very reasonable TO expect that the
game will be Of unusual vigor and eN-
citement from start to fiGIsh. The friends
OF Georgetown are very much OF the
opinion that "our boys. will surely win.
yet there are many friends of the vir-
ginia boys in this city who are just as
confident. In anticipation OF a large
crowd the manaeament Is making special
arrangements 10 accommodate with good
seats all who attend. The game will be
called promptly at $50. after which the

Lyceum-.8roadway Gayety Girls,

Alive to the fact that the best is al
ways the cheapest in the long run. Man
ayers James H. Curtain and Sim WILL
iams have provided an exceptionally
strong company for their famous Broad
way Gayety Girls" which will be the
next attraction at the Lyceum Theater,
commencing next week.
The organization will appear in two
new musical comedies entitled I'm
Search OF a widow and Two Lucky
Tramps" The show has been pronounc-
ed everywhere as a most elaborate pro-
tduction. The offering more closely re-
sembles big Broadway production than
burlesque show. The music. which in
cludes fifteen original song hits and
numbers, is described as the catchiest
Of the season. The olio would be the saw
ing grace OF any attraction alone. A
few OF the acts are Miss Emma O'Neill.
Brown and Bragg. Milton and Delmar,
May Bryant. Rose Burns, Mile. Barto-
lette. Ernest and Ethel Melrose, and
others. The singing and dancing chorus
is made up of twenty charming and ex-
ceptionally pretty young women and is
said to be the best ever mustered in a
similar organization.

Gayety-"coIumbia BurIcsquer,."

WhirI' at the Gayety next week, will
present two one-act musical burlettas
which are said to be brimful of fun and
60 The hrst shows the company on
board the Lusitania as the guests of a
New York millionaire. 1t is needless to
say that the show girls and "broilers"
are anxious to make an impression upon
Mr.. Millionaire, so that, when they get
TO Paris, they will be shown a good
time. But Mr.. Millionaires wife Is on
board also, and much OF the comedy is
developed through the attempts OF the
better half to ciIcumvent the wiles Of
the gay party. The hilarity OF the scene
is increased by the appearance of two
stowawsys, who pose as counts. There
is a big supper party given by the mil
lionaire, and it is the counts who pre-
side at the banquet board. The comlcsl
possibilities Of the situation are fully
realized.
In the second act "A Partisan Tempta-
ton shows the company in a gay Paris
restaurant. A clever olio is introduced
between the two parts. The features OF
the vaudeville are the representation OF
famous paintings by Mile. Florette and
a musical travesty by the gifted Banta
brothers. Miss Florede's brilliant soprano
voice is to be heard TO advantage, too.

SOM BIG CORN

The Register is in receipt of the
following letter from Prof. n. f. Han
sen:
I'm your local column for Feb. 20,
you mention the South American corn
at the Lincoln county Corn Growers
association. This sample of corn was
not on exhibition at the Lincoln Coun-
ty Corn Growers association, but was
a sample I imported to illustrate a
lecture on plant heredity in the regu-
lar college work. These two samples,
the red and white, were raised under
the equator in Peru, South America.
1t takes seven months to mature and
grows v twenty feet. Our common
corn was developed from this type of
corn by selection for early maturity
and gradually brought northward
clear to Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
This was done by the Indians long
before Columbus discovered America.
AS far as I know, this meeting at Can
ton was the first time it has ever
been exhibited in the state. The
point made was that corn is still a
s~emi-tropical plant and the seed should
be taken early and ripened in a cur
rent OF warm air until thoroughly
dry. If We remember this every fall,
farmers will not lose the many thou.
sands they are now losing by the
disregarding OF this fundamental fact
in the heredity OF corn. People in
terested may see the sample Of this
corn by calling at the college green
house."

A BIG LAND DEAL

The biggest land deal in money
value ever pulled off in Brookings
county was closed this week by S.
II. McCarl, manager Of the McCarl
Land Agency. All Of the parties to
to the deal are Brookings county peo-
pie and all OF the property involved
is located in this county. In this
deal he sold ID. M. Lorenzen, who
lives in South Brookings, the II. S.
LeFevre half section five miles south
Of ElktOn at eighty dollars per acre.
II. S. Lefevere, also OF this city, takes
in payment the G. F. Hepner quarter
at 500 per acre and the Fred Killing
55 acre tract, joining the city on the
south, at $4,000, and in the same
transaction Mr.. McCarl sells the Le-
Fevre residence in this city for 5000,
making the total amount involved $685.
coo.
Mr.. IOrenzen is now living on the
30 acre tract, known as the SherWin
farm, and he has rented the Holiday
half section, south OF town, for this
year, as he cannot get possession OF
his farm near Elkton until fall. Mr..
LeFevre will not move to the Sherwin
place and it is his intention to tear
down all OF the present farm buildings
and construct a large round barn, with
silos, for dairy purposes and expects
to establish himself in that business
in the near future.
Mr.. McCarl Is to be congratulated
in pulling Off a deal Of this magnitude.
and which at the same time is a fair
and advantageous one for both Of the
parties concerned.

FOUR WEEKS MORE TO VOTE

In response to a large number of re-
quests the Register has decided to con
tinue it's Presidential Poll for four
weeks longer and the closing date is
o set for April II. A large num-
Der OF votes have come in during the
past week and the interest and ri
valry is increasing.
In their requests for a continuance
of the poll many have stated that they
know of a large number Of their
friends who are intending to vote,
but have so far neglected to do so
and in fairness to everyone and at
the same time to get a more repre-
sentative expression, the Register feels
that the time should be extended.
The vote this weeks shows a decid-
ed change, although Col. Roosevelt
is still in the lead by a comfortable
majority. However, President Taft's
friends seem to be getting into the
game, and evidently La Toilette is
not down and out in the opinion of
quite a few.

COURT HOUSE SOLD

The old court house building was
sold at public auction yesterday after
noon, being knocked down to Lars
Bitterness for 1920. This is a good
price and probably all that it is worth,
although there is a lot of good lumber
in the old shack. There was a big
crowd present, but the bidding vas
not very spirited. The ou|tbuildings
and the furniture and fixtures Of the
old building We're also disposed Of
and brought good prices. Col. S. j.
