SOMEWHAT DISAPPOINTING
Miss Roselle Knott Appears In One OF
Barrie's Comedies at the
Opera House.

Roselle Knott, for number OF
years Richard Mansfleld's leading
iady and one of the leading actresses
on the stage, was seen at the Park
opera house last night in j. NJ. Bar
rie's comedy, t-By-The-Fire
and 1t seemed to US that the perform
ance was somewhat disappointing
TO the audience as a whole Barrie S
comedies are very delightful in a
way. but several of them are much
more entertaining and Interestingly than
"Alice-Sit-By-The Fire" and the
comedy is not worthy of the rare tai
ents and lovely personality of Miss
Knott. It was her first appearance
In Grand Junction and we had rather
have seen her in something stronger
and more genuinely interesting than
this little comedy. But as "Alice-Sit-
By-The-Flre" was made famous by
Ethel Barrymore and made great
big hit in New York City perhaps we
had better keep mum and not attempt
in our weakly way to criticise 1t.
There are at times some very dra-
matte situations, lasting for few
minutes each. but the humorous sit
uations are so numerous and come
so rapidly and so suddenly that you
hardly know when to take one of the
more dramatic moments in a serious
way.
Roselle Knott is charming woman
n most delightful and winsome act
ress, and to listen to her few minut-
es and watch her captivating move
ments is all that Is necessary to con-
vince one that she richly deserves the
high rank she takes on the American
stage. She was pleasing at all times
last evening and yet we don't believe
the comedy to any extent gives her
opportunity to properly show her un-
doubted ability and talent.
"AlieeSit-By-The- he-Fire" is a strange
ly incongruous mixup, 1t is really a
pretty little story in which there are
no repulsive or hateful characters,
the fight that Alice, rather Mrs. Grey
the colonels young wife, makes for
the love of her children from whom
she had been separated for several
years. gives a pathetic tone to the
comedy that is really the only truly
refreshing characteristic.
Eric Blind made a very pleasing
Colonel Grey. Miss Viola Knott as
young Amy Grey, the firm believer in
what goes on at the theatre, was
sweet and refreshing. The several
other characters were fairly well por-
trayed.
The stage settings for the two acts
were handsome.
The audience was a big one COM
pletely filling the opera house.
Taking it all and all the perform
ance was a very enjoyable one. May
Miss Knott come this way again and
again but we had rather see her in
something stronger than "Alice-Sit-
By-The-Fire."

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us Strong
and Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every
three minutes. The kidneys filter
the blood. They work night and
day. When healthy they remove
about 500 grains of impure matter
daily, when unhealthy some part
of this impure matter is left in the
blood. This brings on many dis
eases and symptoms-pain in the
back, headache, nervousness, hot,
dry skin, rheumatism, govt, gravel,
disorders of the eyesight and hear
ing, dizziness, irregular heart, de
bility, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits
in the urine, etc. But if you keep
the filters right you will have no
trouble with your kidneys.

SACRED HORNS.
The Queer Adornment of a Peculiar
Chinese People.

Chinese People.
Adjoining the Chinese prefecture
of Chienchang is a deep gully
barred by a river which no China
man is permitted to pass until be
finds bail for his good conduct in
LolOdom.
The Lolos are a slim, well made
muscular race, with oval reddish
brown faces, high cheek bones and
pointed chins, from which the beard
has been carefully plucked. They
are far taller than the Chinese and
indeed than any European race, but
their marked peculiarly is the horn
Every male adult gathers his hair in
knot over his forehead and then
twists it up in a cotton cloth SC
that it resembles the horn of uni
corn.
The horn is considered sacred
and even if Lolo settles in Chinese
territory and grows a pigtail he still
preserves his horn. The Lole
mans principal garment is a widc
sleeveless mantle Of red or blacl;
felt tied about the neck and de
scending almost to the heels. ThG
trousers are of Chinese cotton witt
felt bandages. No shoes are worn
but a comcal hat of woven bamboo
covered with felt furnishes a head
covering as well as an umbrella.
The Chinese divide the Lolos into
two classes, which they call respec-
lively "hlaek bones" and 'Swhite
bones" the irst being the noble;
and the latter their vassals and re-
tainers. There is also a third clasy
of captive Chinese and their de
scendants, called "watzu," practical
ly slaves, who are tattooed on the
forehead with the mark of their
tribe.
The Lolos never marry except il
their own tribes, captive Chinese
women being given to their bonds
men. The marriage of a 'blaek
bone" is a time Of great festivities
and many banquets. The betrothal
is celebrated and ratified by the
present of the husband to The
BRIDES family Of a pig and three
vessels of wine
On the wedding morn the bride is
richly dressed with many orna
merits. She is expected to weer
profusely, whether she feels so IN
clined or not. In the midst of her
tears the groom's relatives and
friends dash in, seize the bride, the
best man carries her out of doors
on his shoulders, she is clapped on a
horse and hurried off to her new
home. Here she finds horses, cat
tie and sheep, provided by the
groom's family, while her own peo-
pie send clothes, ornaments and
corn. Women occupy high posi-
ton amohg the Lolos, and a woman
chief is not unknown among tie
tribes.-New York Herald.
