Arizona This Afternoon and Evening.

Arizona" This Afternoon and Evening".
Augusta Thomas successful play
ARIZONA" which has never before APP
peared in Maine will be presented at
the Opera House this afternoon at z.So
and this evening at o'clock. me
company appeared in Portland on
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings ana
the Portland Argus had the following
complimentary criticism of the play:
"a good sized audience was in at
tendance at the jefferson Theatre last
evening to witness the production OF
Augustus Thomas excellent drama
based on life on the plains of Arizona
There is an excellent plot which is well
kept throughout the play and which
holds the audience to the final fall OF
the curtain. The clever playwright
has woven into the action of the play a
dainty, bright and absorbingly inter-
esting love story. 1t is a wholesome
human drama and well deserves the
universal praise, bestowed upon it.
1.-The drama was produced under
the direction of Kirke La Shelle, and
as usual in the productions of this well
known manager the play was nicely
cast and the scenery of the best.
Arizona appeals and strongly, too, to
the mind ard senses of any one who
holds regard for real American man
hood. 1t never drags. The manly,
self-sacrifice of Lieutenant Denton of
the 18th United States Cavalry inter
feres to prevent his colonePs wife from
dishonoring her name. Through this
act of charity Denton involves himself
in u deal of trouble because he will not
explain to the colonel his presence at
night in the latter's apartments. In so
doing he shields the real plotter
against the colonels happiness, Cap
tain Hodgmah, WHO has sworn eterna!
vengeance against Denton for pre-
venting his elopment with the colonels
wife. Denton is dismissed from the
service and the remainder of the play
is given over to extracting him from
his difficulties and in setting him right
before the world. during which time
the unalterable friendship of Candy,
the wealthy ranch owner, and the love
of Canby's daughter. Bonita, for Den
| ton are mind sa tisfying features
1.-The role of Lieut. Denton was clev-
| erly borne by Francis M. Ball. Mr..
foiI WAS every men the soldier, even
| in the bucksl1ins of a rancher. Bul
| through and behind that was the man,
bred with gentlemanly instincts, i'm
| oued with the masterful teachings OF
| West Point. Frederick Watson exem-
plified the role of Watson in excellent
| manner, and John Drury as Tony Mas
tano was also good. Mr.. Mansfield did
all that could be desired with the part
of DR.. Penlon. Elizabeth Lea as Bonita
was charming; Miss Alice Chandler as
| the colonel's wife, Chas. Mason as Col.
| BCnham. and Miss Randell We're also
good in their respective roles Too
much praise cannot be given Kirke
La. Shelle for the excellent performance
given by this organization, and all who
do not witness the performances OF
| Arizona will miss a dramatic treat
| that it isNrarely indeed their good for
tune to have at hand for their en-
| joyment

Louis in 1904.
While a great deal of work has
been done and arrangements have
been made with most of the lead
ing mines. agriculturalists and
others, for exhibits along their
several lines, yet it is more than
probable that there are numerous
interesting relics. mineral and
agricultural products, which will
be overlooked unless those pos
sessing or having knowledge of
the same, voluntarily communi-
cate with this Commission.
Therefore, we invite anyone
Who thinks he has anything wor-

communicate at an early date with
Commissioner-in-Chi c. B. Rich
ardson, Cheyenne, Wyo., explain
ing clearly what the article is and
the conditions under which it

We trust that every citizen of

of Weston county learning of the
depreciation, gathered "A posse and
gave chase, following them for
three days. When overtaken on
Saturday evening, at the Beaver
Dams, on Lightning creek. in
Converse county, the Indians re-
fused to surrender and opened
fire on the sheriff and his men, in
stantly killing Deputy Sheriff
Falkenburg. The first shot was
fired by Eagle Feather. The fight
then became general and Sheriff
Miller was shot through the hips.
from which wound he died shortly
afterward. Four Indians, incIu3.
ing chiefs Eagle Feather and
Black Kettle, were killed and ten
wounded. one Of whom "A squaw,
Pretty Peacock, will also die. as
well as three of the bucks.
The posse captured a number
of horses and the wounded In
dians, the rest fleeing for the Da-
kota line to get back on the reser-
walton. The outlaws were taken
to Lusk, Wyoming. Strenuous
efforts are being made to capture
the rest of the Indians before they
can reach the reservation. There
were twenty-five bucks and thirty
six squaws, besides a number of
children in the baud.
The bodies of Sheriff Miller and
Deputy Sheriff Falkenburg were
taken to Newcastle for interment.

All Halloween 7.

Halloween is over and N peo-
pie breathe easy once more. One
of the mysteries of the present
age is, why property is safe from
wanton and malicious destruction
for 1854 days-and nights-in the
year. while on the Booth day "A
wave of lawlessness seems to sweep
over the land and the youth and
small boy sally forth to wreak
destruction on everytL ing they can
lay their hands on.
On Saturday evening some of
the boys of Saratoga had made
great preparation to have a lot of
.'fun," as they called it, and at
least two of them were ON hands
with their horses and ropes, pre-
pared to make it lively wherever
they found an opening. But
Mayor McAnally and Night Pc.
liceman Brown had also been
busy, and there was a slight hitch
in the fun making. A number OF
special constables had been sworn
in and when the youngsters APP
peared in the neighborhood of the
school building, bent on making
things around there look like SO
cents, both horses were captured,
and one of the riders. The hors-
es we're put in II livery stable and
the boy spent the night in the
cooler.
This arrest cooled the ardor OF
the rest of the fun making" crowd
and though they were in evidence

THE TOM HORN CASE.
Governor chatterton Being Flooded With
Appeals, Affdavits, ETC., to stay the
Execution Of the Noted Criminal.

The center of interest in this
state Just now is the office of Gov
ernor Chatterton. The attorneys
for Tom Horn have made one last
desperate effort to save the neck
of that individual from the hing
mans moose, and ii is up to Gov
ernor Chatterton now to say whc-
Their Tom Horn shall hang on the
2lst of this month";. or have the
execution deferred until the mass
of testimony and afidavits are pass
ed upon by competent authority.
Since the decision of the Su-
preme Court, denying the appeal
for a new trial in the Horn case,
his attorneys have been very ac.
tive in working up testimony to
show that some one other than
Horn killed Willie on that July
dav. in 1901. On Saturday last
Attorney Burke presented to Gov
ernor Chatterton a number of
affidavits which tend to show that
Horn was innocent of the blood
of Willie Nickel and that one
Victor Miller, a mere boy, was the
murder. This is very clearly
set forth by the voluminous attida-
Wit of Glendoline Kimmel, the
woman whom every M claims is
a sweetheart of Horns. She sets
forth in specific terms, conversa-
tions she claims to have overheard
between James Miller and Victor
Miller, discriminating the latter.
There are other affidavits, some
corroborating this view of the
case and others which are to the
effect that Joe LIE Fors knew of
Victor Miller's guilt and had made
statements to that effect and that
he had been bought off. Today
the evidence in rebuttal will be
presented to the Governor and he
will go over the whole business
and decide the question.
LATER-Miss Kimmel was ar
rested in Cheyenne, Tuesday af-
ternoon, on a warrant issued out
of Justice Trump's Office, signed
by prosecuting attorney Stoll,
charging her with perjury. Miss
Kimmel gave bond in the sum of
$1,000 for her appearance in court
Saturday morning, at which time
it is expected that Attorney Stoll
will be on hand to ask her some
very pertinent and interesting
questions.

The Modern woodmen Entertain.

The entertainment given in
Masonic hall last Friday night
by the Modern Woodmen, was
well attended and very much en-
joyed by all present. Some IS or
SO guests did honor to the occa-
sion, spending the evening in
card playing, music, etc. A very
appetising lunch was served at IL
O'Clock and the company enjoyed
the attention of their hosts, who
did all in their power to make the
evening pleasant. The company
took their leave about midnight.
This makes two most enjoyable
evenings spent in the Masonic
hall, the other occasion being
the very delightful progressive
might've party given by the
members of the X. p. Lodge on
the evening of the 18th of Octo-
Der, when "A very large number of
Saratoga people enjoyed the hos
pitality of that Organization.
These evenings are certainly of
much benefit i'll bringing the peo-
pie of the town together in a So
