Highly Appreciated.

The "war entertainment" given
last Friday evening in this place for
the benefit of st. James Episcopal
Church, was great success in ev-
cry respect. The plot of the enter
tainment was taken from the late
war, written in verse aud read with
numerous tableaux interspersed
throughout the reading. The first
tabieau was, Coming Thro' the
Rye" in three parts, the parting of
the lovers being prettily carried out.
The various pleasing tableax con-
sisted Of scenes in the hospital,
prison, camp-grounds, marching
through Georgia, When Johnny
Comes Marching Home, ETC., all
represented by young men in uni
form, which was quite effective, es-
peoially at this time while a war in
reality is raging. Judge White was
captain of the ranks and deserves
much credit for his untiring efforts
in training the boys. The Vacant
Chair" THE Soldiers Dream" and
''Tenting Tonight" tableaux we're
well represented and made very eff
fective by those songs being sung
which appealed to the heart of every
one present, especially those who
had experienced the late war. AS
there was fifty people taking part
in this entertainment, it is almost
impossible to give the names of all
participants. The special features
of the evening were: a song, There
are Many Flags" by little Hazel
Harris, daughter of the late and
noted Emma Abbott, which was one
of the most pleasing numbers of the
program-the little lady singing
very sweetly and dancing with ease
and grace. Harry Mallison's Cuban
song, rendered during the camp
scene, was the hit of the evening.
1t was original and quite up to date.
Walter Tanner sang THE Flag of
the Republic" in very creditable
manner. The tableaux representing
the trouble between Uncle Sam and
Spain at the present time were ex.
ceedingly good. The first tableau
represented Cuba asking for liberty,
Mrs. d. A. Hyde representing the
Goddess of Liberty, Miss Ruth Rob
bins as Cuba, all ragged and hun
CRY and begging for her freedom,
Mrs. Orebaugh representing Spain,
in bright coloring of yellow and
black, refusing to give Cuba her
liberty. The second tableau, Cuba
had gained her victory, tore herself
away from cruel Spain and crouch
ing at the foot of Liberty, was free.
Many were the expressions of praise
for the Columbian drill, composed
of twenty young ladies dressed in
white and carrying American flags.
The last tableau was medley pre-
senting a very beautiful picture.
Too much praise can not be given
to DR.. White, who managed and
was instrumental in the successful
carrying out of the evenings enter
taiument.

County Republican.
We rejoice to learn from the
above source that Mr.. Stevenson
has declared" that the Republican
Simpson-goldbug-gang SHOULD be
turned down and he would help do
it." The "Hanna gang" who con-
troll the Republican plant through
the vilest and most dishonest
means, is the only organized "gang"
of political and social pirates in
this town or county, and conse-
quently Mr.. Stevenson could only
refer to them. They villified and
wilfully lied about him during the
campaign and nearly each week
since his election, through their
organ and upon the streets, have
continued their despicable warfare
upon him-and now that Mr.. Ste
venson has resigned, this same gang
of hypocrites and character assas-
sins still attempt to place him in a
false position before the public.
The Republican gang need not
worry about Mr.. Stevenson's sue
cessor. He will be a gentleman
who will treat the Republican gang
with the contempt they deserve
"when they undertake to dictate
his policy"

Too Bad

The makers of Pride of Japan tree tea)
have advertised that Thos. Price, analytical
chemist of San Francisco, and Prof. !. r.
Kingsbury of the University of Utah, have
given them certificates that the above brand
of tea is perfectly pure.
The deduction drawn from this ANALYSIS is,
that the Pride of Japan tea which you buy in
the stores is perfectly pure.
While it is quite possible to buy pure tea
dixie Settings Besf) and pack it in Pride of
Japan packages, and submit it to chemists for
analysis; still we assert that the Pride of Japan
tea sold in this market is arti6cially colored
with cooring matter.
We don't know how these endorsements
were secured; but it is a pity that the names
of such eminent authorities should be used to
back up statements made in the advertisements
of Pride of Japan.

pure, but it is such tea as you would drink
yourself if you knew all about it.

The majority Of diseases begin with some

The Zebroid-The Longest steel Tape.


A new method of etching on glass or
porcelain has been patented by Herr
Retzlaff, of Berlin. The usual German
process consists in cementing a sheet
of tinfoil TO the surface. which is then
uncovered for etching by n skillful
cutting out of the pattern in the foil,
and washing away of the cement. The
improved plan is to perform this opera
tion more simply and perfectly by
chemical means. The pattern is print
ed or stencilled in grease colors on the
tinfoil, which is then fastened to the
glass by asphalt and the prepared
plate is placed In an acid bath that dis
solves out the exposed parts of the foil.
The asphalt is then washed off, when
the glass is ready for etching in the
usual way.
By means of the microtome, slices of
vegetable and animal tissues down to
Il thinness of about 1000 of an inch
are obtained for microscopic study.
| Prof Elmer Gates. of Washington,
has now gone further. and even slices
| up blood cells and microbes by cement
| ing them in "a single layer between two
glass slides and cutting the slides apart
with a very thin blade of copper sharp
ened to the highest possible degree.
| The fine grain of the copper causes II
to take an edge that no razor can APP
proach. The cells are again cut by
| repeating the operation. and 1t Is
| claimed that slices have been made
only LOO as thick as the thinnest pro-
duced by the microtome.
Selenium, hitherto chiefly an inter-
estlng curiosity OF the chemists labor

oring glass. When added directly to
the glass in the melting pot, it gives a
fine rose tint varying somewhat with

hardness of the glass; and when the
selenium is mixed with cadmium

The FINEST AND Fastest
TRAIN IN The West

This headline refers to the
fwcnty-eight hour train between
Denver and Chicago via the U. p.
ID. & G. Ry., Union Pacific R. r.
and Chicago & North Western Ry.,
which was inaugurated Feb. 9th.
The time of this train is FIVE
hours faster than the former sched-
ulc between Denver and Chicago,
and it's average speed is greater
thnn that attained by any other
train savo the limited traint be-
tween Chicago and New York.
Leaving Denver each afternoon nj
4 80, this train reaches Chicago at
S.45 p. M. the following day-but
one night and day being con-
sumed in the trip from the Rockies
to the Great Lakes-a feat in rail-
ronding which few years ago--was
thought impossible.
The equipment of this train is
entirely new and comprises the
most modern ideas which have in
recent years been applied for the
comfort and convenience of trnvel-
ers. There is, besides the regu-
lution baggage and mail carsi q COM
posite something entirely new
in the West which is combina-
tion of library, parlor. smoking
room and buffet, in which there is
bath room and n barber shop
presided over by first class ton
serial artist; modern chair car,
two of the most recent Pullman
Palace slecpcrs, and finally a
dining car in which meals will bs
served equal to the best restaurants
in the country and on the la carte
plan-pny only for what you eat
As to the outward appearance, the
train is OF uniform color with the
new-wide vestibule ends, which
gives the appearance TO the train
of being one continuous palace car
with little observation compart-
ment at regular intervals.
This train will certainly prove
most popular. especially as no ex-
cess fare is charged on it, the same
rates applying us on inferior ard
slowertrains.
