THE MAsCoTTE.
Oar readers will remember how well
Audran's popular opera of 'The Mascotte'
was given by Miss Leila Farrells Mascotte
Company last spring at Portland Theatre

applause but added decidedly to her reputa-
ton in her assumption of "Bettina," role far.

had previously been seen here. Miss Farrell

her former triumphs as the Princess Fiametta.

'sPinafore' gave SO much pleasure will essay
the part of Pippo, and the rest of the cast re-
mains the same. Walter Goold will conduct
and the tickets will be ready at Stockbridges

Our readers will remember the enthusiastic
late performance of the Creation by the

the admirable chorus singing at the former

a larger auditorium, and the price of admission
has been fixed at a very low figure in order
that all may attend

The old ring has done it again in Maine, and
one of its favorites has won the toss-up at the
Republican convention held in Portland Tues
day. Probably Mr.. Robbie is not much known
outside his State, and can hardly be accounted
a great man, even by his friends at home, but
he will do for a ring fgure-head. His name
sounds like a diminutive of Robson. We
hope there is no significance in the coincidence.
If the people of Maine are wise, however, he is
bigger man now than he will be after the
election.

(BoSton AdVertlser.)
The Republicans of Maine held one of their
great conventions yesterday, and opened the
canvass with extraordinary spirit. The NOM
nation for Governor was the matter which ex-
cited the most interest, and the result of the
balloting is quite surprising, considering the
large number of delegates " no were unpledg-
ed, and who were believed to be rather in
clined to take another candidate than to ac-
cept either of those who had secured che lead
in the caucuses. Col. Frederick Robe, who
received clear majority on the first ballot, is
one of the best known citizens in the State
He was formerly practising physician in the
town of Gorham, in Cumber land county, hav-
ing been graduated at Bowdoin College in the
class of 1841 and in medicine at Philadelphia
in 1916. He was, both before the war, in
which he served in the surgical department.,
and since the war closed, a leading public
man, having been member of both branches
of the legislature, Speaker of the House OF
Representatives and member of the Execu-
tive Council. He is good man and strong
candidate, although there will no doubt be
symptoms of opposition to him early In the
canvass, due TO the disappointment which was
inevitably in store for somebody. There is no
question Of the power of the Republicans to
elect him, and as little OF their disposition to
do so,

A DISPATCH to the Tucson Star, from San Carlos, and dated Oct. 10th. says: 'Gen. Crook held very important con- ference with four hundred of che chiefs and head men of the Apaches at this post to-day. He made known, in few un- mistakable terms, the policy to govern during the time he should remain in com mand of the department. All Indians are to be counted daily, and none allow ed away from the reservation without papers. The manufacture of tisHin. the favorite liquor of the Apaches, is to be stopped. Indians found of the reserva- tion without passes are to be treated as hostiles. In conclusion, General Crook said that, while every encouragement and assistance would be given to Indians will ing to be peaceable and to work for their own living, no mercy should be shown to those who attempted to go on the war path. If any of the Indians felt disposed to break out, he thought it best for them to break out now and bring the question of supremacy to a test without more delay. Lieutant Dodd, Third Cavalry, with detachment of Indian scouts, went out after a small party of Apaches re- ported off the reservation. He brought back the whole party, eleven in all, this morning.

The Widow Clnsser's Husband,

The widow Closer was 56 when she married Chrisman, and he was exactly half that age. It is hardly necessary, therefore, to add that the fine farm on which they went to live at Anderson, Ind, belonged to her, and that her young husband hadn't dollar that was not provided by her. During four years she gave him money freely, and he spent it so riotously that, when she final Iy decided to be rid of him, there were plenty of grounds on which to obtain divorce. Only a few months elapsed before he returned to her, protesting love and repentance, and they were married anew. This time he meant to make quick, clean sweep of her prop erty. He induced her to sell the farm for $S,000. Then he stole the money from under her pillow and ran away.

Joint C0un eIinan.

The Star hoists this morning the name of Thomas F. Wcedin, editor of the Flor ence ENTERPRISE, for joint Councilman from Pinal and Pima counties. Mr. Weedin is an uncompromising democrat, a gentleman of ability, and thoroughly conversant with the legislative require ments of the two counties If elected Gas he certainly will be) he will make an able and efficient Councilman, and studiously seek to advance the interests of his con stituents. There is no man in Arizona better fitted for the place. He belongs to school of politics in which honor and fidelity in dealing with public trusts are held as above and beyond every other consideration. As the canvass progresses we shall have frequent occasion to allude to his merits more in detail than the brief limits of the present article will allow Tucson Duly Star.

THERE will be two railroad companies before the next legislature asking for charters and the right of way through the Gila valley. A railroad up this valley will give new life to every branch of industry ill this county and start a mining boom that will make this one of the richest, most populeus and prosperous sections of the west. We have the mines and need only the devel- opment that cheap and rapid transporta- tion facilities would insure.

TIE result in Ohio and the certainty of democratic success in Pennsylvania, New York and Indiana, to say nothing of California, insures large democratic ma jority in the next Congress. In the face of this fact our republican friends can no longer urge the election of Judge Porter upon the ground that he would have greater influence in Congress because of his politics. The situation has changed and the same argument may now be used in Mir. Oury's favor. This is one of the cases where the chickens come home to roOst

THE Star editorially, in commenting upon the remarks of Mir. OurY, says: MT. Oury's admirable speech at Masonic Hall Tuesday night is everywhere spoken of with expressions of approval and com mendation.
