"A Nations Peril"
One of the Very Best at the
GEM THEATRE
FRIDAY.

A young army officer has charge of
fortress. From this fortress are
controlled number of submarine
mines, which may be exploded by
push-buttons arranged upon switch
board. All the mines in this harbor
have been rearranged and shifted to
other positions, and it is information
about the new locations of the mines
that is wanted by hostile nation, that
is about to declare war. The ENJOYS
of the country decide to use one of
their female spies in obtaining infor-
nation they want. At an embassy
ball the woman is introduced to the
young officer, and at once the game
is on. Feigning an interest in mill
try and garrison life, this charming
young woman induces the young
officer, in a negative sort of way, to
show her about the fortress and ex-
plain the workings of the various
complicated machanisms.
Gradually the young officer falls
deeply in love with the female spy.
The information she sought was ga
thered little by little, and quite a
few days were required in which to
do the work. The young officer was
a man of magnetic personality, and
before her work was fully accomplish
ed this woman realized that she was
in love with him. Matters had gone
quite far. Already the principal
part of the desired information was in
the hands of the foreign ENJOYS.
They were speeding in a launch to a
vessel lying in the harbor. This YES
sci belonged to the nation they re-
presented. As the female spy
watched them through field glass
she began to have regrets, and to
thinkNof the consequences her actions
would bring upon the man she loved.
She looked upon the mine chart be-
fore her. By pressing button she
could undo in an instant all the dam
age she had done. Acting upon
this impulse she pushed the button
and there was a great explosion.
The foreign ENJOYS and their vessel
went to the bottom, while she re-
manned to marry the man she loved.

A WALK-AWA
Defeats Park Falls by Score
of 70 to 0
at no Time of the Contest
was the W ashburn Goal
in Danger.

The Washburn High School Foot
Ball team won decisive victory over
the Park Falls team in the first gam G
of foot ball played on the grounds in
this city this season. From the very
start of the game it was evident that
Washburn had the better team and
the score of 70 to was not surprising
to those who witnessed the contest.
The Washburn boys went into the
scrimage determined to win and they
played winning foot ball during the
entire game. During the first fifteen
minutes of play Washburn scored four
touchdowns but failed each time to
kick goal. During the second quarter
IL more points were added to the
score on touchdowns. After the
first half all of the Washburn sub
stitutes were put into the game and
they showed up equally well against
their opponents. During the first
quarter of the second half three
| touchdowns were made. Hovde
succeeded in putting the pigskin over
the goal posts two times, running the
score up twenty more points. The
last quarter of the game resulted in
two more touchdowns and two more
goals being made.
The Washburn backfeld showed
up fine during the game and some
very long runs were made by
Caruthers, Hovde and Peterson who
made all of the touchdowns. The
Washburn line held well at all times
during the game and Park Falls was
unable to make any gains, only max
ing their downs three times during
the entire game.
The teams line up as follows:
