HERE WEDNESDAY NIGHT.

Mrs. Temples Telegram" proved
to be the dramatic surprise of last
season in New York and London,
and will be presented at the Park
opera house here Wednesday even
ing
The farce is mounted In the most
lavish manner and employs per-
feet company in its Interpretation.
One begins laughing with the first
word spoken and does not stop un-
I'll the final curtain falls. New COM
plications arise every moment, and
the interest is sustained until the
end of the play, which comes sud
denly and without the usual warn
ing.
"Mrs. Temples Telegram" is mod
estly announced as farce, and so
it is, technically speaking, but 50
skillfully played as to give to those
who see 1t the delight and satisfac-
tion which attend a finished perform
ance of comedy. 1t is a farce played
as n comedy and thus treated, Its
clever situations and entan clements
which otherwise might seem strained
and theatrical become the real
thing"
Mrs. Temples Telegram" was or
iginally produced at Walter n. Law
renee at the Madison Square theater
New York.

BIG CROWD
SAW GAME

The game between Palisade and
Grand Junction Sunday at the fair
grounds was weak one all around
There were one or two plays that had
redeeming features; but there was
nothing spectacular or even interest
ing about the general playing. 1t
was not nearly so well a contested
game as the one between Fruita
and Grand Junction the week previ-
Gus.
Errors were numerous on both
trous.
Griffen made two very bungling
errors in center field-the don't
care-a-dam sort, which are usually
more costly than those of mistaken
judgment. He may have been sick
or something else may have been the
matter with him; but for a sched-
uled star player he was small dope.
He at least could have given the
grand stand an imitation of attempt
ing to do something when the ball
came in his direction.
Toner pitched fine game. He is
good player and is earnest and
wastes no time. He was well sup
ported by Wenkler.
Palisade should have taken Frui-
ta's pitcher. Belts had no control of
the ball, and, while he showed some
good head work, he should have en-
deavored to prevent so many men
going to base on balls.
Ljundgren at second base, and
Clark at right field for Palisade
played fair game; also Russell at
short. Clark is about as good stuff
as can be found in the valley for
reliable playing. He is there with
the goods all the time.
There was an immense crowd out
to see the game and 1t shows that
the people here are anxious for good
ball and are willing to support it,
There is great anxiety upon the
part of a great many people to see
a contest with some outside club
say Glenwood Springs. There would
be no limit to the crowd for such a
game.
The score stood Z to at the close
of the game in favor of Grand juno
tion.
There were nearly 700 paid ad-
missions to the game. More than
100 people were down from Palisade.

that the great fruit crop of the val

NO NECESSITY FOR ANY ALARM
TIES BEING PUT UNDER OLD b,
& G. TRACK SHOOTER THAN
OLD TIES.
Placed Level With Ground, Cannot
Interfere with Traffic More than
FOrmerly-Track Repaired for Use
in Hauling Material for Building
international Bridge.

Some uneasiness has been ex-
pressed by number of persons over
the fact that the old Brownsville &
Gulf track on Twelfth street is being
repaired, and more particularly be-
cause the new ties that are being
placed under the track are said to be
of standard length, it being feared
that this man be preliminary to some
move towards widening the gauge of
the track.
The matter was called to the at
tention of Mayor Combe today, and
, he went down at once to investigate
the matter. After a careful explora-
ton along the line, the mayor re-
ports that there is no cause for any
alarm whatever about the move, as
the new ties, instead of being longer
than the old ones, are, in fact, sew
eral inches shorter. They are more
over being placed exactly level with
the gorund, and cannot therefore in
terfere with traffic on that street,
any more than formerly.
The line is being repaired, as stat
ed by General Manager Miller of the
Brownsville road in an interview
with Herald reporter recently, for
the purpose of hauling gravel to bal
last the track of the Rio Grande
road, preparatory to hauling rock and
gravel which will be shipped by wat
er via Galveston and Point Isabel for
the construction of the international
bridge at this point.
