A Dog and a Song.

During one of the last birthday cele-
brations of the poet Whittier he was
visited by celebrated oratorlo singer.
The lady was asked to sing, and, seat
ing herself at the piano, she began the
beautiful ballad robin Adair" She
had hardly begun before Mr.. Whit

seating himself by her side, watched
her as If fascinated, listening with a

"He also is Robin Adair." The dog,

song. From that moment during the
lady's visit he was her devoted attend

was indoors and accompanied her

courtship In China.

A curious custom prevails at Huay-
ninghsien, in Kwangsi. On the If
teenth day of the first month in each
year all the young ladies and gentle
men take a walk to the Yenyen noun
tain. Each damsel carries little box,
which she deposits at the foot Of the
hill. Any young gentleman desirous Of
entering the bonds of matrimony may
select one of the boxes and take it
away with him, whereupon the fair
owner of the box makes herself
known, and an acquaintanceship is
thus formed. Ill assorted matches are
not likely to occur, as this custom is
observed only among the well to do
classes of society.

BIG AUDIENCE DELIGHTED
WITH ''W|LDF|RE" LAST NIGHT

acters was Matt Donivan the trainer.
Doniyan was most excellent and no.
thing more need be said. He lived
and acted well a part that requires
more than stage mouthing to make
the character attractive.
Roland Edwards took the character
of John Garrison. Mr.. Garrison was
a well appearing tailor's model and
that was all. Garrison should have
himself taught that, no man on or off
the stage ever attempted to speak in
the stilted manner he attempted last
night. 1t was positively annoying to
his audience and nonsensical to i'm
agine that a human being talked as if
he had to set a pace in the amount
of words that could be said in a short
space of time.
Altogether "Wildfire'' was not half
bad and If Miss Hall will cut out her
fiery red costumes with the flarlng
skirts and Mr.. Edwards will take a
few lessons in enunciation, the piece
may be made most wholesome. and
enjoyable to the average theatre
goer, If not the critic.

"Wildfire," the great racing COM
edy, in which Lillian Russell starred
with such unalloyed success for sew
eral years, was presented at the Park
opera house last night, in generally
successful manner, with Pauline Hall
and VIII Archie in the stellar roles.
Pauline Hall was not particularly
attractive in the character of Mrs.
Henrietta harrington. While the
manner of her acting was not so OBJ
jectionable, her costumes seemed to
have been selected at least two of
them, to make her appear as out
landish as she possibly could. Pau
line Hall never was soft spoken, easy
manner or graciously charming in
any role in which she has been cast,
which has come under the observa-
tion of the writer, but she could tone
down her personal appearance and
the general ensemble of her work to
make it more pleasing to her audi
ence.
Perhaps If there was any grace to
any spoken word of the dialogue. it
was at that moment when she was
called upon to give Rastus, the col
ored jockey an intimation of low
Wildfire should be ridden, were she,
Mrs harrington, the owner OF the
Kentucky bred animal. This was a
delightful little speech and 1t COM
PEELED a hearty response from her
audience.
VIII Archie, as the diminutve
stable boy was irresistibly funny, al
though suffering from very bad
cold. Archie won his spurs as a
comedian of more than local note,
when he starred with Lillian Russell
and he did not fail to put ginger into
every speech he made. Archie is a
character on and off the stage and

speeches and queer antics. especially

Much comment has been current
lately in regard to baseball in Grand
Junction the coming year.
Last year we enjoyed the best sea-
son In the history of the city and this
year. ii the plans of prominent fans
do not miscarry, we will have sea-
son of baseball that will surpass even
the excellent record set the past sea-
son.
Messrs. Jas. r. Lancaster and Clar-
ence billiard, two of the city's most
loyal fans are the prime movers in
working up an interest among the
local fans this year. These gentlemen
have already made formal applica-
ton to the incorporators of the State
league for commission for team
in Grand Junction. If the reques. is
granted, Grand Junction will enter
the league, and a meeting of the fans
will be called at an early date for the
purpose of forming stock company
for the promotion of the best team
which ever represented Grand juno

year The Sentinel made the assertion
that the only successful way of man
aging a ball club in this city was to
form a stock company. This sugges-
tion did not meet with the approval
of the local management but later in
the season it was clearly proven that
this was the only course to have been
followed

be strong for a fast team for this city

the two best men to push the move

so much the previous year
