BALL SEASON OPENS
WITH A GOOD GAME
Grants Pass Defeats jacksonville
In First Go me by q Score
of 4 to }.

The base ball season formally
opened in Grsnts Pass last Sunday
with a game between the local team
and the Jacksonville nine. The locals
we're victorious by score OF a to 3.
The score is thoroughly indicative OF
the fact that it was an extraordinarily
good game for an opener. The visitors
were the frss TO score, making one
run in the third inning while the
home nine drew nothing better than
a goose egg up to the fifth when they
decked the score sheet with one scar.
Bot as will be seen by the score by
innings below, it was anybody's game
up to tho last. Jarvis went into the
box and did excellent work up to the
sixth when his arm gave out and he
was relieved by Phelps. Capt. Setter
picked them off from behind the bat in
regulation style, and he expressed
himself as we'll pleased with the open
ing game.
Judging from the start off the boys
are looking for 40 uusually interest
ing ball season this year. Tue Jack
sonville boys have good team aud ex
pect to play out the season. The nex'
game will be between Grants Pass ant
Medford at Medford next Sunday
1t was originally planned to play thii
game on the local diamond but the
plan was subsequently, changed ant

"Zira" and "Sham. z"

Perhaps what is destined to become
the most permanent and lasting of the
recent New York successes among the
dramas lately produced is "Zira "
which Will be the Offering at the salt
Lake theatre next Monday at a spe-
cial matinee and night. This piece was
written by Henry Miller and j. Hart
ley Manners, and is based on Incl
dents devised by Will1ie Collins in his
celebrated novel The New Magda-
len" Florence Roberts, who is using
the play as a vehicle for her annual
starring tour, viii enact the role of
Hester Trent, the part played by Miss
Anglin in the original run of the
piece at the Princess theatre in New
York, and which extended over 800
nights. 1t is said that this character
gives Miss Roberts scope for the
finest, trueSt and most moving pOr-
trayals of emotional acting that has
been seen in this country for many a
day
The play itself has scored heavily as
a successful drama, as it tells a thrill
ing, interesting and powerful story
that tugs in no uncertain manner at
the heartstrings. Each line has been
penned with a mastery hand, and sit
uations and climaXes have been deft-
ly interviewer and cleverly construct
ed. 1t is a play of life stripped of its
frivolities and deceits, while the hu-
man emotions are stripped bare. yet in
such a delicate and honest manner as

not to offend or to Shock the sensibili-
ties.
The story of the play centers about
the struggles of Hester Trent to win
her right TO forget her past, and look
the world in the face without fear or
asking favor. Yielding to a tempta
tatiOn, she assumes the name and
place of another woman, believing
that this deception will bring her the
happiness for which she is fighting
and yearning. Later the woman whose
name she uSurps confronts her and
claims her right. Much OF the play
concerns the battle between these two
women and the finding of a final hap
Diness through the love of a strong
cnd noble man. Part of the play is To-
Gated in South Africa, While the re-
mainder takes place in fashionable
London.
Miss Roberts has been surrounded
by a cleverly selected cast of players,
and the production has been hand
SOmely mounted.
Sham" which was recently pro-
duced here by Miss Roberts, will be
repeated at a special matinee Tues
day, and at the evening performance.

"The Child of the Regiment"

! Local play-gOers who have witnessed
! productions of Charles E. Blaney's two
great military plays, Across the Pa
cific" and THE Boy Behind the Cum
win hear with pleasure the announce
ment that at the Grand next week
Theodore Lorch and his company of
players will present Mr.. Blaney's latest
play along military lines, THE Child
of the Regiment" a piece that critics
have been unanimous in declaring
worthy companion to these military
plays mentioned above. "A Child of
the Regiment is essentially a scenic
play. and special scenery has been con-
structed for every act Of~the forth
coming production at the Grand. The
piece win serve to introduce Mr.. Torch
in the character of. Private Tom Had
don, a part that will afford him an ex-
cellent opportunity for work he is well
fitted for. Miss Cecil Fay will have
the principal feminine role, that of
Little Major. the pet of the Fifty
eighth cavalry, L. S. A. The members
of Mr.. LOrch's company have been cast
for the various parts in the production
with special care as to their fitness for
the various roles and a splendid pre-
sentation of the thrilling drama may
be expected.
The story of the play takes place at
fOrl LOOKOUT, Nortn DAKOTA, curing
the long, dreary winter months, when
the souls of both men and beast are
tried by the terrible blizzards that
come up so suddenly, and called by the
Indians ''the white death" Through
the aid of electricity, Mr.. Blaney shows
the audience the most realistic snow
storm sweeping across Devils pass in
StreakS and drifts, the duh moan and
shrek of the winds as they scurry
hither and thither, searching out their
prey, and the final filling up of the
gorge, making it utterly impossible to
all, making it the grandest of stage
pictures and the height of mastery in
stagecraft.

"Dream City"

When a Weber production is an
nOunced at a playhouse il is always a
fOregone conclusion that an attraction
far from the ordinary is about to hold
the boards, which is evidently the
particular case in this instance, when
Joe Webers latest and most preten-
tiOus effort, Dream City" comes to
the Salt Lake theatre next Wednesday
and Thursday nights, with special
matinee on Thursday
Dream City" is from the pen of
that clever and versatile author and
librettist, Edgar Smith, while the mu-
sic is considered to be Victor Her
berts masterwork.
The production on tour this season
is the one intact that ran all last sea-
son at the Weber theatre, New York
City, and embraces the same gorgeous
scenic and stage effects. elaborate and
dazzling costumes. to say nothing of
the famous chorus of Weber beauties
As the funny and eccentric German
comedian, who is lulled into a dream
Of the greatness and future of MS
Long Island farm through the volu-
blilty of smooth-tongued real es-

than fortunate in finding a counter
part and worthy successor i'm that
clever and inimitable comedian, Little
Chip. Little Chips work and versa
tility in The Babes in ToyIand,
Wonderland" and other big produc-
tions is too well known to need further
comment. save it to say that in
Dream City" he has succeeded in
making the hit of his career.
The role of Nancy. the German
farmers daughter, is in the capable
hands of that finished and magnets,
little coincidence, Mary Marble who
is also scoring the success Of her STAGE
ambition and winning fresh IaureIs
daily through her painstaking and en-
ergetic work. All the other charar-
ters in the long cast are equally wei
selected. with much care as t. their
fitness and ability for a production Of
this character and magnitude.

scenes royal palaces and gardens in

proved upon as vehicle for elaborate

This is something decidedly new and

Then comes Kara, who is billed as
the originator of modern Juggling. We
have jugglers and Juggling, but it is
claimed for this act that it is the model
from which all the other modern Jug
Cling acts have been patterned.
Something entirely novel and unique
is promised by Mr.. and Mrs. Franklin
Colby, who present their own electrical,
musical, comedy black-art act, in
which they introduce a number of nov

commended as occupying a place on the

nothing more pleasing has. been there
