Enthusiastic Audi
ence Attend Their
Entertainment and
Affair a Success@@ ~

Miss Luella Weinberger was certainly
a dream. This young lady took the part
of Joan of Arc, and when she marched
forth clad in gown of armor and sword
by her side, h military bearing was per-
feet. She was received with applause.
Nydia the blind girl was most ably re-
presented by Miss Margaret Williamson.
Little Nettie Seidler, who acted as page,
was credit to the entertainment, and
when she escorted Miss Margaret in
every one realized that this part would be
interesting. Nydia who appears before
the Goddess asking for the crown comes
in supported by the page. She carries a
basket of flowers, and after asking that
the crown be given to her, stops and
sings pretty little song. This is the
only sad part in the entire cast.
Mabel Waltman represented Pocahon-
tas in most admirable manner, and Miss
Florence Bond, as everybody knew,
would cleverly fill the part of Grace
Darling.
Ike. who is supposed to be great big
over grown boy, whose mother brings
him to the crowning, was represented by
George Moscript. Miss Florence Will
hanson took the part of Mary, Queen of
Scots and Nellie Jenkins represented
Queen Isabella. Queen Elizabeth, by
Mrs. John Knowles, was well depicted,
and the lady bore herself in a most
queenly style.
Clothed in colors of the American flag,
and bearing herself in most queenly
manner, it is quite natural that Miss
Olive Filteau should carry off the crown.
She had for her attendants three little
girls, one representing Cuba, another
Puerto Rico and another Hawaii. Co1um-
bia told the Goddess what she had done
for these three little orphans, and at the
conclusion of her remarks received the
crown. With the American flag waving,
and the audience cheering, the play came
to close by Columbia singing selections
from the national airs.
After the entertainment the ladies in
charge gave hop at which large num-
Der enjoyed themselves.

NEEDED IMPROVEMENT.
Soda Creek Being Strengthened BY Manage
ment Of Big Five.

Soda Creek is being Strengthened. For
many years the course of the creek has
not been such as to make the spot an ideal
camping place and in view of this fact, a
contract has been awarded, and work has
ALREADY commenced on this much needed
improvement. The old bath house which
has long been torn down, and where re-
mained only the treacherous hole, has
been filled. Surveyors have completed
their work and now the ground is being
laid out in lots which will be leased to
the great army of terriers who will make
this locality their summer home.
There is no doubt but what there will
be more campers along Soda Greek this
|sumuer than ever in its history. Even at
the present time the place puts on an air
|of activity, and there is a throng of peo-
pie visiting the springs daily.
The new water tank is being put in
place at the natitorium, and the institu-
|tion is doing hourishing business.
There can be no cause for complaint now
from those who visit the pools. Steam
heat has been added and the bath rooms
are kept at an even temperature. The
new gallary which has been erected at a
considerable expense is filed with people
most of the time.

An Unwelcome Bath.

Martin Benson, miner, had a narrow
escape from delving into the Great Un-
known last Sunday night Benson had
been indulging little too freely, and in
the course of his wanderings arrived at
the bridge up Chicago Creek. AS he was
very tired he decided that rest would do
him good and accordingly perched him
self up on the railing. But his rest was
of short duration as he lost his balance
and fell backwards over into the waters.
The fall stunned him, and he hoated
down the stream for distance of more
than 200 yards. George Wiley happened
along and after much difficulty succeed
ed in pulling Benson out. Marshal
O'Rouke was notified and went after the
wounded man in a wagon. Upon arriv-
ing it was found that Benson was still
unconscious, so the services of a physi-
clan were secured. 1t was over two
hours before Benson was restored to con-
sciousness. He was bloated and COM
pletely filed with water, and if Mr.
Wiley had not put in an appearance at
the time he did Benson would certainly
have been drowned.
1t was afterwards learned that Benson
had dislocat ed his left elbow. He is now
able to be up, but it will be some time
before he will be in condition to attend
to his work.

Secures Good Position.

w. E. Pasmore, one of the best known
and most popular residents of this city,
has been appointed secretary of the
State Mine Operators association with
headquarters in Denver.
While it is regretted that Mr.. Pasmore
is to leave idaho Springs, the people as a
whole unite in offering their best wishes
and congratulations to one who has
always proved himself capable of hand
ling any proposition which has ever been
presented to him.
The Denver News says: "The election
of Mr.. Pasmore will make it possible for
the mine owners to proceed Systematically
with the campaign against high rates by
the smelter trust and equality of rates by
the railroads of the state"
Mr.. Pasmore went to Denver Monday
morning and received his appointment in
the afternoon. He will succeed DR.. Colt
man of Colorado Springs who resigned
on account of private business.
For number of years Mr.. Pasmore
was manager of the Kilton Sampling
Works of this city, and previous to that
time was connected with a railway Office
in Denver

Our Own
Talent%%

Idaho Springs may well feel proud of
its women folks. That they have rare
ability in the theatrical line was fully
demonstrated last Friday night at the
opera house, when the play, Samantha
Allen at the Cour, of Fame" was rem
dered before one of the largest and most
enthusiastic audiences that ever assembl-
ed in this city.
Although there were more than forty
ladies in the cast, each one took her part
in most creditable manner. The sue
cess with which the event passed off
showed that they did not want for re-
hearsel, and that they had taken the
necessary interest which is essential in
making such an event favorable issue
That the affair could not be repeated is
to be regretted, as there were hundreds
in the city who would have attended the
second night had it been possible for
Miss Harris to have remained in the city.
What do you think of one lone man in
company with forty women? 1t is GER
tainly enough to give one the shudders,
but George Moscript, to all appearance,
is the only one who would dare to brave
the ordeal. George was there, and in all
his glory, and he succeeded in amusing
both the people in attendance, and those
who took part in the entertainment.
Mrs. John Hanning took the part of
Samantha Allen, and the character which
she represented was indeed well taken.
Gowned in the old country fashion and
well qualified to take the part, she kept
the house in continuous uproar.
Goldye Starr, was Topsy, and it is
needless to say that she made a hit.
Miss Starr is one of the few young
women who are endowed with a natural
supply of wit, such as only comes from
the south, and she carried out her part of
the program in a most successful manner.
The Goddess, Clifiie Hanning, was
seated on her throne and represented all
that the word implies. She certainly as
sumed most queenly air, and when she
delivered the opening address, all present
knew she could be depended upon to
carry out her part of the program.

street, and Albert A. Rugg of Idaho
Springs. Miss Gaylor first met Mr.. Rugg
last summer, while on vacation trip in
the mountains, and the acquaintance then
formed soon ripened into warmer senti-
ments. Mr.. Rugg is well known min
ing man of the Springs, and Miss Gaylor
is a successful kindergarten and graduate
of the normal school. There were no
guests at the wedding, but few intimate
friends were asked to the reception which
followed at the BRIDES home Miss Gay
lor was gowned in tan travelling suit,
and her maid of honor, Miss Annie Free
man wore white. The best man was
Frank Raymond. After short trip, Mr.
and Mrs. Rugg will go to housekeeping
in Idaho Springs.
