Love and Intrigue
Romance and Song
Atmosphere Of Old Spain Pervades
Carmen At Opera House
Toni Jht.

Carmen in song or dialogue, opera
or play, is a story of love and the
irresistible fascination of a woman
whose very fickleness seems her
charm-her weakness her strength.
1t is a question which is the most
absorbing, the opera or the drama.
1t is certain that the play tells the
story to better advantage to the
average auditor. Love and intrigue,
poetry and passion, together with
the beautiful picturesque Spanish
costumes, will bring us in close
touch with the atmosphere and Gus
tones of old 81 ain, the land OF ro-
nance and mu sic, beautiful dark
eyed senoritas. Miss Tucker has
travelled in old Mexico and made a
study of Carmen from life, and
those who know her best can readily
understand that in a role like Car
men. full of fire, passion and emotion
she will be at her best.
Every member of the cast will also
have an opportunity for good and un-
usual work. The Iart of Jose, who
deserts from tie army and becomes
| smuggler for love of Carmen, Is
a romantic and beautiful character.
Lucas Mendey, the toreador (bull
'ighter) dashing and brilliant, appeal
to every woman In the audience,
and while they wish that Carmen
would remain tue to Jose they are
all in sympathy with the toreador.
No sweeter character than Dolores
was ever put into a play. The CO.
quettish Anita, revengeful Therese,
the gay young lieutenant Sarceda,
the dashing young soldier D'Alia
and the smuggl RS and gypsies, all
help to make up a beautiful picture
not easily forgotten. This beautiful
play will be for one night only, sat.

FIRST AMERICAN LITERARY MAN
TOLD OF THE BEAUTIES OF
WALLoWA.

In connection with the article on
the origin of the name Wallowa, pub
lished in the last issue of this paper,
the following let or in the La
Grande Star will be of interest:
Editor Morning Star: With every
other eastern Oregonian l am very
greatly interested in anything per-
tanning to the early history of the
region in whi h we live; a region 50
intensely interesting that it has we'll
nigh become the cynosure of all eyes,
The article appe lring in the Sunday
Morning Star on the origin OF the
name Wallowa Is the one to which l
have special refer nee.
The reader OF Washington Irv-
ing's classic American sketches has
not failed to notice what that master
In the art Of description has to say
of this enchanted realm in his volume
entitled Adventures of Captain
Bonneville An epitome of the story
Is this: Captain Bonneville was 60
ing westward to Fort "Wallah-Wal-
lah," having followed the Port Neuf
from old Fort Hall (now Pocate!o)
and down the Snake to the mou.h of
Gun (now Powder) river, thera,
thinking nearer way possible, he
left the main stream of the Saa :.
and came up Gun river to the Grande
Ronde valley. He"e are his words:
AT length pl nglng and tossing
through succession of snowdri Is,
they reached valley known among
trappers as the Grand Rond,' wht,l
they found entirely free from snow;
this is beautiful valley about 20
miles long and or broad; a bright
cold stream called the Fourche de
Glace or Ice river runs through it.
It's sheltered situation emb Jsomed
In the mountains renders 1t good pas
turing ground in the winter time;
alter passing the night in the val
ley the travellers In the morning
scaled the neighto ing hills, to look
for more eligible route than ths
one on which they had so unluckily
fallen; and, after much reconnoit-
| ering, determined to make their way
once more to the (Snake) river"
Here they were almost in sight of
Walla Walla, but returned to the in
hospitable Snake.
Well reaching the great river,
they had a terrible winter Of it. On
they went, GRO 'sing and recrosslng
the river. killing their horses to
make boats of their skins, till at last
they climbed out and over into the
lmmaha (now Imnaha) country and
on over to the Grande Ronde river.
1t seemed that the trappers had reck-
oned that the stream formed by the
Joining Of the Wallowa and the
Fourche de Gla took the name OF
the former, for they called 1t the
Way-lea4way.

PASTOR CLIMBS TO
EAGLE CAP SUMMIT
REV. SAMUEL HARRIS MAKES
JOURNEY TO MOUNTAINS
ALONE FROM THIS CITY.

Rev. Samuel Harris, pastor of the
Enterprise Presbyterian church, with
out companion or guide except his
past experience in mountain climbing
went up Hurricane canyon, Monday,
and Tuesday crossed the saddle and
B. c.. basin and made the ascent to
the summit of Eagle Cap, the famed
giant of the Powder River mountains
and the highest peak in Eastern
Oregon.
Mr.. Harris returned to Enterprise
Wednesday none the worse of his Az
mile mountain journey and full OF
satisfaction at having scaled the
highest and most noted mountain
peak between the Rockies and Cas-
cades. He also resolved to his salts
faction several disputed points. Mr..
Harris Is convinced there are no
glaciers around Eagle Cap. On the
north side is an immense snow bank
and the sun shining on the center of
that gives a glacier like appearance
to one on top of the FOUNTAINS
around Wallowa Lake.
Mr.. Harris says Marble Mountain
In Hurricane Canyon Is by far the
most beautiful of all the sights up
the canyon. When the saddle is
crossed and you behold the wonder
full basin of lakes, with their velvety
frame of green, the great snow banks
toppling into their edge, and all
flanked and surrounded by majestic
peaks, the scene Is beautiful beyond
description, Mr.. Harris counted II
lakes and he says each one Is a
gem with Its own individual beauty
or characteristic.
Mr.. Harris crossed the basin to the
foot of the peak, then turned to the
right (west) and made the ascent
from that direction. The climb is
not hazardous and not especially
difficult, calling, at the most, for onl.
plenty of muscle.
Under cairn of stone on the
very summit, he found pickle
bottle, in which written on cards and
plainly visible through the glass
were these memoranda;

Second aneroid reading, 10:45 a.

If the foregoing readings are ap-
proximately correct, they should set
at rest the old dispute of Eagle Cap
height. The last reading was made
just six days be ore Mr.. Harris was
at the summit.
Rev. Harris Is no novice at noun
tain climbing. He has explored the
loftiest peaks of the Alps and knows
glacier when he meets one. The
unattended trip up the canyon and
ascent of the peak were more of a
pleasure than a hardship to him and
the journey was made all the more
pleasant by kindly hospitality offer
ed by the heriers at the severa
sheep camps he came upon. He die
not see wild animal on the trip.

Years of treatment failed to effect a

charged freely, and gave me much
pain. The drain on my system had
been so great I was completely worn
out, easily became tired, and did not
have much appetite. My neck was so
sore and swollen. could hardly turn
