Prays For Hughes

Chas. N. Pray, republican can
didate for U. S. Senator and
Frank J. Edwards, republican
candidate for governor opened
what was termed the republican
campaign in Fallon County last
Friday afternoon with a little
speaking a t the Play House.
With a good crowd Of local dem
ocratic believers and a b O d Y
guard of war horses from Baker,
the crowd finally assumed the
proportions of a meeting of the
elan and the speakers were ably
introduced by our fellow-towns
man ". W. Palmer. Mr.. Pray
devoted the most of his time at
tempting to slur the Wilson ad-
nllnistration and the rest of it to
boosting Mr.. Pray. But not so
with Edwards. His entire time
was taken up with what Il have
DONE" 10 hints whatsoever hav-
ing been given of what he had
not done. Mr.. Edwards remarked
many times that his time was
very limited and that he wo,1]d
liked to have gone into details
concerning what he termed the
denlocratlc failure of the state
administration. In al places
where Edwards has spoken so
lar he has made practically the
same excuse for not going into
details, tut to us it seems that if
Edwards knows all these crooked
moves that he pretends to know,
it would certainly bring him more
votes if he explained these de-
talIs during the time he wastes
telling how he would like to do
so, From here the party went
70 Baker where they held another
similar meeting III at evening
when MIR. Edwards still insisted
sAat his time Wss ve:y valuable
and tnat he could not say any
thing more than I'm the guy
for governor. even if | couldn' t
handle that bunch of gamblers
when ! was mayor of Helena.

BEM|DJI BOY
SECURES H0N0RS
Glenn A. Thompson Awarded Scholar
ship; Establishes Unprecedented
Record at East Grand Forks.

East Grand Forks, Minn., May 9.
Glenn A. Thompson of Bemidji, by
obtaining the highest class standing
of the boys enrolled in the local high
school has won scholarship
in either Hamline, Carleton or
Manchester college, according to an
announcement made today by Super
intendent F. E. Lurton.
In the local final examinations,
Thompson received exceptionally
high marks and is now certain of
graduation. In class standings he
ranks fifth, four girls having re-
ceived higher averages.
The record established by Thomp-
son is unprecedented in local school
annals. Entering the East Grand
Forks high school late in the term,
he was forced to make up the work
which he had missed during the first
semester. He has worked his way
through the final year of his high
school career by employment in the
Hotel Dacotah at Grand Forks. He
recently accepted position in the
editorial department of the Grand
Forks Herald and plans on spending
the summer months in that city.
Mr.. Thompson has not decided
whether or not he will take advan-
tage of the scholarships, as he had
previously planned on entering the
North Dakota university next fall.

SPECTATORS not

ON STAGE AT PLAY
Shakespeare's Day Privilege Not to

HATS MUST BE TAKEN
OFF AND. NO SMOKING
Comedy of Errors" to Be Given at
Grand Theater Friday After
noon and Night.

In Shakespeare's day, spectators
were allowed to sit on the stage at
the theater during performances.
They occupied stools and smoked.
They kept on their hats If they want
ed to.
Since space on the stage of the
Grand theater is limited, spectators
will not be granted these privileges
at the comedy of Errors" the class
play of the Senior class of the Be-
midi high school which will be given
Friday afternoon and night. =.-
To Be Elizabethan.
But in every other way the per-
'formances Friday will be as nearly
in the Elizabethan manner as pos
sible There will be no scenery save
the plan back-drop. The curtain
will remain up between the acts.
Spectators must imagine the scenery
from tips let fall by the players in
their speeches. This is in accord
ance with Shakespeare's day when
the stage settings were suggested,
not reproduced in full.
Boys Violate Custom.
At the University of Minnesota
where this same comedy was given
last week, all the actors were men.
Women we're not permitted upon the
English stage until 1860. But the
Senior boys of the Bemidji high
school have decided to violate this
custom and are allowing some Of the
fair sex to take parts.
1t is expected that the music fur
nished by Burchard's orchestra will
consist of the good old English bal
lands, which were at the height of
their popularity in Shakespeare's
day. There will be a special pro-
gram of music between each act.
Many tickets are being sold for
the play. The admission charge at
the evening performance will be so
cents and for the matinee 10 and Is
cents.
