TomorrOw ,sru1ag Mss Edic EI-I,r.
who Is Il t~avorlte with Cheyenne theatre
goers wiz present her new play Mss
Manning here for the first time.
As comedy is a new field for Effe
Ellsler what she said Of her venture be-
fore she made her first appearance in
Mss Manning is Of interest.
Yes, she Said, Il am trying comedy,
although | anu aware hat some people
will say that | ought not; tbatit is n o my
forte; that | am better IN tears, and all
that. 10 fact, a New York critic once
slid that the people wanted to see me cry.
My new play, Mss Manning, is so differ
ent from anything hat | baYe ever done
that | am really anxious to see how the
New York public will ike me in it. 1t is
all bright and sparkling. no horse play,
but there is not a tear IN it, not one. and
| do so hope it will 60"
The success OF the new play has been q
complete realization of her hopes and her
success has been as brilliant in comedy as
10 emotional drama. Fife Ellsler Is sup
ported by her usual good company and
tomorrow nights play will be an oppor-
tunity for enjoyment which should be
taken advantage Of by every lover Of clean
sparkling comedy.

This will undoubtedly be a favorable
opportunity for inviting attention to the

fded that the board of trade heartily en-
lone the proposition that Wyoming be
represented at this convention in the
banner suggested by Prof. Churchill,

The Typewritcrs.

Now that ladies are so generally EN-
nloycd as stenographers and typewriter
operators the columns of some news
papers are hurdened with coarse at
tempts at humor in which the pretty
nmnnuensis and her alleged flirtations
with the business man are the inspiring
theme. Perhaps these jokes, on ac-
count Of their insipidity, are harmless
and do not deserve the dignity OF
remonstrauce, but nevertheless we en-
.er our protest against any attempt to
Mace in a ridiculous or improper light
ihe honest and worthy occupation
If n woman. All honor to the girl
who has the energy and pluck and de-
termination to qualify herself to be
self.sustaining aud make herself useful
IN tho great world of business. There
nre enough actual follies, weaknesses
and foibies Of men to laugh about
without making innocent women the
subject of ridiculo by making them
6gnre in incidents entirely the product
rs nm impure imagination. The shafts
Of ridicule should be aimed only az
those who deserve punishment. and
vii mud humor lose their charm when
indulped in at the expense OF any
thinp that is good or useful, A wo'
