| really can name nothing out of the way.
No, sir; | can't describe him. And it's
not want of memory; for | declare | can
see him this moment"
Here is a chance for mastery delinea-
ton. Mr.. Bandmann presents a horribly
deformed monster. He is content with
making "Dr. JekylPs" antithesls as
strongly repulsive a contrast as he can
conceive. Further than this he does not
go.
The play is an adaptation rather than a
~dramatization of the novel. The comedy
element is of the equine variety and the
support, except Miss Beaudet and Mr..
Mestayer, are a rather bilious looking lot.
As we have tried to indicate the play
lacks many delicate artistic elements, but
it was well worth seeing and will help to
prove that Mr.. Bandmann did not really
miss his calling when he went upon the
stage.

MR. PLAY.

After having witnessed Herr Band
mann accomplish the delicate task Of
changing Shakespercan tragedy into free
and easy comedy, we confess to have ex.
perienced some qualms over his ability to
give an entertaining version of Steven
sons now celebrated novel, The Strange
Case of DR.. JekYll and Mr.. Hyde" A
successful dramatization must necessarily
be a delicate and difficult feat. Taking
the novel literally it would be next to i'm
possible to produce a play that would sus-
tain popular interest; a too free embel-
lishment of the plot, on the other hand,
might lead to a dramatic nightmare.
Having a very acute recollection that
Herr Bandmann's talent ran chiefly to
lungs and limbs we were both surprised
and gratiied at the really strong charac-
terization which he last evening gave the
dual part of "Dr. Jekyl' and "Mr.
Hyde" OF course the original plot Of
the book is elaborated and the presence
of a heroine adds to its interest in the
eyes of a general audience. Much of the
construction is crude and high-hown sen.
timent and is occasionally logged in in.
congruously; yet, Notwithstanding certain
well defined fault the play holds the at
tention of an audience admirably. II
does more, for it frequently stirs them
deeply. This is particularly true of the
first transformation OF "Dr. Jckyll' into
'Mr. HYDE" which is accomplished with
almost shocking realism. Mr.. Bandmann's
im~personation is not marked by any
6nesse. nor does it show that any deep,
artistic instincts have been stirred by Q
study of the psychologist features of the
book. 1t is simply a bold, rough outline
sketch with catchy characters thai
are often striking, but never reach
the height of intellectual revelation.
Nothing illustrates this better than Ste,
venson's own conception OF MIR. Hyde
as compared with Mr.. Bandmann,s as
seen last evening. Nothing could be
stronger than the way Hyde" is sug.
gested in these words in the novel:
HE is not very easy to describe. There
is something wrong with his appearance;
something diSpleasing, something down
right detestable. | never saw a man sc
disliked, and yet | scarcely known why.
He must be deformed somewhere; he
gives a strong feeling of deformity, al
though | couldn't specify the point. He
is an extraordinary looking man, and YET

Now THAI Buffalo Bill is on his way
home, an exchange revives some interest
ing features Of his career: ''The Hon.
Bill is now immensely wealthy, and may
go into politics. How would Stanford
and Cody do for a presidential ticket?
The fact is that Buffalo Bill is no stran-
ger to politics. Away back in 1872 a
Democratic convention at Grand Island
nominated him for the legislature to rep
resent what was then the t~wenty-sixth
district. He had always been a Demo-
crat, and as his district was largely Re-
publican he had no idea of being elected.
In fact he cared very little about it, and
therefore made no effort to secure an
election. However, he was elected, and
that is the way he acquired his title of
honorable. But he never served. As he
was then about to start out on his career
as an actor he resigned his Legislative scat.
He had been discovered by Ned Bunt-
line, who formed a copartnership with
him and Texas Jack. Bill and Jack first
appeared on the stage in Chicago in a
play called The Scouts of the Plains
which Ned Buntline wrote in four hours.
The next morning after the play was pro-
duced there appeared in the Chicago pa
pers some very funny criticisms of the
first performance. The Chicago Times
said hat if Buntline had actually spent
four hours in writing that play, it was
difficult to see what he had been doing all
the time. However, the venture proved
successful financially, and Bill has ever
since been a Snowman. He developed
very rapidly"

HOW IT'S DONE.

We have never seen a better illustra-
ton of how a booming state of things is
produced than is furnished in the CORE
spondence of the editor of the Denver
World, who writes from Trinidad. Fol-
lowing are a few of the things which he
discovered:
"a wealthy citizen of the town, whose
name-not to wrong any other wealthy
citizens by too modesty concealing it's
Daniel L. Taylor, has given &c., 600
toward the public improvements that
have been inaugurated here within the
last year. That is the spirit that accounts
for the condition of things prevailing to-
day in Trinidad.
"Trot out your man if you can beat
Trinidad's star contributor in Denver.
Why, the half of SIG, 900 contributed to
public improvements by any of the
wealthy ~mossbacks of Pueblo would throw
that "Pittsburg of the West" into a nine
days fit of Mysteries.
but Taylor is not the only public
spirited citizen of Trinidad. Every man
here has got his shoulder to the wheel.
The city is enjoying the most substantial
boom | have ever seen. Everybody is
making money and full of courage and
confidence. The best Of it is they are all
determined to stay with the town.
Some parties came here to talk about
a blast furnace and rolling mill a couple of
months ago, attracted by the discovery of
immense bodies of hematite ore in the vi
cinity and the vast deposits of the finest
coking coal in the country. What did the
home business men do2-try to sell them
a building and site and offer reduced taxa
ton on their placer Not much they
didn't. Nothing of that kind, you bet.
They gave the building site and Clipped
in and took $75, 900 of the stock and paid
for it at par in cold cash, and Trinidad
will have the iron works just as 1901 as
they can be slammed together and the
necessary machinery ierked out here from
the East"
God helps those who help themselves is
a very practical motto for a town which
wishes to keep up with the procession.

TROUBLE IN THE SCHOOLS.
DR.. FRANCIS CHARGES TRUSTEE COR
NISH WITH USURPATION OF AU-
THoRTY. MISS POPE CHARGES
TYRANlCAL TREATMENT.

The school board of trus-
tees met Tuesday evening and
after the regular business a COM
munication was read from Miss
Barbara Pope, which proved to be
her resignation. 1t seems that
Miss Pope was kicked in the alb
domen or assaulted by one of her
male pupils whom she suspended
and refused to re-admit unless he
apologized. 1t is said, notwith-
standing the request she made and
the courtesy due her as a teacher,
she was requested by the author
tiles of the colored schools to re-
enter the bupil without an apol,
ogy. Presuming that she had
been imposed upon, hence her
resignation. Just before the
board adjourned DIR. Francis, a
trustee of the 7th division, called
the attention of the board to a
proposed exhibition which has
been ordered in the colored
schools, and especially in his divi,
sion without his authority or the
knowledge ofthe board, and want.
ed to know whether any such au.
thority had been given.
It was ascertained that Trustee
Cornish, a trustee of the 9th school
division, in conjunction with the
coIored superintendent, had order,
ed this exhibition without the
authority of the board, at a time
when preparations should be made
for the examinations. Mr.. Cor
nish said that it was his intention
to have sent the board an invita-
ton. 1t was remarked that this
was strange proceedings and against
the rules governing the board OF
trustees that one member should
do an act without the knowledge
or consent of the board.
