SHORT STORY THEME
Mss Mabel Evineson Gave High School
A Very Able Grafton This
Morning,

The Short story was the theme Of
an grafton delivered by Miss Mabel
Evingson during chapel services at the
high school this morning. The point
Of similarity and difference between
the short story and the novel and later
between the short story and the drama
were very well discussed.
The development of the short story
and the reasons for its popularity
were clearly stated. Irving, Poe and
Hawthorne are the men who have
brought the American short story into
prominence declared the speaker.
Miss Evingson always had her subject
well in hand and developed it in a
faultless manner.

FEATURE PICTURE
AT BIJOU TODAY
THRILLING WAR PICTURE ON
SECOND BATTLE OF BULL RUN
THE MOST SENSATIONAL AND
DRAMATIC WAR PICTURE EVER
PRODUCED.

A Spartan Mother is the title Of the
Biiou's feature picture founded on the
second Battle of Bull Run. The re-
Inarkable portrayal takes you right
into the midst of a thrilling battle
scene. AS the shot and shell fall about
you, and as the grand old Southern
mansion catches fire and burns to the
ground you feel a genuine thrill of
actual presence in the center of the
conflict.
A beautiful surf picture and the
Pathe Weekly illustrating the latest
current events conclude the picture
programme. Frank Neville, singing
and dancing comedian is the vaude-
vile feature. Music by the celebrated
Bijou six-piece orchestra. The best
show for the money in the city, The
Bijou, admission only 10 cents.

Unheralded to any great extent,
Bunty Pulls the Strings. a Scotch COM
edy in three acts, by Graham Moffat,
slipped into New York and Immediate
ly scored n of the greatest hits of
the theatrical season. 1t is doubtful
II Fargo patrons would be given an
opportunity to see this clever comedy
this season, but arrangements were
made whereby it comes to the Fargo
operahouse this evening. Although
Bunty goes to laughable extremes, yet
it is true to the manners, customs and
life of the Scotch people.
We r soon to be favored by, a visit
of The Newlyweds and Their Baby.
Such is the unique title of a highly
successful musical comedy Offering to
the west for the first time, after I'M
doubted success further east. There
are fifty nj one-half people with the
organization, the half being the baby,
admirably acted by the AZ inch come
dian, James Il. Rosen. The big cast
embraces a lot of well known names
and the chorus and production are
said to be first class. This attraction
makes it's initial bow at the Fargo
operahouse on ext Thursday evening.

IMMUNITY OF ~MURnERERs.

The Rosenthal case and the recent
wave of murders by New York gang
stars has revived discussion If III"
unenyiahle position of the United
States in homicide records. \ murder
a day for a month was New Works
most recent pace, which startled Nh"
whole country. Eut 10000 h"m''ld"
crimes are committed in the lnlt"d
States in Il year. or nearly thlrty Tor
each day. and the number is rapidly
Increasing. Since 1852 there has been
an increase of $50 per cent in Am"ri-
can honlicides . More murders are
committed i'm this country annually
than the aggregate in ton oiNlllz-
ed countries. excluding Russia.
Thes figures are taken from sttts-
tics of the American Prison associa-
ton. of which judge De Corlrcey of
the Massachusetts supreme court is
chairman of the committee ON GRIM
inal procedure. He puts the muir
dcrer's chances as a sporting rropo-
sition. thus: Three 10 n that he is
never brought to trial: ten Z" one II

tentiary, and eighty 70 one THAI hs

these chances are growing more IA
vorahle for the slayer. Last year
there were 400 more murders thar
the year before. hut the ratio of ex
ecutions was one in eightY-six to one
in seventy-two.
Judge De Courcey and the Prison
association attribute this trend to the
inef1icjency of court procedure. We
and his committee insist that this
condition will continue until public
opinion is reused T." insist upon a
complete reorganization of the courts
