that reads like romance and is. for
sooth, a romance. 1t carries him all
the way from a Salvation Army spiel
err TO a magnate's chair.
Today Hap is one OF the most sue
cessful minor league magnates He
owns a billiard hall in Los Angeles,
possesses a richly paying grogshop
and rides around in six-cylinder
machine. He is a successful busi-
ness man and live wire But he
certainly has gone through the mill
Yet Hogan has yet TO see his first
major league game. He thinks they
can learn and play baseball in the
minors. Judging from ihs success.
Happy is right.
He comes from a wealthy family in
California, but set out early to carve
his own fortune. From the remarks
at the beginning Of this thrilling
story he has been a most successful
carver.
During his early days Hap wander
ed south into Arizona and was in that
State when things were as wide open
as the day is long and the altitude
high. Gambling was run on the first
floor, and Hogan became a faro deal
er.
Next we find him preaching on
street corners in various cities Of
California. He wore the uniform Of
the Salvation Army, and we have au-
thentic word that he was some talk
err Then things broke badly for him
In a business way and he went to
work as a dishwasher in restaurant.
It wasn't swell enough to be called a
cafe.
During all this time Hap had con
Stunning desire ID be a ball player. He
I fnaiir got his chance. He happened
g e tr san Jose one day when the
local team was tackling Santa Clara
College Hap went up 70 the manager
+ e. thH san Jose squad and offered him
3 DOLLAR and a half to catch. The
novelty q the remark caught the
managers fancy. and he took the

entire battle. and since that time has
been a member Of the profesh.
Hal Chase was discovered by
Hap The latter found him pulling
off startling plays on a college team

A love of the big top" with it's

SUFFRAGE CAUSE
IS GROWING

Mrs. Clara L. Darrow, president OF
the Votes for Women league of North
Dakota. returned to Fargo the first of
the week after an extended trip
When seen last evening by a Forum
reporter, Mrs. barrow said:
1T has been the most successful trip
that our workers have yet made. Ev-
erywhere we found the suffrage spirit
growing, and the voters are taking an
active interest in the subject. Our state
constitution provides that a majority
OF the voters voting, not a majority Of
dorse suffrage, before the women of
the state can nave the ballot. That
Joker makes 1t necessary for every
single voter to take an interest in the
matter. We are devoting ourselves to
stirring UP interest rather than to
converting people, for we believe that,
If the voters Of North Dakota Just set
themselves to thinking seriously on a
problem, they will, in the end decide
rightly. Our chance for victory lies in
getting the matter before the people,
and the people themselves, even to
those who are not on our side, are help
ing US with that. Everywhere one
finds suffrage a subject of discussion
and consideration.
W. had been warned that in a num-
Der of places we would not find a bit of
Interest in suffrage. Those were among
the places where we were most warmly
received. In Beach, for example. we
had been warned to look for a frost.
The long line Of autos that met US at
the train, the delicious luncheon served
US. and the splendid crowd thu at
exactly the sort of frost I should like
to meet every day. We left a flourish
ing league, with fifty members to start
on and the citizens of Beach are plan
ming to spread the suffrage doctrine
through all the country around them"
What sort of people are interested
in s%uffrage?" asked the reporter.

things about the m~ovement-we are
supported by people of every sort, ex-
cept the liquor interests. In Beach,
for example, the officers and members
ton, of every club. and of every clique
in the town. Nor are the suffragists
limited to women, not by any means.
There are enthusiastic men belonging
to every league in the state. In Bel
field, a pastor gave us the use Of the
Congregational church, sayhing that he
considered suffrage a cause to which
the church should give its heartiest
support. Another of our warm friends
and supporters is a Catholic priest in
Dickinson. The farm women are very
much interested in the question. Near
Hurdsfteld there is a woman who takes
suffrage literature to distribute every
time she goes to market.

help them a great deal in winning a

THE GRAND.

The Grand is becoming more popular
each day owing to the exceptionally
strong plays that Manager Fowler is
securing from the Famous Players
company. For the last half Of this
week the noted American artist, Cyril
Scott Is to- be seen in The Day Of Days.
Louis Joseph Vance based his exciting
novel, The Day of Days, on oriental
fatalism, which assigns to every man
his day OF days, wherein he shall range
the skies and plumb the abyss of his
destiny, alternately it's lord and leave.
Cyril Scott, who won such sensational
success in The Prince Chap, The Lot
terry Man, Royal Mounted, and other
state triumphs, is ideally cast in this
production as a young bookkeeper
named Perceval, who has lea an I'M
eventful life until fate chooses him as
the central character in, n Of the
strangest plots ever woven about the
life of the metropolis. The story eve
lops into a panorama of emotions, a
Kaleidoscope drama with New York at
night as a Background. Perceval be-
comes the hero of a fascinating and
fantastic chain of adventures, that only
end as the clock denotes the termina-
tion. of his day of days.
If you wish to spend a nice cool at
t~ernoon, remember the Grand has a
matinee daily.

THE THEATRES
THE ORPHEUM.

The bill at the Orpheum this week is
exceptionally good, having as a leading
attraction, Stanley's seminary girls, a
company composed of eleven people.
Miss Madeline Dupont, one Of the mem
bers, was in the disastrous ~Iroquois
fire of Chicago a number of years ago.
The chorus is good, he scenery pretty
and the gowns attractive.
Wynn g. Ware, the Mutt and JEFF of
vaudeville, one being six foot six and
the other four DOT four, have a COM
edy sketch in which many novelty
musical instruments are used.
The Twirling Talbots present an Eu-
ropean novelty gymnastic act, and a
number Of feats are performed which
display great strength and remarkable
muscular development.
The Orpheumscope as usual is highly
entertaining.
