"What Happened to Jones" the title is suggestive of' the piece itself. It is said to be one of the funniest bits that has ever been staged in America and is a complete production in every way. Magnificently staged, elat (jrately dressed and presented by the most capable cast which it has been possible to get together it has had a phenominal run from coast to coast. The piece is built for laughing purposes only. It abounds in laughable climaxes, ridiculous situations and all that contributes for a successful farce comedy. Mr. Millard Reid, who does the comedy lead has the reputation of being one of cleverest men in the business. Miss Murena Delrnar is a hand some woman and an accomp lished actress and both are sup fbrted by the strongest company which it has been possible to get together.

The first num ber will be gotten out some time next week and Edward Kaiser, of this city, will be the publisher. Mr. Kaiser has been looking the field over this week and has come to the conclusion that it will sup port a second paper. Material has been bought for the plant and is now on the way from St. Puul, and the first number will appear the latter part of next week. Mr. Kaiser regards Kelliher as a town with a future and believes his venture will be found profit able from the beginning. The name of the publication has not yet been decided upon. It will not be the Kazoo, the Astonisher and Paralyzer nor the Bugle, however, and Mr. Kaiser says he will spare no effort to give the town a paper that will be a credit in every way and a substantial reflection of its thrift and prog ress. Takes Post Graduate Course. Dr. Morrison, accompanied by Mrs. Morrison, left this morning for Chicago, where he will take a post graduate course on diseases of the nose and throat at a Chi cago post graduate college of medicine.

He will make a specialty of diseases of the nose and. throat, and to this nd is taking the post graduate course at present. Opening of Bunting Season. The impression seems to pre-' vail in some quarters, according to Henry Buenther, the taxider mist, -that the open season for limiting big game begins next Sunday, Nov. 1. This is incor rect. The season is not open un til Nov. 10 and closos Nov. 30. Resident hunters are allowed to kill three deer, one male moose and one male caribou in the twen ty days and all hunters must be !_ equipped with the necessary li- (^jVv'hfv-na cense to hunt big game. Mr.! Buenther will go out as soon as the season is open and will spend a week or two in the woods in an effort to secure a specimen caribou for mounting purposes. All the Way From Crookston. Two couples of young people from Crookston were in police court this morning charged with disorderly conduct, and both paid lines amounting to $41 each. They had been in the city for several days and told several stories regarding the degree of relationship which they bore to oner another.- The police saw enough to warrant a charge of disorderly conduct and they were accordingly taken into custody. Opening Called Off. Mr. Wheelock finds the hall is unsafe at present and has de cided not to open the house until some repairs which will strength en the floor can be made.

BENA HAS RIVALS Reservation Town Has \ewTown sites Platted on Either Side of It. County Commissioner Chris Burns, of Cass county, and one of the large lumbermen of this section was in the city last night. Mr. Burns is interested in the townsite of the new town of Bena on the Cass Lake reserva tion which is just now having its claims contested by two rival townsite companies. Mr. Burns has just returned from Bena and says everything there is pro gressing nicely. The town has everything in a business way which the townsite requires and is not worrying about its future.

Two young ladies who have re cently come to this city to live became involved in a dispute with a Bemidji lady who keeps a boarding house Wednesday over the payment of a board bill. The landlady said it should be one figure and the guests fixed an other. When they attempted to leave the house their baggage was replevined by Constable Hennessy and there was the hot time that only an indignant wo man can precipitate. The matter was finally satisfactorily adjusted without getting into court. The Northern Pacific saloon has made arrangements to re ceive the reports from the foot ball game tomorrow afternoon.
