oMIKADOn THE OPERA.

Columbia Opera Company gave
it's second opera at the Grand
Opera House last night to only a
fair sized audience. The time
worn "MikadoD was the bill,
which probably accounts for the
non-appearance of the usual
crowds of the theatre patrons.
The roles were very well assigned,
Miss Ethel Balch singing the lines
of "Yum Yum" in a very sweet
manner and acting the part very
prettily. Miss Macheill rose to the
requirements of the somewhat
thankless role of 'fKatisha" in a
thorough manner, and the remain
der of the cast was very acceptable
to the audience. A matinee is
being given this afternoon.

ROMANTIC EL0PENENT.
Conducted Under Protection Of
Uncle Sans Government.
The Old sorrel Mare Was Carrying
Mail bag, SO Luke Marshall and
the Pretty Myers Girl Couldn't
lie stopped.

Somehow this contention of the
street car employees and others who be-
lieve that United States mailbag does
not confer high powers upon bobtail
horse car or any other uncommon kind
of vehicle serves to revive memories of
the employment of Luke Marshall and
the Myers girl.
There never was, says the Chicago
Record, such an elopement in the his
tory of the Teton country. 1t was the
most deliberate, tranquil and leisurely
running away with which record had
before or since dealt. The elopement
was two days in its progress from one
given point to another, and the given
points, which were Myers ranch, up in
Maryyille, and Rexburg, down on the
mesa, were scarcely more than so
miles apart. And old man Myers hung
around in the rear and in front and at
the flank all that time, trying to stop
the enterprise, but being utterly
baffied by hearty observance and re-
gard for law.
Myers used to talk about rights and
justice and law end all that kind of
thing a great deal, and had made
speeches at many a mountain meeting
| against violence and illegal acts and SO
| on.
Blame it," he argued. IF you peo
pie go on lynchin' rustlers instid o
sendin' 'em down to Evanston for tria
you'll never git no post Office ner any
other favor O. the government, but'l
stay right on, passed. O. ignorant ex
lies" And he argued so well that law
less justice actually ceased, and eventu
ally star route postal delivery was es
tablished by an approving government
and in recognition of Myers service
he was doomed for postmaster and dep
uty marshal, both of which offices were
given to him. After that he was more
i legal than ever.
| Luke Marshall carried the mail from
Rexburg, riding the pass on his sorre
mare, and it was quite natural thai
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1897-12-10

he should fall in love with the girl
at the post office. Now Myers, for al
his earnest talk about lawlessness, had
already famed two men and shot the
ear off another because at various
times they had tried to prove to him
that he ought to let the girl marry
Luke Marshall was no such fool as
these. One day when he was ready to
leave for Rexburg he called to the post
masters daughter to fetch her jacket
and come on. The girl came out, and
Luke lifted her up to a comfortable seat
upon the mailbag behind him.
"Here! What's them?" cried old Ny
ers, marshal and postmaster.
"0h, we're going over the range to get
married." said Luke, casually. We're
eloping."
Old Myers drew up his Winchester.
"Jule! Git down off'n there!" he cried.
81 want fair aim to git that Teller square
through the eye"
This was where Marshall's nerve came
out strong. "Git out of the way, you
anarchist" he cried. Don't you see
you're delaying the United States mail!
A man of your age! A man holdin'
two public offices! Delayin' the
gov'ment of the United States as it is
represented in this sorrel mare an this
bag. Stand aside or I'll have you
as deputy marshal arrest yourself
as a private citizen, an call yerself as
postmaster to witness the breaking OF
the law"
Old Myers slowly let his gun down.
"You mean-you-" he Dlumbled.
'T mean that this sorrel mare repre-
sents an actually is the gov'ment of the
United States, an you delay her on her
travels at your risk"
But hold on, Luke. That's my
girl"
Marshall drew his silver watch. "Are
you an anarchist, an outlaw, an attack
err of gov'ment an a fanatic?" he in
ouired. Its ten o'clock" And as
Myers sullenly stepped aside the elop-
ers started off at a slow jog.
Old Myers followed them all the way
to Rexburg and tried to catch Luke off
his governmentally endowed sorrel
mare, but without avail, for the mail
carrier knew his limitations and did not
dismount until he reached the justice
shop in the town. And of course after
that the law-abiding Myers couldn't
be expected to shoot his own son-in-law,
mail route or no mail route.
