j. For three nights next week, Be-

vaudeville in the Brinkman theatre
Miss Dorothy Humes, of Cass Lake,
has been in the city several weeks
training the young people who are
to take part in the various numbers
and those who have seen the rehears-
ais say that the Bemidji vaudeville
will surpass anything ever seen on a
local stage.
D.: Miss Humes has had some expert
ence as director and in August had
charge of a week of vaudeville in
CaSS Lake that drew packed house
every night and netted the CONNER
cial club nice sum of money. About
thirty Bemidji people saw the final
Cass Lake performance and decided
then that Bemidji had as much talent
as any other Minnesota city and could
put on vaudeville also. The num-
bers to be produced next week are
the result of the resolution and
large amount of work. -s7~

The Hallowells Are Coming.
The vaudeville is being put on for
the Episcopal church building fund.
The church has also arranged to
bring the Hallowell Concert COM
pany to Bemidji for return engage
ment on October FL. This company
was here for two concerts in the
spring and gave such satisfaction to
music lovers that they were urged to
return.
During the spring engagement, the
company played two concerts each
evening and an admission of twenty
five cents was charged to each. When
here for the Episcopal church the
company will play but one concert
and the charge will be fifty cents for
adults and twenty-five cents for
children. The guarantee to the COM
pany is so high that 800 tickets
must be sold before the church will
break even. 90. :
