changes. For instance, Ia regard to their
health When their stomachs become weak,

TOPICS OF The THEATRE


Brilliant but innate stage pictures
are promised us on the appearance of
julie Walters in his merry comedy,
"Side Tracked" at Harper's thea
tire tomorrow night. Mr.. Walters is
SO well known to theatregoers as the
gentleman tramp that he hardly
needs an introduction. His natural
method of portraying the wandering
Willie has made him world famous,
and his play Side Tracked lives be-
cause of Mr. Walters genius aud
originality. During the action of the
play some high-class vaudeville fea-
lures will be furnished.
Theatre folks, of course. know all
about Thomas Jefferson. who appears
at the Burtis Sunday evening, but The
general public has only hazy idea
that MIR. Jefferson has any children.
True they have read of c. B. Jeffer-
son, who was formerly associated
with Klaw & Erlanger, and that he is
good business man, and that there
were other sons, grandsons and
nephcws of the venerable comedian
who travelled with him, but the infor-
nation is meagre and contradictory.
Thomas is the one who acts. and he
always has time for a smile and q
chat. He realizes the value of his
fathers creation of Zip" and he is
not going to let it get out of the fam
lily if he can avoid it. In a letter to
his son, Tom, the wise old comedian
says: "Remember ability and early
success are of but little use without
honest, earnest and conscientious en-
deavor. Actors who merely play for
their own amusement regardless of
the public duty have but a short
reign" So it would appear that
Joseph Jefferson has n pretty clear
idea of the duties an actor owes to the
public as well as to himself
''The Girl From Maxim S." a new
French farce, will be presented at the
Burtis opera house next Wednesday
evening. Miss Hattie Williams plays
the part of the ''girlr and it is said
gives a sprightly and dashing inter-
probation. The company is large
one and is made CUP of very clover
people, many who are we'll and favor
ably known. There are lively and
comical scenes all through the piece.
The story of the farce begins with
the discovery made by friends of
respectable physician, who drop into
his rooms in the morning, that he is
asleep under the sofa, and that his
rooms are occupied by nonchalant
sort of young lady who is a stranger
to the physicians household. When
the physician is awakened and learns
of the young lady's presence. the
only explanation is that when he was
out with the boys the night before,
he visited Maxim's, q famous Paris
cafe frequented by Americans. and he
supposes the girl came home with
him. She processes ignorance of the
fact that it is his home. In the midst
of the explanations the physicians
wife comes in and many ludicrous
IMPLICATIONS. follow.

c. L. Scribner, 8 prominent citizen of Pinal county, whose home was near Casa Grande, died at the California Hospital in Los Angeles on the Sth instant from rare and peculiar disease, closely resembling leprosy. It is said there had been but fifteen cases like it ever recorded in the United States. Mir. Scribner was attacked more than a year ago, and tried all manner of remedies until two months since he went to Los Angeles, where his con dition was declared hopeless. The skin all over his body had grown to be a quarter of an inch thick, and had peeled off. The finger nails had fallen out, and his sufferings were intoler- able. He described it by saying 1t felt like rats were gnawing at him con tinually. Death came as happy release. Mir. Scribner leaves consider able property and many friends throughout the county. The remains were buried at Casa Grande last Mon- day.
