ARGUMENT.

The scene of the 0peretta is laid III Spain in the 16th century, at the Castle of Aguilar and in the woods adjoining. The Countess of Aguilar lives upon her estates snrrouuoeu Inv her faithful retainers, under the com mand of Don Sebastian, her friend an9 ao- wiser. The Countess, some years preVious to the opening of the Operetta, lost her younger daughter, Lady linda, in mysterious man ner. She is believed, by all but Countess to be dead: but her mother fancies that she Is wandering about unprotected, in strange countries, and hence in pity for all wander CTS. she has given orders that no one snail De turned from her doors.
 ACT I.
 SCENE-Entrance Hall to Castle. The re- retainers and Spanish Lords lounging about while the ladies are in their rooms, arrang- ing for the days entertainment. Sebastian and others are complaining of the Countess Isabella's unbounded hospitality, and pre- dict that she will be reduced to poverty. While singing, guests seek admission. Se' bastian wishes to send them away but finally two little German Peasants are admitted who beg for food and shelter The boy IS mute, and the girl gives everyone the Ger man greetin 2, "Gluck-auf" hence the boy receives his name The Countess bids them remain as guests. Among the guests at the Castle are Don Carlos, a Spanish Lord, and Sir Roland Graeme, an English Knight, both suitors for the hand of Lady Inez-Isabella's remaining daughter. Their servants, Pedro and Donald, become jealous and have dis pute concerning the respective rights oi heir masters in the lady, which ends Tn al fight Now appears Gluck-auf in his true character of a German Sprite bringing good luck and happiness to all, his talisman Q four-leaved clover. He stops the fight, and while Gretchen explains, gives them four leaved clovers, which they place in their shoes, and peace is restored. The act closes with the betrothal of Lady Inez and the usual congratulations.
 ACT II.
 SCENE 1-Dense woods midway between the Castle of Aguilar and the Gypsies Camp Sir Roland has wandered into the woods in deep detection, followed by Donald. Gluck' auf and Gretchen appear and try to give him the talisman. At last Sir Roland accepts the leaf with the promise,
 "The first you see will ready be | To grant you all her love"

PUBLISHED EVERY WEDNESDAY
Going to Church

4 friend of ours said last Monday; "I went to church last night" We were surprised. We could hardly re- member when he had ever been before. Now this statement may astonish some of our readers, especially when we ex- plain that the "friend" is one of the lending citizens of Douglas. But, we say further, this man is not the eX- ception, for there are hundreds of men on Douglas Island who do not enter a church once a year. Why? Is Doug las peopled by a lot of infidels, skeptics, agnostics and unbelievers? We think not: four or five lodges whose mem 6ers profess belief in Supreme Being have good attendance.
 Douglas has six churches: Catholic, Congregational, Episcopal, Lutheran, Friends and Greek Catholic. Surely in that number any man should find one to suit his fancy.
 To satisfy our curiosity, we asked a number of men the question, "why don't you go to church?" One man said: 70. 1 don't care anything for preachin', get enough of that at home. My wife is always at it."
 Another said: "I work seven days in the week, and the few hours that have to spare from sleep, l spend as much as possible in the open air
 Still another declared that the churches are full of bypocrites and he wanted nothing to do with them. We suggested that the church was really the place for sinners, and that it's aim is to make men better. He replied that they had plenty to do to look after their own mem bers and he didn't wish to add to the burden.
 So it was all the way down the line, the men either evaded the question or answered with laugh or sheer. The ladies on Douglas Island are much better church -goers than the men, but they seldom crowd the sacred editices.
 One is almost led to believe that religion is on the down grade and that the church is losing it's grip on the lives of the people. At any rate our question is still unanswered: Why don't you go to church?
Douglas Island news., 1907-04-10

Douglas has a preacher who, besides being celebrated pulpit orator, is fond of good joke. Last Monday evening he was coming from Treadwell as the snow was falling in great white flakes. Near the 1900" mill he met a soldier solemnly walking his beat, with his gun over his shoulder. The preacher stopped, and said; "Good
 evening, sentry; how long have you been in this country?" About nine months, sir" replied the soldier. "Would you please do me favor?" asked the preacher. Certainly" answered the soldier, anything in my power" "Well," said the parson, "pIease tell me, is this spring or fall9"
