Once a play was given at the house in
which the chief scene was in a saw
mill, where the hero was about TO be
slain by villains who had tied him to
the log carriage. and We're in the act
of moving him up to the whirling saw.

by Clay Clement tomorrow night, is
Leopold Lewis characterization of the
story of that name by Erckmann-
Chatrain. The thread of the story is,
briefly stated, as follows: Matthias, an
innkeeper, to save himself from ruin
and his family from starvation, muir
ders a Polish Jew. The crime was
sound Of the sleigh bells, which the
Jews horse carried, forever after
haunts Matthias. Not a soul, save
himself, knows of the crime. He be-
comes wealthy and influential, but the
fear OF discovery is a burden upon his
mind. He marrieS his daughter An
nette to a young gendaTme through
whom he fears discovery The night
before the wedding Matthias sleeps in
a lovely attic. He dreams, and in his

nOtist is summoned and Matthias is

happy throng at his daughters we'd
ding. The scene is laid in Alsace; the
time, 1S33-4S.
Next week we have Clay Clement at
the Salt Lake theatre. 1 always did
like Clement. He is an actor who I'M
derstands his business. His plays are
always clean, possible and human.
There are no FrankenSteinS, no psyche
logical monstrosities, no impossible or
unnatural situations in any of his
dramas. The New Dominion and "a
Southern Gentleman" both fine plays,
portray we'll and truly and in fine
lineaments a noble type of character,
and both present types of chivalry said

mutton heads. 1t is uncanny.
My old friend T. F. O'Maney, of the
Clay Clement company, is in town; We
all know Mr.. O'Malley. 1t is a cold day
when he has no story to tell. Yester-
day he told me of the trouble he had
with props" (stage jargon for prop
erty) IL a theatre in Seattle.
In counting out Anetta's dowry in
1.-The Halls" Mr.. Clement uses about
s., 600 in gcld-genuine gold-and also
several sacks supposed to contain gold.
After the scene the gold is put in the
SAFE, OF course, but the other sacks are
box Two cOVetous theatre employees,
who thought that the gold was in the
box. entered the theatre by means of
the skylight and stole the box. They
hauled the box--which weighed about
$50 pounds-through the sxylight by
means of a rope and carried il three
miles from the city. They had been
watched, of course, and just as they
had completed their cache a constable
seized them. But Mr.. O'Malley being a
kind hearted man, compromised the
matter by having the two culprits carry
! the box back to the theatre and taking
/ from them a bond for $4,000 with
friendly drink mixer as security.
Harry c. Lewis, the manager of the
Salt Palace Vaudeville says that a,
number of years ago my old friend
/ Bill Root, now of Salt Lake, ran an
! opera house at Laramie, Wyo. In those
] days Laramie, being the last stand be-
| fore long jump westward of about
] 500 miles, was q celebrated place for
| stranded troupes. In the course of his
! career as the manager of an opera
| house Colonel Root achieved greater
/ success as a pi3ilanthropist than as a
| financier. He leased a large barn near
his theatre and fitted it up with beds,
/ tables and cook stove for the accom-
/ mediation of his impecunious Romeos
! and JulieJs. Whenever his opera house
was not otherwise engaged Bills
actors used IL in giving benefits to one
another. The proceeds of the benefits
were used first in defraying the ex-
penses of the hotel, and then what re-
manned was used in shipping actors
home. Sometimes transforming eX-

RE HOPE that actors will not be
# offended if 1 sometimes speak
"a Of their art and also Of the stage
e. with an air of unseeming lavity.
~ but L look upon the stage as
nothing higher or better than a
means Of amusement All playa very
few excepted-are written to entertain
and amuse and are good only so far
as they fulfill that purpose. Much has
been written III vain attempts to show
that the tinsel. the limitations and the
counterfefts of the stage play an i'm
portant part in educating and refining
the public. The fact at the bottom Of
the question is simply this: The play
is written and produced to please a
taste that already exists to harmonic
with sentiments aroused by other agen-
cies. and to correspond with ideas Gre
ated and developed by other means.
The play is to the public what the toy
IS TO the child. If the toy is too cum
bersome or too complicated, or too
pain, it does not amuse the child. If
the toy does not attract something is
wrong either with the child or with the
toy. Always examine the toy before
you doctor the child.

e. tragedy-a comedy-a whatever YOU
want to call twas presented at the
Salt Lake theatre. A word as to the
merits of that play and others like it.
The first scene, or prologue sO-caIled,
introduces the most sacred scene and
touches the most tragic theme known
to humanity. 1t introduces PLATE, He
rod, Peter the Apostle, and other Bib
hcal characters, and exhibits scenes
representing the trial of Jesus before
Plate and the crucifixion. The next
three acts are more nearly allied to
comedy than to tragedy-especially
such tragedy as is suggested in the
prologue. They are devoted to the So
luton Of the perpIexities surrounding
two lovers. The anti-climax is COM
plste- From the tragic theme of the
prologue we drop down to a triffing ro-
nance. We then form the great and
tragic figures around the cross to lis

audience expressed its appreciation. .
THE most conspicuous ornaments
on the platform were Abner Mckinley
and two punches of scarlet peonies as
big as bushel baskets on either side of
the presidents table. / never before
saw flowers used for decorations at a

have been abundant, and the corners

the way a republican correspondent

the republican convention. How
coldly the proceedings and results of
the convention have fallen upon the
country may be partly explained by
the indifference and disgust that pre-
vailed in the convention hall.

Like a Frost Upon the Country.

The proceedings of the Philadel phia
convention created scarcely a ripple
of interest among the people. Sat-
urday nights fizzle was no exception
in this respect. This was the case
not only in Rock Island, but every
where that reports have been received
from. Even in Philadelphia and in
the convention hall there was no
manifestations of the enthusiasm that
usually accompanies national conven-
tions. Spectacular incidents were
prepared and introduced. but without
efrecting any special demonstration
of applause. The reading of the plat
form was a signal for a general STAN
pede, even of delegates. from the hall,
and it was received with disgust by
the republicans elsewhere. The NOM
mating speeches were received list
lessly and the nomination of the can
didates did not create the applause
that similar events were greeted
with in previous national convep-
tions.
These statements are cold facts
not the invention of opposition
sources or partisan malice. Will

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for indigestion or bill
iousness. Doctors were scarce, and
they seldom heard of appendicitis,
nervous Prostration or heart failure,
etc. They used August Flow
er to clean out the system and stop
fermentation of undigested food, reg
ulate the action of the liver, stimulate
the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they took when
feeling dull and bad with headaches
and other aches. You only need a
few doses of Green's August Flower,
in liquid form, to make you satisfied
there is nothing serious the matter
with you. Sample bottles free at T. "a.
