PILLARS OF SOCIETY
Senior Glass Of Penn Play Was a
Great Success. ..

The Senior class of Penn College
scored a big hit Tuesday evening
when they gave Henrik lshen's play,

time and given in manner that
would do credit to professional

widow of the murdered banker.
Defendant Laughed.
About the first question that Attor.
ncy Gangs asked of all the jurors
during the day was, whether OF not
they knew John Satterlund, and
whether or not they had discussed
the case with him. When Mr.. Bangs
asNed one of the jurors this morning
whether or not he had ever heard of

room smiled and Anderson, the de.
PENDANT, almost laughed aloud. At

but very few questions.
Attendance Increased.
While the opera house, where the
trial is being held, owing to lack of
room In the court house, was fairly
well filled with people during the day,
there were only a few people of Wash

intense here over the case, and little

A Jolly Evening.
About I o'clock in the evening the
Rugby band began a concert on the
Vcranda Of the Grand Pacific hotel,
which drew hundreds Of spectators,
who blocked the streets as they lis.
tened to the rendition OF an excellent
oprgram. .g5a a4tm
At Fourth and Broadway the Bis
J marck band also played a concert,
where there was another large crowd
assembled. The boys "%turkey-trot.
ted" yelled themselves hoarse and
did other things for their own a-nuse-
ment and to keep things going. 1t
was a ~good-natured celebration, and
enjoyed by both visitors and guests.
Special Leaves.
About $50 the crowds went to the
500 Line depot, where they bade
goodbye to their friends, who had
come by special train. 1t was a jolly
crowd and was composed Of Kenmare,
Minot, Rugby, Williston, Fessenden
and several other delegations in the
north and west part Of the state. At
!? o'clock the train pulled out, taking
with it one Of the best satisfied
crowds which ever attended a tour
nament.
In Conclusion.
Taking it as a whole, the tourna-
ment which just closed was a COM
plete success in every respect. 1t was
one Of the most instructive sessions
ever held in the northwest, as it was
addressed by several expert firemen,
fire marshals, and men who have
made a study Of the subjects and
have had actual experience for many
| years. 1t was a success socially, as
every minute there was something
doing, and there was naught but the
best Of goodfellowship existing at all
times. The people of Bismarck we're
%considerate in giving attention to
their guests, and through the Com
mercial club and the local firemen
there was no lack Of entertainment.
The weather was good, and there was
nothing left undone which would tend
to add to the completeness Of the oc-
%casion.
