Seniors Give Pleasing
Production of Class Play
Large Audience Enjoy Every Line
and Situation of Amusing
Comedy Friday Evening

"Charley's Aunt" the three act
comedy presented by the Senior
class of the Sauk Centre High
School Friday, May g. was easily
the best school production of the
year. Those who had seen the Gin
ema version of "Charley's Aunt"
were not disappointed as the play
was full of comic and boisterous
incidents which repeatedly con-
vulsed the audience.
For the girls of the cast this
was their first venture into
drama, for none of them took part
in the Junior play of last year
among the boys new talent was al
so discovered. Edwin Natlle as
Charley's Aunt, was the star of
the evening. Edwin's impersona-
tion of the lady was cleverly done
his voice and mannerisms were
convincingly feminine. His oc-
casional lapses back to his original
Babberly made the audience feel
that his exposure might come at
any moment. Donald Arneson
and Paul Markson were handsome

afterwards.

BIG MINSTREL SHOW
BY LOCAL TALENT.

lists Give First Perform
ance Thursday Eve.
SURPRISES In STORE
Last Show Saturday Eve
ming Old Artists Are
On Program

Sank Centres famous minstrel
organization will make their an
nual appearance at the Caughren
theatre this Thursday evening.
The engagement will close Satur-
day evening.
The writer has been intimately
connected with these productions
since their inception and in all sim
cerity we are convinced that this
years show will measure up in
elaborateness, musical ensemble,
delightful solos, localized jokes,
vaudeville stunts and general COM
pleteness with either of its pre-
decessors.
This city is fortunate in having
an abundance of male voices of
high calibre and many of these
will appear to splendid advantage
in the minstrel show.
Mayor Whitson, Fay Cooper,
Oscar Dowswen, Hank Thielen and
Dewey and Frank O'Gara are the
end men. H. A. Falk will be the
interlocutor. The solos combine
Southern melodies of the old days
and the popular and sentimental
ballads of the present.
There are five headline vaude-
vile acts, and the show will last
two solid hours without interup-
tion.
All seats are reserved. The ad-
mission price is so cents. Seats for
all three evenings are now on sale
at the Corner Drug Store. After
7:15 P. M. they will be at the
theatre box office. Thursday and
Friday evenings the show will start
at 8:15 P. M. Saturdays evening
performance will not start until
8:45 in order to give the farmers
an opportunity to do their shop
ping before attending the show.
There is something about an
old-time Minstrel show that ap-
peals to old and young. This
show is being presented under the
auspices of the Sauk Centre Coun-
try Club.

Former Resident Pays
Tribute to DR.. Dobbs
J. c. Unger, Makes Interesting
Comment Eye Witness at
Murder Trial

]. C.. Unger, former Sank
Centre resident now. residing at
Seattle, Wash, a close observer of
the arrest, trial and acquittal of
the murder charge against DR..
Clarence Dobbs also former res
ident of this city, has written the
Herald the following" interesting
communication discussing the or
deal through which DR.. Dobbs has
just passed:
Seattle, Wash, May 1, 1927.
Editor Sauk Centre Herald,
Sauk Centre, MINI.
Dear Editor:
Under separate cover / am mail
ing you tomorrow an account of
the famous Dobbs murder case. AS
DIR. Dobbs is a former resident of
Sauk Centre, Mimi, and some of
his relatives still live there, you
will no doubt find the clippings of
interest.
No murder trial in this county
since l came here eighteen years
ago has ever created more interest
than this one. 1t has held the
front page of all the Seattle daily
papers for many, many weeks, day
after day. / am sending you only
one papers account of the origin
al indictment. 1t is, however,
very thorough, and gives much de-
tail of DR.. Dobbs' life, includine
the fact that he came from SIau5
Centre,
Had DR.. Dobbs not been aquit-
ted, / would never have sent YOU
an. account of this Indictment and
trial, as I would certainly never
have been a party to bring grief
upon his Sauk Centre relatives, by
giving publicity to his misfortune.
However, as he has been so COM
pletely vindicated, / do not hest
tate to give you an account of it,
to use as you may see fit, or for
your own personal review.
] also wish to say that was
quite interested in the recent ac-
count Mr.. Peter Robischon gave
through your paper relative to
the accomplishments of your mum
icipal light department. Digging
up such facts and figures he's fo1
years been a hobby with myself
about municipal light plants all
over the United States and Can
ada.
Sincerely yours,

State Builds Up Strong Case
Against Francis Tucker,
Verona, N. D. Farmer
COLD BLOODED CRIME
Victim Was Former Resi-
dent Of This City, Neph-
ew of S. {. Bjone

5. q. BJone OF this city received
the following account from the
LaMoure County Chronicle of La
Moure, North Dakota dated Sat-
urday morning May 7, relating to
the Indictment of the murder of a
nephew, Hans C. Bjone on Feb.
%, last.
FRANCIS Tucker, 43, farmer liv-
ing near Verona, was indicted late
Friday afternoon on a charge of
first degree murder in connection
with the Staying on Feb. %, last,
of Hans &c. Bjone, cashier of the
Farmers and Merchants State
bank of Verona. A bench war
rant was issued and he was ar
rested late the same evening at
his farm home and placed in the
LaMoure county Jail. The jury
was dismissed soon after the re-
turning of the Indictment, which
followed nearly five days of DELHI
erations, including the examining
of several score of witnesses.
'"The case is due to be tried at
the regular term of LaMoure
county district court opening in
LaMoure, June ID, next.
"Bjone was slain while working
in the bank vault, five bullets be-
ing fired into his head.
"It is indicated that the prose
cution at the trial will contend
that the murder was committed be-
tween 4:45 and Sis p. M, Feb.
%, and it will allege that Tucker
was in the bank at approximately
4:45 P. M, that he was the last
person known to have been in
the bank, and that it will try to
prove that Tucker does not salts
factorily account for his actions
between that time-the time he
was seen in the bank-and the
time he was reported to have left
Verona, and that he was alleged
to have spent sums of money in
excess of his income. .-.
"Tucker may take steps today
to obtain bonds"
The crime was one of the most
cold-blooded in the history of
North Dakota. Robbery was the
motive of the crime as the murder
er. stole something over $3,400 of
the banks funds.
The Herald will keep it's read
ers posted as the action against
Tucker progresses.
