THE PASSION PLAY OR
The LIFE OF CHRIST

This production is of a religious
character. To the church we must 70
for the origin Of the drama. In the
middle ages when form became symbol
zeal, all the wisest said dramatic
beginnings were nurtured In the early
church the, Bible stories were made
realistic. These plays commo My
known as Morality, Miracle, Mystery or
Passion Plays are of the past. You will
witness one of the; best known of all
the productions of the stage and vet one
about which less is known than of any
other. = The Passion Play is known in
every land, In every nook and corner
in the world. 1t is the privilege of few
to witness the original production of
the Passion Play at, Oberammergan and
SO we have secured at great cost and as
a special favor at this time reproduc-
ton after Pathe in artistically colored
effects. PFC
1t is in remote Bavarian valley that
the last of all these dramas still exists.
During the summer months of every
decade it is witnessed every Sunday
and Monday by about q quarter of a
million people. Five hundred years
ago some drama of the life of Christ
was performed at the Same place.
About $50 years ago plague was
raging in Bavaria and in the little
secluded mountain village of Oberam-
morgan hundred people had persisted.
Accordingly the terrified survivors
made a VOW that if their town were
spared all further ravages of the disease
they would thereafter every ten years,
portray in a dramatic form for the
instruction of mankind the story of
Christ's life and sufferings. ..-
Apparently this VOW was heard, for
the plague at once abated and the vii
layers true to their promise have every
ten years for nearly 800 years past, por-
trayed the life of Christ in this dramatic
way. The costumes, makeup, attitude,
bearing and general character of each
scene is in imitation of old paintings
and engravings and very like the works
OF the masters. When you look upon
the passing scenes on the serene you
are witnessing the reproductions of the
masterpieces of art posed for by the old
time citizens of Oberammergan. The
seven hundred actors are poorly paid,
as the majority of the money received
goes into the improvement of the theatre
church and village endowment. Large
sums of money are repeatedly offered by
European and American players fol-
their services in foreign lands, but they
have repeatedly declined the offer, their
purpose being not mercenary gain but
religious duty. ,....-, ........
How simple peasants can understand
and represent with such skill such q
stupendous subject as the Passion Play,
is mystery to all who attend
In the rendition of the play tableau
of Old Testament characters and events
is introduced before each important
scene to symbolic and typify what is
to follow.
The next production of the Passion
Play at Oberammergan will be in 1910
from May to October. Hither party
of fifty people from Elko have already
arranged to make a pilgrimage
Those familiar with the Bible history
will recognize the Biblical characters
and events as they are portrayed in the
hand-colored representation at the mov-
ing picture show, next Friday and Sat
urday nights.

Jasper's Great Fire.

The Carthage Press, 10 it's "Ten
Years Ago" column chronicled last Fri.
day ,Nov.27, the decennial OF the biggest
fire 10 Jssper's, history when s business
houses on the north side OF Grand aven-
no We're burned, putting eight business
firms and five families out Of habita-
ticn, jasper has fully recovered from
the blow she received at that time,
however, and every building that burn
ed has been replaced by better one,
except one, which stood on the lot be-
tween the present Campbell millinery
store and the Wells building.
The fire had source OF origin almost
az unique as that OF the great Chicago
fire, which started from lantern that
was kicked ovet by Mrs. Casey's COW.
A man by the name Of Lowe, who ran
pool hail, bad dog, which he tied to
tho leg Of his stove. In the wee small
hours the dog ierked the leg out from
under the stove, and the fire was on.
Unlike the Casey bovine, the dog did
not escape from the confsgration he
started, but persisted miserably therein.
and his was the only life lost OF any
kind atteast Of which We have know
ledge.

Former Governor Adams is Elected
 National Commfffeeman

National Cemnsifteeman.
 Glenwood Springs. Col, June ie.- When the State Democratic convention met here today in its second session. former Governor Adams presented the report of the Committed on Resolu- tions. It is in part as follows:
 The Congress whose recent adjourn too hostile to the Presidents recom-. mendations to adopt them. and too cowardly to close its session without the pretense of legislation. has delib- erately postponed all measures of per- manent importance until after the next election after enacting so-called emergency law, the operation of which brings but small relief while giving value to a line of securities as the ba- sis for currency Issue.
 The party whose shibboleth of sound money destroyed half the me- rsllic money of the nation cannot de- fend its last act and say that monetary legislation on any other basis than the gag rule of the Speaker and the de- mand of the great financial interests of the country.
 The platform concludes with in- structions for William J. Bryan.
 John T. Barnett of Ouray. offered a short substitute recommending that national issues be left to the Denver convention and -instructing for Bryan. Mayor speer spoke in favor of the sub stitute.
 The majority report was adopted by an almost unanimous vote.
 Former Governor Adams was elected National Committeeman.
 A resolution was adopted providing a method for harmonizing the factions in Denver at the primaries next fall.
