A great many more than were ex-
pected attended the presentation of

school last Saturday evening, not
W1thstanding the drenching rain which
was falling about the time for the
raising Of the curtain. A great many
who wanted to see this particular play
were disappointed and were sore at
the weather which prevented.
Those who did witness the splendid
portrayal of farm life enjoyed every
minute of the time. The play was
given by a group of students from the
state agricultural school,. 1t was writ
ten by Merlin Shumway, a junior in
the school Of agriculture, who was
cast for the hired man. Miss Isabel
Vincent who has been on the trip with
the players and which ended here has
acted the part of Hulda, the hired girl,
In place Of Miss Retta Bede. The re-
naming parts are: Farmer Merrill,
Spencer Cleland; Mrs. Merrill, Agnes
Webster; Merton Merrill, Robert Will
son; Rose Meade, the country school
teacher, Alice Hillman; Reuben Allen,
James Curran; Marjorie Langdon,
Ethel Willis; Ashley, a young lawyer,
A. K. Anderson.
The staging and acting was superb
n there was no mistake in the
quality of enthusiasm shown by those
privileged to be present.

BROS FACTORY AT. CLEVELAND
-PlCTURES ENJOYED.

Fargo women were given the oppor-
trnity. to witness a real style show. at
the Orpheum theatre last night
through courtesy Of Sol Simon Of the
Frances store. Three reels Of motion
pictures took them through the
Printzess factory at Cleveland and
showed the various stages that a gar
ment went through before it was pro-
nounced perfect.
Each department of the large fac
tory was given good publicity and
none was more interesting than the
one where the Printz Bros. have their
office and pass on the quality OF each
garment. For the least defect q gar
ment is sent back to the work rooms
with instructions to the foreman to
remedy it. Even in the shipping room
inspectors examine each garment be-
fore it leaves the building. q
The luncheon scene where tf1ous-
ands of employees were leaving the
building was very interesting and
gave an idea. Of the large number Of
eople employed in the making of
Printzess suits and coats. The last
reel portrayed the newest style gar
ments that will be worn by women of
fashion this fail and winter.
Mr.. Simon was well pleased with
the large number of people that turn
ed out for the style show n remark
ed that it proved the quality of news
paper advertising. as a result getter.

BASEBALL PLAYERS

Justice Torson has formally dis
missed the charge of robbery made
against two baseball players, Marshall
and Benson, who were accused by
John Ness Of Kragnes and Clarence
Huntingdon Of this city with using
force in the robbery Of a considerable
sum Of money on or about Sept. 9.
The defendants have been in Jail and
have been subjected to a number of
hearings in the effort to establish an
alibi, but the men had difficulty in
securing the attendance of the wit
nesses desired for absolute corrobora-
ton. From the first the identification
of the defendants by the complaining
witnesses has not been considered this
best, more especially with the positive
denial Of the alleged crime by Mar
shall and Benson, who were represent
ed by Attorney Peterson. An employe
of the Northern Pacific swore the de-
PENDANTS were on a W~estbound train
arriving at Dilworth the morning at

FALLEN GIRL TO
FARGO HOME
GIRL WHO WAS SUBJECT OF
STORY FROM BISMARCK, SENT
TO CRITTENToN HOME AND
THE DISTRICT WHERE SHE WAS
FOUND WAS ROOTED OUT.
CIV SN AaNaABe

Bismarck Tribune: Yesterday morn
ing The Tribune printed a story Of a
fallen woman, found insensible in one
of the lowest resorts Of Bismarck's
tei!Gerloin.
AS a result of the story the district
has beer rooted out.
Bismarck residents, after reading
the story, raised a fund to pay for
the care of the woman at the Florence
Crittenton home. Fargo.
There she will be given a chance
to i've down the grizzly mockery of
her past.
Judge w. P. Casselman yesterday
ordered Chief of Police Fortune to
clean ur the resort district and to
raid ali houses of questionable char
acter and arrest all inmates.
This order is the result Of the ar
rest Wednesday night of one white
woman. one white man and one ne
gro. all under the affects Of cocaine,
in a house belonging to Trip Harris,
cOlored.
In police court Judge Casselman
ordered Ben Bennett. the colo1ed
man arrested Wednesday night, to
leave town. Bennett was given five
hours to get out Of Bismarck and
t~wenty-four hours to get out of the
state of North Dakota. If he returns
to this state before that time a prison
sentence will be given. Chester Wood,
also colored, was given twenty-four
hours to leave the city and forty-eight
hours to let out of the state. He will
also have to stay away five years..
The white woman, Corinne Comp
ton, alias Corinne Norton, will be Civ
en- a chance to make good. Judge
Casselman decided that the woman
was more sinned against than sin
ming, and at the request of Rev. Mr..
newcomb, of the society for the Protec-
ton Of the ~Friendless, she will be
taken to the Florence Crittenton
Home at Fargo, where with the best
of environments. it is thought that
the woman can be reformed.
Besides this, Judge Casselman or
dered the arrest of Trip Harris, keeper
of an alleged disorderly house and
the place in which the Norton woman
and her friend, w. l.. Balm, were
found, and a colored woman by the
name Of Carter. Both will be given a
hearing before Judge Casselman this
morning. It is thought that they
will also be requested to leave the
state.
Chief Fortune last night announced
that he would raid every resort in
Bismarck.
