At least one Of the big producing

The selection Of this city for the

10 be q much greater compliment to

plays here. The reason 70 that q
ever for the New York production

The big compliment for washington

tised throughout the country by the

which the vitagraph Company Is
working in making arrangements for
the showing Of Anita stewsrtin THE

lease date of the film in my other

president OF the Vitagraph Com
pany, states he IL particularly
anxious to show this actress In
role that requires a variety of lights

that reason this play Is said to be
the most important production In
which Miss Stewart has appeared.
The presentation OF the play at
the Casino before 1t has even been
privately exhibited in the Vitagraph
projection room. and one month be-
fore the date fixed for It's release
elsewhere, is regarded by local ex-
hibitors as a big compliment to the

CONRAD FEIG.

Conrad Feig, of whose death brief
mention was made last week, passed
away Wednesday, Oct. 4. Deceased
was one of the pioneer settlers of the
township Of Harrison, having resided
there for the past 46 years. An at
tack of pleurisy, and with his old age,
fastened his death. He was born in
Rheinpfalz, Bavaria, Germany, on
Dec. %, 1929, and was 86 years,
months and II days old at the time
of his death. He came to the United
States in 1859, landing at New Or
leans, and came to Minnesota in 1860,
and settled in Minneapolis. Here the
family lived for 10 years and in 1870
came to this county and settled In
Harrison, where the family have since
made their home. Mr.. Feig was mar
ried in Germany to Anna Marie Hekel
on July 4, 1859, and she together
with the following children are left
to mourn the death of the departed
one: John Of Willmar, George H. of
Portland, Ore, Mrs. Fred Wester-
kamp of Springfield, Mimi, and Mrs.
Henrietta Ziehl, Mrs. VIM. Rieff and
Edward Feig of Harrison. One son,
Henry, died some time ago. Mr.. Feig
pursued the occupation of farming un-
til IS years ago, and since then his
son, Edward has been in charge of
the farm. The old couple have con-
tinued to make their home with their
son on the farm. They celebrated
their 50th wedding anniversary on
July 4, 1909.
Deceased was a charter member of
St. John German Lutheran church of
Harrison. The funeral was held on
Saturday with services at the home
at 1870 and later at the German Luth-
eran church in Harrison, Rev. Rath-
ert officiating in the Germans and
English languages. All the children
were present at the funeral with the
exception Of George Feig of Portland
Mr.. Feig is also survived by 26 grand.
children and 10 great grandchildren
The pail bearers consisted of six OF
the grandsons: Herbert, Hugo, Ed.
ward, Jr., Fred and Theodore Feig
and Arthur Ziehl. The family has
the sympathy of the community in
their bereavement.-Atw Press.

This was said plainly. A fash of an

the unknown, and had a glimpse of
terrible past in the life of this man.
Not only had he put himself beyond
the pale of human laws, but he had
made himself independent Of them,

word. quite beyond their reach! Who.
then, would dare to pursue him at the
bottom Of the sea when on it's surface
he de6ed all attempts made against
him? What vessel could resist the
shock Of his submarine monitor? What
cuirass, however thick, could withstand
the blows of his spur? No man could
demand from him an account of his
actions. God-if he believed in one

the sole Judges to whom be was an
