that stirring play of the hour, in which
that master dramatist, Charles Klein,
has gripped avital problem of the day
Here is what one noted critic says of
MISS Marno's art: 1.-The dramatic
reading of Isreal ZangwilI's Merely
Mary Ann" by the gifted artistic, Miss
Marno, was. to my mind, something
unique and charming as to itself, and
highly suggestive from an artistic
point of view. Miss Marno gave the
story with admirable talent in all
. ways Her tone carried. her enuncia-
ton was pure and round as a pearl, her
voice color was suited to the characters
portrayed, and, taken for all in ALL l
found it entertaining in high degrees.
There is wide suggestiveness III this
way of dealing with dramatic litera-
ture. If novels are to be dramatiged,
(, Why should not the process be revised
and our dramas given us abridged and
in story form? Miss Marno is abun-
dainty endowed with that highest Of ali
eleSiderat for public entertainer, mag
netism, and whatever the emotion to
.iibe conveyed, she carries it to her list

many feel that they would prefer to
be in cushioned chair than on the
back of the animal.
All the contests were on their real
merits. In fact, never in the history
OF racing in Durango have races been
run in as dead earnest as the past
three days, rejecting credit on the
horsemen and the management.
The ball game was too one-sided to
be interesting, although the start was
all right. In the first inning Silver
ton scored and likewise Durango, both
runs being by close margins. Durango
scored again in the second and in
creased the lead to five in the third
inning. The fourth was a shut out for
Durango but the following inning there
was slaughter of the innocents. the
Durango boys running around the
bases until they were tired, getting
in ten runs. After two or three runs
were made with three men on bags
Herrick hit for two bases, scoring two
men. Caldwell following with another
two base hit bringing in two more
guns. Beckwith was in the box for
SilVerton and the Durango boys sent
the ball in every direction around the
diamond. Three more runs were made
in the seventh inning, being the last
played by Durango. After scoring in
the first Silverton was goose-egged un-
til the fifth when DAILY scored and in
the seventh five of the Silverton boys
scored. After playing the first half
OF the eighth the game was called
in order to give Silverton players
an opportunity to take the train for
home.
The Herald desires to compliment
the Durango boys. Each and every
one played good ball, especially for the
practice.
And Jack Slattery. He smiled in
defeat and says he will try and get
even when Durango visits Silverton.
Both clubs have agreed not to import
players and this will revive old time
interest.
