"Too RIch to Marry"

''Too Rich to Marry" the comedy which comes to the Auditorium Thursday and Friday, with a matinee performance, is clean and wholesome. There is not a ribald jest or an offensive line in the play. The humor is keen, brilliant and mirth-provok- ing situations follow so closely upon each other that the audience is kept in con- tinuous roar of laughter. From the rise of the curtain to its fall there is not a dull moment. The action is quick, the senu- merits pronounced and the situations so effective that no one can fail to enjoy the preSen ratiOn

ADJUSTMENTS.

There was Pair of Tramps" at the Auditorium last night who outraged one Of the largest audiences ever assembled in that place of amusement. According to the pro- gramme there were only two persons who were tramps, but as a matter of fact the whole company was ragged and ere the sea- son ends may be hungry or calculating the distance intervening between two ordinary railroad crossties To this abortive attempt as a continuous funny performance there was one redeeming feature. Miss May Myers took the part of a negro tramp and carried her role admirably. Her imitation of. the masculine voice was excellent. The other tramp acted quite natural, and might have been a bright star in the real tribe of walking delegates There were several attempts al singing, all of which proved futile One poor fellow on roller skates pre- scented a ptiable spectacle when he at tempted to exercise his vocal organs in the shape of a song. The crowd wouldn't stand for il, however, and drowned out his voice with howls and cat calls. The man then danced a roller skate clog on an eighth-inch marble slab, which was very creditable.
 After the performance many persons eX- pressed the hope that ''Tramps", whether in pairs or threes, would hereafter take through line side door sleepers without stop-over privilege at Birmingham.

"Zaza.''

The management of the Jefferson has arranged with MT. Charles Frohman for appearance here of his company, presenting David Belasco's interesting play, ''Zaza. ;" Every one is familiar with the enormous success this play has achieved. Belascos S "Zaza" is very successful and is con- ceded by all who keep posted on all things theatrical The story is intense and the theme carries the audience in suspense to the final fall of the curtain. Zaza, a wild, reckless and thoughtless woman of the vaudeville stage, bestows her heart upon a who is already the husband of an- other woman and the father of little girl about s years old. Zaza learns the truth rom the innocent pratlings of her lovers ch.Id. who touches her heart and robs her of all thoughts of vengeance. That the play will be presented by MT. Charles Frohman is a guarantee that the production will be an adequate and proper one. While MT. BelaSco's name author of the play should be assurance that it is we'll worth the patronage of the people. It will be pre- sented here tonight. and the advance sale of seats is already large.

which are displayed bewildering variety
of contrivances and luxuries for bicycle
riders. The advance guard of manufac-

seducer Got III. Deserts.

Captain Frederick j. Mills, late lieu
tenant governor of Idaho, was recently
acquitted OF the charge of murder in Salt
Lake. The jury was out only quarter
Of an hour, just long enough to elect. 1
foreman and take d ballot. Such find,
ing was expected by everyone and the an.
nouncement of the result OF the ballot was
not followed by anything sensational.
Mills was charged with the murder of
John G. omelveny, chief engineer of the
Oregon Short Line, in that city, October
y, last. The evidence showed that while
the defendant was absent serving as an
officer in the volunteer army of the United
States his wife and Omelveny became
criminally intimate. The defendant
learned of these facts on the day of the
tragedy, his wife making full confess
sion. The killing followed. The defend
ant pleaded the Utah statute, which justi-
ties husband who kills his wife's Sc
Queer, and also set up the plea of in
sanity. Mills will probably return to
Idaho in few days. His wife remains in
Salt Lake.

MINING NOTES.
Parties just down from Frosty creek,
the new mining district 20 miles from
Ellensburg, Wash, report a rich strike
of white quartz, in which the gold can
be seen with the naked eye.
Another rich strike has been made
in the Cle-Elum district. and this time
on the Ida fillmore property on Haw-
kins mountain, about 25 miles from Ell
lensburg. A blind ledge has been'
struck containing very rich ore. A
rough estimate of its value places it at
$1,000 to the ton in gold.
The Standard Mining Company at
Wallace is preparing to made some re-
pairs to it's mill, and to build its Can
yon creek fiume board higher, and in
order to facilitate the work the mill
will be closed down during the day and
run at nights.
The Queen of the West group at Flor
ence, Idaho, was sold by John Wells, C.
T. Cone and Evan Evans to eastern par
ties for $4,000 cash. This group is
the only patented mine in the district,
and Is developed by two vertical shafts
which have four and six-foot lodges,
netting from $12 to $1s gold per ton.
Judge Beatty of Idaho has issued a

purposes, and while thousands of dol

is too small to work the mine on the

"She not only possesses what
one calls grand voice, above all
in the register where dramatic
sopranos shine, but she is real
vocalist. We heard her last night
in the most difficult execution and
in several trills, very, beautifully
carried, which prove that she has
been at good and honest school,
and one that has not taught her
to avoid difficulties, as so many

AT THE BALL.

Shortly before 8 o'clock the crowd
began to gather at the old high
school building, which had been pre-
pared for the evenings enjoyment.
Soon there was throng present,
and shortly after the appointed time
the program of the evening was be-
gan, the fisst thing being the christ
enlng cf the new fire alarm bell. A
group of children sang, after which
Father FROM made short but elo-
quent talk and an invocation over
the handsomely decorated bell, which
was then rang by the sponsors,
Misses Alice and Leah Eckart. and
the maids of honor, Misses Ethel
DeGeneres and Lucy Lacour. After
blessing the bell, the entire group
on the platform sang "Hall Colum-
bla," and this ceremony was over.
Then came the crOwning Of the
Queen of the Tournament, and this
was indeed feature. The band
played as the Queen, Miss PelIerln,
ascended to the dais surrounded by
her ladies and knights, and knelt to
receive her crown from the hands of
the king, Mr.. Dupcrler, the victor
of the afternoons tourney. Upon
taking her seat the prizes of the
tourney were awarded, and the
grand march was taken up to the
ball room, where the light fantastic
wastrlpped till "lhe wee sma hours"
of the morning.
The members of No. 2 and then
lady friends surely "Gid themselves
proud" IN their celebration, AMI we
hope they may be encouraged to do
even better next year.
