The comic operetta in two acts, written by Chas. H. Gabriel, was presented by the Baptist Young People on Tuesday evening under the direction of Mr. G. T. Wilsor. To say that it was a suecess would be putting it mildly. It was a pro- nounced hit. In the first place the | story of the operetta is a pretty one. The pastoral setting is charming and the music ca‘ching and delight} ul. Mr. Wilson had placed the parts admirably among the talent in society and the parts were well sustained. : Among the ‘male parts that of| Farmer Jim by Mr. Wilson was naturally first and Mr. Wilson won many friends in Tama audiences by his clever presentation of the part and his excellent singing. ° : The house was filled to “standing room only,” which we trust will be encouragement enough for the.home talent to give us further entertain- ment.—Tama County News, Tama, Iowa. Seats reserved for Monday night at City Drug store at 50¢c. No seats reserved for Tuesday night until Tuesday morning. Don’t fail to go to the City Opera House one or other of these nights. - Good Dairy Country. Lest ye forget, we repeat that the Big Fork country has most complete dairying conditions. It has the dairy air, the dairy water and the dairy soil that will support two cows to each acre. All it needs aré cows and men who are not abové study- ing the cow and milking her. Until they come, we will continue to pay 10 cents for a quart of milk and 35 cents for a pound of butter. On| almost every quarter section of land there is enough hardwood land for | cultivation and enough meadowland for hay. Meadows and pastures are the first requirements. Begin by herding cows and growing roots. ! Don’t monkey with corn, but sow oats and reap them as hay. Learn to keep cows, and while you are learning, they will tramp down the | brush and make you so rich, fat and lazy that you will forget to ask for a diploma when you graduate.—Big Fork Compass. ; ‘The above applies equally well to the farms of Beltrami county as to those of Koochiching county. New Land Office Ruling. Under date of -Nov. 7, registers and receivers of United States land offices are directed as follows: “You will discontinue the practice of certifying to the correctness of copies of declarations of intention to become a citizen, or of certificates of citizenship. You will also refuse to accept such papers as evidence of citizenship, unless the same bear the signature and seal of the clerk of court from which the papers were issued. “These instructions apply to papers issued under the old naturali- zation laws as well as ones issued under Act of June 28, 1906 (34 stat.,, 596.) Observe also circular of April 13, 1907, under the latter act, requiring the prescribed forms to be used.” Under this circular all officers in the several districts authorized to administer oaths and take proof under act of March 4, 1904, (33 stat., 59,) are to be notified, and they will advise their clients of the provisions of this new regulation. Mayor Pogue on ‘“Hold-Ups.” Recently there were rumors to the effect that there has been one or more hold-ups within the city limits. Mayor Pogue was asked concerning these rumors, and he authorizes the Pioneer to say: “I have been told that there are such rumors in circulation, but it is utterly impossible to trace any of these rumors to any authentic source. No complaints have been made, either to me or any of the police force, that any one has been held up, assaulted or robbed. If any one knows of any such work, I will be pleased to have them inform me or the chief of police, and I assure you we will deal vigorously with the offenders.” e ‘‘East Lynne,” Nov. 2I. Every one has seen or read ‘‘East Lynne.” Full of comedy, pathos and sentiments it has a trend of feeling that appeals to the sympathy of all. It will still be a great play when the popular plays of the day are gone and forgotten. Its story is the old one of man, the tempter and the betrayer, and women the unction caused by an uncalled for jealously. Itis interesting full of heart interest and isa lesson to every human being, It willbe seen - - at the City Opera House Thursday evening, Nov. 21. The Editor. The following, taken from the Brookston Herald, so nearly fits the condition of the average editor that it is worth reproducing: 3 “The editor works in one way or another 16 hours a day, for the public more than for himself and gets “thank you” about as often as doesa dray mule. He will boom anything from a babyshow to a transcontinental railway and is be- grudged a free ticket. He stands up six or seven days ina week for good morals, education, progress and enlightenment, and too often is looked upon as a harmless moddle- { coddle who hasn’t sense enough to get ahead in the world In whatever town there iIs a news- paper worth the name the merchants should be liberal patrons. The edi- tor isa champion for home interests and often without hope of reward, except in heaven, and the home people should treat him fairly and decently. He is the best friend of évery business man in the comnun- ity and to'boycott him is barbarism.” Local matter on second page. INSERIOUS CONDITION Premier Campbell-Bannerman Is Seized With Sudden Illness. HEART SPASMS THE CAUSE | Attack Occurs at Bristol, Eng., Follow- ing the Delivery of a Speech and for a Time the Premier’s Condition Created the Greatest Alarm. Bristol, Eng, Nov. 15—The pre- mier, Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, after addressing a political meeting, was seized with sudden illness at the residence here of William Howell Da- vis, Liberal member of parliament for South Bristol. Doctors attended the sufferer for over an hour and al- though the sharpness of the attack has ceased the premier’s condition is such that London doctors have been summoned. Heart trouble is believed to be the cause of the illness. Sir Henry had planned to make sev- eral political speeches, but he has PREMIER CAMPBELL-BANNERMAN given up all his engagements and has requested Chief Secretary for Ireland Birrell to take them up. Y Later it was aunounced that the premier’s illness was due to a severe spasm of the heart, which gradually was relieved by restoratives. At one time during the night the premier’s condition created the grav- est alarm. Mr. Birrell. who also is at Bristol, was hastily summoned to ses his chief, oxygen was administered and relief was ob! BRIEF BITS OF NEWS.
