villagers enact the
greatest drama in the world, in per
Torrance of a solemn vow made by
their ancestors 300 years ago. Some
poor fellow had brought the plague
10 the WALLACE and the villagers in
fear betook themselves to their
church and vowed that if the plague
should pass from their midst they
would devote themselves to a rep
resentation of the Passion. Only
once has the tenth year passed un-
honored; that was in 1870, when the
Franco-Prussian war drew away the
male players, but the play was only
delayed till the next year.
The play begins in May and runs
TIL the end of September. The per
formance commences at 500 a. m.
and lasts till 500 p. m, with an
interval of two hours. and the wealth
er is not allowed to interfere in any
way. 1t makes no difference as to
the costumes getting wet, as there
are two complete sets for each
player.
The Passion play sets forth the

of the acts is preceded by a tabieau.
illustrative of an Old Testament in
cfdent and pointing propheticaIly to
the events of the act. The II acts
are divided into three parts. The
first, from the entrance of Christ
into Jerusalem until the hour of his
being taken prisoner on the Mount
of Olives; the second, from then to
his condemnation by PLATE; and the
third, from the condemnation until
the glorious resurrection Of the
Lord; the whole ending with a tab
ieau showing the ascension.
Acted, as 1t is, on a huge stage,
with the background of the noun
tains, with the climax at the mystic
rious time Of evenfall, perhaps with
the thunder and lightning of nature
in the crucifixion scene, it is more
than the art of the stage; it is the
convincing expression of a great
and simple faith.
There are 700 persons in the play.
of whom 270 are children. The
speaking parts are given out by the
officials of the community and there
is no rivalry or jealousy shown.
There has always been a Lang in
the play, and this year Anton Lang
will repeat his Christus of 1900. 1t
is the highest ambition of the Ober-
ammergau youth. The honor Of en-
acting the Saviour is more than any

on Calvary would have been consid-

that destroy the good. But when he
burst the bands Of death asunder, he
gave the crowning proof OF his

A. NJ. Denman

The name of Judge Denman appears in our announcement column today as a candidate for reelection to the office of county and probate judge of Nevada county, subject to the action of the primary election.
 Judge Denman record in the office is entitled to the most care ful consideration, and is one of which he himself, as well as the people generally, look too with a great deal of pride.
 When he came into office, the county was in debt, and had been since its organization. TO day it doesn't owe dollar that it hasn't the money to pay. It's paper is worth a hundred cents on the dollar, and its affairs are in a most satisfactory condition.
 The next two years is really a more important term than any in the history of the county. Matters will come up to be dis posed of and handled that will require man of sound judgment and good business sense at the
