Band Makes Hit. -
The Workman band, under the lead.
ership Of Director Jameson, made a
decided hit with tie men at the pen,
and their numbers we're loudly APP
pIauded. Miss Aline Potter. the solo
list, who sang at tlc concert last Sun
dag evening, sang again al the penl-
tertiary circus yesterday aud was en-
cored several times by the men.
The whole performance was great
ly enjoyed, and a sincere vote of
thanks was rendered 10 Mr.. Workman
and all the members Of his show.
Following the performance Ward
en- Talcott invited all the performers
to dinner and it is safe to say it was
as unique an experience for them as
was the circus for the men.
Men App'eciat;ve.
No players ever had a more appre,
ciative audience than that of yester-
day. No players eve received more
hearty applause and no audience ever
enjoyed a performance more. Men
have been confined behind prison
walls, for periods ranging all the way
down from 20 years, were present,
witnessing their first circus in that
period of time.
Any number OF the men actually
wept after the players left, and War
den Talcott stated that no perform
ance ever given at the prison made
such a decided Impression On his
Ichargcs.

First Circus Euer Held ~
Within Penitentiary Walls

For the first time in the history
Of this state, and more than likely
for the first time in the history OF
the entire country, a circus perform
ance was given within the walls of
a penal institution yesterday. G. A..
WCrtham, manager OF the WORKMAN
shows, transported a large part Of his
show to the state ~penitentiary yes
terday morning and put on a private
performance for the men confined
there. ......
A complete and most crcditable
enc ring circus performance was Civ.
en- in the pcnitentiary baseball park,
and to say that the men enjoyed it
would never convey an idea Of the
appreciation they feel.
Numerous Attractions.
The whole WOrtham carnival band
accompanied by Miss Aline Barter,
the soloist. made the trip to the peni,
Tertiary in a tally-hO. The trained
elephants, dogs and ponies, from the
various animal shows were taken
along, as well as the fancy trick hors-
cs from the Society Horse show.
The far-famed horses, Arabia" and
"Prcsidcnt Wilson, and "Snowfight,'
the horse that poses, all made the
trip and we're a much enjoyed part of
the entertainment.
Fred Collier gave some wonderful
exhibitions of Roman and trick rid

"Sharpshooter" Hayes, and Princess
Garcia the little Filipino midget,
helped to make the circus a big sue

To ERECT BRIDGE
ON LITTLE MUDDY"
Assurance Is Given That Original
Route of Red Trail Will New
Be Followed.

Every assurance is given the people
Of North Dakota by George n. kenl-
s:on, official booster for the Red Trail,

Final assurance of the fact was Civ

missioncrs of Billings county, in SEES
sion at Mcdora Thursday, advertised
for bids for the construction Of a
bridge across the Little Missouri near
Medcra. The lack Of a bridge at Me-
dora was the only stumbling block,
and for some time it was believed the
National Parks Highway association
would change the route on that &C
count.
The subscription campaign started
by Mr.. Remission has been SO success
full, however, that all doubts as to
the route have been dispelled.
Plans for Bridge.
The bridge plans and specifications
were submitted to the county commits
sioners as prepared by state. engineer
Bliss OF North dakota, which plans
comprise a steel bridge on concrete
piers OF about 400 feet span, the esti-
mated cost Of which is between ST.
600 and $4,000, and with approaches
will run into $4,000. The major por-
ton Of the mol.ey has already been
pledged to the National Parks Trans

guarantee that is before them the
county commissioners had no hest.
fancy at all in going On record as vot-
ing for the erection of this bridge.

GERMANS PUBLISH
 SECRET REPORTS
Evidence Submitted That England Pursued Ambitious Foreign
 Policy

Berlin. August 17.--tBy Wireless to Tuckerton. )-Thel Norddeutsche Allge- ,neine zeitung published further se- rret reports prepared by Belgian min isters at European capitals prior to tine war and found by the Germans in Brussels. The documents have to do with the Moroccan crisis. Reviewing them, the Overseas agency says:
 The Belgian minister at Berlin gave enc more illustration of the spirit which animated the British foreign policy, as shown in his report made OH December G. 1911. concerning the plan for African compensation which Sir Edward Grey, the British foreign minister, indirectly offered to Ger many
 Are these, perhaps. our possessions which he wants to hukster. according to the principles of the new interna : tional law practiced in London and un- fortunately in other places-Morocco, "ripoli and Persian" the minister wrote. He recalls the strange over lures made by Colonel Barnadiston, then British military attache at Brus- sells. to the Belgian general, Dem earme.
 Publication of these reports is caus- ing a growing sensation because they furnish documentary proof that Eng land. under King Edwards leadership, followed a determined and ambitious foreign policy, as told already. in 1911 to provoke war. while Germany made peace possible by yielding in the face of French violations of treaty rights.

The funeral party, including Mrs Frank and several Atlanta friends of the family. who will ac- company the body, was guarded carefully by the police until the train left the Terminal station.
 Mrs. Frank appeared at the train unassisted and showed no serious effects of her ordeal of last night and today. She chatted with mem bers of the party before boarding the train. Several policemen sur rounded Mrs. Frank and her friends and refused to allow any one close enough to converse with them.
 The body was taken from the un- derial<ing establishment where 1t had lain since late this afternoon surrounded by the 70 policemen. They guarded the wagon bearing it until it was placed on the train and then watched the car until the train departed.

 Yarbrough's Statement
 Following the controverty, which was the lveliest and most sensational of the day. Representative Yarbrough made the following statement to The Age-Herald correspondents:
 The committee some days ago. as is remembered. voted to report the Gorgas bill, which has divided the doctors of Alabama into two highly partisan camps, favorably When some mornings after ward the bill did not appear on the call ender, many demanded of me the reason. I replied that in all probability the con- gestion of mills, as reported by the com mttee. had temporarily caused it to lose place. Other mornings passed and the Gorgas bill did not appear. So today asked the chairman why the bill had not been put on the calender, and he re- piled that it had been stolen, that his ef- fects had been rifled. and that this bill alone of many others in his possession, had been removed. demanded to know if 1t had not been the duty of the chair man to report the theft to me as the au- thor of the bill. He replied that he had made report to the speaker of the house and that the speaker had advised him to duplicate the bill and so report it. I then demanded of the committee to know if 1t had not been the duty of Represent tative Johns to inform me, and the com mittee. judged. agreed that had not been treated with the proper considera- tion."
