Rev. Findley Honored.

In speaking of dedicatory services
at Brooten, Nov. %, when the new
Union Presbyterian church at that
place was dedicated the Review thus
refers to Rev. F1ndley:
Rev. T. M. Findley, pastor in charge
for the past two years has labored
hard and faithfully and has spared
himself neither time, money nor labor
in making the erection of the Union
Presbyterian church in Brooten a pos
sibility. Rev. Findley is a grand old
man and is beloved by the people of
his congregation and they have been
willing and ready to cooperate with
so earnest, honest and level headed
man as Rev. Findley has proven him.
self to be. II q conveyance was not
at his disposal when making a trip
to friends OF the proposed church he
started out on foot and a twelve mile
walk was not too much for his cour-
age or strength. Rev. Findley has
been a faithful worker in the Presby-
terrain church for many years and the
church just dedicated here is the for
tieth church that he has had built and
the Review joins Rev. Findley's many
friends in wishing him many years of
good health, prosperity and happiness
SO that he may continue his splendid
work for many years to come and that

Brooten will be q strong influence for
good and the upbuilding and better

LOCAL OFFICERS OF. THE
LAW LAND BURGLARS

Dope Fiends Who 6urolarIzed Medical
Block Land In Jail.
Hugh Ruddy and Alfred Gilbertson
proved themselves detectives of no
mean ability, when they recovered the
overcoat and most of the dope which
was stolen from DR.. Porter's Office a
week ago last Sunday.
Suspicious of officers at the State
Farm were aroused, when they discov-
cred two of the inmates in possession
Of some drugs. The men claimed to
have received the dope from a couple
Of patients who had completed their
term and had been released from the
institution, the day before.
One Davenport, who was q patient
at the farm, and who was one of the
men under suspicion, was trouble
maker, and caused lot of disturb.
ance among the other inmates. Fin.
ally, coming to the conclusion that
his was hopeless case, he was re-
leased. Ruddy was notified of the
fact and went to the station when
Davenport was scheduled to leave for
the city.
Instead Of putting him on the train,
Ruddy took the man to his office,
where he and Gilbertson put him thru
third degree. He was the most in
nocent person imaginable, tho, and it
was impossible to get anything out Of
him. The officers changed their tao
tics, then, and told him, that Gunder-
son, one of his pals at the Farm, had
confessed all. This phased him a lit
tie, but still he disclaimed any knowl-
edge of the affair. Abandoning their
questioning Of Davenport, they put
him in a cell, and went out to the
Hospital Farm again. Here they ques-
toned the third member of the trio,
Phillips. He was the youngest of the
three, claiming to be but twenty years
Of age.
After little preliminary maneuver-
ing by the officials they came right
out and told Phillips that he was be-
ing made the goat" in the affair, that
Davenport and Gunderson were old
timers in the business, and that a re-
formatory sentence was hanging over
his head
This had the desired result and it
wasn't very long before the whole
story came out. Phillips offered to
go with them and show them where
the loot was hidden. Getting into the
car they went out to the Holzinger
farm, where Phillips said the coat
had been hidden in corn shock. Mr..
Holzinger had discovered the coat, and
it was turned over to the authorities.
Returning to the farm they left
Phillips in his cell and brought Gun
derson to the city and gave him a dose
of the third degree.
No satisfaction could be gotten out
Of Gunderson, so little strategy was
resorted to, with the result that he
came across with the story al
so, when he was told that Davenport
intended to turn states evidence, and
thus get away with light sentence.
The dope was found in five different
plants" at the State Farm. One was
near the aseptic tank, another in some
tile near the light plant, the third in
the corn crib, the fourth in the tun-
mel, and the last one in the mattress
on one of the beds.
The men were given a hearing In
Municipal court last Thursday and on
barge of petit larceny, Gunderson

was let out on parole.

HOME TALENT PLAY -
FRIDAY EVENING PLEASES

tours at Opera House Last

"Forgiven," Presented by Local ANA
tours at Opera House Last
Friday.
The home talent play produced at
the opera house last Friday evening
under the auspices of the Cosmos Club.
was successful in all respects.
But one drawback could be found,
that being the comparatively small
audience, that was in attendance. A
great number Of people from various
parts Of the county were on hand, and
Judging from the applause, and re-
marks heard at the conclusion of the
performance, the play was thoroly en-
joyed.
It is probable that many remained
away because the piece had been play
ed here previously, under a different
name, and it had also been shown in
motion pictures, under the name Of
Caprice" one of Mary Pickford's
earlier successes.
Mr.. and Mrs. Choate headed the
cast and their great ability in their
respective parts, went long way to-
ward making the play, the success
that it was.
Florence Kuntz. as Harriet Watson,
the merry Widow" and Edith Mel
son, as Edith Gordon. the society belle
each took their parts In fine shape, the
former taking the part of the occas-
ional flighty young woman Of the
world, who was looking for q husband,
| while the latter proved to be a real
belle Of the ball. with very change
able mind, on subjects pertaining to
matrimony.
Nigeria Rasmussen, as Mrs. Gordon,
was very good, her acting Of the
naughty mother, who was looking out
for the welfare Of her son, was every
thing that could be desired.
Homer Chase in the role Of Harry
Fairfield, was his own natural self
thruout, ana by his persistence, fin.
ally won Edith, the ever changeable.
Reynold Peterson, as the eccentric
Professor Perry, who specialized in
inventing burglar alarms, and who
taught Rose the why and wherefore
Of being a lady," handled his part ex-
cellently.
Russell Curran made a fine college
boy, in the part Of Wallie Gordon,
who persisted in falling in love with
his brother Jacks wife, and later
with Miss Ashton, but who was re-
lentlessly turned down.

Art Carlson as Jake Garland didn't
have a whole lot to do, but his work
showed that he knows something Of
farm life all right.
It was our privilege to play the
part Of Jack Gordon, SO under the cir
cumstances it wouldn't do for uG to
say very much.
Each member of the cast did well,
and there were very: few bitches In
the production, while it was necessary
to prompt once or twice, that is to be
expected in amateur productions.
The Cosmos Club realized q good1y
sum from the play, which can be used
handily, as the Club have moved into
their new quarters. -9t 80 :.

MAJORITY Is NOW TWO VOTES
Boosted 500 to 1000 Majority For
County Option Finally DwindIes
to Two Votes,

~ wv VVSS0s
The result of the county option
election, held in Meeker county June
IA, in which the drys won, stands, &C.
cording to decision of the Supreme
Court Friday.
The court, after reviewing the evi.
dence, finds that the drys polled a
majority Of the votes. The county
canvassing board reported that the
drys had 1858 votes and the vets
1914. William Schultz, a voter. ap-
pealed from this finding to the dis.
trict court, which found the drys had
1854 ballots and the vets 1905, and
dismissed the contest. The case was
appealed.
The Supreme Court determined that
1852 votes were in favor Of the drys
in a total Of 3,259 ballots cast and
that a majority of this total is 1880
so the drys had margin of two votes
to carry the election.-Dassel Anchor

MINING INSPECTOR ON
WAY TO MATANUSKA
Seems to Think That the Surveyors
Are Already at Work There
Preparing For Leases.

Sumner Smith, federal mining in
spector for Alaska, arrived on the
Alameda and will go to Anchorage on
the same boat, later proceeding to
Matanuska according to instructions
from Washington. Mr.. Smith does
not know the real reason for his be-
ing sent to the coal fields at the pres
ent time but seems to think it can
have no other meaning than to have
him present with the government
surveyors when they start the work
of surveying the coal fields into tracts
for leasing. He even seems to be
under the impression that the survey
ors are already at work there. Mr..
Smith has had busy season recently
inspecting the mines in the various
camps throughout the territory.

PLEASED WITH
SEWARD PEOPLE
GOVERNOR STRONG SAYS HE
NEVER NET WARNER VEL
COME ANYWHERE.

Casually, incidentally, Governor
Strong said this morning that the
kindness shown him by the people Of
Seward will last long in his memory.
81 am very thankful to the people of
Seward" he said, "and wish l could
tell them about it"
He was particularly pleased with
the idea of sending out the steamer
Santa Ana with the band and the
people to meet the incoming Victoria
on which he was. That was something
really new, he declared, and very
pleasant.
The governor has a tremendous
faith in the future of this part Of
Alaska. He says this in private con
versation even when he has no
intention of having it appear in
print. He is absolutely confident
that Seward will grow into fine city
quickly and that the larger it grows
the more activities and industries it
will draw towards it. He believes
that the fisheries in the neighboring
waters will develop immensely and
that fishing villages will spring up
along the coast as they are in Europe,
adding to the permanent population.
This is only one of the industries
which he expects to see develop fast
Of mining and agricultural develop
ment on a large scale he is fully con-
vinced, and he agrees with the idea
so often expressed in this paper that
the region holds possibilities which
will only come to light with the influx
and work of population.
The governor and Mrs. Strong leave
this evening on the Alameda for An
chOrage.
