Fortune Hunter
Going Big
RUSH FOR TICKETS PROVES
POPULARITY OF DRAMATIC
CLUBS PRESENTATION.

Tickets for the Fortune Hunter
which is the offering at the Armory
Wednesday evening, were sold with
in an hour after being put on sale and
nearly twice the number of reserved
seats could have been sold had they
been available. The Fortune Hunter
is being presented by the Dramatic
Club of Redwood Falls as benefit for
the women's clubs Of the city, these
clubs needing money to defray ex-
penses of the June Federation meet
ing. The fact that every one of the
seventy-fve club women in the city
was working her hardest to sell ten
or more tickets, may have something
to do with the phenomenal ticket sale.
Seen in dress rehearsal, the Fortune
Hunter is big success and there is
every reason to believe that the large
number attending will not be in any
way disappointed. The cast includes
many of the best of the amateur ac-
tors of the city.

these arrangements having been re-
quested by Mr.. Powell during his last
illness.
Milton E. Powell was born in New

until 1858. He then came with his
parents to Minnesota and later went
to Sparta, Wisconsin where he locat-

of the Civil War at which time he en-
tered the service of the union and
served throughout the war. After
the war he renewed his studies at
Sparta and was admitted to the bar
in 1865. He practised law two years
until the spring of 1867 when he NOV
ed to Redwood Falls where he made
his home until his death. He pursued

sented by the students of the high
school at the Armory Friday evening
of last week under the direction of
Miss lone Pickle, supervisor of the
department of music. The orchestra
which played the score was directed
by Geo. Bittrich, who has had charge
of the orchestra since it's organization.
Leading solo parts were well sung
by Miss Regina Kelly of Milroy who
sang Josephine, Harold Starr as
Ralph Rackstraw and Miss Bonnibell
Swan as Buttercup. Other solo parts
were sung by Margaret Arnold, STAN
ley Golden, Earl Powers, John Evans,
Harry Walter and Percy Warner.
The choruses of sailor lads and mid
dy girls were very effective. All
those participating had been thorough
ly trained in their parts and the en-
tire presentation went through with
very creditable smoothness. Some of
the voices were not sufficiently strong
to carry the parts effectively, but all
the singers showed faithful work and
careful training.

Red Wing Wins IN
Carleton Finals
FOUR THOUSAND WITNESS
DOWNFALL OF MADISON IN
BIG DISTRICT MEET.

Mortified, Mimi, March 18.-Red-
wing today was the possessor of the
state high school basket ball cham
pionship, having wrested that honor
from Madison in the final game of the
tournament here last night. The
score was thirty-four to twenty-seven.
Redwing was forced to come from
behind to win, trailing its lighter op-
ponent until the final quarter of the
game when squirt netted the cham
pions thirteen points against Madi-
sons four.
The outstanding star of the contest
was Hendrickson, Madison forward.
Approximately 1000 spectators
witnessed the game.
Redwing ran true to all expecta-
tions in the state high school bas-
ketball tournament ats Carleton col
lege last night at eight o'clock and
won from Madison high, thirtyfour
to twenty-seven in a red hot battle.
| Redwing was the popular favorite
for a title at the beginning OF the
tourney and earned an excellent
claim to the title. That team played
the toughest aggregations in the
whole list and beat them. In their
start they were called upon to meet
the great little quint from Crook
ston and had to go the limit to get
decision. In the next game with
Sandstone, the Redwings had a cinch
and ran up "a whopper of score
just to show how it was done. Then
came the Duluth game with its over
time period and desperate fight all
the way. Duluth was the only team
in the tournament to head the outfit
in scoring during game although
Crookston ran up to tie toward
the end Of her game. Last night it
was expected that Redwing would
have soft picking but the Madison
quint, whose work had been sur
prise all the way through gave the
mighty champions the go of their
lives.
First Bracket Easier.
Upon inspection it seems that the
first bracket of eight the teams OF
which Mankato was one. was the
easier one of the two. Wadena was
doped before the tourney as the
strong one of that lot but by the
time Mankato had cleaned house
with Johnson high, the talk centered
on the Scarlet and it was the sur
prise of the year when Madison beat
the Blakeslees. New Ulm and St.
Peter, two of the touted strong ones
played poorly in the first two games
Thursday and were easily eliminat-
ed. Madison played Little Falls in
the same string but the work OF
neither team was impressive and at
ter that game it was considered q
cinch that Mankato would be lead
ing the ultimate finalists by not less
than fifteen points. Mankato looked
like the grapes of the first eight
teams and it is yet hard to under
stand how the local quint failed to
make the grade against Madison ex-
cept that they had unparalleled bad
luck or something in hitting the ring
for the one basket that would have
made them winners.-Mankato Free
