That popular and masterly romance, "The Prisoner of Zenda," is heralded as one of the coming attractions, and this season we are promised a production that for completeness in detail, magnificence in scenic equipment, and excellence in players surpasses all former presentations.
Encouraged by the glorious record and enthusiastic reception heretofore accorded "The Prisoner of Zenda," a magnificent scenic revival of this fascinating romance is scheduled for presentation here in the near future. The cast is composed of a number of the former favorite players and a production of exceptional excellence is assured by critics who have seen this season's presentation elsewhere.
Haskell's victorious team returned from its eastern trip last Saturday. The Indians were met by the student body in uniform and escorted home by the brass band. Haskell has played eleven games and won ten of them.

We congratulate Haskell on its coach, team, and record for 1900.
