ducing managers, and the prom
Use for the coming season Is
- surely more encouraging in point
Of actual undertakings than any for
number OF years. Almost all OF the stars
are to be fitted out with new plays, and
some new stars are to be injected into the
armament 80 that the theaters Of the
country will offer at the outset a more eN-
tenslve field for choice than in a long
time. One thing is noticeable. and that is
that the new plays show little, II any In
clination on part Of the authors TO assail
the questions with which the public Is
busying itself at present. The efrort Of
Charles Klein to blaze a path for the dis
cussicn OF these topics on the stage has not
as yet brought out the host of followers
that might have been expected. and the
new plays for the most part will deal with
themes more OF less haclSncyed, but each
capable in some way Of amusing, or ~ least
divertinE. The most prominent feature 50
far is the threatened return TO farce COM
coy. In New York the spring productions
were all Of this light and inconseduental
stun and most Of II was received with
an enthusiasm that seems TO Justify the
ma managerial acumen that undertook the
venture. The demand for musical comedy
has waned somewhat in the metropolis,
although II is far from being dead, and
the coming season will see some Of the
well known faces and figures going through
the same old stunts under new names The
farce comedy field, though, bids fair to
produce some new funmakers, although II
doesn't seem likely that any new methods
| will be sprung on the public. This was
indicated by the appearance Of Nat Good

some very clever carioatures in Il; the
! three artists being taken almost alive from

the sort Of thing that he has been doing for
10, these many years. And plain trust
requires the statement that he is doing II
nowadays as II he were a bit weary OF
always being himself. II is too bad that
his talents cannot be given a rational out
let, and that he cannot be allowed TO hide
| the identity Of Nat Goodwin in a character
worthy OF his mettle. But THE Genius
is the type of comedy to which the man.

That the Hon. Herschel NJ. Hogg.
scents the drifts of public sentiment
from lfar,i is evidenced by the follow
ing contained in Arthur Johnson 8
Washington letter to the News. rhe
Sentinel has been predicting that Ir.
Hogg was not fond of work and Mr..
Johnson simply places the matter
more iully before the people of the

Mr.. Hogg was a boy.
Just note particularly what Mr..
Johnson has to say:

Colorado, Representatives Brooks,
Bonynge and Hogg, are saying little

the three, it is safe to predict here
that Hogg will not be a member of
the SiXtieth congress. The member
from the Second district is tired of
the game. and will not allow his name
to be put up again. even If the senti-
ment among his henchmen is so over
whelming as he predicts to himself
it will be.
Mr.. Hogg is willy politician, and
when he sees storm upon the horiz-
on he is frank enough to call it a
storm instead of a cloud. 1t is safe
to bet that he sees plenty of hurri-
canes for the next congressional can

stand by until 1t is over. Were 1t
otherwise, we would probably man
age to smooth the aversion he now
appears to hold for job which costs
man twice as much money as he
draws as salary. Too much work of
the messenger boy sort, and the neces-

Every blade of grass grown in this
city represents so much labor. You
cannot expect to raise a lawn with
out putting forth some personal labor
yourselves. Back east lawn grows
itself, but in this country the most
CAREFUL and painstaking effort must
be put forth to secure a stand of
grass. But the compensation comes
In the enjoyment of same. We be-
lieve that a patch of fine grass in this
country is appreciated more than any
other place, simply because such ef-
fort must be made to secure it. We
generally have to pay for what we
get anyway. so the labor that is ex-
pended to secure a fine grass plot. is
no more than we would put forth in
some other direction.

TOO many public officers measure
their obligations to the public upon
a personal basis. They are not stir
red to see the law enforced, save
when the disregard of the law effects
their business or them personally.
They cannot rise to that condition
where they can look upon the obsery-
ance of the law. as 1t affects the whole
people. They are rarely disturbed
when laxity in the observance of the
law noes not effect their own personal
rights. When these are in the least
abridged. they then become wrathy
against the public, To be a we'll
balanced public officer an individual
must regard the whole condition as IL
AFFECTS community. and not part
as II may affect him.

II was some very distinguished
prelate, perhaps Bishop Potter and
wife. who recently returned from
Europe and when asked of their trip
made the following statement that,
There was no love lost between
England and America" At that
time we had intended to remember
who It was that made the statement,
because we were surprised at II, com
ing from such an individual. Ever
since reading II. we have wondered
several times whether Il was a matter
of chagrin, because of lack of atten-
tion paid to this distinguished pre-
late or whether he really did mean
that there is little between the two
countries in common. II is very
easy to deceive ourselves of a gen
eral feeling when we are individually
slighted, and in this case more par
ticularly than any other. we detected
the note of personal chagrin, more
than the judgment of a people from a
great man.

Il is singularly strange that we
have so few young men that have
any desire for sport. There are few
towns in the country the size of Gran |
junction that cannot support a bali
club. Sometimes two or three. but
here we cannot rise to the dignity of
one. A half dozen or more wears
ago We had good local team, but
never since that time. The boy of
today, from which material should
be drawn for a good team. is pre-.
occupied in other matters. He might
desire TO play, II the proper amount
OF enthusiasm was displayed but he
does not seem to take the initiative
upon himself. In a country, where
there is so little sport, II would seem
that u desperate effort would be nut
forth TO organize a first class ball
team. We have time and time again
endeavored to enthuse upon the mat
ter. hut we have. contrary to our gen
eral disposition almost given up in
disgust of seeing such team in the
field.

WOMAN Thrown FROM HORSE

A little sorrel horse belonging to
Barton & Platt and ridden by a
woman. bolted on Main street last
evening about seven O'Clock and
threw its rider near the corner of
Fourth and Main street. The sorrel
horses owned by the same parties
have been ridden quite frequently
of late by two women in blue riding
habits who seemed to have no trouble
in handling the horses. Last even
ing they were riding together as was
their custom and were coming down
Second street toward Main at an easy
canter. When they reached Main
street they turned east and immed-
lately one of the horses bolted and
the two horses went down Main street
at terrific pace, attracting consider
able attention from passersby on the
the street.
When they were nearing Fourth
street 1t became evident to every one
watching the performance that one
of the horses was running away and
a couple of men ran out from the
sidewalk to stop the horse. The horse
took fright at the men and jumped
to one side throwing the rider to the
ground with great force.
The woman was dazed for an in
slant and was assisted to seat. She
protested that she wns not hurt and
would be all right in minute and
a carriage was called which took
her home.
