Blanche Walsh in Resurrection"

Blanche Walsh in "Resurrection."
No more marvellous illusion it is
said, has been given by any artist of
the stage than that presented by
Blanche Walsh as Maslova in "Resur-
rection," which our playgoers will have
opportunity Of seeing at the Walla
Walla theatre on the evening of March
%. There is no more beautiful woman
than Blanche Walsh on the American
Stage, yet in the delinetion of this role
she deliberately sacrifices all of the
charms of nature to the requirements
of art This becomes necessary to
show what ten years of degradation
will do for woman. In the first act
she is the beautiful young innocent
Katusha, happy in the love Of her
soldier prince, and ten years later in
the prison scene she presents the pic
ture of a woman prematurely aged,
sunk and crushed by sin. 1t is the
study of Il WOman'S soul and in this
scene where her betrayer, conscience
stricken. comes to her assistance she
turns upon him, it is said, with such
revengeful passion and ferocity as to
held her audience spellbound. From
all the volume of praise that has been
devoted To Miss NEaISb'c porfo,p,o,co
by the New York critics. local play
goers have reason to anticipate in her
coming appearance one of the most
artistic treats they have had in many
seasons. The play will be presented
with brilliant company and with the
complete scenic production as seen
during its four months run at the
Victoria theatre, New York.

Among the illustrations are many re-

WIFE WILL LEAVE PARAMOUR
Mrs. Addie Downs to Return to Home
at Winlock.

SPOKANE, March 21.-Mrs. Addie
Downs, wife of the Winlock preacher,
who eloped with Carl Alvord and was
caught in Spokane has returned home.
Her attitude Saturday was considera-
bly, changed from what it had been,
and it now seems certain that Rev. Mr..
Downs and his truant wife will have a
reconciliation.
For the sake of the children and of
all, my wife is going back home" said
Rev. Mr. Downs.
She said Saturday she would re-
turn, and we will forget the past The
people at Winlock do not blame her so
much as they do Alvord. l believe my
wife was drugged, as she has always
been such a good woman that she
would not do anything like this.
Il am told that Alvord gave candy
to some members of the choir out of
one pocket, and then took candy out of
a different pocket and gave it to my
wife. Yes, I believe she was drugged
| think she will be all right when she
gets away from Alvord. He has a
strong influence over her.
Constable Kelly said: Mrs Downs
will return to Winlock with me. She is
somewhat reconciled and will return
to her home without the necessity Of
getting a warrant. l believe that after
she gets away from Alvord she will be
all right again. Yes, there are stories
that she was drugged by Alvord, but l
have no proof of this and am not pay
ing much attention to it. I have
handled this case myself and Alvord
will be prosecuted to the fullest ex-
tent of the law. do not believe people
will try any demonstrations against
Alvord.
When I left there I was warned
not to bring him back, but 1 told the
people that 1 would shoot the first one
who attempted to create any disturb
ance. The most they would do would
be TO tar and feather him, but they
won't do this while 1 have him. But
he will certainly be prosecuted"
Alvord left his wife, who was a bride
of just a year, and was about to be
mother. 1t now seems practically pos
tive that Alvord is the blacksmith who

BAPTIST COLLEGE MIDDLE.

The visit of the members OF
the Baptist State board of edu
cation, Messrs. Carroll and
Gambrell, in the opinion of the
News, has not tended to make
the Canyon City Baptist College
question any better than it was
prior to their coming. AS pre-
viously stated by this paper, the
determination of the whole mat.
ter lays strictly with the Palo
Duro Association aud it alone.
If, however, it should turn out
as these gentlemen say, that
Canadian, Goodnight and every,
other place that wants to, can
have a Baptist Academy then
Canyon City is far better of
without this much coveted Col
lege. A College is something
of an elephant at best and in
this sparsely settled country
with an academy here and there
of the same denomination, it
could not help but be positive
failure.
Now, this is not a matter of
"sour grapes" as some pretend
ed friends may insinuate, but a
matter of business and with

comes the fire boys and the work

altogether too real.
And then there is the "North

host of other features of this
justly celebrated "Pike" which
are too numerous to mention
here. All of them visited by
this writer were worth the
money required for entrance
and especially so to us western
folks who are denied 'tEe
sights common in the great
centres OF population.
Evening and night are the best
times to take in the Pike, with
odds in favor of the latter, for
it is then that the scenery, lit
up with its myriadS Of electric
balls is at Its best. At both

all apparently in an excellent
