Griffiths, the hypnotist, is at the opera
house this week and is entertaining fair
sized audiences with his hypnotic skill.
Monday he performed the blind drive
and accomplished the feat without rum
ming over as many as one of the numer-
GUS spectators who gathered about the
main thoroughfares to witness the ex-
hibition. Monday evening lady men,
ber of his company was placed in hyp-
motto state, after which she was put
into one of the show windows of the
New York store, where she soundly
slept during Monday night and Tuesday.
One of the managers of the establish
ment who has charge of the clothing de-
partment protected her from the an
noyance of the flies by placing mos
quito net over her face, and the subject
seemed to rest very easy after that and
did not awaken until she was brought
out of her hypnotic state at the opera
house Tuesday evening.

Viola Allen, who is to appear at
the Spokane theater June "a and rs,
says: ut is generally supposed that
the success Of a performer depends
upon the actor. author and manager.
This statement is true in a measure;
vet one of the most important cons
siderations has been overlooked. an
appreciative and generous audience.
"The truth of this proposition may
be more readily understood by those
who have attended a rehearsal when
there is naught save empty seats con-
fronting the players. Matters not how
enhancing, stirring or captivating a
play might be at rehearsal is ever
appears dull and spiritless. But I'LL

cordially participate in the actors eff
forts, and a metamorphose occurs
which might be likened to the break
ing forth of a volcano, or even the
call of spring to buried flowers. In
terest and activity fill the scene and
the performers are thrilled with ener-
gy and exhilaration
Appreciation is the parent Of ACHE
vement. Those audiences see the best
acting which encourage the actor by
hearty, genial and merited applause.
The effect is magical On the other
hand, a cold house chills the genial
current of the actors art dulling ACHE
vement and causing it to sink into a
flatness which would otherwise appear
spontaneous and electrical. Charles
Matthews was once so disconnected
with melancholy face in the audience
that he was obliged to address the
gentleman thus, at the same time Civ
ing him one of his most comical looks:
4 beg your pardon, sir, but If you
don't laugh l can't go on" This sally
was received by the audience with
such roars that the unconscious offend
ing auditor throughout the evening
laughed louder than anyone else"

Is made that their testimony will be
no less alient than that of Orchard

Haywood and the other Steve Adams,
although Adams was first listed as a
witness for the state. He made a ron.
fesison corroborating Orchards story.
Then, as soon as he got an attorney,
he repudiated this statement abso-
lutely, declaring it was extorted from
him by Detective MCFARLAND, through
threats and promises. Immediately aft
er he was taken to Wallace, Idaho, and
placed on trial for the murder of
Fred Tyler. The jury disagreed, stand
ing seven for conviction to five for
acquittal. Detective MCFARLAND, how
ever, seems determined to have his
point if possible and it has been an
nounced that Adams will be taken to
Telluride, Colo, for trial for the MUIR
der of Collins, superintendent of the
Smuggler Union mine.
Adams takes his situation philosoph-
ically He feels that every public Of

trail which the mineowners have left
throughout the entire region. The jury
heard this man Naylor take the stand
and recite how the militia had shot
up miners headquarters at Victor;
how he had deported men without re-
gard to their legal rights; how min
ers had been openly slain and their
murderers protected by the mineown-
ers' association, and we will show be

Pinkertons and the mineowners want

murderer of a score of men, set free. -
This statement was made by one of
the leaders of the defense.

Hartman Is Out.

The agreement between the HART
man interests and the Rock Island
company, entered into in 1904 for the
control Of the Chicago & Alton rail-
road, has been abrogated by mutual
consent, according to an authoritative
announcement made recently. In the
future, it was state, the Chicago &
Alton stockholders will manage the
property. Under the agreement which
has just been abrogated the Rock
Island company and the Hartman in
terests alternately controlled the Chi
cago & Alton, the Rock Island com
pany being in control one year and
the Hartman interests the next. The
plan would have expired in 1914.
The termination of this plan is said
to be without prejudice to either
party. The Chicago & Alton officials
explained that it was simply an in.
stance of letting stockholders manage
their own affairs 1t was felt that this
policy would best subserve the in
terests of the stockholders. There is
to be no change, according to the Chi
cago & Alton officials, in the policy
of the road, which has been managed
by the Rock Island under the joint con
troll agreement since last September

Unable to find an undertaken will
ing to bury the remains of Herman
Unger, the Pittsburg suicide, Unger's
brother Odd Fellows in Boston have
written to his home lodge asking them
to take charge of their embarrassing
bequest. The difficulty arises from
the fact that in pursuance of Unger's
dying request, the Odd Fellows of Bos-
ton had his body cremated and mixed
the ashes with cement, making a con
crete brick weighing over 100 pounds,
For several days now this huge brick
has been in the yard Of the Water
Proofng company. Not only have I'M
dertakers refused to handle it, but He
brew cemeteries have declined to re-
ceive it because Unger was a suicide.
The Odd Fellows have a burial certi-
flcate, however, and unless the under
takers make terms or the Pittsburg
Odd Fellows take charge, Unger's re-
mains are likely to bake in the sun
at the brickyard for an indefinite
period.
