TREATFORHIGHSCHOO
Excellent Defamation This Morning
BY Miss Ethel Canniff
at High School.

The high school students had a rare
treat this morning n the form of a de-
clamation by Ethel Cannif. Miss
Canniff chose as her subject a selec-
ton from Junsten Huntley McCar-
thy's famous novel, If 1 Were King.
Miss Canniff's work was Of high
order. She displayed unusual power
and ability In depicting the difficult
scene in which the pro tenn king de-
hes the attacking armies of Burgundy.
Miss Canniff is one of the leading
characters in the cast of the senior
class play which will be presented
near the close of May and her excel
lent work of this morning insures the
success of this event.

AT THE GRAND.

The Grand theatre, which is now
the picture house of Fargo. is growing
in popularity all the time.
The management is spending large
sums of money in securing the best
that the film makers can produce and
they are the latest in the work. The
pictures for the balance Of this week
have never been equaled in Fargo.
There are three reels shown at each
show, comedies, and educa-
tionai features, while in addition there
are two songs rendered, one by Miss
Baker and the other by Mrs. Server,
and they have been selected with a
view to the voices Of each. The con-
cert that is rendered by the grand

another great feature. There is a full
hours show given five times a day. at
2:3o, $3.50. and three in the evening
beginning at 1880.

a number of club WOmen's periodicals
are also issued under semi-private aus
pices.
Struggles of Pioneer Clubs
The second large volume of The
History of the WOmen's Club Movement
in America" will soon appear. The
first volume, which was written by the
dearly loved Jennie June" herself a
founder of the general federation, was
published in 1900. It gives an inter-
esting account Of the struggles OF the
pioneer clubs and their leaders and is a
handsomely illustrated volume cred1ta-
Bile to the organization 1t portrays. The
second volume which it is said will
fully equal the first in its general
makeup, will recount what has been
accomplished in growth and works. It
has been compiled by Mrs Mary Wood,
chairman Of the bureau Of information
of the general federation.
The income of the federation is &C
'knowledged to be greatly Inadequate to

considered for increasing it. Accord

be seen, these dues are not sufficient TO
support a large organization with so

under way to secure an endowment Of

applied to the work of the different
departments. To raise this sum, some
of the states are this year contributing
double their annual dues and special
appeals fer contributions and subscrip-
lions for this endowment are being
made throughout the country While

WOUNDED ARE SENT
OUT OF CHIHUAHUA
Train Load Of Injured Reach
Juarez En- Route to
CpsaS Grandes.

A trainload of wounded rebels who
have been in the chihuahua hospitals
arrived in Juarez early Tuesday morn
ing on the Mexican Central railroad and
were sent south over the Mexico North
Western railroad to Casas Grandes.
There were about 100 men on the trains.
Over the Mexican Central road they
were carried in box cars, which were
fitted temporarily for their use. They
will be distributed along the Galeana
district.
The removal of the wounded soldiers
from chihuahua is the first of the gen
eral movement of all of the wounded
in the city hospitals, it is said. This
is being done in case of the occupation
of the town by the federals, which
might result in case Of a rebel reverse
at Bachimba, ad in that case the rebel
officers fear that their wounded would
not be treated in proper way by the
federals on account of previous expert
ences with the federal officers It is
estimated that there are about 1000
men in the Chihuahua hospitals who
are suffering from wounds received in
the various battles. Many Of them are
federal soldiers
The wounded who have been in the
Juarez hospital have been removed 70
private houses throughout the city dur
ing the last few days. There were not
many men in the Juarez hospital and
only those who were wounded in the
troubles along the Galeana district

AuthOr OF 'At Good OId Siwash''
Copyright, 1912, by George MathewAdamsJ

II ENTUCKY is one of the warmest
American states, not only elimat-
ically but politically. It is stu
ated just south of the healthy repartee
belt and is separated from Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois by the Ohio river, which is
often swum by minority delegates in
Kentucky caucuses.
Kentucky is shaped like a suffraget
shoe, and is of medium size, about a No.
Q on an E last. 1t was settled BY Daniel
Boone with the aid Of a long rifle in
1859, and the Daniel Boone method of
settlement is still piously maintained in
most parts of the state in all important
questions.
Kentucky is a wonderfully fertile
region, and huge crops are raised when
ever the inhabitants have time. The
state is full of fast horses, beautiful
women, fine whisky and red hot men.
1t has only 100000 inhabitants, but
it could have had 100000 if the early
Kentuckian had been water jacketed and
kept below a shooting temperature. Men
kill each other over politics in Tennessee
and over cards in Texas, and as a recrea-
ton in Chicago, but in Kentucky crops,
politics and family quarrels are all fatal
The result is that in some districts the
Kentuekian who dies in bed with his
boots off is sat upon by the coroner, who
tries to find the reason.
Kentucky raises more tobacco than
any other state, when the night rider
doesn't ride. The night rider is a sort
of human boil weevl which gets into
the crops and ruins them with a hoe.
1t travels in crowds and is brave and
fearless wherever its opponent is IN
armed. The feud is another Kentucky
disease which has put a sad cramp into
the population. The feud flourishes in
the mountains of eastern Kentucky
where the railroad and the public library
do not intrude. and is a sort of four
generation family quarrel conducted with

CUSTOMS MAN IS
KILLED IN JUAREZ

Manuel Carona, an emplOye Of the
rebel customs house in Juarez was
shot down and killed by an unknown
person carly Monday morning while
passing through the Partido, a sparse
" populated section in the eastern
part Of JuaTez. Several women who
were near the scene Of the shooting
heard the pistol shots fired and then
saw a man run in the direction of Fl
PasO. The assassin made good his es-
cape. Carona died instantly fro the
bullet shot which took effect in the
mans head.
Several days ago he took part in the
searching of several of the houses of
citizens looking for arms and this is
the only reason that can be given
for the shooting Of him.
It is believed that some indignant
citizen, whose house was searched, shot
him down.

Victor shrugged his shoulders.
I don't see how you could have been

But they'll sparkle with their glad

And a strain Of love and laughter IL
with smiles you wish to 90.
