"llncIe JOSH Is COMING.

The attraction at the Thatcher
opera house on Thursday evening will
be the ever reliable "Uncle Josh Per-
kins", undoubtedly the most success
full rural comedy drama that has been
produced in years. 1t serves dis
tinct and highly commendable pur-
pose, for IL teaches in the cleverest
and most entertaining way imagin-
able and in thoroughly up TO date
manner the truth of the old saying,
that "love will find way" The
chief interest in the piece centers in
the love Of Uncle Josh for his young
daughter Nan. The entire cast Of
"Uncle Josh Perkins" has been selec-
ted from among the best known,
most widely experienced and NEST
conscientious actors and actresses of
the American stage. The piece is
most deliberately staged, and equipped
with beautiful scenery. The engage
mcnt is for one night only.

ing the piece are some who can bring
out the fun to the best advantage.
On Monday night neither girl was
thoroughly onto her lines, but that
didn't cut any ice so far as the fun
went. Mack is whole show within
himself and as Hastings Hussel is a
hustler out of sight. He creates more
fun in minute than the average
vaudeville man can in a week. The
audience laughed and applauded from
the time he appeared on the stage

If the railroad company would
place phone in the office of the
station at Cache Junction so that in.
quirers here could learn at what time
the early morning train going to Pres
ton left that station it would prove u
convenience beyond measure. The
uncertainty Of the arrival and depart
ure OF that train from the Logan
station Is so such that travellers are
frequently annoyed almost beyond
endurance. The train comes In here
at almost any old hour and usually
from one to three hours late, but the
public is unable to ascertain the facts
beforehand, and must be at the sta
| tion at $40, the time due here, or run
the risk Of missing the train. This
is abominable. II is said that there
has been congestion Of freight
traffic that makes this condition un.
avoidable, but the company could al
least relieve the situation by putting
in the phone as suggested. Central

formation and give it TO inquirers.

Running
Risks.

Despite the prevalence of rob-

also their lives. How much safer

people were TO bring their money
to the bank.
