Maude Adams success in the role, said to be "the most impersonal and imagina- tive acting of her career" is common knowledge The play given all last and a portion of this season at the Empire theatre, New York, is now on a tour which will ultimately extend to San Francisco. Maude Adams and her compa- ny will open the new theatre, the New Columbia, which is now being built on the site of the one destroyed by fire and earthquake.
 Story of "Peter Pan"
 Tn whatever city you wish to fancy there once lived a family by the name of Darling. MT. and Mrs. Darling were the parents of three children, Michael John and Wendy, a girl. /'rhe children slept in the most delightful of nurseries, at tended by a wonderful dog called Mana. Mana could do everything but talk. Whenever MT. and Mrs Darling were away from home, Mana not only guard ed the children, but got their night clothes, prepared their bath, and lugged them to bed upon .her back So. upon the night which we have in mind, the Darling parents felt no hestancy about going to the opera and leaving the chi dren in the care of their wonderful house dog. As things happened, however, Mana had no sooner finished her usual duties as nurse and gone from the nursery than there flew in through the large latticed window, which happened to be open, fairy boy in a curious suit of green. He said nothing at all as he came in, but it turned out that he had been there on an earlier visit and had carelessly left his shadow and now came back in search of it. Very stealthily he crept about the nursery, guided by his fairy companion, Tinker Bell. in search of his lost shadow At last finding it and fast ening it to himself again with the aid of Wendy Darling, whom he had awak- ened by this time, he danced from one side of the room to the other in most ecstatic joy, only stopping when Wendy suddenly asked him who he was any how. It turned out that the boy was called Peter Pan, and that he lived far off in the Never Never Land, where he was captain of the famous band of Lost Boys The Lost Boys, you see, are those little chaps that fall out of their perambulators when the nurse is looking the other way. If they are not called for in seven days, they remain forever mem- bers of Peter Pans band.
 At this point in the introduction, Wen dy's two little brothers were awakened and were completely fascinated by Peter as Wendy was. But greater still was their joy when Peter, by blowing fairy dust upon their shoulders, invited them to fly away with him to the Never Never Never-Land. So away they all flew through the lattfced window, far far off to the Never Never-L Land. There they encountered red Indians and pirates a formidable crocodile. some awfuly fe- rocious wolves, until at last, when res cued from the pirate ship by Peter, the little wanderers returned to their par ents.

"The Tourlsts.n

'The Tourists" which comes to the Jefferson theatre tomorrow night for one performance only, is one of the musical comedies of the season that has estab- lished permanent success by consecutive engagements of six months at the Majes- tic theatre in New York, and four months in Boston, the latter during the heat of the summer. At a time when there has been almost an over-production of musi- cal entertainments the popularity of musical comedy that can live for a pe- riod of six months at one theatre and en- joy prosperity must bespeak for it solid intrinsic values in the matter of it's book, It's lyrics, It's music and It's humor.
 The book and lyrics of "The Tourists" are by R. IT. Burnside, who has during the last two or three seasons risen to prominence as an American lfbrettist, and the music is the composition of Gustav kerker, who has been prolific as a writer of lighter and entertaining melody.
 MT. Burnside has chosen for his en- yironment the mythical city of Ranga- pang, in the interior of Hindnstano, where. he has brought two parties of American tourists one consisting of young girls and the other of young American student, accompanied by his eccentric tutor and guardian. The Rajah of Rangapang not only resents this in- trusion, but desires to add to his harem at least one of the three young Ameri- can girls, This leads to number of complications that evolve all sorts of fun making and give opportunities for mass i've effects in the matter of production, There are any number of song hits. but that sung by Louise Barthel, Its Nice to Have Sweetheart" is easily one of the hits of the year, The cast is one of un- usual excellence, and besides a[ beauty chorus, such as the Shuberts always have with their companies, there Is the fascinating Fiorlnne Sweetman, the prima donna soprano Leonera Watson, and such charming comediennes as Hattle Deiaro-

Three Times a Week Service
for Rural Route No. 2.

After the fifteenth of this month
the patrons of rural route No. 2
will receive their mail but three
times week. The local postoffice
received orders to that effect the
first of the week. 1t is supposed
that owing to the fact that but few
OF the people living along this
route have taken advantage of the
conveniences offered by the service
it was thought best to change the
schedule. X. f. d. route No. 2
goes down toward Harpster and
passes through one of the most
prosperous sections of the entire
prairie. The mail will leave
Grangeville every Tuesday, Thurs
day and Saturday morning when
the new schedule goes into effect,
which will be about May 10th.
