acting, costumes or stage effect
Everything combined to make il tnA
most nearly perfect theatrical pro.
duction ever given in Walla Wana.
Louis James has long been favorite
in Walla Walla but he. was perfection
last night. "Falstaff" is a character
Just suited to his talent. He has been
here before as "Caliban" in The TEN.
pest and as "Virginius," but he was
far better in "Falstaff' than in either
of the others.
No one who heard him last night
will deny him place in the very
front rank of Snakespearian actors
not only of today, but all times.
Norman Hackett, another actor dear
to Walla Wallans, was warmly re-
ceived last night. AS the jealous
husband, he is perhaps hardly as
strong as in the role of fervent lover.
but it cannot be gainsayed that he
made an excellent "Mr. Ford"
A large share of the perfect sue
cess of the play is in the fine work
of Aphie James and Charlotte Lam
bert. as Mrs. Ford and Mrs. Page"
the merry wives of Windsor.
These talented women completely
captivated their audience by their
clever pantOmine work. Both had
laugh so contagious that it compelled
sympathetic smile from everybody

SETTLES IN WALLA WALLA.

Preferring Walla Walla to Califor-
mia, G. A. Kelly, one of the best known
race horse men on the coast, has de-
cided to permanently reside in this
city and yesterday closed a deal for the
residence property of Harry Carnes,
in Newell street, near First.
The property consists of seven
room house and a large lot. The pur-
chase price was $4,000 and the deal
was made through FARMLAND & Brown
Mr.. Kelly is the owner of some fine
horses and at one time owned Anzel-
la, queen Of the trotting turf three
years ago sold later for $4,000. Be-
fore coming to Walla Walla Mr.. Kelly
was in charge of the Pleasanton train
ing track owned by Thomas Roman,
the Dayton horseman..

from the senator in a box, to the small
boy whose legs hung over the iron
railing Of "nigger heaven"
One of the hits Of the evening was
the bashful performances of Horace
Lyndon as "Mr. Slender" in his visit
full wooing of the pretty "Anne Page"
taken by Lillian Lancaster with spirit
and effect.
The rest Of the cast was also good.
No part was weak but all contributed
to the perfection which places the
whole beyond criticism.
The Merry Wives of Windsor" is
play which has only recently been
staged to any great extent. 1t has
been considered rather fiat for this
purpose but that it can be redeemed
by superb acting and made dramat-
ic, as we'll as a literary success, was
amply proved last night.
That wives can be merry and
honest too" is the theme of the roll
licking comedy and certainly the I'm
mortal bard has shown how helpless
even the worldly wise "Sir John Fall
staff" is in the hand Of the witty wives
of Windsor.
Never did a schemer contribute
more completely to his own undoing
than the INSCRIPTIONS knight does in
this play written at the benest OF
Queen Elizabeth to show what sort OF
lover "Falstaff' would be. He sue
ceeds in showing that a man like
"Falstaff" cannot play the lover with
out finding out what an ass I am.

that he has recovered from Klingsor,
the Magic Gardens and its habitants
that nave caused so much misery ana
sorrow, are maGe to disappear from
the face of the earth, and Parsifal, de-
termined to make himself worthy or
the glorious task of rescuing the
knights from their impending fate,
goes out into the world with that
sole object in view. We see him re-
turning later, after being chastened
and sorely tried, still with the Holy
Lance undefiled, and then, bringing joy
and relief to the suffering but devoted
band of Knights, restoring them to
the Grace of God by uncovering the
holy Grail" and letting them all
battle in its glorious effulgence and di-
vine power In all this action we are
led to see the mysterious workings of
divine providence that chooses its
own way to restore poor humanity to
its beneficent graces and good will,
not by corruption and the false reason
ings and logics of the evil minded and
wicked inclination within us, but the
simple faith in God and His goodness,
and seeking for that He is ever ready

SINCLAIR'S OWN JUNGLES.

Upton Sinclair is about to start a
cooperative colony. He has secured
several acres on the Palisades of the
Hudson, and has gathered about him a
group of professors, writer's, lectur-
ers and other people whose society
ought to be congenial. but probably
will not be, and will attempt to mold
them into community in which there
will be nothing but virtue, altruism
and contentment. There will be a the
alter on whose stage Sinclair will ap-
pear as the Jungle and a bowling al
ley is assured in which the pins will
be labeled "tyrants Of the people"
and will be knocked over with pre-
cision by earnest thinkers morning and
evening.
America is tolerably familiar with
the idea Of socialistic and communistic
experiments. They have ranged all
the way from the Brook farm expert
ment. when the elite Of the cultured
east in vain attempted to produce
satisfaction by separation, to the
bearded collection of anarchists some-
where out west, VINO are living to-
gether without law.
1t is a curious fact that while these
communities draw together to obtain
perfect individual liberty they usually
result in dissolution because Individual
liberty Is too much restricted. The

taken from The Saturday Record:

They will have to be paid in the end,
anyway, and the sooner the incident
is closed and forgotten the better. The

TIPPING THE PULLMAN PORTER

Did you tip that porter? If not you
ought to be ashamed to travel hrst-
class and not give tip, for the porter
needs the money and the Pullman
company cannot afford to pay him
very much. Therefore, in order that
the company may not have to raise
it's salaries and make up the differ
ence you should fight the multiplying
advocate and show him the error OF
his way. Just show him that the
company really cannot afford to pay
the porters any more money, and If
he does not give a tip and they are
compelled to do it the stockholders
will suffer. Read him the following
touching statement.
From August, 1898, to August, 1896,
stockholders have received $7,200,000 In
extra 20 per cent cash dividend, $685.
CSC, 900 in regular dividends and $46,-
SOC. 900 present market value Of $751;
100000 gift stock. Total, $87,660, 900.
Total per cent received in eight years
by stockholders 234.5O. In cash 1880
per cent. In market value gift stock
100 per cent. Average per cent in
cash per annum 14.18. Average per
cent in stock 1925. Total average
for eight years 3O.43 per cent.
Then if he does not see the neces-
sity for handing out a larger tip give
never can be convinced, and it is use
less to argue with them.
