AN ARTISTIC PERFORMANCE.

Patrons OF the theatre who find
greatest satisfaction In the art OF the
actor, accepting the subject Of treat
ment as a secondary consideration,
need never feel hesitancy in going to
see George Arlies. For several years
previous to his American coming as a
member of Mrs Pat CampbelPs COM
pany he held high place in histrionic
England Few native Briton perform
ers Of the school represented by Ar.
Hiss have gained such firm and per-
manent footing IN America as he. His
versatility has been established in the
variety OF characters he has success
fully interpreted since his American
introduction nine years ago. He has
been with US since constantly, but
rarely had gotten beyond the larger
~enters. His first visit to Rock Island
as last evening at the Illinois, his
Offering of "Septimus,' a dramat1za-
ton of William ]. Locke's novel of
the same title, attracting a large and
critical audience. The stage version
differs materially from the noveliza-
ton, chiefly in that Emmy is empha-
sized at the sacrifice of Fora. Emmy
is the heroine of the play. One in
stantly becomes a sympathizer with
Emmy in her betrayal by a matinee
idol-actor. by whom; in her youth and
day-dreamS, she was carried away,
only to be cast aside at a time when
her honor was the price OF disappoint-
ment. The pity is that il is necessary
to make such a sacrifice for the sake
OF a plot While the moral is force
fully put, yet the theme is one that
sentiment apparently is moving latter
day dramatists to avoid in the con-
struction of stage presentations. But
it is the consummate art of Arliss
that will make the play of "Septimus"
whatever niche it may achieve N
present-day stage history. He breathes
into the character of the inventor a
sweetness and simplicity and purity
that are uplifting, though one can't
help but lose patience at the indiffer-
ence and seeming lack of understand
ing of a man. Miss Emily Stevens IS

niece of Minnie Madden Fiske, and

ture and mannerism. Miss Stevens.
yet a mere strip of a girl. displays
powers of expression and reserve that
would do credit to one of longer ex-
perience and training, though there
are few places in the performance
where she fails to restrain herself,
and gives way to outbursts of rant
that show that she is still in the pro-
cess of seasoning. Still she is a won
derful young woman, and doubtless
will be heard from higher I'D as she
natures. The cast, as a whole, was
splendidly balanced, Nina Lyn as Fora
Middlemist furnishing the most finish
ed bit of acting aside from that of the
two principal characters. The play
was exquisitely staged. The fine audi
ence is still another Illustration that
the people of Rock Island know the
good things in the theatrical line, and
will patronize the better class of at

Elko and the Jarbidge District

For the past few weeks news items
and various stories have been drifting
into our town in regard to wonderful
strikes and discoveries made in Jarbidge
and as II result no little excitement has
been occasioned thereby.
A recent copy of the Twin Falls
News printed n number of stories about
this district and the merchants and
other people of that town have already
begun to boost for Twin Falls as the
only accessible point of entry into Jar
bidge, in order to secure for themselves
the business of outfitting those who
will undoubtedly rush in there during
the coming spring season.
AS matter of fact though Twin Falls
is slightly nearer to Jarbidge than El1o,
the road from Twin Falls lacks about
twelve miles of entering Jarbidge; and
the country through which the same
would have to be built is so rough as to
make it almost impossible or entirely
too expensive to huild. The road from
Elko lacks only about three miles, and
a bridge which will be necessary to
cross the Bruneau river. This bridge
can be easily constructed before the
spring freshets commence; and the
remaining three miles can readily he
traversed by pack horses until such
time rs would warrant the expenditure
of building road which because of the
nature of the country would cost con-
siderably more than s., 200 to construct
In letters recently received by several
prominent Elko merchants, n party
well known here wrote that Twin Falls
would get ahead of us and get all the
trade that usually comes with the rush
to new mining camp; and unless Elko
woke up and started at once to boost
and hustle for itself Twin Falls would
win out without shadow of doubt.
Get together men Put your
shoulders to the wheel. Don't let Elko
take back seat to Twin Falls or any
other town. If we stand still we are
going backward and Eiko cannot afford
to do that. Boost for Elko for all You
WV wi Sbu huO"
that Elko is the only accessible point of
entry to Jarbidge. Get enthusiasm
into you right now, and keep on
whooping it up until we have what
belongs to us,
From runors received we understand
that Twin Falls has already secured
the mail route into Jarbidg. That
belongs to Elko too and we must have
it. The mail can more easily be de-
livered to Jarbidge by way of Elko
than by the Twin Falls route and it is
our duty to see that our representatives
take steps to have the change in the
mail route made just as soon as it can
possibly be brought about.
In conclusion we again appeal to the
people of Elko to show their loyalty to
their town by boosting, hustling and
working all the time from now on to
accomplish the result which cannot but
he an immense benefit to every man,
woman and child in our town.
