NEW BILL AT MISSION.

One of the most remarkable aero
batic acts ever seen here VIII be fea-
ture of the bill which will open at the
Mission theatre for week, with a
matinee this afternoon The press OF
every city in which this act has been
presented in Europe and the United
States unite in saying that nothing like
the act which. is offered by the Schia-
yony troupe has ever been seen be-
fore This troupe is composed of four
men and two women, and every mem
Der is an artist in his or her work
Another number of the bill which
comes highly recommended is the lit
tie comedy entitled The VII
lage Lookup, which is presented by
Kelly and Wentworth. While there
is plenty of comedy in the act, there
is that touch of human nature that
never fails to hold the close atten-
ton IF the audience from start to fin
iSh- 1t is safe TO say that every ath-
lete in Salt Lake will want to see

jumper of the world. who is making
his first appearance in vaudeville. He
promises an act entirely different from
anything in this line ever before seen
in this city. A merry melange entitled

the offering OF Miller and Russell.

character singer, scarcely needs an in

MILANEsE MINSTREL HIT.

Deiro and Porcini, the Milanese min
strels playing at the Orpheum, Illus
trate the advancement of vaudeville
within the past few years. Porcini
is one of the best operate singers
in Italy. while Deiro is a master of the
accordion, an instrument which in his
hands becomes instinct with life
and melody. At the great Milan eX-
position Deiro was awarded the gold
medal over all contestants The in
Strument he uses was specially made
for him according to a design ne pre-
pared. On one side ii has a regular
organ keyboard, and on the other are
ninety-siX keys, all of which he uses
in his playing. The accordion cost
more than $500. The duo have worked
out an act that has proven one of the
most pleasing features of the season
in the Salt Lake house. A few years
ago no vaudeville houses would have
been able to pay a salary sufficient
to induce either one of these artists
to appear. So popular and profitable
has vaudeville become that now IL is
possible to include both in one act
lasting about a quarter OF an hour.

Everywhere on the streets, between l

necks and strained their eyes in the
bright sunlight to see what they be-
lieved to be Halley's comet.
No matter from what position or an

1t was no place for weak eyes, as
the sun was not many degrees off
from the spot where the star shone.
But who would not try il again at
the very next corner?
1t was laughable to hear the differ

many saw nothing but a wide expanse
of blue sky.
According to Professor James L. Glib
son, teacher Of astronomy at the Uni

comet, but the planet Venus, that was
visible in the midday sky. Providing
the sky is clear today, Venus may be
seen again.

Prolonged Cold Spell Prevents Dig

Sslem-From $5, 900 to 81, 900 worth
Of potatoes have been frozen in the
ground in the vicinity of Salem since
the recent prolonged cold spell began.
Because of peculiar weather eond
tions it has been impossible to dig the
potatoes this fall and probably more
than half of the crop still remains in
the ground and now the report comes
from different localities that the pota-
tres in the ground have frozen. The
earth in some districts is frozen to a
depth of FIVE inches.
The early fall began with heavy
rains and the farmers were unable to
take care of the potato crop. Follow
ing the continued rains came the cold
spell, increasing in severity until the
damage has followed. Some growers
say that part of their crop that was
dug was ruined while others are keeping
fires in their potato houses all in the
effort to save the crop that was gath
cred.
Potatoes are selling in Salem at 80
cents bushel, but in view of the dam
age done growers confidently expect to
get sl.25 before the new crop comes

Big Project m Baker County Only
Waits for Settled Weather.

Baker City-With the opening of
spring work will begin on the two res
ervoirs planned by the Powder Valley
Irrigation company, the main reservoir
being situated in the Thief river val
ley, located n,,the old Fisk and Gilbert
ranches, seven miles east of North
Powder and 20 miles north Of Baker
City. This reservoir will conserve Co.
600 acre feet of water. The other res
ervoir, is to be situated about 80 miles
northwest of Baker City, at the half
way house on the Union stage line,
near Sanger, and will conserve about
"a, 1000 acre feet of water.
When completed, the entire system
will irrigate about 60, 900 acres of
land, extending from the Miles bridge
east to what is known as Table rock,
or five miles east of Goose creek, on
both sides of Powder river, covering
strip of fine land about 80 miles wide.
The immensity of this irrigation
scheme can hardly be realized, but the
difference in the amount of hay, grain
of all kinds, fruit and what not, that
will be produced on these broad acres
in the very near future, will tell the
tale in the farmers bank accounts.
