Roseate Pictures Painted o.
Canadian West Causing
Exodus From Ameri-
can Land.

Bloomington, ILL.,, March 2.--(By
Chicago Tribune Omaha Bee Leased
Wire. e.)-Paintipg an alluring picture
of agricultural prospects of Man
itoba, agents Of the Canadian gov
ernment have been at work among
tenant farmers of central Illinois
during the last winter and have per-
suaded large number of them that
the land all but flows with milk and
honey. .-y
Attractive figures for rent and
roseate assurances of huge yields
have had their effect, and special
train will start from this section on
Wednesday, with Brandon, Mani
toba, as the objective point. From
that city the prospectors will scatter
to various parts of the province. The
special will be made up of AZ cars
of household goods, implements for
farming, and live stock.
High Land Price Blamed.
Inquiry as to the cause for this
exodus develops that the high price
of central Illinois farm land is
largely responsible. Values have as
sumed staggering proportions since
the war. Ordinary farms that were
regarded as worth 5000 to $3.50 ar
acre before the. war, now are being
sold all the way from $500 to $500
an acre, while tracts with extra
choice Improvements are bringing
$500 to 5000.
Owners of this land with sudden
inflated values are naturally ask
ing higher rental Some of the ten
ants are remaining, while many 9TH
ers are seeking new locations in
Iowa and the other states of the
northwest, while a number are Sc
lecting Canada.
~ Canada Finances Trip.
The special to move March 8, is
being financed by the Canadian gov
ernment, according to report. Agents
of that government have made all
the arrangements for the transpor-
tation.
Central Illinois land owners are
agreed that the vacated farms will
be snapped up by other tenants and
that the departure will have no seri-
Gus effects. They maintain that the
higher prices received for live stock
and all other farm products war;
rant higher rental, and that tenants
will find their profits fully as great
this year as in the past.
They further aver that the we'll
known record of central Illinois for
scarcity of crop failures is being
overlooked by those who are emf
grating.
They believe that most Of the
wanderers will return.

"We have a special statute that

Should deaths occur from wood

AT THE
THEAT ERS
xyOU recall the old song There's

! y
| Y never law OF God or man runs
l. north of S3?" It's all wrong,
soft-spoken Jesuit priest in his
black soutane and shevel hat repre-.
sents the one and a burly Irish troop
er in the scarlet jacket of the "R. N.
| w. M. P" represents the other, and
between the two they not only sur
round the murderer, but they per-
plex the soul of the little girl until
she agrees to give over the, wild
faith of her young life and learn the
catechism. This all comes out in
the unfolding of the tale that in
wolves Bruce Norton and Rose Bo-
cion. He is young engineer, oAe
of the gang that is building rail-
road through the great northwest
timber country, in which she has
been raised with only such restraints
as may be found at Hudson Bay
company's trading post. She is
beautiful, untutored, primitively pas
sionate, and when the man she loves
tries to escape the pursuit of the
famous Canadian police force, she
helps him and involves the whole
thing in considerable snarl. The
way out is indicated, rather than
enacted, but the vague impression is
left that they will live happily ever
after.
This all takes place in Tiger
Rose" the Willard Mack melodrama
which David Belasco has elaborately
mounted and sent to US for very
short stay at the Brandeis theater,
where it was welcomed last night
Miss Maria Ascaraga. unknown to
local fame, gives virile life to the role
of the girl. She is capricious, willful,
diSingenuous, artless and sophisti-
Gated almost all at once. And final
ly, when she pits her own straight
way of thinking against the logic Of
the strong men around her she
shows her helplessness in her grief
and in no other portion of her work
does she give more satisfactory
reason for Mr.. Belasco's having en-
gagged her for the role.
Bernard J. McOwen plays the role
of Michael Devlin, the relocated
ulinion of the law, with excellent
Judgment. His little temptation to
strut in presence of the girl he loves
is fine bit of acting, just the bit
of masculine vanity by which it is
hoped to attract the coy female. This
is we'll set off against the exhibition
of the sleuth on the trial and the Of
ficer of the law, whose oath and
duty held him closer than any other
obligation or inclination. The fac
tor, the doctor, the young engineer,
the visitor from the state, the half
breed fiddler and the old padre are
all well presented
Among other scenic triumps, MIR.
Belasco provides a rainstorm that
would make an Albertan feel at
home. 1t compares only with the
well-remembered storm Harrison
Grey Fiske provided in MARY of

acme of stage realism in the line.
