RED MEN IN DRAMATICS.
Put on "The Case Against Casey" on
Opening Night of Fair.

| Red Men of Iroquois tribe, No. IL
and their associates in Winnetta council
No. 10, Degree of Pocahontas, usheret
| in their annual bazaar at Howland hal
last night with comedy dramaties ans
dancing. 1t was large crowd that saw
| the Red Men in 'sThe Case Against Casey,
a mock trial that teemed with udicrou:
situations, and it was larger crowd
that joined in the merry whirl of the
dance after court hours. There was the
usual display of well-stocked booths and
a wide variety of diversions for old and
young. The joint committee has every
reason TO feel gratified over the patronage
on the opening night and there is no
surer indication of continued patronage
tonight and tomorrow night than the
fact that the visitors last evening, for
the most part, seemed to feel they had
been royalty entertained and would be
back for another turn this evening. Both
the Red Men and the women of Poca-
hontas circle have a reputation for put
ting zip" of certain kind into their
annual joint bazaars and the case in
hand is no exception TO the rule.
"The Case Against Casey" was strong
ly cast and the participants, TO man,
did full justice to the parts. Imper-
sonations of many distinctive characters
were admirably drawn and the come
dians (most OF them were comedians)
allowed few opportunities to escape them
in exaeting a full measure of mirth from
their lines. The audience applauded lib
orally and the opinion prevailed that the
Red Men thespians did extremely well,
considering that it was their first ap
pearance in court.
The cast was composed as follows:
Judge, Alex Hall; clerk, William Hurry;
attorneys, Roy Mcdonald and Edward
Keefe; Casey, Peter Brown; Dolly Per-
<ins, Joseph Ceilings; jurors, Harry
lark, George David. John Mcdonald, Guy

Lawson, Alex. Clark, James Webster,
Frank Cardi and William Walker; wit
lesses, Alex. Clark, William Melville, Jo-
ieph Fraser, William lnnes and Alex.
Miller; policemen, Clark Kesson and Rich
Ird Massie.
