Love comes unbidden and takes nc
heed of circumstances.
It's only those whose claims on So
ciety are beyond cavll who can af-
ford to despise it.
AS experience comes, virtue de-
parts.
Vice and virtue are interchangeable
terms, and have only such meaning as
We choose to give them.
Famous places, like famous people,
are best known by their sins.
The first dawn of a new passion
puts the boy into an our hearts.
There's a blessing in the gift OF
speech just for the relief it gives the
speaker.
Henry B. Harris is probably the
only prominent theatrical manager
who does not object to engaging hus-
band and wife for the same company
In fact, on the other hand, he encour-
ages Joint engagements. He feels
that the actors life at the best is no;
n most pleasant one when on tour
With husband and wife playing in the
same company better performances

At the Queen, the popular East

er motion pictures are a novelty well
worth seeing. The action of the
pictures is given realism by word ac-

Kramer recruits from the legitimate
drama. Mrs Kramer Is a we'll
known professional, having been as
ISOLATED with the William j.. Mann

are the voices of the interpreters
guaged that they seem to come from

and the clever little ruse adds i'm
measurably to the conviction of the
portrayed themes.

"The cost of everything we need In
the theatrical producing business has
more than doubled in the past five
years We cannot make up for this in

Natural Ga. for Colorado.

Denver.-All OF northern Colorado.
including Boulder. Longmont. Berth
oud. Loveland and Fort Collins. is
to be supplied with natural gas from
the Boulder field OF the United OIL
Company. A pipe line will be con-
structed early next spring. This is
the first attempt at piping natural
gas on an extensive scale In this por-
ton OF the West The Standard OIL
Company is installing at Boulder an
extracting plant to separate the gaso-
line from the natural gas. The plant
will cost 100000. The gas runs two
TO seven gallons Of a fine quality Of
gasoline to the thousand feet. Bould-
er is producing 100000 cubic feet OF
gas daily. which will be sufficient. It
is believed. to supply the big towns
OF northern Colorado. State Oil In
spector Claude f. Sweet will refer to
the new plant in his annual report to
the governor. The plans have been
considered for some time by the
Standard Oil Company and will be car
ried out as soon as the extractor Is
installed. Il am informed" said Mr..
Sweet, that the gas will be better
than the ordinary kind because 1t will
go through system OF refinement.
II is believed the supply can be fur
nished cheaper than by coal produc-
ton. There is only one small natural
gas plant in Colorado at the present,
but this scheme will be on a large
scale" The Boulder field this year
has produced $4,000 barrels of crude
oil, worth $1.50 barrel. 1t carries
nineteen to twenty per cent gasoline.
The refineries there produced 100000
gallons of fuel and gas oil and 1.000.-
900 gallons of coal oil and gasoline.
The Florence field has produced 200.-
600 barrels OF crude oil, valued at 81
barrel. The two refineries near
Florence produced 100000 gallons of
gasoline and coal oil, 100000 gallons
OF fuel and gas oil, 100000 gallons
smudge oil for the Western Slope.
900 900 gallons lubricating oil. and
15O, 900 pounds of paraffin. The re-
tail price of these products amounts to
81 500 900. Nearly the total oil pro-
duction of Colorado is controlled by
the United Oil Company, in which the
Standard Oil Company owns consid-
cradle stock.
