faVorite, as veil as the preferred
play of many of his followers
"Peilias ct Melisande" was produc
ed by the Maeterlincks in tn cir cas-
tie, the ancient monastry of st.
Wandrllle, and seats were readily
and eagerly bought at $50 each
This is the piece that Mrs. Bell,
herself a reader and elocutionist of
note, has chosen for her part. Two
musical selections, by talented local
performers will also be rendered,
and an evening OF refined enjoyment
IS promised to all who attend.
An admissin fee of fifty cents for
adults and twenty-five cents for
children has been fixed, and the
whole proceeds viii be devoted TO
the benefit of the American Falls
Public Library Association.
After the program the ladies have
prepared TO sell few bags and
boxes of homemade candy, also
for the library's benefit, and all
are urged TO bring a few dimes for
this purpose.

BECHTOLD Is TURNED LOOSE.

Blackfoot Jury.

William Bechtold. who was arrest

saulted the two young daughters OF
Joseph Wagner, was found not gull
ty after trial in Blackfoot yester-
day. Mr.. Wagner and two daugh.
ters went to the trial and testi-
fled against Bechtold, who bears a
bad reputation here and in the old
country.
Bechtold does not speak English
and a German inmate of the Black
foot Jail, who was also Bech told's
cell mate, was used as an interpre-
ter. Several times Mr.. Wagner in
terrupted the court to protest that
that the Interpreter was not re-
peating the questions and answers
correctly.
The result of the verdict is a
complete surprise here, as it was
considered that there was a clear
case against the accused man. Bech-
told was accused with having raped
two little girls. one I and the other
y years of age. He was tried for
the assault upon the older of the
girls. Mr.. Wagner says that he
will have Bechtold arrested for the /.
assault upon the younger girl, and
