EDITOR BOISE NEWS Having made short
run from Placerville for the purpose of seeing
the sights around Idaho, please pardon me
for offering you for publication some slight
observations on one topic,-theatrical, yes
that's the word, particularly, although there
is many another subject which might be d.
lated upon, yet theatricals take precedence.
After all the expense and trouble which the
management of your Idaho theaters have
gone to to give your citizens a coed perform
ance-With the best talent on the coast, why
is it that saw so many empty lenches on
Saturday night to witness Mrs. Hayne in her
great character of Blanca p and although
it was fair house, yet it was not such as
might be expected. 1t is a shame to your
fair city that so meager an audience should
ever sit beneath the reading of Mrs. Hayne
and for one would not blame the fraternity
if they would retire permanently from the
stage in idaho. Let politics do its best, yet
there should be lovers enough of the dramain
