An ElOpement

"Papa we're married. That's tht
message that greeted Mr. j. E. Shut,
over the wires last Friday from his
daughter Myrtle at Pocatello. 1t was 6
complete surprise to all of the family
and carried with it some of the idea
"Have we lost a daughter or gained a
SOM" The contracting parties were Mr.
Walter Jones, son of ex-sheriff w. r
Jones, and Miss Myrtle Shultz. Both
parties are well known here and The
Republican extends congratulations but
would discourage entering into such a
serious and sacred contract as one would
enter into joke. Ignoring the interest,
the rights and feelings of those who are
near and dear brings no desirable ad-
vantage and deals useless affront that
is as hard to overcome as the old ties
are tender and sacred.

Return Engagement

Blackfoot's favorite emotional actress.
Miss Josephine Deffry plays a special
return engagement of one night here
Saturday, Mar. %. When she will pre-.
sent for the first time in Blackfoot the
four act society success, The Second
Mrs. Tremaine," too much praise cannot
be given Miss Deffry for securing this
play-one Of the great successes Of the
age, for her return engagement here.
The story Of "The Second Mrs. Tre-
maine" is that Of woman with part
who gains the love and sympathy Of Mr..
Tremalne and marries him. Mr.. Tre-
maine is middle aged man who has
been married before, his first wife has
died and left him beautiful daughter.
exposing in body, mind and soul all
that careful mother would have her
be. Into her life comes this second wife
who has deliberately lived an immoral
life. No matter how the sympathy may
be won, as was the case with Mr., Tre.
maine. The big immutable fact remains
The poison Of sin has been drunk and
life can never be permanently pure
again. And such woman is forever
barred from the sweet converse Of the
really good. The daughter cannot take
to her heart and love this woman, whose
life has been bad. The story Of the play
teaches one Of the great morals Of to-
day. And Miss Deffrey without pretend.
ing to teach moral lesson is uplifting
the stage and you.
This is positively Miss Deffreys last
appearnce here this season as she goes
almost directly from here to a tour Of
the Pacific Coast. On account Of the
engagement the curtain will
be at 8p. m.
