MISS ANGLIN'S
MRS. TANQUERAY
NOT OF BEST

The last new play of her season was
presented last night by Miss Margaret
Anglin in THE Second Mrs. Tanque-
ray in which the popular actress ap-
peared for the first time here. The
play will be given again tonight and
at the matinee tomorrow, THE Mar
riage of Kitty to be the bill for to-
morrow evening, the last of Miss
Anglin's very successful engagement
at the California.
Interesting in everything as she is
here, Miss Anglin is yet not at her
best as Paula Tanqueray. Mrs. Camp
bell she follows in the part, also Rose
Coghlan, both of whom create an es-
sentially stronger illusion. Very clever
is certain hard glitter that Miss
Anglin gives to the Woman--the vivid
portrayal of her vulgarity that In
heres in her very fiber In the emo
tional climaxes, too, it would not be
Miss Anglin were she not sufficient
But there is a lack of depth, round
ness, conviction in the conception as
whole that places it much outside
of the actress more important ef-
forts. 1t is still an interesting char
acteriZation.
Frank Worthing's Aubrey Tanque-
ray is a gentleman1y and convincing
sort of person, and the Gayle Drummle
of Arthur r. Lawrence clever and
taking impersonation. The role of Mrs.
Cortelyou, of course, fell to Mrs
Thomas Whiffen, and was capftally
handled and prettily dressed by that
accomplished lady. Miss GwendoIyn
Valentine was the Eilean, rather an
gular than girlish; Edward Emery
was the Sir George Orreyed and Miss
Edith Cartwright Lady Orreyed.
The piece is beautifully staged.

SAYS HE PAID
FOR IMMUNITY
B. Mozetti, a Dairyman, Tells
Supervisors Why His Cows
We're Permitted to Roam
SAYS COIN is EXACTED
Testifies He Paid SIS Each
Week to Deputies Not
to Impound His Cattle

The Supervisors Police Committee
yesterday listened to evidence relative
to the petition of B. Mozetti, dairy
man of 1895 Berlin street, for the re-
funding to him of $315 which he was
compelled to pay to the poundmen for
the release of 105 cows which had been
impounded. Mozetti stated that the
COWS had got out of the corral through
no fault of his, and some one unknown
to him had broken down the fence and
permitted the animals to escape. G..
Berizinni, one of Mozetti's mixers, tes-
titled that he had heard NJ. Edwards,
a deputy poundman, tell his employer
that if he lEdwards) were paid SIS per
week MoZetti would be permitted to
let his cows run at large to feed on
grass and would be notified when the
poundmen proposed to round UP the
herd. Several of Mozetti's employees
testified that the fence was in good
condition on the night previous to the
morning when the cows broke out. B.
Mozetti corroborated Berizinni's evil
dence as TO the offer made by Ed
wards.
Il paid Edwards SIS a week for three
weeks" said Mozetti. but / stopped
paying him any money when / saw
that it was of no use, as people kept
complaining that my cows were at
large"
Supervisors Eggers and Rea engaged
in a verbal alteration over some ques-
tions that were put to Mozetti by the
former, who wanted Mozetti to realize
the gravity of his charge against Ed
wards. Mozetti then testified that he
had on April 13 also paid SIS to A. l..
Unger, superintendent of the pound,
who had asked him how much it would
be worth to him to have his cows roam
at large. Two weeks after Unger i'm
pounded his COWS, and when Mozetti
complained Unger told him he was not
a man, as he had not lived up to his
agreement to pay for immunity.
c. H Holbrook, secretary of the So
, ciety for the Prevention of Cruelty to
Animals, which conducts the pound,
sought unsuccessfully to have Mozetti
admit that when he had offered money
to Unger the latter had ordered him
out of his office.
The inquiry went over until Tuesday
at .. m, when the accused men will
put in their defense.

During one Of the summer days,

1 found Poison indisposed, he hav-
ing been kicked by a stray horse
which the hired man had found
leaning against the pasture fence.
The hired man, in his usual crafty
manner, said that a man had given
the horse to him and Poison de-
clared that the man was beat at that
and ordered him to take the horse
off the place before it died, and Poi
stepped up behind the horse and
hit him with a broom handle to
show the hired man that the horse
had ceased to take notice. This
was where Poison made a mistake;
the horse seemed to have a storage
battery hid away inside and the
broom handle started the works.

there was a calf in the we'll ahead

With IGNITE!

The only workable beds of lig-
mite east of the center of the state
are in the Turtle Mountains and
at the southern bend of the Chey-
enne river, about Is miles south
east of Valley City. The region in
which discoveries Of Ignite might
reasonably be expected may be
roughly bounded on the east by
a line beginning at the northern
boundary Of the state, 80 miles east
of the Minneapolis, st. Paul S. S.
Marie .Ry., and extending southeast
to Harvey, thence south through
Steele to the southern boundary.
On the north, south and west, the
Ignite continues beyond the boun-
diaries of the state. This region
was of very great extent, having an
area equal to half that Of the state
of Ohio. The extent and thickness
of these Ignite beds are discussed
in detail by MI. Wilder. The lig-
mite output of the state amounted
in 1902 to 3l5,8OO short tons, val
ued at $428,27O.
Judged by ordinary standards,
the Ignite is very inferior. Its
fuel value has been determined an
alytically, and the results of the
chemical, calorimetric, and practi-
cal evaporative tests by which it
has been examined are described
by Mr.. Wilder. The subject of
pumping water by means of power
plants supplied with Ignite fuel is
discussed by Mr.. Charles Mcgowan.
MI. Wilder says in conclusion
that opportunities to reclaim arid
lands appear to exist in the larger
flats on the Missouri river. In
choosing fats where reclamation by
pumping maybe tried under favor
able conditions, a number Of factors
must be kept in mind. Nearness
to a railroad and a market are as
essential as an abundance of cheap
fuel and good land. An active in
terest ON the part of resident own
ers is necessary where the land is
already in part or wholly private
property.

The following from the report of
the United States Geological Sur
vey regarding the North Dakota
Ignite will prove of interest
Under the direction of MI. N. FL.
barton of the United States Geo.
logical Survey, who is making an
investigation Of the underground
water resources of western United
States, Mr.. F. A. Wilder has re-
Gently examined the Ignite depos-
it's of North Dakota, and studied
their relation to irrigation.
The areas most favorably situated
for irrigation in North Dakota are
the broad terraces along the Mis-
souri, and its tributaries. These
streams are deeply intrenched, and
it does not seem possible by means
now available to raise water from
them a vertical distance of $50 to
400 feet over the bluffs that rather
sharply bound the broad valleys.
The fertile terraces in the valleys
of the streams range from Is to 100
feet in elevation above water level.
As there is an abundance of Ignite
along these streams, it has seemed
desirable to consider the POSSIBLE
ity of ~irrigating the 100000 acres
included in the terraces by pump
ing water directly from the rivers,
using Ignite as fuel. To this end
the Ignite area has been studied
and the Ignite beds investigated.
Practical tests have been made to
ascertain, at least in a rough way,
the cost of irrigating river flats
which are less than 100 feet above
the streams. The Missouri and its
tributaries in North Dakota have
been followed, and the extent and
quality of the Ignite near them
have been noted.
If only a small fraction of the
western part of the state is under
irrigation. the productiveness Of
the region will be greatly increased.
With a few acres which can be
watered at will, and abundant range
