Question of a Name.
The question of naming the new

II was first suggested by Wick w,
WOOD and r. c. Burnett that a com
pilment could be paid the memory OF
the late Col. c. A. Morton by namins
II atter That respected pioneer citi-
zen of Fargo.
The name of the late Mai. Alanson
w. Edwards, one of the founders of
Inc Forum was presented by Robert
u. paterson. President Creegan OF
Fargo college felt that as the Grand
army as an organization would be a
Illlng or the past in not many more
years, that the names of the Civi'
was heroes should be perpetuated by
the Sons of Veterans, and offered the
name of Gen. John A. Logan OF

THE PROTO-DRAMA
BECOMES FACTOR
CONSOLIDATION OF BIG THEAT-
RlcAL CONCERNS IN MOVING
PICTURE SHOWS LOOKS LIKE
THE PASSING or DRAMAS OF
FORMER DAYS.

1t certainly begins to look as
though the amusement world will suf-
fer a complete transformation and
dramatic attractions Of nearly every
description will be relocated to the
shelves. The biggest paying theatres
in the great metropolis, New York,
today, are occupied by spectacular
photo-dramas. And now ONE a new
announcement that promises more.
than as yet has been accomplished
in this wonderful field. The Photo
Drama Co.. of New York promises an
early coming of Bulwer Lytton's fam
Gus masterpiece, The Last Days of
Pompeii, made by the celebrated Am
brosio Co. OF Torino, Italy, In eight
tremendous reels. TO those who are
familiar at all with that story, the
possibility for powerful ac-
ton, absorbing romantic interest and
enormous spectacular efTects, Is
readily recognized. The Last DAYS OF
Pompea, produced by such splendid
artists as the Ambrosio Co. includes,
should prove superior to anything that
has yet been achieved in photo-drarna,
not excepting the marvellous produc-
ticn Of Quo Vadis, which is the reign
ing sensation of this country. The
Photo Drama Co. of New York com
prises wealthy and influential men, SO
an artistic and thoroughly enjoyable
presentation Of The Last Days of
|Pompeii may be expected.

FARGO TO HAVE
YOUNGEST DRIVER
YOUNGEST DRIVER OF A RACE
HORSE IN THE WORLD is JIM
ME SMITH OF CHICAGO, WHO
WILL DRIVE GRACE RED AT
MATINEE RACES.

Fargo has the youngest driver of a
race horse in the world in the person
of Little Jimmie Smith, who owns and
drives Grace Red. The little fellow
knows all the ms and out of driving on
the track and scores down with the
veterans in great shape.
He allows none of the old drivers to
get the start of him and on the Fourth
of July he won a race at Aneta and
again on the fifth came out and grab
bed the purse for the second time.
He has entered the mare for the
matinee races at the fair grounds Sat-
urday and will drive her himself. This
will be a real novelty for those who
attend. r4
He has entered in the 2:20 class and
says hat he will win if he can and If
he gets left the other drivers will
know they have been to a horse race.
Jimmy is a modest little nan and
when he saw the reporter writing in a
book he exclaimed, Say, mister, don't
put muffin in de paper. Any u could
drive Grace all you gotter do is to
hold de lines" ~ .
Notwithstanding his making light Of
the feat of driving at a gait of 2:20
or better, it is really wonderful for a
boy of his tender age.
In a workout at the track yesterday

last quarter being stopped in "a. He
is in fine shape and his owners expect
him to COZ the coin in the fr~ee-for-all
race ... .
He is entered in the 2:13 class at
Grand Forks and needs a bruising race
this week to get him up to that event
and he will be sent for all he is worth
in the free-fOr-au. PaderewSki will
try to make Ashland turn the local
track better than twelve and old Zip
Bang and L~adyheart can be depended
uRon to be right at their heels in the
event. "
The races will start promptly at 9
o'clock and if the weather holds good
a large crowd will be on hand. The
promoters have decided to make no
charge for the entering of vehicles
and autos n carriages and buggies
can be driven to the track side with
out extra charge.

from Northern Ohio
Big Shipment Of Balls and Heders Received From Ohio by
Hope Farmers
Were Selected by Field Agent Of Nerth Dakota Better Farm,

1t Is the First Large Shipment Of Dairy Stock That Has Been
in the State

A shipment of 1872 head of Hol-
stein stock, comprising pure bred
bulls, heifers. and high grades, a just
arrived at Hope, N. D.. These were
purchased for the farmers of that dis
trict through the North Dakota Bet
ter Farming association. w. A. Peck,
field agent of the association, was SEM
into northern Ohio last month to
purchase this stock. This is the first
large shipment of dairy stock that has
been made in Steele county and has
been made possible through M. B.
Cassell of the First National bank of
Hope. The shipment will be distributed
twenty-five OF thirty farmers
and should prove the basis OF the
fltnre dairying industry of that sec
ton. 1t is an indication of the interest
that the farmers of North Dakota are
taking in better farming methods and
is an evidence of the rapid changes
that are taking place. The North Da-
kota farmer will in the very near
future cease to rely upon the produc-

ton Of wheat and fax for his sole
income and will obtain much addi-
tional income through the use Of good
livestock, alfalfa, and corn.
-Four carloads Of short-horns and
Holsteins are to be brought into the
territory surrounding Velva and Ber-
gen, in McHenry county, in the very
near future. Mr.. Robbins, the repre-
sentative of the better farming assoc
citation in that district, has just made
arrangements for the purchase of that
number of head. These will all go
into the hands of farmers who are
thoroughly interested in livestock and
who are prepared to place their farms
under rotation and to secure a good
percentage of their income from prod
ucts other than the small grains.
With the recent shipments that have
been made into the state. practically
1900 head of livestock have been
brought into the state this spring
through the better farming associa-
ton.

GREAT LECTURE
PLEASED MANY
DR.. WILLIAM STURGEON OF ENG.
LAND SPOKE LAST NIGHT TO A
CROWDED HOUSE IN THE FIRST
BAPTIST CHURCH AND WILL BE
THERE AGAIN TONIGHT.

A very large attendance greeted DR..
William Sturgeon, the great English
preacher, last evening when he deliv-
cred his great address in the First
Baptist church and those who were
present were very much pleased at the
discourse. For he is a powerful speak
er and held the undivided attention OF
his hearers.
He had for his subject a most inter
estlng one: The Life and Work Of
Charles Haddon Spurgeon, who was
one of the greatest preachers that the
world ever knew, and many have read
his sermons, which while being deliv-
cred in England were printed in this
country.
For an hour and a half he spoke of
the great preacher whose relatives
he is. He gave a history of the family
for the past 200 years and said that for
many generations they had been
preachers. 1t was a grand lecture and
he held the closest attention of his
hearers.
He will speak this EVENING in the
same place and will take for his sub
ject, Advice to Married Folks and
Those About to Be Married. All are
most cordially invited to attend.

REAL ROMANCE
FROM LAND OF
MIDNIGHT SUN

SEATTLE, May 23.-That
little naked fellow who be-
gan his troublesome opera
tions way back in the Gar
den of Eden days, can sure
work wonders some times.
One of his worthiest works
had its next-to-last chapter
ending today when Paul
Patkotak, an 1S-year-old Es-
quimaux, sailed for Point
Barrow, the Arctic extrem-
ity of Alaska, to marry Miss
Alice Ahloolk, q native teach
err in the government school
there. Three years ago Paul
peeked through his body
and head encircling fur gar
ments at Alice ana asked her
to marry him. "Go get an
education" answered the
haughty Esquimaux enchant-
ress.
On the next boat the 10
year-old boy left for Seattle.
He came here wearing native
furs and unable to speak
English.
In the three years he's
been here he learned the lam
guage, got a pretty fair
start in bookkeeping and
picked up enough shorthand
to hold him a job most any
where.

TO LET
MATTER REST

The city commission is doing
nothing on the offer of the street

"We will not take the matter
up for some days until after the
people have had time to think it
over and begin to express them
Selves" said Mayor Seymour.
81 think the offer is not as
good as the company should
make" continued the mayor, but
he let slip the suggestion that he
thought at that It was better
than the city operating the line,
showing he still clings to his old
idea against municipal ownership
and operation.
