..MR. wILKINsoN,s WIDOWS,
A Notable PLAY 10 be Produced at
the Opera House Tonight.

Charles Frohman's Comedy company
will be seen in Gillettes' latest and most
successful comedy farce, Mr.. Wilk7nson' s
Widors, at the opera house tonight.
The comedy has just closed a long and
successful run of nearly $50 nights in
New York and played last week to the
largest receipts in the comedy history of
the Tabor Grand, Denver, and report
speaks highly of both play and company.
The cast includes the following well
known and capable people: Joseph Hol-
land, Mrs. George Drew Barrymore,
Emily Bancker, Matte Ferguson, Thomas
w. Ryley, Thomas H. Burns. John W.
Thompson. Annie Wood, Adelaide Grey,
Edw. Coleman.
Mr.. WiUtinson's Widows developes a
new complication in the line of comedy
farce. Though adapted from the French,
it maintains skillfully the many surprises
original in Its schemes, but localized BY
Mr.. Gillette. Mr.. Wilkinson does not
appear In the play, but it is shown that
when he was alive he was a lively char
acter. He lived in London and in Edin-
BUSCH where he had business in the wine
trade. In these cities he maintained two
domestic establishments. With this as a
basis Mr.. Gillette has given a comedy
with a lot of funny complications. Two
happy homes are turbulently excited, two
widows hopelessly mixed up, two hus-
bands made almost i%nsanely Jealous, and
it requires extrao rdinary skill to extrlcate
them from their troubles.
This beyond a doubt is one OF the best
companies that has eyer visited this city,
and the demand for seats has been the
largest this year. and we look for a
packed house.

ANOTHER FIRE AT La GRANGE
G. A. B~adserte's Store and the POST
Office DESTROYED

Another very destructive fire took place
at LaGrange on Wednesday. The news
of the fire only reached here Yesterday
morning. This was in a letter to Post
master Mast and a dispatch to +. w.
Whitcomb. These were very meagre and
did nothing but convey the news that the
general store of G. A. Bsdgette, In which
was located the postofice, had burned.
The details of the fire will probably arrive
here this morning. The fire started while
Mr.. Badgette was at lunch in the after
noon, but under what conditions it could
not be learned.
Mr.. Badgette is a son-in-law of E. w.
Wbitcomb. HIS stock of merchandise,
together with his house was estimated to
be worth $4,000. He carried the follow
ingi insurance policies: With the Traders

then located the postofice, as in this case
was entirely destroyed by fire. In bott

For Un,rersitY Extension

A small audience was present last even
ing at the Baptist church to hear Presi-
dent johnson of the Wyoming university
speak upon the subject of university x
tension. The plan proposed by the
speaker was to establish clubs in the
various towns and cities of the state. To
these clubs the members of the faculty OF
the university will deliver lectures upon
the subjects with which they are most
familiar. There will be a course of six
lectures which will be given within a
period of six months to the various clubs.
The result will be the furtherance of edu-
cation and culture. and will awaken an
interest in the work of the university
which will add much to its usefulness.
At the close of President Johnson's ad-
dress it was decided to meet on Monday
evening next to form a university extern
sion club and decide upon the first lecture
in the course.
During the evening the high school
choir rendered several pleasing musical
selections.

HE FAyoRs TT.
A Douglas Democrat Who Favors
Cesston of the Arid Lands.

To the Editor OF The Leader
DOUGLAS, Wyo.. March 17.-In order
to thwart any effort that may be made to
commit the democratic party OF this state
to opposition to the general propositionto
cede the arid lands to the states the
very facts of the matter should be distinct
" recorded. Thus far this question has
not been made a political one.
1t will be a fatal folly and blind faulty
that makes it such. The broad PROPOSE
ton that the arid lands be coded to the
states absolutely, or in trust, originated
with Elwood Mead. after profound and
practical study OF the needs, necessi-
ties and possibilities of this region. The
first public FORMULATION Of the PROPOSE
ton was made by the Salt Lake irriRa-
ton convention, an absolutely non-parti-
san body of men, yet one of the b~rainiest
and most thoroughly representative
gatherings ever witnessed in the west.
1t was most intelligently discussed and
heartily endorsed by the transit Mississippi
congress in Denver. after that by the
same congress at Its Omaha session and
again more recently at its session in New
Orleans.
Distinguished democrats and republl-
ans alike participated in the discussion
and Joined in approval of the proposition.
In congress-, both senate and house COM
mittees have discussed the question in all
its bearings and no division on party lines
has been suggested.
Viewing the matter, however, from a
purely political standpoint it would be i'm
possible to suggest a measure more pro-
foundly democratic in Its ssentia princi-
pies. Opposition to it inevitably resolves
itself into this propositions: The people
of the respective states cannot safely be
trusted to administer upon their own
lands. hence the power that lies in the
paternal arm of centralized federal govern
ment should be invoked to supercede their
incompetency and moral obliquitv. The
acceptance of such a dogma by democrats
would be infamous treason against the
fundamental principles of Jeffersonian
democracy, which emphatically afirms
tudI tuo pcupic vi bue bLateS Gun De
trusted to govern themselves and admin
lister their own affairs and that the strong
arm of centralized federal government
should not be permitted to invade
the domain of state rights and state
duties.
As THE LEADER suggests, expressed
opposition to the measure thus far seems
open to the charge OF being inspired by
personal antipathy to Senator Warren.
There is room for choice between the
Lanham bill, which proposes to cede the
lands without restriction. and the Warren
bill. which provides certain restrictions.
But the democratic opposition to the gen
erAl proposition involved. because of SEN
stor Warren's connection with the mat
ter. would be on a par with the political
sagacity of Colorado democrats who
should rise up in vehement opposition to
the free and unlimited coinage of silver
simply because republican Senator Teller
happens to favor it. F. Fl. HARVEY.

A NEW GUARDIAN ASKED FOR
Application Made to the District
Court in Behalf of George Maggie

Who ahall be the guardian of young
George Nagle's estate2 This is a ques-
ton that is once more raised, and will
only be settled BY the courts The ap-
pointment of w. A. Robins was trent
ously opposed by both Mr.. and Mrs.
Charles A. White, at the time of his ap-
pointment. The boy was also very much
dissatisfied by the selection of the district
court. The parties who opposed Mr..
Robins selection have employed Attorney
Walter r. Stoll to present their cause.
The petition which was filed in the dis
trict court yesterday is a very exhaustive
one, and sets forth more than a dozen
points which it alleges to be grave mis-
takes from a legal view point. 1t claims
that a person who has reached the age of
IA. has a right to choose his own
guardian, with the approval of the court.
1t claims, further, that all the relatives of
the boy throughout the country should
have been notified of the day the court
would appoint such a guardian. This
was never done and in fact the petition
demurs upon the ground that it was
illegal and unwIse. The petition asks
that the former appointee be disposed Of
and that young Nagle be allowed to select
his guardian from the list of names which
follows: Colin Hunter, A. 81. Reel, Ohas.
A. White, ex-Gov. Baxter and a number
OF others.
The case will probably come up in tho
district court next Saturday. If the
prayer of the demurrers is refused by the
district court the case will be appealed to
the upreme court.
