GREAT CHARACTER
WORK is DISPLAYED
In "LOMBARDI LTD

No comedy in the last twenty years
has brought to the native stage such
as splendid variety of distinctly new
and amusing characters as Oliver
Morosco's latest fun and fashion sue
cess. lombard, Ltd" in which Leo
GARLIC, Grace Valentine and the
original cast will be seen at the Met
ropolitan Monday. July Z.
While Frederic and Fanny Hatton,
the authors, have contributed many
big hits to the American stage such
as THE Great Lover" Upstairs and
Down." and Years of Discretion"
lombard, Ltd. "has proved not only
their best efforts at brilliant comedy
writing, but their finest work in, the
matter Of character drawing fact
that he had much to do with the UNI
usual success of the piece.
In the role Of Tito lombard, in
which Mr.. Carrillo appears. they have
for the first time brought to the stage
the character of a fashionable, for
eign dressmaker, now found in almost
every block on Fifth avenue. Little
is known to the public OF the back
stage" workings Of these fashionable
New York shops and little of the
smart customers know of the Joys and
sorrows Of the mannequins, the sales
women. the seamstresses, or the many
others employed in the making Of
these expensive creations any more
than they know or understand the
real temperament of The genius who
first creates them. In the picturing
of such happenings and the transfer
ring of such characters to the stage
the Hattons have presented a COM
posite picture Of the Bendels, the
Hicksons, the Tapes, and other
famous creators and their establish
ments and written a comedy Of rare
worth.

POLICE turn
PASTOR LOOSE
Arrested Monday Night on
Complaint of Other Deaf
Mute Of City.

Rev. c.. o. Olson. arrested by the
police Monday night. was released to-
day after an investigation of his activ-
tiles by Odin OVERLY chief of-police.
and r. j. Purcell, police magistrate.
He has been soliciting funds here,
it seems. in the interest Of the deaf
and dumb.
Olson, who claims to be deaf, can
apparently write English but can only
speak Norwegian, and at first appar-
emily tried to make the police believe
that he was also dumb. He soon re-
covered from this affliction. however,
and loosed a torrent Of Norwegian
upon the officers.
He was kept at the city police
station over night. and this morning
was given a hearing before Police
Magistrate R. j. Purcell. The case
was continued until this afternoon for
further investigation.
Olson was arrested at the request
of other deaf mutes of the city who
told the police he was a fakir.

REIGN OF KING
BOOZE IS OVER
Obsequies held in Due Form
Monday Evening at Red
Lake Falls.

Grand Forks people awoke this
morning to the first day of nation
wide prohibition.
AS far as this city was concerned
the passing of King John Barleycorn
was without incident. as saloons have
long been an unknown quantity here.
The chief mourners for the deceased
monarch ~journeyed to Red Lake Falls,
the nearest point in his dominions,
and there took part in obsequies.
In that connection it is understood
that several of the proprietors of
thirst joints at the late oasis have
amassed enough during the last week
or two to make them Independent for
life.
One Red Lake Falls saloonkeeper is
said to have recently banked 800, 900,
the profits of his business during the
last week or two. 1t is also narrated
hat thirsty consumers paid $4,000
last Saturday over the counter of a
Red Lake Falls concern for liquor
for his own personal use.
D~iscounting to some extent the re-
ports received, there is little doubt
hat a tremendous business has been
done at Red Lake Falls during the
last few weeks.
Monday all the saloons had dis
posed of their stocks long before the
closing hour came.

Convention.

Q THE T
Plans Made by Church to
Welcome Home the Re-
turned Soldiers.

Rarely has an annual meeting been
as busy as is the convention of the
North Dakota district of the Norwe-
gian Lutheran Church of America,
now in session at the auditorium in
this city,-for urgent business matters
demand a constant attention on the
part of the delegates. Time and again
1t has been necessary to open the SEES
sions earlier than at first planned,
and on several occasions addresses
n lectures have been postponed un-
sure OF work coming before the con-
vention.
That happened, for instance. this
morning when Prof. vigness was
scheduled to introduce the subject
of christian Education for a gen.
eral discussions: the volume of bust
ness transactions was so overwhelm-
Ing that a postponement of Prof. Wig
ncsS's appearance was made. The
convention is the first regular annual
meeting of the North Dakota district
which fact accounts for the presence
OF so many new problems that require
consideration and solution.
Services Precede Session.
n special service to be held for
ministers had been planned for last
night, but did not AXE place until
this morning at $3.50 when Rev. L. l..
Lasseson preached the sermon which
was listened to by upward of a hun
dred ministers from every section of
the state.
One hour later the business session
was started, and reports We're read
from the home mission committee, a
most important sub-organization of
the district church.
1t was decided to employ a travel
ing missionary for the special pur-
pose of helping out in congregations
where a ministerial vacancy occurs;
it appears that while the number Of
congregations is rapidly growing. it is
difficult to find an adequate num-
Der of ministers. and District Presi-
dent D. D.. Yivisaker took occasion to
mention in his annual report that
while % new ministers took up work
within the district during the past
year, % left or died, so that there was
an actual gain of but six. The scope
