Max Figman in "The Man on the
Box" is the attraction announced for
Wednesday, April %, at the Orpheum.
Mr. Figman is a genuine comedian

combination it is not always the good
fortune of the theatergoer to encoun-
ter. Mr.. Figman, through his artis-
tic delineations Of the title role has
been hailed as the foremost comedian
on the American stage, and last sea

day the Turkish government or their
great dam and the Jordan valley will
blossom as the irrigated fields in Ari-
IONA.
Next is the drive to the water edge
of the Dead sea. about 8 miles distant
from ancient Jericho Here is the
strangest sight of my life A body of
water forty five miles long and thir-
teen miles wide and thirteen hundred
feet below the ocean level and thir-
teen hundred feet deep. So salty is
the water that no living animal or veg
etable exists in it and no vegetation
grows near the shore; and the very
air around the sea is full of salty
fumes, and the breathing is different
from any ever experienced anywhere.
People swan in the water who could
not swim an inch and who would have
drowned in fresh water. Out of his
depth one man sat down in the water
and held over his head an umbrella.
We visited the mouth of the Jordan
river where it pours five million tons
daily into the sea, and from which
there is no outlet except by evapora-
ton. Seeing this great flood Of water
rushing into the sea one Instantly
thinks that the dead, greedy basin will
soon fill up, but not SO. Over the
sea hangs a vapor all day long and
this is why it never gets full, the evap-
grafton in the warm atmosphere is so
rapid.
A sight from the Dead sea is worth
mention. Looking west to Jerusalem
thirty miles distance, can see TIE
Russian tower on Mount Oliyet, and
with the naked eye. This is wonderful
when you consider the Dead sea is
thirteen hundred feet below the ocean
level and Jerusalem is thitrtyone hun
bred feet above the ocean. 1 saw the
tame sight from the ancient ford of
he Jordan. This proved another thing
% my satisfaction and that is the view
Moses is said to have made from
Mount Nebo which is very near the
I Dead sea to the east. 1t is said he
climbed on Mount Nebo and viewed
all the promised land, and l saw from
my view that he could have seen nearly
the whole land from a high mountain,
Which no doubt was his opinion.
Another historical and traditional
land mark not far from the Jordan
ford is what the natice Bedouins, call
to this day the "Tree of Gilgal," for
aS lonely sentinel IL marks the snn.
where Joshua stopped the hosts OF
ancient Israel after crossing the Jor.
dan, and the twelve tribes piled in
heap twelve stones as memorial OF
their entrance into the promised land
Not the same tree or stones are here
but tradition and history have brought
to us the place perhaps as correctly
as they did the site of Jericho.
We visited the ford of the Jordan
Bisbee daily review., 1908-04-17

ailout three milss from the mouth
and where the Israelites are said to
have crossed. We crossed the river
in boat, but it is deep and the banks
are lined with green trees and switch
cane. We took the measure of the
depth near the bank with pole seven
feet long and the water became very
rapidly deeper further out We cross
ed over in the land of Moab for the
experience of being in the land of
Ruth.
At the close of our days wandering
a Baptist preacher from Florida led
two people down in the edge of the
stream and baptized them as in olden
time. / read the Bible lessons and we
sang the songs of our Christian land
i spoke to an Arab guide in French
and he said ne liked the singing. The
sun was just setting and the Russian
tower on Mount Oliyet fades out of
sight in the dark And we drive to the
hotel for the night

HEARST STILL oBDTrRATE

In reply to Mr.. Gompers' appeal to
Hearst to stand by the democratic
party, the yellow journalist has given
MI. Bryan a backhander that he will
o forget during this campaign at
least. Wiring from Paris Mr.. Hearst
says:
Tell Mr.. Gompers that l am not
authorized to speak for the member
ship of the dependence party, but, ac-
cording to my personal standards. a
purer patriotism consists in laboring
to establish a new party which will be
consistently devoted to the interests of
citizenship and particularly to the ad-
vantage and advancement of the pro-
ducing classes. l do not think the
path Of patriotism hes in supporting
q d~iscredited and decadent old party
which has neither conscientious con.
victions nor honest intention, nor en-.
dorsing chameleon candidates who
change the color of their political opin-
ion with every varying hue OF oppor.
tunism. l do not think the best bene-
ft Of iaboring men lies in supporting
that old party because Of a sop VI
false promise, when the performance
Of that party while in power did more
to injure labor than all the injunc.
tons ever issued before or since.

HOW BRYAN LET A SECRET OUT.

In addition to being the most beau.
tiful woman at the convention, Mrs
John e. Osburne Is also a bride.
I'm from Rawlins. Wyo.," she tells
those who ask where abe lives. That
is not strictly true. although it may
be when the convention Is over. Mr..
Osborne has made q fortune raising
sheep in Wyoming, but his bride has
never seen the city yet. Immediately
after their marriage, her husband be.
came SO busy with national politics
that he has not yet had time to take
her to the place where she will in the
future make her home.
Although Mrs. Osborne Is loyal to
the west. she really is a southern girl,
having been born and raised In Prince
ton, Ky. Slight, a pronounced brun-
cite. she is %vivacious and thoroughly
charming. 1t is no less a person than
William ]. Bryan that she blames for
b~etraying the secret OF her love affair
In her home town.
1--WE were keeping the news Of our
engagement secret" said Mrs. Os-
borne, "but-Mr. Osborne had told some
of his most intimate friends. Mr..
Bryan was going to pass through
Princeton one day while on one of his
lecture tours and he wrote to a man
he knew to find that girl John Os.
borne was going to marry and bring
her to the depot so that he could meet
her. That was the end OF our secret
in Princeton."-St Louis Post-Dis.
