serve it.


overlooking last Saturday evening
to witness the presentation of Jack
Diamond, or the fate of a gamblers
wife," by home talent. Everyone
went with the idea Of seeing a good
play and none came away disap-
pointed.
The EXAMINER does not as a lule
mention the individual parts taken,
but it will make an exception in
this case for the reason that all
deserve it.
Earl Weber as Jack Diamond,
the leading character, played the
part Of an unsuspecting husband to
perfection. He has always made
a hit in this part and his last eff
fort was no exception to the rule.
Ed Hoover put good acting to
COOL effect in the part of Willard
| Graham, the deceiving friend. Ed.
did not have great deal to say
but plenty to do in carrying out
his part.
Ed Carey, as Daniel Peabody,
had the comedy part, and if the
fellow who wrote the piece had Sc
lected the man to fit it he could
not have bettered this section. 1t
was true to life.
Old Pop found himself easily
counterfeited by Chas. Hammond.
One would have thought Charlie
had been an habitual drunkard,
SO well did he portray this char
acter.
Pedro Sanchez and Joe, the Florida
Coon, were well taken by Fred
Mozart, though there was little for
him to do.
The little part Of Jake, the land
lord, was handled we'll by A. Short.
With tie ladies side Mrs. Mag
gle Anderson, as Annie Dennison,
was the leading character. She
has quite local reputation for
good stage work and in this play
she added laurels to her good re-
cord. Mrs. Anderson's dramatic
ability fou nd large scope in her
presentation and right we'll did
she use it.
Miss Tacy Young who had the
part Of Cordelia, the grim aunt,
was splendid. Her scornful frowns
and disdainful way was the de-
light of all. Little Leonia Dia-
mond was taken by that sweet lit
tie tot, Genevieve Williams. Her
childlike simplicity gave a great
charm to the part, especially when
youngster like, she was taking her
fathers side against the tongue
flashing Of the aunt.
Leonia Diamond, the 17-year old
daughter, was exemplified to per-
lection by Mrs. T. L. Smith, though
the part was short one.
The music was furnished by Mr..
and Mrs. Guernsey, Robt. Birch,
Marion Lindsay, Chris. Anderson
and Thor Nielsen and without
fattery, was the best ever heard in
the opera house.
All through the play the ap-
plause was unstinted and well did
all Of the players deserve it, for a
better presentation than "Jaek
Diamond" has never been seen in
Montpelier. The dramatic club
have reason to be proud and es-
pecially Mr.. Weber, under whose
direction the play was put on.
The company have been reques-
ted by several to repeat the play
and this will be done on the Dist.

Fish.
PLANS FOR A CANNERY.

CONCESSION FROM THE CAR.

Rear-Admiral William Evashintsoff of
the Russian navy arrived here yesterday
on a leave of absence, secured that he
might interest American capitalists in the
promotion of a great salmon-ishing in
dustry for which he has been given
special concession by the Emperor OF
Russia.
The proposed fishery is Avasha Bay, an
extensive and natural salmon trap on the
coast of Kamchatka, in latitude So de-
grees or little to the southeast OF the
extremity of the Alaska archipelago.
II have come here said the Russian
admiral when seen in his apartments at
the Palace, Ito establish fish business
and to find capital to build and equip q
cannery.
"Offers were made in Astoria, but they
were on too small scale. l want to turn
out not less than 100000 cases of salmon
a year and may be as many as 1000 cases
day. In order to do that capital of $3.50, 600
is required for the establishment of suit
able cannery.
1.-The Emperor granted me the conces-
sion on March 81 for period of ten years,
with the privilege of renewal. The right
virtually amounts to monopoly.
"Avasha Bay is not nearly so far north
as most Americans think. 1t is in the
same latitude as the southern boundary of
Alaska, and has a very much mllder
climate than places in the same latitude
in Europe, because it is tempered by the
Japan stream. The bay is fifteen miles
long by ten miles wide and has a very
narrow entrance. Several rivers flow into
it from small lakes. SO 1T is a natural fish
trap. And fsh-well, the Columbia River
is not to be compared with it. Is it a
bigger field2 You bet it is.
81 have been there many times while on
my cruises in China waters. With my
own eyes have seen how thick the fish
are. l have been in my own boat and
have seen the movement of waters caused
by the big schools of fish. There are king
fish, bluebacks and siIver-sides, and their
flesh is that rich red so much priced in the
market.

untouched, and in the second place [ am

June Is, but for some reason the company
failed to enter either an answer or a de-
murrer in the time specified by law, and in
consequence yesterday Morgan Backus,
the Deputy County Clerk, entered a de-
fault against the defendant.
In some manner the attorneys for the
railway got notice of this proceeding and
there was an immediate rush to circum-
vent it. An application for stay of pro-
ceedings was entered and Judge Slack
granted ten days time to the defendants
to show cause why judgment should not
be entered against them.
