Tim Murphy To-Day.
Mr.. Tim Murphy, supported by Miss
Dorothy Sherrod and what is practic-
ally star cast, will present Opie Read
and Frank Pixley's great political TO-
mantle comedy of the reconstruction
period, The Carpetbagger, at the
Opera House this afternoon and even
ing, prior to an extended run of this
play in Chicago and New York. Tell
them, says the Why carpetbagger to
his daughter, when they say all the
wealth | brought to Mississippi was an
empty carpetbag, that when leave the
carpetbag will be filled" This is the
keynote of the first act of this re.nark-
able play, and through it all runs con-
tinuously the cynical philosophy and
sophestry of man who tries to excuse
his own dishonesty under the pretext
that everybody about him is crooked.
He holds his tools and underlings with
firm hand, and his quaint, quiet wit
is that which the reading public has
come to associate with David Harum. I"
This first act is a classic and will
stand with any dramatic production of
the past decade for clever dialogue.

of Miles Standish," which was well
characterized by Mr.. Clarke as Miles
Standish, Frank Parsons as John Alden,
and Mabel Stump as Priscilla. 4 col
lection was taken for the benefit of a

uted would show that the appreciative
audience did not leave their purses at
home.

people of the entire valley for his faith

THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY
AHTANUM.

The most enjoyable event that has
occurred for a long while was the de-
clamation contest held at Woodcock
academy last Friday evening. Seven
Young ladies and one gentleman COM
peted, and all showed the results of
most careful training and natural ability.
The selections were all from standard
orations, and thus all the speakers were
more easily compared. The program
opened with the vocal solo, Greeting,
BY lIawley, rendered by Miss Florence
shelton. The first speaker was Miss
Lovina Sherman, who gave "Toussaint
L'Ouverture' in very inspiring man
ner. Miss Edith Day followed with
Public Spirit by Demosthenes, deliv-
cred in a manner full of vigor. Mr..
shelton then sang the emission of the
Rose, by Cowen. National Injustice"
was Miss Florence Merritt's selection,
and was rendered in fine style, followed
by "Webster's Bunker Hill Grafton, !"
delivered by Miss Ora Griffiths in II
manner very worthy OF the grand orator.
Helen Smith then played THE Fair, :"
by Gurlitt. Robert Shelton, the one
young man on the program, gave Phillip
TO the White Settler in a way very
suggestive of the grim old warrior.
'.Spartacus to the Gladiators' was the
choice OF Miss Florence Shelton, and
was delivered in a manner full of power
and enthusiasm, and fully entering into
the spirit of the Grafton. 'The Night
ingale and the Rose" was the vocal solo
given by Miss Brooks. ''Lincoln's Get
tysburg Speech was very finely deliv-
cred by Miss Vera Wiley, followed by
The Minute Man of the Revolution"
given in enthusiastic, vigorous style by
Miss Meta Seward.
While the judges were preparing the
decision Mr.. Thomas Toll sang 1.-The
Red, Red Rose" and responded to an
enthusiastic encore with 1.-THE Daisies
In behalf of the judges, Rev. =. b.
Jackson Of North Yakima, complimented
The speakers on their finely rendered
parts, and told how difficult it was to
choose the best He presented the first
prize of IS to Miss Florence shelton, and
the second prize OF S. to Miss Meta
