Rand Concert and Dance Big Success. The concert and dance given last night at the City Opera House by the Bemidji band was a very success- ful affair, in every respect. There was a large crowd in attend- ance at the concert, and the hall was crowded with those who re- mained for the dance at the con- clusion of the concert. The quality of the music furnished by the band was a surprise to every- one. The program was a varied one, and the members of the band, under the direction of Prof. Thomas Sym-| ington, played as they never: have played before—the large crowd applauding vigorously. Professor Symington deserves much credit for the results which he has attained, through persistent drilling and instructing when much discourage@ribryfimar}y reverses.

Attempted Criminal Assault. Walker~Pilot: An attempt at criminal assault occurred at the Leech Siding on the G, N. tracka few nights ago, when the wife of one of the settlers living in that neigh- borhood was ‘approached by a stranger as she stepped from the train at the Siding. The woman’s call for help attracted her husband and after a short, but desperate struggle in which the man received scratches on both hands, he took to the woods at the "approach of the husband. “‘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 will be seen at the City Opera House Thursday evening, Nov. 21. County Physician Busy. Dr. Blakeslee, as county physician, announces that the three cases of diphtheria which have been ‘“‘under the pan” at Marsh’s Siding, have all recovered, and that the quarantine has been removed.

MINNESOTA DID FINELY Continued from First-Page Dr. Williams, coach of the Min- nesota eleven, would say absoultely nothing as to the probable result of the game, He simply smiled and showed his teeth in the manner peculiarly his own, and would venture nothing, except that his men were in good condition. Chief Coach Warner, of the Car- lisle team, said of the game: ““We are not forecasting the result of the battle. The men are in good condition and we anticipate nothing which. would keep us from going into the game with our full strength, Further than that we wouldn’t care to be quoted.” While no one would concede that Minnesota had a chance to win the game, there were many Supporters of the eleven who were willing to bet that the team would score, and several substantial wagers were recorded on that proposition. The gates of Northrup field were! thrown open at 12:30, and thbe reserved seats and main stands were rapidly filled. The gridiron was in fair condition, although the slight snow of last night had caused the ground to be somewhat slippery. The two teams lined up at.2 o’clock. Tue play had not been started long, when, Capron, the famous left halfback of the Minnesota eleven, dropped a beautiful goal from the field. The goal was a surprise not alone to the big crowd, but also to the members of the Carlisle team. There was tremendous cheering, and the crowd in the stands and bleachers and the outfield arose as one man and yelled. When the teams lined up, after Capron kicked the goal for Minne- sota, the Indians began to- pound the line of the Minnesota players with telling effect. Large gains were made on straight football, interspersed with a few for- ward passes and other trick plays. Two touchdowns were scored by Carlisle before the half ended, and goal was kicked after each touch- down. ‘ The half ended with Carlisle play- ing the stronger game, but Minne- sota resisting and making some great stands. 3 Score: Carlisle 12, Minnesota 4. The second half of the game was productive of the greatest struggle ever seen on Northrup field. The Indians were held time and again, and the Minnesota eleven simply held their own with “the famous warriors from the east. | The redskins tried every trick which they knew, but were kept from scoring. Towards the end of the game, when the ball was dangerously close to the Minnesota goal, the crowd was set simply crazy by a wonder- ful play of Schuchnecht, the big right halfback of the Minnesota team, who had been actingas cap- tain, and who had more than held his own with his opponent on the Indian eleven. Carlisle had pushed the ball to Minnesota’s five-yard line, when a too-eager Indian fumbled the ball. Quick as a flash, big Schuchnecht grabbed the ball and started down the field. There was a great scramble on the part of the fleet-footed Indians, but Schuchnecht, aided by some splendid interference, eluded the whole redskin team. The big Minnesota captain ran without » falter, the entire length of the field, and amidst deafening cheers planted the ball squarely behind the Carlisle goal. When the cheering and playing of the band had subsided, the crowd fairly held its breath waiting for the goal to be kicked. The ball was sent sailing squarely 'between the posts for a goal—and Minnesota was but two points behind in the score against the shiftiest and fastest playing: team in the East. For the balance of the. game, Minnesota held well; and the game ended with the score: Minnesota 10, Carlisle 12. When the game ended, the im- mense crowd swarmed onto the field and gave a frenzied exhibition of hilarious cheering. 3 Big Schuchnecht was the hero of the hour. He and the other mem- bers of the Minnesota eleven were carried from the field on the should- ers of the crowd of students, who are simply caazed with delight at the wonderful reversal of form shown Markham Sunday Dinner.

LEGALITY OF BOYCOTT Case of Widespread. Interest on Trial at Washington. VITAL PRINCIPLE AT STAKE N Court Asked to Enjoin the Federation of Labor From Continuing Its Fight Against the Products of a St. Louis Manufacturing Concern. ‘Washington, Nov. 1!—The case of the Buck Stove and Range company, of St. Louis against the American Federation of Labor, brought to en- Join the federation, with its member- ship of over 2,000,000 persons, from boycotting the products of -the plain- tiff company, was given a hearing be- fore Justice Gould in the ‘supreme court of the District of Columbia. The case has attracted widespread inter- est because of the effect of the ulti- mate action on vital principles. of or ganized labor and possible far-reach- ing developments of a political na: ture. It is generally understood that whether the prosecution or the de- fense wins in the decision of the dis- trict court the case will be carried to the supreme court of the United States. The bill of equity in the case cites the powerful organization of the fed- eration and the methods by which, it is claimed, the entire forces of the federation are concentrated on an es pecial boycott. In this case, while the application of the Sherman anti trust law is only incidentally in- volved, it does involve the question, important to business interests, as to whether the “unfair” and ‘““we don’t patronize” lists as published in the Federationist constitute an unlawful boycott. The plaintiffs presented lengthy af- fidavits as to the operation of the fed- eration, upon which they claimed a preliminary injunction should be granted. Counsel for the defense ob. jected to these affidavits .on _thae feature in any of them that was not hearsay. The defense contended that the proceeding was an attempt to in- voke the Sherman anti-trust law with- out warrant therefor; that it was an attempt to bring into the jurisdiction of~the courts of the District of Colum- bia people from all parts of the coun- try and that the subject was not a proper one for injunction. They ar- gue that the Federationist simply pub- lished a “we don’t patronize” list and any attempt to abridge tne right to publish was a violation of the free- dom of speech and press. Arguments of counsel occupied most of the day. MELLEN HITS AT ROOSEVELT Criticises “Brass Band” Meth- ods of Reform, Hartford, Conn., Nov. 15.—At the convention of the National Grange Charles F. Mellen, president of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad, was the chief speaker. Mr. Mellen has long been regarded as one of President Roosevelt’s close friends, but on this occasion he used language severely criticising the president and his attitude toward corporations, though he did not call the president by name. “This country has been having the time of its life. We have been chas- ing the corporations until it has got on our nerves. We are tired of the life we have been leading. We have got to rest. When we awake it will appear to have been a costly dream, ‘When we have mended the smashed furniture, the broken crockery, we will lay by for a time and accumulate the wherewithal to repair the waste of our debauch. “We may not think quite so well of ourselves for some time; our lead- ers will not look quite so large in our eyes agaln, but we forget quickly. “All knowledge is expensive. We must not demur to paying our bills. ‘We can now reflect upon the cause for all our excitement. We can see that the remedies could otherwise better have been applicd, but we were impatient—we wanted to do it day before yesterday in the ‘strong arm,’ brass band fashion, and we have done it, and we are going to have time now for contemplation of our work and consider whether we went about it in the wisest way or whether our terhper got the better of our judg- ment.” College Building Destroyed. - Monmouth, Ill, Nov. 1'—Fire which is said to have started from a defective flue in the garret destroyed the main building of Monmouth col- lege here, causing a loss estimated at nearly $40,000. While the fire was raging Orval Dean, a lineman in the employ of the Monmouth Telephone company, lost his life by being buried under several falling floors.

The hotel proprietor asked who shot him and he replied by pointing to Mrs. Bradley, saying: “That woman over there.” Brown was then asked if she was his wife and hoth he and Mrs. Bradley replied in the negative, she adding that “while she was not his wife he was the father of her children.” Mr. Turner said it would be shown also that Mrs. Bradley had said that her act was deliberate. “If,” he sald in conclusion, “the government suc- ceeds in proving these things and if you believe it was a deliberate mur- der we think it would be your duty to return a verdict of guilty as in- ‘dicted.” Mrs. Bradléy was visibly affected as} the recital proceeded.

New York, Nov. 15.—“Politiclans are eating up the country,” said Mrs. Hetty Green, the world’s richest wo- man, as she stepped out of the Na- tional Park bank. : “Whom or what do you believe to be responsible for the present finan- clal conditions?” she was asked. “Didn’t I say the politicians were eating up the country?” she replied. “One can place the blame where it belongs without much trouble. Halt the time he speaks the president does not know what he is going to do.” P Kosher Butcher Shops Close. Paterson, N. J, Nov. 16.—The kosher butcher shops, which have been a storm center the past week because of riots resulting from the high prices of meat, have decided to close for a month. The rioting, as has | been the case in other cities, was led_| by frenzied Jewish women.
