John and Wendy, a girl. The children
slept in the most delightful of nurs-
cries. dtten1ed by a wonderful dog
called Mana. Mana could do everything
but talk. Whenever Mr.. and Mrs.
Darling were away from home. she not
only guarded the children. but got
their clothes, prepared their bath, and
put them to bed. So upon the night
which we have in mind. the Darling
parents felt no hesitancy about going
to the opera, leaving the children in the
care of Mana. But the nurse dog had
no sooner left the nursery than there
flew in through the large latticed win
dow, which happened to be open, a
fairy boy in a curious suit of green. He
had been there before, it turned out,
but on that earlier visit had carelessly
left his shadow i'm the room and had
now come back in search of it, Very
stealthily he crept about the nursery,
guided by his invisible fairy cOmpan-
ion, Tinker Bell. in search of his .ost
shadow. At last, finding it and fasten-
ing 1t to himself again with the assist
ance of Wendy Darling, whom he had
awakened by this time, he danced from
one side OF the room TO the other i'm
the most ecStatic joy, only stopping
when Wondy suddenly asked him WI
he was anyhow. 1t turned out that the
DOy was Peter Pan, and that he lived
far off in the NevST-Never-Land, where
he was captain of the famous band of

are those little chaps that fall out of
their per9mbulators when the nurse is
looking the other way. If they are not
called for in seven days. they remain
forever part Of Peters band. At this
point in the introduction, Wendy's two
little brothers were awakened and were
absolutely fascinated by Peter as Wen
dy was, but greater still was their joy
when Peter. by blowing fairy dust upon
their shoulders. invited them to come
away with him to the Never-Never-
Land. So away they all flew through
the latticed window far. far off TO the
Never-Never-Land There they en-
COuntered red Indians and pirates,
formidable crocodile, some wonderfully
feTOciOUs wolves. until at last when
rescued from pirate ship by Peter, the
little wanderers are returned to their
parents.
Thus runs in mere skeleton. the story
of Peter Pan" the most daring. the
most fanciful stage spectacle written
within the memory Of any modern play

the week just past the performance
has played to capacity houses. Not
withstanding the rivalry of the park
amusements, the house has continued
to do good business, and a series of
good shows are promised in the near
future.
Albini, VINO is advertised as this
weeks headliner, deserves to be fea-
tured. He presents one of the most
mystifying acts seen upon the Ameri-
can stage, and has earned the title of
king of Magicians." During his en-
sagement at Madison Square Garden
in New York, where he produced the
most mystic entertainments ever pre-
scented, he challenged the cleverest pro-
fessionals in the business to explain
some of his feats of magic.
Stroad and Thatcher present a whirl-
wind of fun in an original comedy

They receive their share of the APP

teller, and his hunor is of a new brand
distinctly his own.
The musical act of the Pendletons
wins favor with the audience at the
rise of the curtain, and holds their in
terest until the last. Bessie Allen is
clever little soubrette. who INDUCES

is worth seeing. Leon lie Charters

1.-The Dancing Girl"

This weeks engagement at the Or
pheum promises to be no less attractive
and successful than the bill that filed
the popular house at every performance
last week 1.-THE Dancing Girl" from
the pen of Henry Arthur Jones, is the
offering, and the popularity of the play,
with the undisputed ability of the play
ers and the elaborate and beautiful
stage setting, are assurances that a hit
will be made.
The leading characters in the piece
are D-iscilla, the dancing fri, the Duke
of Guise, John Christensen, Sybii
Crake, Faith Ives. David Ives and Reg
gy Slingsby. and these parts will be
played, in the order named, by Miss
Lucia Moore, Al Phillips, Joseph
O'Meara, Miss Hendrie, Mabel Flor
ence, Joe Greene and Roy Clements
with all other members of the company
cast in roles peculiarly adapted to each.
Briefly, the story runs as follows:
priscilla Is a naughty Quaker girl, who
adores the things of the world. She
loves John Christensen, humble en-
gineer, but loves more the money of
the Duke of Guise. whose mistress she
is. The duke would like to give up his
racy mode of life. but doesn't know just
how to do it. Through the interceding
of Faith Ives, John Christensen is led
to spurn the love of her unworthy sis
ter. and then priscilla prevails upon
the duke to marry her. He gives a
promise, which he hopes to evade by
suicide. priscilla gives reception, at
which. Salome-like, she performs a
dance In the midst of it. her Quaker
father, David Ives, enters and de-
nounces her. The dancer reels in a
faint and plunges head-first down the
stairway. The chagrined duke seeks
to end his shame by suicide, but is
saved by Sybil. crippled girl, whom
he had once saved from being tram
pied to death, and who always said that
she would yet drag him from beneath
the horses feet" priscilla dies. but the
end of the last act sees peace and hap
piness Just beginning to dawn for most
of the other persons with whom the
story deals Mr.. Clements role is that
of an English dude.
Besides the regular members of the
company. at least dozen extra people
have been secured to take part in the
performance. and special scenery is be-
ing painted for the staging.

pretty English gardens, a primly-
proper sitting room in country
villa. and the offices of a well-known
lawyer i'll London. In short, Mrs.
Warren's Profession" has a mission
it teaches one of the greatest moral
lessons ever prepared for the stage.
Just why Mrs. Warren's Profess
SION should have been so bitterly at
tackled is not evident 1t may have
been conjectured that weak spirits
would accept Mrs. Warren's arguments
for her evil choice and ignore the con-
tradiction of her own experience. But
she merely expresses publicly the ar
guments that people hear privately
when no word is uttered on either side.
As fer the apparent contempt of reli-
gion and the clergiy that the play cons
tains, the real contention is a sufficient
defense.
Miss Rose Coghlan and an excellent
cast of metropolitan players will pre-
sent this most discussed dramatic
masterpiece by Bernard Shaw at the

The really great theatrical event of the
salt Lake season is scheduled for this
week at the Theatre, when Maude Ad-
ans comes for an engagement of six
performances, five nights and a mat

Miss Adams is looking forward with
much pleasurable anticipation to her

on this pagc will be found an argu-
mcnt, prepared by the press agent. in
favor of Mrs. Warren's Profession, -
which Rose COghl3n is to present at the
Salt Lake theatre next Saturday after
neon and evening. The agent says:
Common sense people accept the Shaw
drama for just what il was intended TO

viewpoint, of an evil that the world has
known since time began" The play

Dramatic critics. as a rule. are not
prudes, but grea- many of them have
said that there is no excuse for the ex-
istence of this play.
To say that it is necessary to portray
the Mrs. Warren character on the stage
is to state utter absurdity. The
fact that she typiies an evil as old as
the world by no means justifies the
placing of the type before decent peo-
pie. 1t is necessary to clean cesspoois,
but up to date no dramatiSt has builded
a play around the cleG ming of a cess
pool. Mrs. WarTen's Profession in

Plan of Codifyins Laws of Idaho.

Code Commissioner John F. Mac
Lane is busily engaged in getting
things in shape so that when he
starts with the actual compiling of
the laws for codihcation the work
may be expedited as much as pos
sible Mrs. John A. Tucker, who,
for a number of years was the chief
deputy in the Canyon county re-
corder'S office, is working with seven
assistants in making what is called
plant. They are cutting the re-
vised statute and session laws, sec
ton by section, and FASTING each
section on separate piece of pa per
upon which will be written the
appropriate annotations.
This method of work, the com
missioner says, saves the time and
expense that would be required in
case the sections were TO he tran
scribed by stenographers, and also
eliminates the possibility of error
arising from such transcription. A
loose leaf plant will be built up
from which the statutes can be
compiled, and if necessary any
change in the arrangement of the
sections or elimination of obsolete
sections or additions of new sec
tions can be accomplished without
rewriting any of the work, other
than the leaf upon which the alter
alton is made.-Statesman.

To the Minnesota mine belongs
the distinction Of having yielded
the largest mass ofnative copper
ever taken from the earth. 1t
was found in 1855 at a depth of
about 220 it., and weighed a
trife over 563 tons, requiring the
services of 40 men for six months
to cut it into pieces small enough
to permit of hosting to surface
and transportation to the east.
AS copper was then worth about
90 cents a pound the value of
this nugget was upwards OF a
half million dollars. The second
largest mass ever secured in the
district, or for that matterin the
world, was raised from the Cen
trail mine, in Keweenaw county,
a few years later, and was of APP
proximately 500 tons weight

FRIDAY, AUGUST IS, 1907.
That New Paper.

The new paper in Pocatello,
shortly to be issued by w H.
Peck, formerly publisher Of the
Southern Idaho Mail at Black
foot, is backed by the 'sCitizens"
party members of the city coun-
Gil. Articles of Incorporation of
the company which is to issue
the sheet have been fled with the
secretary OF state by the follow
ing incorporators: w. HI. Peck,
G. E. M. Loux, Charles Q. Chilson
and L. G. Martin. The capital
OF the company is placed at $685.
900, of which $4,000 has been
subscribed. DR.. Loux is the
"Citizens" party mayor, Mr.. Chill
son and Mr.. Martin are "Citizens"
party councilmen from thefourth
ward, and Mr.. Peck is to be the
editor in chief. The publication
office is located over the Peoples
store. adjoining the dental office
of DR.. Loux. The plant, which
is the one used in the publication
of the Mail at Blackfoot, has been
here for some time, but publica-
tion of the new venture in Poca-
tello has been delayed by the
non-arrival of a new cylinder
press.
The politics OF the new paper
will be somewhat pibald. Mr..
Peck is a Democrat of a pro-
nouncedly pro-Dubois variety.
While publisher OF a paper in
Malad he was a rabid anti-Mor-
mon, and the Mail at Blackfoot
under his editorship was of the
same variety, only more virulent.
The paper here will undoubtedly
be along similar lines, with an in
lection Of Citizens" party poll
ties. Editor Peck will find it not
at all easy to reconcile certain
inconsistencies connected with
such a combination. However,
the real hacker Of the paper is
not worrying. Mr.. Dubois owns
another paper in Boise and the
establishment of the Mail in Pc
catello was in line with his desire
to bolster up his disintegrated
wing of the party over which he
has exercised such disastrous
sway. The clever stroke OF in
weighing leaders OF the Citizens"
party in Pocatello to take stock
in the paper, thus giving it some
initial prestige, is peculiarly Du-
boiseque. When the local poll
ticians become tired of putting
up money to support the losing
venture, Mr. Dubois will come
forward with either the money or
some other scheme to keep the
paper alive.
