When last seen here in dramatic
production Frederick Warde did not
take the role of fun-maker or fool
and the statement that he did appear
here as such in very foolish play,
the production of which the noted
actor had never forgiven himself
for" must have been news to those
who read it and who saw Frederick
Warde on his last appearance at the
Park opera house on which time he
took the part of Matthias, a very ser
ious and dramatic character in the
magnificent production of "Salamm-
bo." a tragedy of ancient Carthage
There is certainly no trace of the fun
maker or fool in the strong character
of Matthias.

the proprietor of this paper interest
ed in that publication. The work was
done in Denver and we repudiate any
connection herewith in any manner
whatever, either financially. person
ally or otherwise. The publication
of the book was under control of the
two gentlemen entirely. whose names
appear as publishers and who We're
the sole beneficiaries financially from
its publication.

a laundry establishment at 419 Colo
RADIO avenue was given bad fright
and his place of business was badly
damaged last night as a result of the
