ADJUSTMENTS.
At the Jefferson.

Henry V. Esmond's "Imprudence' was presented at the Jefferson theatre last night by William Faversham and his excellent company. From beginning to end there was not a hitch in the finished performance of any individual actor, and the audience was delighted. MT Faver- sham was handsome and pleasing as Jack Frere, while he was ably supported by Miss Mable Roebuck as Wilhelmina Marr The lovemaklng of these two combined pathos and comedy in a most delightful manner Miss Roebuck was well suited to her part and played 1t capitally. Her winsome personality made her a favorite with the audience Jeffreys Lewis as Mrs. Jim Greaves, made a great hit and won rounds of applause She Is decided ly the best woman comedian that has been seen here in some time. Her comi- cal portrayal of the injured spouse was extremely laughable.
 Amelia Gardner as Lady Duncan, the adventures, was very good. She succeed ed in giving a finished portrayal of woman of the world. Her changes from cajolery to defiance were realistic and na- tural. Charles Marbury was Sir Harry Harmon, a testy nobleman, who uinish- ed his share of the laughs. Wallace Erksine as Jim Greaves was equal in skill to the other leading members of a well balanced company
 At the end of the second act. which was rich in good acting and in which Miss Jeffreys Lewis displayed her talent in no uncertain way, the principals were given an ovation. MT. Faversham was forced to respond to repeated curtain calls and the applause was not silenced until the orchestra began playing A curtain talk was evidently wanted but MT. Faversham contented himself with merely lowing his thanks.
 'Imprudence" is we'll constructed play. The comedy element prevails, al- though opportunity is given for display of the deeper emotions. In both MT. Faversham was superb.

Granite Celebration.

I'll Reno, Okla, April 25.-
There was a red hot time in
Granite last Wednesday. The
long talked of Granite works
commenced operations. The
Granite brass band, twenty-four
pieces, played all the patriotic
airs of the day. Judge J. w.
Ryder and other distinguished
speakers addressed an audience
of two thousand people. a BAN
quet was served that was equal
to anything that has been pro-
duced since Greer became n
county,
President Jay Harding of the
new granite company, and Mes
srs. f. II, Glimpse, J. II. Jenness
and j. ID. Blake, Abiiine stock
holders in the concern, were
there ana at : O'Clock p. m.
started the machinery going.
Everything worked to perfection.
The quality of granite being got
ten out is of very superior
grade and can be obtained at
about one-fifth of the cost Of
Vermont stone.
From what can be learned a
very large part of the new gov
ernment building to be erected
in Guthrie and the new court
house at Mangum will be con-
structed largely of the granite
from Headquarters mountain.

Encourage immigration.

The Rock Island System is
making an effort to encourage
immigration into Oklahoma, as
well as to interest capitalists and
business and professional men in
the territory.
In this undertaking it should
have the active cooperation OF
every resident, for this reason /:
the more people there are in Ok
lahoma, the higher the price of
land will be and the greater will
be the prosperity of every man
and woman in it.
The plan which will be followed
is to publish, in Eastern farm
journals, letters from farmers
and business men who have made
money by coming to Oklahoma.
Letters should go into details to
the extent Of stating how much
money the writer had when he
arrived, what he did, what suc-
cess he has met with and what he
thinks of that portion of Okla
homa in which he is located. In
