Francisco. Think Of such an event even
twenty years ago! No great national
body has ever yet been called together
west OF Omaha. The Presbyterians met
there a few years ago. and the Methodist
general conference next year is expected
to DO held there. In u little while, be-
fore the century 10 out, it will be nc
novelty for these national assemblages
to meet at the foot OF the Rocky noun
tains, or ever on the other side"
The above paragraph suggests the adj
vantages of Helena as u place of meet
ing for the National Association OF
Teachers in 1892. We have everything
to offer in the line of railways, hotels
and many things not offered by other
towns. The railway companies will dc
their share Of the work il the citizens OF
Helena will do the rest. A great effort
to this end at the Toronto convention
will advertise Helena, if nothing else.
but there are many excellent reasons
for believing that the convention will
decide upon Helena if the arguments
are properly presented. Our leading
men should lose no time in arranging
plans to capture this convention.

The committee Having the Matter in

AS predicted by The INDEPENDENT the
people of Helena are taking hold of the ar
tesian we'll project in an enthusiastic man
ner. The subscription paper was not ready
till yesterday afternoon. and something like
Sc. 900 has already been pledged. S.. L.
~fiauaer and c.. A. Broadwater started the
ball rolling by subscribing $1,000 each, and
a number of other gentlemen, including
VIM. Muth, John d. Wilson. II. 4. Reeder,
Jno. S. M. Neill, r. A. Harlow and G. D.
Hard are coming in with good subscrip-
tlonS.
As outlined in the prospectus, the propo-
ton is to form a company with a capital of
not less than $4,000, nor more than
$4,000, for the purpose of boring an arte-
sian we'll somewhere i'll the Prlckly Pear
valley, the location to be decided upon
when the corporation is formed. Subscrib-
ers will only be called upon to pay % per
cent. of their subscription each month. The
shares are in denominations of 800 each.
Messts. ~Broadwater, Hard and Harlow de-
sire to close the matter up as soon as posi-
BILE, and every one who is interested in the
proposed artesian we'll and thinks one in
successful operation would benefit Helena
and the adjacent country, is requested to
call at the Montana National bank and
subscribe. THE INDEPENDENT will publish
a list each day of the subscribers as re-
ceiyed, and it is hoped that by the end OF
the week the matter will be closed. The
promoters of the enterprise will not make &
dollar out of it. and the object in making
the capital $4,000 or $4,000 is to be
assured of sufficient money, SO that i'll case
it is necessary to sink 5000 feet it can bt
done. In case water is struck at LOCO fee1
the origiuators of the plan will have done
all they started out to do--demonstrated
that a~rtesian wells could be successfully
bored in the Prickly Pear valley, and then
it could be determined by the COMPANY
whether or not the same corporation should
continue the work in other portions of thu
valley. If water is struck at 1000 feet, and
it is determined that the original company
should cease operations, allowing others t,
take up tho work, then. of course, all the
payments on the original subscriptions will
not be called for,

ENTS.

The first dramatic presentation in this
city of Gothe's tragedy 'Faust" was given
last evening at Mins's by Mr.. Lewis Nor
rison and his company of players. II was
| witnessed by a good audience representa-
tive of the best GLASS of heater-goers y
was received with enthusiastic %apprecia-
tion. The play is not n pleasant one, for II
is a terrible story Of crime and fearful ret
ribution. The plot is quito familiar to all.
Ii tells of temptation. sinful love, and
tendlsh punishment. The strength lies in
| Gmthe's mastery delineation OF the char
~acters, and in the impressive lesson Taught
reasons Mr.. Morrison might better
have left out the leyity incident TO the
FL at acts. A play of that sort 10 better left
as ii was written and without attempt to
make what liz known "a q popular" per-
formance. There is very little of humor in
G@the's Martha. Too much can haraay DO
said of the general performances. It was a
splendid illustration of q great dramatic
masterpiece, we'll acted and with effects
| which, while out of place in most perform
| ances of this character, added great I'M
pressiveness last evening. il was a great
production indeed, and will be long renem-
hered. III Broken scene was especially
fine. The spectacular elements were never
in better place than in this performance or
Faust, and all were very we'll done.
Mr.. Morrison's Mephisto is a character
we'll worthy OF study. 1t is his idea OF the
devil after all that can be learned concern
ing this parsonage. Mr.. Morrison finds
him a genial fellow, thoroughly equipped
with %lnsinuating graces, but grandly re-
lent!ess when the victims arc within his
tolls. His smile is soft and pleasing at
times and then again SO ghoulish that n
shivers at the view. Thus it may be said
that the actors art was reached when his
Mephisto impressed the audience as having
all the requirements.
Miss Florence Roberts is not altogether
the ideal Marguerite in the first act. she
seems to lack in the appearance OF maid
enly innocence noticeable in Juch's Mar
guerite. In the dramatic scenes and IN the
death she showed unusual dramatic power,
and at all times her acting evidenced CON
scientious effort.
Mr.. OWENS Faust, while not altogether
brilliant, was very good. Miss Carter, as
Martha, is one of the cleverest actresses
seen in this city in a long time. Her idea
of Martha's character may not be that OF
the author, but her acting betrays finish,
resultant from long experience and study
in the best schools. The other characters
were well done and the company Is strong
and we'll balanced throughout.

Herrmann's Unique Show.

Hermann, aided by his pretty wife, Nine.
Hermann, will be seen at Ming's opera
house June - and 10. The Hermann COM
bination holds a unique position on the
boards of the American stage. There is no
entertainment similar to it in the country,
nor is there any word in the English ian
guage which can properly describe it. 1t is
entirely sui generis. Hermann, the prin-
cipal feature of the combination, has de-
veloped ont of his own inner consciousness
what was deemed almost an imposslblllty.
He has created a new departure in amuse-
ments. His business is a pleasant relief
from the ordinary dramatic or operatic at
traction. 1t is entirely different from the
commonplace work of the magician as the
electric light outshines its coal oil predeces-
sors. His entertainments are unique,
amusing and full of delightfully."- unexpected
surprises. The man himself is a marvel.
He has traversed every part of the uncivll-
lied as we'll as the civilized globe. He has
grown up in his business from a boy. He
speaks with ease all the modern languages
and half a dozen besides of Asiatic and
African dialects.
