LAND VALUATIONS HIGH.
Building of Mr.. Bamberbcr's Line To
Ogden Canyon Hindcred

Ogden, Nov. 23.--Simon Bamberger
may not build his railroad to the
mouth OF Ogden canyon as was his in
tention ever since he decided to invade
Ogden with his line. Although he has
purchased land already for about one
mile Of the two and q half miles be-
tween Washington avenue and the cam
yon, the proposition may be abandoned
and the reason given for this action Is
that the owners of the balance of the
land along the proposed route are en-
deavorng to hold Mr. Bamberger up
for enormous prices for their land, be-
llevlng evidently that he must have it
and would pay the prices asked which
IN most instances is considerably high
er than the real value OF the property.
He states that some OF the land own
ers have even asked as high as $500
per acre for river bottom land not
worth 800 per acre

.''The Truth Tellers" at the Columbia
Theater September 25, There are so many
animals utilized in this production that
Mr.. Berger is in something Of a quandary
to know how TO have them taken care
Of. The union rules permit the EMPLOY
ment of only one property man. and
one stage carpenter with each company.
and these men can only look after the
furniture, props. and scenery Live stock
does not come under the heading of
properties. anyhow.
= 1t would be a burdensome expense to
employ three or four stable hands to
look after the live stock OF this produc-
tion. and so Mr.. Berger has hit upon
the happy expedient of engaging four o.
five actors who can also double in the
roles of stable companions. Actors who
are especially qualified for these Iabors
will be cast for small parts in the
Truth Teners." and when they are not
on the stage acting will be expected to
look after the comfort of the five Shet-
land ponies. the two sheep. the two pigs,
the monkey, and the other live stock
utilized IN the new play.

The Eternal City" a supporting COM
pany that aroused the admiration and
wonder of the theater-going public, but
the cast for The ProdigaI Son sur
passes them both. Here there is no
star-no one part, indeed, that can be
called the leading part. Instead there
are half Il dozen roles, each one as
prominent as the other. and each
played by an actor or actress who has
headed his or her own compari in the
past.
For instance there Is Edward Nor
gan, the creator of the role of John
Storm In The Christian" and of David
Rosst IN The Eternal City," Aubrey
Boucicault. Marie Wainwright, w. H
Walker. whose name is particularly IA
miliar to Washington playgoers by
reason of the excellent work she did in
the stock company at the Columbia
Theater this summer; Drina De Wolfe,
Ida Waterman. George c. Boniface, sr..
and Henry Bergman. And these are
only the principals. There are at
least dozen other speaking charac-
ters and chorus people. and supernum-
eraries sufficient to bring the list well
over the one hundred mark.
