This is an en terprise that should meet thchourty ap proval of nil our citizens, us n college of this kind will not only keep a great many of our young people nt home, that would otherwise go away to school, but as Mr. Randall expects to travel from town to town, surrounding here, ho will be the moans of drawing others to North Platte. Anothor splendid feature of the college is that a night school will be conducted as well as the day, giving those who are employed nn opportunity to take up this important work. Mr. Randall explains that the only requirement necessary to secure this school for North Platte is the signature oftfiirty studonts and it is hoped that all those who" (desire to take mU vantage of such an education will sign for scholarship. There is no money to be paid until the college is opened, so no ono need hestitate to enroll. Unless the required number can be secured the school will not locate here, which would bo a loss to our city. The Chamber of Commerce has gono into this matter and has assured Mr. Randall that they will cooperate with him, and assist in any way possible in securing tho required number of students.

Laura Frankenfield Coining. Laura Frankenfield is coming to the Keith theatre on Tuesday, Nov. 4th, in the role of "Helena Richie." This is the version used by Margaret Anfclin and dramatized for her by Charlotte Thompson from the book by the same name. Helena Richie's soul awakening seems so natural and possi ble amid the Old Chester people nnd Old Chester surroundings, with Dr. Lavendar at his best, as philanthropist,, philosopher and mentor. This woman has violated the structural facts of tho moral law. She is led by little David, a homeless child whom she takes, to discover the great religion of duty. When her life becomes known and Dr. Lavander regards her unfit to keep David, her submission to the law of retributive justice which operates for a time then gives way, and her de termination to mako the remainder of her life "clear and sound" but give evidence to the genuiness of her awa kened sincerity. The "bjg scene" of tho piny is whore Helena confesses that she is not worthy to keep David. It requires a great artst to meet tho demands made upon her and Miss Frankenfield fully meets the demands. "David" in Helen Richie" "The Awakening of is irresistable. Dr. Lavander has been flattered bv tho child's wrapt nttention.to the stories he has been telling. "Well, well" he said, MYou aro a great boy for stories, aren't you? "You've talked seven min utes" said David thoughtfully, "and you havo not moved your uppor jaw once.", Tho play is peopled with real liye characters. Do not forgot this splendid dramat ization of Margaret Deland's novel will be seen here with Laura Frankenfield as the star. Stamping Out Hog Cholera.
