'Happyland,' which is being pre-
setlted by De Wolf Hopper at the Ly-
rio, Is said TO have broken the run of
slap stick musical farce which for so
long has been aflicting New York.
The piece in question is the work of
Frederic Ranken and Reginald De
Koven, and IL seems to be conspicu-
ros for its absolute freedom from
horse play and jingles. 1t contains Il
legitimate story from which is en-
vOlved all the comedy of the piece,
while its score is put down as being
most musicihnly. At the premiere of
the work. on October second, was
present a typical Broadway audience,
which, waiting in vain for coon songs
received the entertainment somewhat
coldly. Consequently, it was freely
0pined in the lobbics that the Shr-
berts. under whose management
"Happyland' is offered, had out
stepped themselves and gone over
the heads of their patrons. The
newspapers of the following day.
however. were enthusiastic in their
praise of the piece and of the ambi-
ton which brought it forth. ct is
not .Happyland that is now on trial.
said The World. ut is the public. If
the production does not appeal to a
profitable popular taste. comic opera
is an impossible proposition" To
the surprise of almost every one con-
cerned, the public has responded with
avidity, and the present prophecy is
that Mr.. Hopper will enjoy as long a
Il at the Lyric as did Mr.. De An
gels in "Fantana." Thus has begun
the rcnaissance of comic opera in
AmeEica.

Mrs. A c. Beach.

Alice Catharine Lees was born in Edin-
burgh, Scotland, July 81, 1882, and was
married to Stephen Beach in Jersey
City, New Jersey, December %, 1858.
To them were born seven children, six
of whom survive, one dying in infancy.
The survivors were all present at the
funeral services which took place at the
residence east of Pleasanton. The chill
dren are Harriet N. King and Alice M.
Shivers of Kansas, Francis S. Beach of
Pleasanton, Elsie Estella Jetfries of
Davis City, Ivan S. Beach of Leon
and Stephenia l. Mitchell of Pleasanton.
O! these the first mentioned was born in
New York City, the three following in
Sullivan county, New York, the next in
Suffolk county, Long Island, and the last
in Christian county, Illinois.
The family came to Decatur county
about thirty years ago and with the ex-
ception of one or two short intervals
have all lived in it ever since. Mrs.
Beach was woman of strong personal
ity and decided character, direct in her
manner of speech, and pronounced in
her likes and dislikes. For time after
first coming to the vicinity of Pleasan-
ton she was associated with the NJ. E.
church, being regular and punctual in
her attendance at the services and rem
dering material as we'll as moral sup
port to it's interests. Later on she
entered actively into the work of the
Union Sunday school at Pleasanton and
manifested the same positive traits
there as elsewhere. For time she
was identified with the L. D. S. church,
and some years after severing her con-
nection with that body she served for a
term or two as president of the Mite
society, which materially helped to fin
ish and furnish the church building.
Upon the organization of the local
society of the Woman's Christian TEN.
perance Union she became its president
and continued in the office for several
years, promoting it's work in public
meetings and otherwise. At the time
of her death she was valued member
of the local organization Of the Royal

Neighbors, which body furnished the
pail bearers at the funeral in the per-
sons of Vena Edwards, Helen Leeper,
Isabel Snethen. Rose Estes, Maud Estes
and Bertha Miller, by whom the custom
airy deposit of evergreen was made at
the grave.
Up to the beginning of April she APP
peared to the public generally to be in
condition of vigorous health for one of
her age, but during that month the COM
munity was startled by the announce
ment of a council of physicians that she
was the subject of a form of cancer that
in all human probability would speedily
terminate her life. From this she had
S lifered severely, though uncomplain-
ugly, for years. During her last weeks
her excruciating sufferings were but
slightly relieved by the use of opiates.
However, the fortitude which was such
a striking element of her character
stood her in good stead down to the end.
She passed away in the morning of
June q, 1905, having attained the ripe
age Of ~ years, 10 months and 20 days.
The funeral arrangements were carried
out according to her expressed wishes,
being in charge Of Elder Campbell who
also delivered the address; the song
service was rendered by Emma Burch,
Vena Edwards, Jessie Campbell, William
Thorp and Chas. Thorp; the floral offer
ings were generous in quantity, beauti-
full in hue and tasteful in arrangement;
many carriages followed the hearse that
conveyed the body to its last resting
place in the Hamilton cemetery and
many people were at the grave who had
not gone to the house. After the cas-
ket was deposited in the earth an APP
propriate hymn was snng and prayer
by Elder Turpen concluded the service

AIDING Ex-PRIsoNERs.
Colorado Society Has Done Good Work
and Asks Contributions.

Denver.-The regular quartepfy
meeting of the Colorado Society for
the Friendless, was held at the Albany
hotel Tuesday night. w. E. Collett,
state superintendent of the society, re-
ported that he had travelled nearly
10000 miles during the first three
quarters of the year. made over fifty
public addresses, called on several
hundred business firms and collected
$500 to aid his work.
About seventy eX-prisoners have
been helped to obtain work and aided
in keeping at it. During July and Au-
gust Rev. Bernard l.. Rice of Grand
Junction visited numerous cities on
the western slope, organizing jail COM
mittees and securing financial assist
ance. The society has been particu-
larly successful in this owing to the
demand for labor.
The society has also arranged that
clothing may be sent to the temporary
home, 705 East Twenty-eighth avenue,
where it will be taken care of and
turned over to paroled prisoners and
those who have been released. The
Legislature of Colorado has never
made an arrangement for clothing,
transportation or expense money for
men coming out of the penitentiary
The society greatly desires public aid
in furnishing such help, and Warden
Cleghorn has arranged to have any
clothing sent in by the society altered
so it will fit released prisoners. Shoes,
underwear. socks. etc. are also well
coined at the institution.
Superin endent Collett will attend
the congress of the National Prison AS
sociation at Lincoln, Nebraska, the lat
ter part of this month.

crowd was in attendance the second
day of the Adams County Fair,
Wednesday. Large crowds came from
Denver on the regular and special
trains, as well as from the nearby
towns of Patteville, Fort Lupton and
Erie.
The tomato battle between teams
representing Brighton and Fort Lup
ton was the event of the day. The
Russians and Japanese were to have
been the contestants, but the manage.
ment was unable to secure them from
the sugar beet fields because of the
animosity between the two races, and
they would not consent to battle I'M.

The contestants were dressed in
white, stationed sixty feet apart, in two
rows, twelve on each side, and each
combatant supplied with ripe tomatoes
for ammunition.
The battle lasted for half an hour,
and was fast, and furious, the lines
breaking. charging and retreating
again and again. The conflict was

DURANGO RUBBER FACTORIES.
Preparing to Make Rubber From Colo
rado Rubber Plant.

Denver.-The Republicans Durango
correspondent says: The machinery
for the Dunbar rubber factory, three
carloads, is being put in place. The
plant is in the old Durango ore sam
ping works and consists of thirty ma
chimes. Their capacity will be about
twenty-six tons of rubber weed day.
The great ore bins are being filed with
the roofs and when the machinery
starts grinding there will be large
supply of the root on hand.
The process of extraction of this
plant is combination of mechanical
and chemical. The machinery was
made in Cleveland, Ohio. after plans
drawn by L. C. Dunbar, the head Of the
enterprise.
Joseph b. Hensley. manager OF the
Topeka company, who is putting In the
second factory. is buying and storing
all the roots that are offered. His ma
chinery has not arrived. but is ex-
pected at an early date. The process
used by this company is purely me-
chanical. The roots are put into large
grinding machines and pulverized. The
pulp is washed back and forth till the
rubber settles at the bottom and the
woody part is washed away.
One cent and a half pound Is paid
to the diggers. II the owners of the
Dunbar factory have no trouble In Sc
curing the amount of weed needed they
will increase the number of machines
SO that they will require about forty
tons of weed day.
At present the weed is gathered
mostly by Mexicans and boys, and
many of them make good wages. Nav
aho Indians are beginning to get inter
ested and the industry promises to be
godsend to the Indians, to whom few
avenues of labor are open.
