DR.. MAY TO LECTURE.

DR.. Eugene May Of Washington, d.
c., will deliver a series Of lectures at
the M. E church April II, IL, 13, IA,
and Is. DR.. May is a noted lecturer,
author, orator and traveller, having
been in every nook and corner Of the
world and has o international fame
as an explorer. Thoroughly educated,
long a teacher OF elocution, many
years a chatauqua superintendent, a
graduate Of the first class in the G. l..
S. c., a trained thinker and scholar, he
is amply qualified for the great work
of the platform. He was one of the
first bicyclers to tour the Yellowstone
upon a wheel. He was the last indie
pendent traveller to return from Cuba,
just previous to our war with Spain,
which gave him great prominence at
the time and drew him to the White
House in consultation with President
Mckinley. DR.. May has been lectur-
ing for fifteen years. His success has
been marked and remarkable. He is
often recalled, to repeat the same lee
ture the second, third, fourth and even
the fifth time. He is a tried lecturer,
in the prime of life. He does not pose
as a funny man, yet spices every lee
ture with wit and humor, rendering it
easy and pleasant for all to listen.

ISLE OF SPICE."

With fresh scenery, faces, costumes,
electrical and stage effects, the Isle of
Spice" B. C. Whitney's piquant must
cal mixture, to the opera house
for one night, Thursday, March 31st.
1t is only a mythical isle, that is sup
posed to lie in the Sea of Japan, some
where between Sakhalin and FUrmosa,
but it is always summer there, always
merry and t%uneful, and the inhabitants
live their lives as do other folks;
have their love affairs, their joys, their
sorrows, and make their little laws.
Hence the plot of the play, King Bonn
popka takes unto himself a wife every
seven years. These wives, according
to a decree of the king and his chief
advisors, Lord Kashon, the Court
Treasurer, and his brother, Lord Kon-
ner, have to undergo a period of train
ing in the Tomb of Silence for seven
years. At the end of this time, she is
supposed to know enough to- hold her
tongue, SO she is released and married
to the king. Teresa, the hereditary
owner Of n half the spice fields in
the kingdom, has been educated in
America and while there meets a
young officer Of the U. 8. marines,
Lieutenant Katchall, and there is a
mutual love affair. Upon her return
to- her native isle, Teresa is selected
by the king for his next wife. Teresa,
Of course, objects strenuously to the
Tomb" and to the king. Kashon and
Konner insist that Teresa go to the
tomb, in order to conform to the law,
place Asbena, their ally, on the throne.
The king endeavors to have the tomb"
law set aside. This is opposed by
Kashon and Konner, who are planning
to get Teresa put away for seven
years, so as to get possession Of her
rich spicefields. This is the condition
of affairs when Lieut.. Katchall lands
on the Island with a detachment of
Marines from the U. S. gunboat Roose-
Welt. Katchall meets Teresa, learns
the state of things, and to prevent the
marriage places the island under the
flag Of the United States. Two mar
ines, Mackinaw and O'Grady, are sent
UP in a balloon for practice. the balloon
lands on the island e the kings
palace, and the occupants are taken
for messengers from the sun. These
men are introduced to the king as a
magician and an astrologer. The king
commands the astrologer to produce
money for him, and on his failure to
do so, they are both sent to the Tomb
of Silence as a substitute for Teresa,
and then the king orders preparations
for his wedding.
The lieutenant trains the guns of
his warship on the kings palace, Ter
esa turns owe the spice fields to the
king. the sailors are released, the king
marries the candidate who has been In
the tomb" (Asbena) and there Is a
happy understanding for all.

NEW DEPARTMENTS OPEN

The opening Of the new millinery
and ladies' furnishing departments at
SINNERS department store this week
has been a most suspicious one. The
new departments have been crowded
with ladies nearly every hour of the
day and they promise to be as popular
with Brookings people as the other de-
partments of the big store. The new
departments are located on the north
side Of the second floor, with a wide
stairway leading to them from the
main floor. The rooms are elegantly
furnished and have a rest room and
all other conveniences for the tired
shopper Large skylights and the Dig
windows in front provide good light
and electric lights make 1t brilliant at
night. Mrs. z. B. Davis, the milliner,
has her department in the front rooms.
those in the rea being given over to
the ladies furnishings and both have
ample room for the proper display Of
their stocks. Mr.. Skinner has
spared no pains nor expense to make
the new departments the best In this
section and in keeping with the rest
of the store, and we are confident that
his enterprise will be rewarded by a
most liberal patronage. Mr.. Skinner
also has a number of improvements
in view on the main floor.

NEW NIGHT

Announcement Is made by the Wes-
tern Union Telegraph company that 1t
Will shortly be prepared to handle
long night messages at the rates GUS
tomarily charged for ten-word day
messages. 1t appears that the Western
Union has a large unemployed mile
age OF wire at night which is not
earning anything. These wires must
be maintained in any event to lake
care Of the regular day business and
it is apparently the idea OF the new
interests in the telegraph company to
let the public have the benefit OF
them. The announcement states that
"a special night letter service will be
established as soon as practicable. The
charge for this service will be the
standard Cay rate for ten words, for
the transmission of fifty words or less,
and one-ffth Of such standard day rate
will be charged for each additional
ten words or less"

BOARD OF HEALTH NOTICE.

The filth accumulations of winter
are especially disease producers. Dur,
ing the next week everybody should
clean up alleys and hack yards and
disinfect vaults with plenty of fresh
lime or with blue stone followed by a
liberal supply of kerosene.
Early screening of windows and
doors will help defeat the bad work
OF the flies and this ought to be done
with windows and doors of barns.
Look to the cleaning before spring
rains wash the Nth into your wells.

HoMESTAKE NOW OPEN.

Within sixty days from the time a
determination was reached to resume
work, and just thirteen weeks since
the mine shut down, the Homestake
Mining Company has succeeded in get
ting all it's plants in operation and is
now running again at full capacity,
says a Lead dispatch. The task was
no small n as when the shutdown
came. it was believed necessary to
remain closed for a long period and
every possible arrangement looking
toward this end, was made. Ma
chinery and pipes in all the plants
were disjointed and laid away to keep
from rusting and the mine was put in
shape for at least a years idleneas.
The work or resumption has been
carried or as speedily and safely as
was possible. It was necessary for
the company to import miners and
shovelers to supplant the union men
who refused to sign up as non-union.
They were brought in daily from min.
ing camps all over the west, many Of
them being practically green men who
were forced to rely entirely on the
bosses for the methods of working the
big property that contains more than
100 miles Of track underground. The
company will push the plant to the
fullest capacity.

Passing seasons have not robbed
"The Isle of Spice" Of it's SAVIOR. Two
large Sunday audiences at the Krug
showed such pleasure at the present
production that it seems assured of
drawing we'll throughout the entire
week Of the engagement.
Comedy, rather than music, makes
the chief bid for favor, not that the
musical numbers are not will done, but
because Harry B Watson Is a truly
funny, eccentric comedian. He and
Harry B. Williams, as the deserters
from the American battleship, whose
experiences on the isle make up the
story, furnish a lot Of fun of the kind
that provokes spontaneous laughter.
These chief fun makers are aided by
Stanley Felch, who, az the king, is at
times amusing.
Misses Matte Mart, Margaret Fetch
and Julia Di Cynthia are a trio of
principals who sing we'll and are of
pleasing appearance. Not less charm
ing is Miss Clio Peril who in addition
to carrying a minor role and having a
solo number which goes well. is one
Of the most active members of the

CANS DOESN'T THINK JEFF Is
Able TO CONE BACK

what wonders he has accomplish
ed in his training.
IF Jeffries were in his prime he
would be a ten to one favorite
over Johnson. But six or seven
years without a battle makes more
difference than the average man
can conceive.
Don't know? Haven't l had
time to think this over, with
dozens of other things, since
came to Arizona to make the hard
est fight of my career.
"Jeffries may look good on the
outside, but years of inactivity are
bound to put the inner workings
to the bad. He may be in his old
time form, but / doubt it, Berger,
Burns, Cornell and the others not
withstanding.
with Jeffries not in prime
condition, Johnson has a royal
chance to tack his title above the
reach of any living fighter.

Warm Reception When
Jeff Reaches Reno

where the arena will be erected,
and actual work on the structure
was begun. All the lumber In
Reno available for the work was
taken to the park, and the rest
that is needed has been ordered
and will be here in day or two,
by the time the builders are ready.
The site of the new arena is
about a mile from the center of
the city. An electric railroad
runs along one side of the park
and the tracks of the Southern
Pacific on the other. Rooms in
Reno are at a premium today. A
group of enterprising lads corner
ed all the available cots and are
renting them to lodging houses
and hotels at prices varying from
|25 to SO cents per night.
Tents are also in demand, and
it is thought that before the day
of the battle there will be can
vas camp where many of the fight
visitors will be accommodated.

1.-THE SCIENCE OF B|NGLEE SS- HITTING THE BALL
Hugh Fullerton Says That the
Successful Pitcher Is a Born
Deceiver and the Good Hitter
the Man Who Penetrates His
Wiles.

Take rs pennies; distribute
them among a number of bal
players and tell them to match,
odd and even. for keeps. The game
will not have progressed very far
until the players viii be limited
to two, the pitcher and the best
batter, who will have all the pen
mics between them.
Try this experiment over and
over again. 1t will always come
out the same way.
Mysterious but true.
So, at least, says Hugh s. Full
lerton, that well-known student of
the scientific points of base ball,
in an article in the American
magazine, out today, entitled
Batting"
The reason that the good bat
tiers and the pitchers are the mas
tiers OF the game Of matching pen
mics is because the pitcher is a
born student at deceiving. while
the good batters are close stu
dents of the wiles developed by
the pitchers.
There are two classes OF bat
ters," says Fullerton in this in
structing expose of the batting
art. THE first are the natural
hitters, men with quick eyes and
quick, accurate swing of the bat.
combined with immense driving
power. The second class. how
ever. the students of the push,
poke. hunt and chop style Of hit
ting, is taking first rank from the
Iungfng. swinging batter. and the
heavy hitters are discarded unless
they can mix mp their system OF
attack.
"The batter who goes to the
plate now has in mind the ulfi-
mate result OF the game. rather
than the Immediate desire TO
reach first base. He may be sent
there with orders to force the
pitcher to throw as many balls as
possible without striking out. and
~ he succeeds In drawing 4 large
nnmber OF balls he may then

mate result Of the game as hs

RENO. New. June 22.-There
are two new shiny spots on the
maps of the world today-Moana
Springs and Kicks training camp.
Moana, shined up and ready, will
get the first glare Of the spotlight
when James ]. Jeffries makes his
initial bow with group OF train
'ers gracefully gathered around as
a chorus. There was a warm re-
eeption for the retired champion
when he arrived. The people of
Reno turned out just to prove that
they could cheer for two days in
succession, and long before JEFF
fries train arrived they had gath
cred at the station to greet him.
A big auto such as would de-
light the soul of Jack Johnson was
ready to carry Jeffries to Moana,
and was waiting early for the
fighters arrival.
Things are going forward with
a rush. Early today teams began
hauling lumber to State park,
