There will be many elements OF interest to
playgoers of Toledo and vicinity in the revival
OF Sardou's intensely dramatic repertoire by
Americas foremost actress, Fanny Davenport,
at the Valentine theatre. for three nigns, begin
ming Thursday evening. March II. On Thurs
day night she will present LA Tosca" and on
Friday and Saturday nights, cleopatra" :"
Fanny Davenport has no superior as a con-
nOisseu- in judging of the m erits Of play, nor
has she one to surpass her as a produ Ger of
drama when once it has met her approval. She
has the intelligence, the willingness to kpend
money generously in O proda ctioa, and, above
all she is thoroughly competent to assume the
role OF the leading character in play, all of
which well arms her for the conflict. Miss Dav-
enport has for years made the closest study of
every detail connected with the stage, both
before and behind the footlights. She is first,
last and alwaysR worker. She knows what she
wants and why she wants 1t. and being woman
OF determination and Intelligence and OF kindli-
ness of heart she achieves the desired result
with but little trouble. Some years ago Miss
Davenport created quite sensation in LA
Tosca," and the piece met with much comment
both from the press and public. Since then 1t
has been favorile with Miss Dayenport's ad-
mirers. Like all of Sardous heroines, La Tosca
is n woman of conflicting emotions, Her love
for Mario predOminates all else, but mingled
with this there is strong vein OF jealousy
which causes the undoing of both the woman
and her lover. 1t is ins characters like this,
which afford sharp contrasts, that Miss Daven.
port excels. Cleopatra still remains pleasant
memory to all who witnessed the performance
when last given In this by this popular actress.
Miss Davenport. il has been admitted, has made
OF the role 80 deep and exhaustive study, that
tho fascination OF Cleopatra is complete. From
the first act on to the very last, including the
great storm episode, a series of charming Egyp-
tian pictures will be presented. Miss Daven-
ports reproduction of the famous cleopatra
Barge" with its accompaniment of music, sing
ing, crowds of swaying adoring figures armed
Roman soldiers brilliant colored surroundings
and her own gorgeously attired parsonage, make
picture rarely witnessed on the stage. Miss
Davenport will be supported by a strong com
pany headed by Melbourn MacDowell, who is
the premier actor OF heroic juvenile parts OF the
American stage.

Toledo during Miss DavenpOrt's engagement

three nights and popular priced matt
nee Saturday. on Thursday even
ing, March 10th at the Valentine. Mr..
Golfers portrayal OF the wealthy, but
serve 80 days in jail for talking back to
the Judge when brought into court on
a trivial charge, and the ludicrous and
unexpected situations that constantly
develop throughout the play that keep
the audience in continuous roar OF
laughter. The prison scene in the sec
ond act where Mr.. Collier, as Fitzhugh,
the society swell is discovered in con-
vict garb doing the lock-step with the
other prisoners In quaint resignation,
proyokes screams of laughter, while
the Spanish dance by Louise Allen,
Fitzhugh's wife, in the last act is one of
great hits OF the piece. Won Bulow
Bismark Schmidt, the excltable Ger

BILE manner by Mr.. Dan Mason. M. L.
Hecher will again appear ae the tough
Deputy Sheriff, who has Fitzhugh in
charge while Maclyn Arbuckle as Rod

well meant offices are always getting his
friends into trouble instead of out of it,,
does his usual excellent work. The
entire cast is the same that was en-
ployed during the previous presenta-
tion, and Is competent in every partic-

attacke were made there the assaulting
party would be blown a hundred feet into

stockmen to Send Out q Roundup
Wagon to Destroy Them.
On account of the damage being done
by gray wolves on the Cheyenne River
reservation, 1t has been decided to send
out a roundup wagon for the purpose
alone Of looking after these pests. The
plan. which was organized by George La
Plant, one Of the reservation stockmen, is
to send out the wagon accompanied by
several good marksmen, we'll armed, and
accompanied by several good dogs, the
wagon to be supplied with provisions for
an indefinite stay, and to travel over the
reservation making wolf hunting a bust-
ness. In this way it is hoped to reduce the
number of. wolves. The losses from this
source the past year have been greater
than from all other sources combined, aud
stock owners have come to a point where
they must rid themselves of this source Of
loss, which takes away q large per cent.
of their profits. 1t is believed that such an
organized hunt can do more toward wip-
ing out tho wolves than any number of
occasional hunts which might he attempted,

seven cars. which carried the horses, one
Wagner sleeper and three tourist sieepers,
carrying the officers and men, and a freight
and baggage car utilized for transporting
the camp equipments and commissary
stores. The officers seemed to realize the
gravity OF the situation, but the cowboys
were as gay as though they were going to
the %semi-annual roundup. A band which
escorted Col. Grigsby to the depot played
patriotic airs during the wait and the train
moved away to the strains of "a Hot Time
in Cuba,"a cowboy melody which filled
the air.
One hundred and ten horses were taken
by the troops. About fifty more horses
will be needed TO supply troops "B' and
"E." A detachment of soldiers was left
behind to accompany these horses as soon
as they are selected. Great care has been
taken in selecting horses for this regiment,
nothing but fine young geliings from s TO
ayears old, of solid color, either gray or
black, and sound in every particular, have
been accepted. The other troops of the
regiment will start from their recruiting
points at about the same time, and reach
