Percy Crosby's "Skippy"
At L0ew's Palace, Saturday.

"SKIPPY," inspired by the comic
- strip by Percy Crosby, will be at
traction at Loew's Palace TheateI
starting Saturday. Everything Is said
to be incorporated in it to make an
appeal to both old and young.
It Is a story Of typical boyhood
wanted to live. The fights, loves and
troubles that come with the trials OF
youth are all done in a manner that
makes "Skippy' one of the few sue
cessful "transplanted" characterize
lions.
On the stage Al Wohlman will head
a bill that boasts Of no less than eight
Loew acts with enough variety to
satisfy the most fastidiouS.

tinged with tragedy, but 1t gives also
rein for comedy effects.
In casting his players for "Coquette,"
Clifford Brooke has many difficulties
before him, there being so many out
standing characters in the play, for
"Coquette'' is real replica of life in
the Southland. The story concerns a
motherleSs girl who is raised according
to the strictest standards by father
who loves her so much he cannot bear
the thought Of any man marrying her

Alexander Mckenzie Comes

Alexander Mckenzie came to Bis
marck in June, 1873, and engaged In
the manufacture and sale of pop,
cronk beer, and other soft drinks.
These beverages he would bottle and
deliver In a wheelbarrow to the
saloons. Many dollars worth Of sugar
the writer tied up and sold over the
counter in the old Mclean and Mac
nider store to Mr.. Mckenzie, which
he used in the making Of soft drinks.
At the time of the drowning Of Mr..
Mccarthy and Mr.. Miller, the writer,
together with a young man by the
name Of John Mcclellan, from st.
Lawrence county, New York. were the
clerks in the Mclean and Macnider
store. Mr.. Mcclellan and Mr.. Nc
Kenzie were about the same age.
and we're warm personal friends, and
Mr.. Mcclellan urged Mr.. Mckenzie to
apply for the appointment OF sheriff
to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of Mr.. Mccarthy. At a spe-
cial meeting of the county commits
sioners, consisting of John P. Dunn
and T. P. Davis, held on the 24tn
day of December, 1874, MI. Mckenzie
received the appointment of sheriff
of Burleigh county. Other applicants
for the office were Thomas Madden
and r. D. Gutgesell. The appoint
ment of sheriff changed the career
of Alexander Mckenzie, and was the
starting point of his political fame
and financial prosperity. During the
legislative session of 1874 and 1873,
Hon. E. A. Williams, who had been
