thorne impersonated another singular
character very efficiently and earnestly.
Anna c. Titus as Bertha, the servant. has
only a half dozln words in the whole
play, but she does her part well.
The play is one that ELECTS very close
attention from the audience. This close
attention was given Wednesday night at
the opera house, and almost at any time
during the performance one could have
heard a pin drop, as the saying goes.
There is absolutely no action in the
piece. The lines, however, are 50 full Of
meaning that one must give his whole
attention to the stage, less he lose the
thread of the story. Even with its
tragic situations the play is smooth,
even and natural. Each character fits
its part just so. Human nature is por.
trayed in each character. The play is a
representation of Ibsen's portrayal Of
Norwegian life, and as it was produced
Wednesday night, it was very realistic
The play does not accomplish much in
the way of instruction or presenting a
moral. The representation OF Ncrwe.
gian life seems to be about the only
purport of lbsen' work.
The first night was brilliant and
distinct success. Everything on the stage
was perfect. Each member Of the com
pany lad learned his lines; the responses
were quick and bright. There was no
hitch nor suspension to mar the even
tenor Of the play. The scenery was
bright and new and appropriate. The
stage setting was elaborate and realis-
tie, representing the interior OF room
in handsome villa. The costumes were
appropriate to the roles. We unhesi.
tatingy predict successful southern
tour for Miss Otis and her company and
an extended run of the play in New
York city.

OLIVE OIL IN ARIZONA.
The Rise of Great Industry in the
Southwest


"Olive oil is row being shipped by the
ton from the Salt river valley OF Arizona
and the business is on the BOOM" said d.
f. Franklin of Phoenix, Ariz. THE en-
tire valley is becoming dotted with olive
orchards, and at this season of the year
the trees are covered with thousands Of
tiny little star-like buds. which will soon
be followed by the fruit formation.
which, when matured on the tree will
amount to hundreds Of pounds of fruit.
Olives remain on the trees until they are
thoroughly ripe before they are picked
to have the oil squeezed and pressed from
them.
When the olives are ripe it requires n
large number of hands to pick them. for
the work must be done quickly This is
usually done by spreading large canvas
sheets around the trees upon which the
pickers throw the olives as they are
plucked off the branches. Once they are
picked the fruit is carried to the crushing
machine, which breaks the fruit up much
as apples are crushed for cider The
pulp is then put into a machine which
presses the juice from it which runs off
into Il tank where by force of gravity
the oil proper rises to the top and is
skinned off and put away for several
months to settle before it is bottled ready
for the market. 1t requires about seven
ty-tive pounds of fruit to produce Il gal
lon of oil. Washington Star.

For Benefit Of the Armory +.

The famous old war drama, "Twixt
Love and Duty" to be presented May
IA and l5 by Company E., n. &. w.,
carries one OF the most beautiful stories
ever told in melodrama. 1t begins in
the northern home of Mrs. Armitage
whose son George is madly in love with
Bess Bradley, a southern girl who is a
temporary sojourner under the Armi-
tage roof while she attends an academy
nearby. His love is returned by Miss
Bradley who, however, endeavors to
keep him from enlisting in the Union
army. She is ably seconded in this
effort by Mrs. Armitage who cannot
bear to part with her only son, and
George will not be dissuaded claiming
that the spirit of his dead father (who
fell at the battle of Bull RUM is calling
him to fight for the old flag and he
marches away.
In the second act, for which an en-
tire new stage setting is being prepared
is the camp ground of the union army
as seen by moonlight. Some splendid
comedy is introduced curing this act by
Sockery Schneidelbecker German SOL
