HE Was NOT
A CANDIDATE.
Prominent Politician States that His
Name Was Used by Opposition
Merely to Hamper the
Campaign of Favorite

Thomas Thorson, of Canton, S. D.,
named as possible senatorial timber
during the session of the legislature
when fight was being made on Thomas
Sterling yesterday stated that the
progressives of the state were highly
pleased with the election Of Mr..
Sterling.
"I was never a candidate for the
place and my name was used TO
muddle the progressives, said Mr..
Thorson. The progressives of South
Dakota are highly pleased with condi-
tions at Washington.Y Burke and
Martin will have to get in line if
they wish to continue service in the
house of representatives. They are
out of line with the sentiment Of the
voters of the state.
Mr.. Thorson discussed for mom-
ent the land office situation attack
ing former Senator Gamble and the
Jacksons for their activities
Mr. Thorson was uncertain as to
the future of the third party move
ment in South Dakota.
eff the Wilson administration con-
tinues progressive policy it is my
idea that the third party movement
will die," said Mr.. Thorson. "Princi-
Piles of the third party are the same
as those laid down by Mr.. Wilson, and
there would hardly seem room for the
Bull Moose people if Wilson succeeds.

about him, peting him with flowers,
until he escapes.
Sylvia and Betty return, dressed in
each others clothes, and with the
magic flower in their possession.
Betty successfully fools DeLacey, and
Sylvia as successfully fools William.
DeLacey and Betty set forth to stroll
through the woods and lanes, and
William drags Sylvia off to help him
weed the potato patch.
Robin sounds the dinner horn, and
the Laymakers return to the hay
field to spend the MONDAY hour.
Act II. Toward the close Of the
afternoon, the haymakers rest from
their toll and suroll to and fro In the
cool of the day The farmers daught-
ers set forth on their walk to the
stile. Sylvia, worn out with her ex-
periences of the afternoon, returns to
the field, and Betty rushes in, having
run away from DeLacey and a bull.
Each girl declares that hereafter she
will be content with her own lot and
will not envy the other. They retire
to change dresses and to set Off in
search of the poet and the farmer.
Unfortunately, their prank is likely
to have serious consequences, for the
Lady Arabella saw Sylvia carried
over the brook by the farmer, and the
Lady Araminta saw deLacey and
Betty walking arm In arm, and this
news Is impaired to Prince Tobby-
tum. who resolves to expose the Lady
Sylvia that night before the assembl-
ed Court.
William, accompanied by the farm
ers' daughters and farm lads, is
searching for Betty, and he runs into
De Lacey who is looking for Sylvia.
The two men are about to come to
blows when Sylvia and Betty separ-
ate them.
The Ladies' Arabella and Araminta,
thinking it possible they may have
been mistaken, ask the prince not to
mention what they have told him.
Prince Tobbytum tries to make mis-
chief but is foiled, A song of greet
ing to the harvest moon, rising over
the tree tops, ends the evening, and
all wound their way homeward.

ROGERS AND GRILLEY
Two Famous Entertainers Who Have
Developed a Combination Of
Unique and Fetching
Beauty.

Rogers and Grilley those two names
stand for much in the Lyceum world
of entertainment. For fifteen years
these famous artists have travelled
together and in that time they have
visited every part of the United
States and Canada. They have a
style of entertainment all their own
and grow more and more popular as
they get to be better known.
Charles 4. Grilley Is an author Of
reputation having written many
popular songs and recitations that
have been extensively used by others
in their Lyceum work. His little
volume entitled "Jingles of Jester"
has had great sale and has been very
favorably mentioned by the Chicago
Inter Ocean, The Boston Globe. and
other metropolitan publications.
Mr.. Rogers is harpist and Is with
out a superior on that beautiful in
strument. He opens the program
with a number OF harp classics and
these are followed by series of i'm
presentations and original selections
by Mr. Grilley, so full OF fine humor,
deep pathos and sterling beauty that
the audience is carried away with
enthusiasm.
For an hour and a half 1t is a
changing and ever charming program
that comes to an end all too soon.
Rogers and Grilley will appear on
our Lyceum Course March, 2Sth and
you will want to hear them at the
Kennedy Opera House.

The Easter Lily.
Minna Irving in LeSrie's

Minna Irving in LeSrie'S
Flower of the Easter morning,
Blossom of fragrant snow,
You breathe Of the resurrection,
You tell OF the long ago:
When the tomb In the rock was riven
And the stone was rolled away,
When the Lord of Life arising
Passed out In the dawning gray.
Lily Of Easter morning.
Starry and pure and pale,
With buds like fingers folded
In prayer at the altar-rail,
Lo! In your heart is treasured
The dew and rare perfume
From gardens planted by angels,
In lands of immortal bloom.
Out of brown bulb buried
Deep in the damp earth-mold.
Is born the mardelious beauty
OF your glory of white and gold;
And SO when the last great trumpet
Has sounded it's glad refrain,
We too, from the dust and darkness,
Shall wake and live again.
