dWdhthS Interest anu nOl<S III.
Miss Bancker's ability to express the
capriCiousness and volatile essence OF
pure femininity recalls Rosina Vokes,
the appealing irrelevance OF whose
answers to masculine argument were
irresistible, especially when clinched
and bolted by song and dance. Miss
Bancksr neither sung nor danced.
more's the pity, but her quick replies
and bird like movements are certainly
like the famous Vokes.
The company was Of indifferent
merit, neither very good nor very bad.
"A Divorce Cure" was preceded 10y
one act drama by W. S. Gilbert called
Comedy and Tragedy" which presented
an incident of the time when actors and
actresses had no legal standing and
were CEASED IS vagabonds. In this
drama Miss Bancker had the stage to
herself throughout. Such lines as she
used are dear 10 tie heart of the eiocu-
zionist. They range from comedy TO
tragedy and end with startling climax
and curtain.
"A Divorce Cure" is on the "Similia
Similibus Curantur" principle. The
husband destroys the wish for a divorce
by making it very easy to obtain and by
apparently giving his wife up with pleas
ure. Immediately he appreciates in
value and the object of her previous AL
miration becomes "a dirty little
monkey" The play stabs divorce and
attempts to resuscitats the old fashion
ed idea Of 'once married, forever
united" etc, and the gallery applauds
vigorously.
The construction OF the play is very
bose. Perhaps when Harry ST. Maur
translated it from the French Of Sardou
he left out the articulations. For Ger.
tainly the body and the limbs do not
hold together. 1t must be st. Maur for
the articulation in Sardou's creations
is perfect. For instance a man namei
Grover Pursely appears in the first act,
he takes up more than his share Of the
time and stage, considering that he APP.

Upon the relations between him and his
wife. Thereafter no ore knows any

less Jew. | suppose he is warning to
the two about to be divorced. Like the
Due D'Orleans in the Curtain Raiser
his fate is uncertain. By the way the
parts Of the Due and Of Grover PurseIy
were taken by the same man-Mr. J. p.
Cope. His destiny aud fate sighted in
both plays have still not deprived bin
of an apparent interest in lie. Perhaps
the ribbons and the magnificent ap-
pearance he makes as the Due do much
to smooth the manner of his passing
But play with the moral SO obvious

a large hou so at the Funke on Monday
the 18th. 1t was an appreciative and
yociferOus audience made up of univer
sity professors and their choice and mum
bers of less distinguished citizens who
joined in calling Mr.. Clement before the
curtain several times. This young man
is the heir apparent to the Joe Jefferson
throne elective monarchy and with
held capriciously from claimants who
have made money and fame. But such
a position as Joe Jefferson occupies is
the free gift of loving people. No one
can claim it, Richard Mansfield least of
all because, he does not love the lamb
you know" but dispises it and Sol Smith
Russell has not the ability. Clay
Clements intellect and taste are as
powerful and exact as Richard Mans
fields and he is modest, gracious gen
tleman besides. The lamb loves him
and bleats with rapture wherever it sees
him. When his glossy hair has turned
from brown to white Clay Clement viii

might be better. Miss Rolinda Balm
bridge who was Flora May Randolph
was artificial though pretty and graceful.
Miss Kara Kenwyh, wh) has made the
part Of the widow celebrated, wore
fetching gowns and was very bewi CHI
ing. Her part is too automatic and
didactic. Some of her speeches. are
editorials. She speaks of matrimony
with too much authority and decision
for a wife of two days. Some of the old
Niger Poly's lines could be cut with
much relief to the audience. The black
buffers of the south are not allowed so
large an opportunity to exercise their
natural loquacity. Next to Mr.. Glenn
ent l thought the villain Mr.. Chas.
era z. did the cleverest work. His vii
lainy was repulsive, beefy, mercenary
vdlgarity For its consistent brutality
and attention TO detail Mr.. Craig is en-
titled to an appreciation from review
which the williams work never receives
from an audience. Miss Amalia
Gardner, as the poor relation, had the
accent and atmosphere of the Tennessee
mountain girls in Chas. Egbert
Craddock's books. She was not
stagipye az the stagiest Of
parasitic deserted female. Miss
Gardner is young and unknown, but |
should like to see her in leading part.
She has imagination and originality.
Members of the audience who were lot
familiar with the south were over come
with admiration for the companiys
southern accent but the southerners
said it was very poor.
4 he play is not remarkable except for
Hohenstauffen. The plot is not new.
the other characters are conventional
but the German bot mist is something
new and delightful to theatre goers.
MAY he lif long ind prosper" The
action drags when the old butler has the
stage to himself. His lines and the
widows dicta could be cut with benefit
TO the play. The scenery OF the first act
is new and very effective.

dom, which is only another way of
showing how geographically insig-
ni6cant a place the latter is.
Extending the comparison to
other divisions of the earth, it is
found that the entire globe weighs
fifty-two and q half times a. much
as Europe, eleven and a half times
40 much 80 Asia, seventeen and q
third times as much as the two
Americas. The citizens of the
United States may we'll swell with
pride when the reflect that they
control the dostinies Of one-thir-
tesnth of the entire weight of the
globe. If, 40 is net improbable,
science should before long make it
possible to penetrate to great depths
into the earth, England would
doubtless make un warranted claims
to underground territory, and the
United Strtes would have to give
the Monroe doctrine . new appli-
cation.
The physical labor Of counting
the weight of the earth in tons is
stupendous. Mr.. Schooling i'm
AGNES that if the Coliseum at Rome
is haunted by the ghosts Of the 81
900 persons who once found room
in it, and that they have been
counting since A. D. 70 at the rate
of one hundred tons minute, they
would not have made q perceptible
impression on the total.

1t is hard thing to appreciate
the enormous weight of the earth.
The calculations of astronomers
have fixed this weight at 6,O69, OOO,-
OOO,OOO,OOO, 100000, or six thous-
and and sixty-nine quintillion tons.
J. Holt Schooling, . we'll known
statistician, has endeavored to make
these figures clear by weighing the
earth against the moon. Briefly
explained the earth weight as much
az IS moons would weigh.
1t is interesting to compare the
weight of the United Kingdom of
Great Britain and Ireland, which
considers itsels a very important
place, with that Of the whole earth.

The Settlement Of Lewiston.

pioneer" in the Lewiston Trib-
une, writes the following interest
ing notes on the first settlement OF
Lewiston:
On the 18th of May, 1861, the
steamer Okanogan landed and tied
up in the forks Of the Clearwater
and Snake rivers on her first trip
from Deschutes, Oregon. She was
loaded to the guards with freight
and passengers and was bound for
Orc Elmo, the new gold diggings.
She continued to make regular
trips and at one time went up the
Clearwater to a point whore S. S.
Slater had a quantity OF goods at
tempting to build up trading post,
but changed his mind and on the
last trip in May came down on the
Okanogau and settled at this point,
which was Heretofore nameless.
About that time several names were
suggested for the settlement, but
the one thought to be the most sig
nificant was Lewiston" in honor
of Lewis and Clark. Major Vic
Trevitt suggested the name, and
on June LIST, 1861, the fork Of the
Clearwater and Snake rivers was
christened Lewiston, Washington,
now Idaho. There were already
many tents, and business fourished,
but not q house nor anything look
ing like one was here, nor could you
find grsining timber enough to
make a toothpick within what is
now Lewiston city. Your subscriber
has sojourned in this world of sin
and sorrow long enough to state
that out of the sponsors Of Lewis
ton he can only name three who
are alive today: Capt. Eph. Baush-
man, john Anderson and James
McGrane. While there was quite
a crowd of strangers here, remem-
Der the names Of some Of the crew
of the Okaaogan that we're present:
Cant. Lou White was pilot; Eph.
Baughmau, mate; jim Boyd, chief
engineer; John Gerty, End engineer;
John Gates, purser; Charley Frush'

The case Of the state against l.

The case Of the state against l.
o. Wiley aud Frank Wiley,
charged with assault, has been dis.
missed on motion of the prosecut-
ing attorney, This was the case
which grew out of the Thornton
school trouble.
w. n. Rugglss the teacher in the
Thornton school at the time, was
dismissed. He brought the charge
against the Willcys although he
had himself provoked by unpro-
tessiOnsl conduct, the assault which
consisted only in the elder Wiley
laying his hands on Ruggles'
shoulders and speaking in what
might have been regarded as a
threatening manner.
After the institution of the GRIM
inal proceedings, Ruggles left for
Dayton with the intention, so the
prosecutor AYERS, of drawing q con-
siderable amount in mileage and
witness fees when the trial would
come up. This plan of grating on
the county was foiled, however, by
the dismissal of the case, Prosecutor
Mathews concluding that the pros
poet of heavy expense and the fact
that the Willeys had already been
punished proportionate to the ex-
tent of the crime, was sufficient rea-
son for dropping the case.l
Fred Kemp, the youth recently
arrested on q charge Of stealing
hour horses from Pat Shehan of
Thornton, and who was bound over
to the superior court by an Cakes
dale justice under 800 bond, which
was furnished, was re-arrested last
Saturday and lodged in the county
Jail. This was duo to the belief OF
the prosecutor that the bond was
insufficient. Tuesday Kemp was
&rraigned in the superior court and
pleaded not guilty, whereupon the
trial was set for June 10. Subse-
qusntly, however, the case was dis
missed on motion of the prescott
ing attorney, who had consulted
some of the states witnesses and
learned that the evidence was un-
doubtedly insufficient to convict
Commoncr.
