1T WAS A GOOD PLAY.

only very few seats in the Audi
torium theatre were vacant last might
when the curtain was raised for the
nrst act of AT the Old Cross Roads "
IL was splendid audience. the larg-
est that has gathered at the Auditor
ium this season.
The performance was equally as
splendid, being very satisfactory TO
the crowd and taking it all around
the production was the best that has
been seen at the Auditorium this
season.
The company presenting this in
teresting comedy-drama is a good
one, consisting mainly of very cana
bic people. James NJ. Brophy. the
well known actor, heads the COMPANY
and takes the role of Doc Kerr. n
gambler on the Mississippi. The
character is a delightful one and Mr..
Brophy certainly handled it in the
most satisfactory manner. Marie
Clifton who played the leading char
acter, as Parepa, the octoroon. did
creditable work. She is a very clever
emotional actress. The part is neces-
sarily "a very difficult one but 1t was
most eapably handled. Leila Shaw
as Annabel Thornton, the daughter of
Parepa, is handsome woman but We
did not think much of her work last
night. Mayor Ferror of THE old
line" was one of the best characters
of the play. Herbert Prior. admir-
ably delineated this character, max
ing typical major. Leslie Moros-
co as Tom Smith the tramp and fake
count was all right. lnez Bayard as
Old Aunt Liza. "One of the Thorn
tons was great She was a typical
old southern nanny. Her makeup
was true to life and her movements
her talk and her facial expression
were most perfect. She kept tina aud
ionce in a continual roar. William
Brummel as Dayton Thornton, the
heartless husband and unnatural
father, was only fairly good while
Oscar Briggs as Tom Martin. Anna
bells lover was perhaps the weakest
member of the cast. Alice Clifton as
Little Missip. the negro boy, was very
good. Annie Mortimer did not make
a very good Madge Thornton.
The play is one of that class that
depicts an improbable story of
life. yet it is strong in plot
and many very interesting situations.
The story is well portrayed and the
hve acts are nicely connected and
staged. The Southern ac-
cent was distressingly handled by
some of the company.
The setting for the third act show
ing THE Old Cross Roads" was a
beautiful scene, one of the prettiest
stage pictures seen in the city In a
long time.
Everybody present was pleased
with the clever performance.

BEET GROWERS ORGANIZE.

Sixteen thousand sugar beet
growers in Colorado are reported to
be forming an alliance for the pur-
pose of fighting the sugar trust, says
the Denver Post. The movement has
started in the southern section of
the state, and It is predicted that it
will take in all persons in the indus
try.
The object of the alliance will be
to maintain the price of sugar beets.
The farmers insist on receiving SIS.
per ton and say that a general strike
in all parts of the state will be call
ed and not a sugar beet plant will
be operated unless they get a fair
price for the beets
The sole purpose of the cry of the
Great Western Sugar company. in
which c. S. Morey and Charles Boet-
tcher representing II. o. Havemeyer
for high tariff on the sugar of the
Philippine islands and Cuba is said
to be for the purpose of fighting the
Colorado producers so the trust may
lower the price of sugar beets from
So to 81 per ton. The assistance OF
Aaron Cove and a United States sem
ator were secured by the sugar trust
to help in the movement.
The sugar beet producers say they
are not blind to the cry of the com
pany, and will form a trust of their
own for mutual protection. The
farmers, 1t is said. have in their
power to check the entertainments Of
the sugar trust if they form an or
ganization and will act as unit.
