place on the rifle range in Grape Greek
canon last Saturday. The shooting
was under the regulations governing
rife practice in the United States

participants in view Of the fact that
the Springfield rifles used were in poor

the storm passes. Soon they are heard
singing. The storm accompanied by
thunder and lightning continues and
the strange, weird gnomes appear in
the darkness in their wild pantomime.
After the storm ceases the "Recluse"
comes from his cave and sings in the
moonlight: "Ah, TO me are memories

A Good Class Play.

II any uncertainty existed in the
community that the public was not
interested in the achievements and
triumphs of the Canon City high school
it must have been dispelled by the
large and enthusiastic gathering Of
people Of all classes which assembled
at the opera house last Tuesday night
to witness the annual class play.

dramatization from Ouida's novel OF

four acts, and possesses great oppor-

talent. The cast includes some fifteen
persons; several Of the roles calling for
skilful acting for their proper presenta-
tion, and that the members of the
class were able to portray the various
characters SO well is complimentary to
the training it had received from Miss
Allen, the instructoress, and to the
painstaking and intelligent attention
given to the rehearsals by the men,
bers Of the company.
The play deals with the events of a
regiment Of French soldiers acting as
garrison at a military post on the
Algerian frontier; its duties being to
prevent predatory incursions into the
country by the Arab tribes occupying
the desert. The central figure in the
drama is BERTHE Cecil, scion OF a noble
English family, who leaves his home
and patrimony on account OF forgery
which has been committed in his name
and enlists as private in the French
army. He distinguishes himself for
bravery in the service, but incurs the
