The Tent Shows.

The Burt Imson Theatre Co. pitched
their large tent last Thursday on the
vacant lots west of the p%ostoffice and
intended to give their performance, but
on account of rain and stormy weather
were handicapped and did not open
their series of entertainments until
Saturday when they put on the famous
drama, Mabel Heath, which a APP
preciated by a large audience. Sun
day evening the bill was East Lynn,
next evening the piece was Adrift in
New York, Tuesday evening a comedy
was put on entitled Family Troubles.
Last evening, and probably one of
the best of all pieces was The Gambler
and the Girl, which took we'll with the
audience.
This is a nice, clean refined company
and their plays r all very good, and
the patrons who have been in attend
ance feel they have spent a pleasant
time and got their moneys worth. On
account Of misunderstanding of their
next date, have decided to remain in
our city the balance of this week and
give a nightly performance. The en-
tertainment this evening will be Vaude,
vile.
If you want to drive away the
"blues" and spent a few amusing
hours, attend these performances the
balance of this week and be sure and
bring the children along, or take your
Observation-Disclosures Tribune.
This company will appear in Hope
all next week.

Every bird destroys in a season on an
average $50, 900 of the insects that could
be prevented from gobbling up 5000, 900,
900 worth of farm products if we only
had birds enough. Birds have decreased
80 per cent in the last ten years through
the depredations of egg-collecting boys
and the house cat, and on account of a
fondness for paint and feathers not con-
fined to the squaws OF the original race.
Aigrettes, that favorite device of the mil
linery art, is responsible for the destruc-
tion of the white heron which feeds upon
the borer Of river dikes that, now undis.
turbed, causes serious trouble.
We cannot afford to lose the birds.
Take grasshoppers, for instance; each one
will eat his own weight every single day
he lives. The crow thinks grasshoppers
delicious and pays off in this way his
score on corn. Every common bird is
worth to the farmer dollar a year, and
sometimes four or five dollars.
Mr.. Eaton used colored charts, show
ing the different families of birds, and
made his address especially pleasing with
bits Of poetry and touches of humor.
A final selection by the quartet closed
the program.

Guest NIGHT.

The Randolph Woman's Literary club
had its annual Guest night Friday at
Bethany Parish house and extended hos
pitality TO about 175 club members and
invited friends. Ii was happily man
aged occasion that followed somewhat the
ordinary course of a club meeting but al
lowed the company lightly to skim the
depths of learning in which it is the usu
al custom to take deep dives for the truth
that lies below.
In the receiving line were stationed
the vice president of the club, Miss Jen-
nie Stewart; the chairman of the enter
tainment committee, Mrs. f. G.. Ham I;
the elocutionist of the evening, Miss Ma
bel Hamilton of the Montpelier seminary
faculty, and the secretary and treasurer
of the club, Miss Desier Moulton and
Mrs. f. 5. Tracy. In the absence of the
president, Mrs. Homer White, on account
of illness, Miss Stewart spoke the cordial
word of welcome and announced that the
event of Wssbington's birthday anniver-
sary being so near at hand as the next
day, the quotations in response to the
roll call would be on the nations hero, to
the great relief, no doubt, of the gentle
men, who had heretofore been made the
butt of merciIes feminine wit couched in
apt duotdtiuhS-
The roll was then called by the secre-
tary with general response from the
ladies. A humorous selection, "Cousin
Agatha Baby" and the pathetic sketch
of Helena Tamree'' were very cleverly
given by Miss Hamilton, who is tai
ented reader with pleasing presence,
smoothly modulated voice and we'll
balanced style of delivery-not lacking
in animation and yet not too gesticula-
tive.
During the evening an orchestra of five
pieces discoursed delightful music that
formed part of the program and provided
also an accompaniment to the murmur of
voices in the enjoyment of the social
hour.
To cosy groups seated about the room,
refreshments of coffee, sandwiches, cake
and ice cream were served by Misses
Alice Mcintyre, Genieve Lamson, Helen
Wedgwood, Catherine Metzger, Maud
Putnam, Ruth Roundy and Jessie Chedel.
A little longer lingering in genial COM
pany preceded the general dispersion,
and another Guest night passed into his
tory marked a success.

A Wonderful Drama Of Interest.

Most strikingly effective of all the re-
lgious dramas ever presented is s'The
Holy City, Clarence Benefits powerful
and interesting play at Chandler Music
hall March IA. 1t pictures with vivid
strength and mastery power the scenes
and incidents leading up to the betrayal
of the Master by Judas. The dance of Sa-
lone, the daughter of Herodias, before
King Herod is shown, as is her successful
plea for the head of the great preacher.
After Johns death, events move with
great rapidity and the plotting and
scheming of the high priest and the
Pharisees with Herod are depicted as
we'll as the giving of the thirty pieces of
silver to Judas, who promises to betray
Jesus into the hands of his enemies. The
presence of Jesus is, of course, only sug-
gested, but so cleveriy is this done that the
spectator seems carried back two thous-
and years and fancies himself an actual
witness of the great scenes which accom-
panied the enactment of the greatest ira
gedy in the history of the world.
Other scenes depict the commissions of
nature at the moment of the crucifxion,
the suicide of the remorseful Judas and
the bringing OF the glad tidings of the
resurrection. The entire play is drama
OF simple majesty anu Wouutfiui Interest.
ssBetter than a sermon'-that is a re-
mark which has been made time and
again by clergymen who have witnessed
a performance of "The Holy City," the
most successful and the best of all the re-
ligious dramas ever presented upon the
English-speaking stage. 1t is a vital,
moving and historically accurate drama
dealing with the scenes and incidents at
tendant upon the betrayal, death and re-
surrection of Christ.
The scenic investiture is particularly
elaborate. The scene showing the judg-
ment hall of the high priest is a triumph
of the scene-painter's art, as is also the
depletion of the roofs of Jerusalem as
seen from the roof sof Herod's palace. I
There are nearly dozen scenes in all,
each one of them painted after patient re-
search and study. The costuming, too, is
rich and varied. The company present.

players of talent and artistic
worth, and large number of supernu-

The company to which this franchise
