Fanny Davenport reached the zenith Of
her career when she assumed the DIM
cult task Of interpreting the Sardou
heroines, with which the divine Sarah
had held spellbound the play going pub
lie OF two continents,
1t was In the DAILY production OF
"P!aue" that Fanny Davenport rose to
stellar prominence. When she nego-
tiated for the American rights for the
Sardou plays she had planned that even
Bernhardt herself should be denied the
privilege OF appearing I'm the roles she
created In Paris) In any part OF the
United States and Canada.
! When Bernhard was Informed Of
these negotiations she was 30 enrased
mat she issued an ultlmatum In which
abe vowed she would never appear In q
Ssrdou play In her own country 10 the
agreement with her American rival was
allowed to become actually operative.
But wiser counsels prevailed. The
business representatives OF the now es-
tranxed tragic queens got together. and
In some way II was arranged that Sarah
was granted the privilege OF playins
wherever she pleased, provided she did
not present sardou's plays In the Eng

This srrangemsnt did not heal the
wounds inflicted In the earlier strife.

true American spirit to show her su-

investment and that he presents his applica-

will be forfeited, and he may be prosecuted
criminally.
No doubt there will be quite q number of
successful applications cancelled, as this
work will be very thorough, and if there are
any who sWoI-e falsely, it ii almost a certainty
tnay will be found out, so that those who
thought they could fool the government will

Provision is also made tor the cancellation

paid when the land is filed upon il any per-

Joseph Proulx Pardoned.

After serving II years in the Deer
Lodge penitentiary Joseph Proulx
was pardoned today by Governor
Stewart for a crime which the execu-
tive doubts Proulx committed.
Mildred r.. Tressler then 16-year.
old girl, was herding sheep IA miles
from Malta, then in Chouteau county
the afternoon of May 8, 1901. Ac-
cording to her story a man rode up,
CARRIED III a full suit of buckskin, and
wearing long hair and long beard,
covered her with a revolver, forced
her to dismount, assaulted her and
rode away. She went home and told
this story. The strange man was
never seen by neighbors either before
or after the alleged assault.
Joseph ProulX was in jail in Wiscon-
sin year later, serving time for
some minor Otfense. Another pris-
oner with whom he had Qlarreled
told the sheriff lroulN had told him
he was wanted in Montana for rape.
The sheriff communicated with Mon-
tana authorities, and the Chouteau
officials believed ProulX might be the
man they wanted. A photograph of
IroulX was shown the Tlessler girl
and though he appeared smooth sha-
ven, she said he was the man.
At his trial ProuIx declared he was
not given Il fair deal and that his law
