absolutely western In ideals. Mrs. Clark
delights in the giories of her adopted
state, and unlike many who get infatu-
ated with eastern life she becomes more
and more attached to her western home.
Senator and Mrs Clark leave Washington
for Evanston just as soon as Congress
adjourns and they generally remain the
entire summer. The climate is all that Is
needed after the low altitude Of Washing
ton, and the free. independence existence
is splendid tonic after the requirements
and limitations of Washington etiquette.
I'VE live some seven thousand feet
above the sea in Evanston said Mrs.
Clark, and so far as creature comforts
are needed the world contains no spot
which is so restful and SO exhilarating.
Our flowers are glorious and our sunsets
and mountain vistas lure travellers from
all over the globe. Ranch life In Wyo-
ming is still a fruitful topic and one
which is Of deep interest to all who visit
u.s. We are not in exactly the ranch
country. Evanston is a pretty little city
full of its own affairs and with many
extraneous pursuits. But ranch life of
fiction has passed away with the new
laws, which are not SO conducive of open
ranges. The cowboy. so dear to the
heart OF the young, must be STUDIED now
in those delightful border tales which are
so eagerly devoured, particularly in the
communities where actual knowledge Is
lacking.
But the raising of cattle and sheep is
the principal industry of the state. and
all that concerns it's development or its
social advancement is vital theme l
have found life so engrossing that though
for years 1 have wished to visit Europe
l have never been able to get from my
home. My ancestors were Scotch and
came from the immediate neighborhood
of the Walter Scott country. Indeed. my
fathers kindred, the Downs, lived at
Barnstaple. which is the closest estate to
Melrose Abbey, so identified with the life
and fame of the gentle novelist. My an
.cestors came almost a century ago TO
London, Ontario, and they were Scotch
on both sides of the house. 1t has been
my intention to visit all the old spots
hallowed in my family annals and to take
my daughters there. But after spending
the winter in Washington we all settle
down in Evanston and it seems impos-
sible to interest us in foreign excursions.
We are all SO delighted to get home, to
ride and visit and enjoy the varied beau
ties of the mountain country"
Senator and Mrs. Clark have three
daughters, the eldest of whom, Mrs.
Blythe, has spent part Of the winter
with her parents. She has a sturdy little
son called for his grandfather. Clarence
Clark Blythe. who has made the house
hold lively this winter. The second daugh-

of her time to her musical studies and
neither she nor her elder sisters ever

Wilson from the contest was brought
about, not by a popular demand for
his elimination, but by combina-
ton of the corporate interests of this
state who seek to dominate it's poll
tics. The move was made to attempt
to defeat Miles Poindexter. 1t in it
self is an admission of the strength
of Mr.. Poindexter
Never in the history of this state
was the issue more plain and direct.
On one side are two corporation can
didates, on the other a man of the
people, representing the principles of
Theodore Roosevelt. He represents
not only the ideals of Roosevelt but
the determination of the American
people to make congress responsive
to public demands. From the stand
point of the common man, there is
every reason why Poindexter should
win.

R. O." Everybody will know what
that means, at least for this week,
for there is no doubt that capacity
will be the rule so long as the Mack
Swain company plays here.
The play last night was melodra-
matte, as the title indicates, THE
Side Walks of New York 1t was
not boisterous, however, and the act
ing was natural. Melodrama is &C
ceptable if stage managers would
use some control over the players.
The average actor seems to think,
the moment the word melOdrama is
used, that he must forthwith let out
a horrible shrek, tear his hair, pull
out gun and proceed to kill every
body in sight. The audience is gen.
orally the chief sufferer.
The Swain company is one Of the
best balanced which have been seen
in this city even among the highest
class travelling shows. Cora King
Swain is an emotional actress who
will shine as a star among the very
best talent on the stage. She knows
the value of reserve, being natural,
modest and subdued in the most of
her lines but always prepared with
tremendous force to rise with great
power and make the most of a eli

Mack Swain could make the show
a big winner even if he were not so
splendidly supported. AS charac-
ter man he is simply inimitable. For
minutes at time last night he kept
the audience in a tempest of roaring
laughter, and was not saying a word
Just acting out the part of full
fledged gawk. 1t was rich. Here
again self control was in evidence.
The temptation of the funny man is
to overdo things and degenerate into
the silly Mr. Swain always knows
what he is doing and saying. Therein
is the difference between the artist
and the butcher
1t is too often the habit of theatre
cal managers to secure one or two
strong stars and fill up the balance
of the salary list with figure heads.
The heads generally correspond to
the figures which appear in the sal
airy list. The salary roll of the
Swain company has not been given
to the press, but if it is not heavy
one it should be. The support is eX-
ceptionally strong. Oral Humph-
reys as leading man and Norman
Fisher as heavy are actors in the
fullest and best meaning of that
much abused word. Miss 10 Taylor
and Miss Fisher were also favorites.
All the other members were above
criticism, which is saying great deal
when you are referring to a roper
toire company.
