PASSION PLAY is ON
AT TOWN OF OBERAMMERGAU

Berlin, June 3O.-The Passion PLAY
at Oberammergau Is now in full
swing and the little village in the
Bavarian highlands which for nine
years in each decade differs little
from the other villages in that part
of the world is crowded to its capac-
ity with visitors and will be until the
cool days come in September
II is safe to say that every Am
erican tourist in Europe this summer
has Oberammergau in his itinerary.
So much has been written about
the place and the play that | do not
intend to bore you with any descrip-
ton but | had talk recently with
Fraulein Helene Lang, sister of the
man who plays the part of Christ, and
to whom is assigned the task of d ress-
ing the play and from her secured
some information which | think will
prove interesting
| found that she cuts out every
single garment worn in the play, and
that each garment is made by Bavar-
ian peasant women under her immed-
late supervision.
Fraulein Lang did not understand
much English, but she kindly took
me to some of the women who were
at work on the garments.
The greatest pains are taken to
make the decorations as brilliant as
possible. Every sham Is avoided.
Even the hair and bears are real. No
cheap, tinselly stuffs are used.
Only really good materials are en-
ployed, which cling to the body. fall
in graceful folds, and can stand sun
light and rain.
This naturally costs a great deal of
| money, since every ten years a part
of the costumes must be renewed. the
old ones having been used up 2or re-
| hearsals. cut up. or otherwise spoiled.
Fifteen TO twenty thousand marks
are given every ten years by the Pas
sion Play committee for this purpose.
The principal characters wear rich
wcolen stuffs. silks, and real gold
trimming.
The Jews and the Roman soldiers
| appear in these costumes. which ira
ditions of the middle ages have band
ed down to us, while warriors in shin
ing armor, eXecutioners. and menials
can satisfy the most eXacting taste.
) Whilst going from one house to
another Fraulein Lang gave some
figures relating to the play. She
told me, for instance. that one of the
| finest costumes had cost nearly 500
marks
| Asked as to the number of the
costumes needed, she replied. About
one thousand" so the Oberammergau
stage will have big cast Fraulein
Lang informed me further that this
year she had cut out more than six
hundred extra costumes for the play

WOMAN HERMIT
FEARED CITIES

John T. Sipple, son of Mrs. Sipple,
who died here a few days ago. has
arrived from Pueblo and will take
charge of settling up his mothers
affairs. Mr.. Sipple is connected with
the Colorado Fuel and Iron company
and is well-to-do.
He declares that his mother lived
the life of hermit of her own choice.
He had sent her money and clothing
at various times and urged her to go
and live with him but she declined
his offers. preferring her abode on
her land northwest of town where
she owned twenty acres valued at
about $4,000.
The remains will be buried here
temporarily and later removed to
Michigan and placed beside those of
her husband
She could not be persuaded to leave
the open country as she always ex-
pressed a fear of city life.
Mr. Sipple will probably be ap-
pointed administrator of the estate
and he is being represented by At
torney II. l.. McClintock.

BROOKS EXPLAINS
PRIZE FIGHT ORDER

New York. June 3O-In explain
ing his order that no fight news shall
be furnished by the Western Union
Telegraph company on July Fourth.
General Manager Brooks has given
out the following interviews as to the
position of the telegraph company:
The Western Union Telegraph
company is not in the business of
gathering news. That is function
of press associations and of news
papers. The telegraph company is a
transmitting agency, and as such will
confine its activity in this Reno affair
to the transmission of news dispa tch-
Sc gathered by other agencies and
filed with it for delivery to various
points.
The Western Union will endeavor
to place at the disposal of the public
and of the newspapers the very best
facilities for transmitting quickly and
accurately their dispatches. so that
people interested in the fight may
obtain desired information. large
number of wires are available for
such use at Reno, not only July =,
but at all other times. In addition,
such extra facilities will be provided
as to render convenient the duties of
the reporting agencies.
The regular transcontinental
wires normally passing through Reno
viii be cut at that point. By so do
ing messages can be sent simultan-
eously both east and west, thus bring
ing into service all transcontinental
routes. For example. eastbound mes
sages may 90 directly eastward from
keho; or, going westerly to San Fran
cisco bay. they can be circulated
around eastward again by the south
ern lines along the Southern Pacific
and the Santa Fe routes and also
northerly along the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern routes. This will
afford ample facilities for the trans
mission of large amount of tele-
graphic messages.
The various ticker services of the
Western Union Telegraph company
are for the repeating of quotations
| and matter of official record They
will not be used for the giving of
news descriptions of this prize fight. -

Tom Goodwin Dead.

Thomas Holland Goodwin. one
of Baxter's most highly respected
citizen, died at his home in this
city, on Saturday, Sept. 3, after a
lingering illness. Some time ago
Mr.. Goodwin was stricken with
paralysis, but recovered sufficient
ly to get up and attend to busi-
ness again. But he was also af-
flicted with heart trouble, and
from this he suffered a great
deal Always a hard worker, it
was next to impossible for him
to remain quiet, and he was very
active in business way. He was
interested in many enterprises,
and it was due to his energy
that much of the Baxter mining
camp was opened up to develop
ment. He was also interested in
the dopper mines of Arizona, and
farmed some, also.
Mr.. Goodwin was born in
Green Castle, Indiana, April 9
1853, and lived there a long time.
From there he moved west, and
lived at ottowa a long time. He
lived iu the far west and at Kan
sas City, and few years ago
came to this city, where he
bought a home and settled down.
He reared a family, and was a
good father and a kind husband.
Funeral services were held on
Tuesday forenoon of this week,
from the residence, 1nterment
was made in the Baxter cemetery.

September "a
That is the Closing Date Of the
COntest-YOune Ladies Must
Work Hard From Now
on If They Win.

September "a, at 4 o'clock in
the afternoon, will witness the
close of the contest. Some young
lady is going to win a fine piano
and some OF the other ladies are
going to win fine prizes. Every
dollar paid on subscription, re-
member, is good for five hundred
votes, and if subscription is
paid for as much as five years five
thousand votes are given for it.
A ten-year subscription means
twelve thousand five hundred
votes, and a twenty-year sub
scription is good for thirty
thousand votes. The young ladies
must remember that their friends
will not see them lose if they
make the proper effort themselves,
but if they just sit down and wait
for their friends to come forward
and help them win they will per-
haps be fooled. A little work will
make a big gain, and a big gain
is going to win.
Get busy, girls, and 60 after
the piano and other prizes. All of
the prizes are worth working for.
Every one is worth the value
placed uponit.
The last week of the contest
will of course witness a rush, but
do not wait for the rush. Go after
everybody now, and thus perhaps
you can avoid a big rush at the
wiudup, especially among your
friends. It is not necessary that
the vote be cast at once, but you
must turn in the money you re-
ceive and as we'll the names of
those from whom you received
it, so we can give the proper
credit. Hold the coupons back
until the last day, if you desire.
But, get busy.
