HIGH SCHOOL
TO GIVE PLAY
"A Night of Duplicity;" A
Comic Drama in Four
Acts, Monday, 18th.

The high school theatrical tai
ent selected to put on a comic
drama for the benefit of the
school base ball team, is now be-
ing exercised, drilled and coach
ed by Superintendent and Mrs.
King at the opera house. The
play is billed for Monday night,
tK 18th inst, and the youngsters
are being taken through a daily
course of rehearsing that means
much to them in the matter of
general training in discipline and
department, and will be invalu-
able to them in future life.
This work has been voluntar-
lily taken up on the part OF Mr..
and Mrs. King for the encour-
agement of the high school base
ball team and for the general
good that may accrue to the in
dividual participants by the work
which is given them.
1t is not necessary for the Globe
to make any special appeal to the
school patrons or the general
public to give the play their
hearty support and cooperation,
for they have invariably done so
in the past, and such an appeal
at this time would seemingly east
reflection upon past loyalty
Home talent plays always strike
a responsive and harmonious
chord in the breast of our Local
citizenship, and no matter how
much sparring may be going OF
over other matters, when the
locals come before the footlights
a truce is declared and every
body goes out to hear them, anC
this occasion will be no exception
The boys have already bought
nice ball suits and other phara
phernalia for the team and arr
depending upon the play to foo
the bill, and the young ladies
with true hlgn ScnOoi oydiIy az
helping boost their team along
and everybody else will do tn
same.

DAM AND BOOM
BILL in COURT
Carried Up to Supreme Court,
on Question of Closing
Highways.

Boise Capital News The Clear
water dam suit growing out of
the dam and boom bill passed by
the eleventh Legislature for the
benefit If the north fork of the
Clearwater river, the constitu-
tionality of which was attacked
in the district court of Nez Perce
county where Judge Steele de-
MED a motion for an injunction
against the Clearwater Lumber
company to prevent it from erect
ing a dam across the stream, will
be re-submitted ON May 25 before
the supreme court. The suit is
entitled Otto Grice VS.. the Clear
water Timber company. Appeal
was taken from the decision of
Judge Steele to the higher court.
The state is directly interested
in the suit in that it holds title
to $4,000 acres of land located
along the shores of the Clearwa-
ter river. Copies of the brief in
the case will be submitted to the
attorney general who, if he de-
sires, may submit a brief and ar
gument when the appeal is heard
before the supreme court.
That important legal questions
are involved in the case is now
admitted. One of those to be
tested by the supreme court is
whether the legislature has au
thority to enact special legisla
ton in the face of the statute
which provides that no specia
laws shall be enacted which shall
close the highways of the state
A river or stream is cOntendeC
to come within the scope OF thi
!statute. 1t is claimed, however
that the legislature is constant.

lation for may parts of the stat
and in support of this the numer

preparations and numerous othe
measures are cited.
The Clearwater dam bill wa

the eleventh session. Its purpos
was to do away with the expens
of constructing spillways in dan

as to make it possible for the co

Mozart's Musical Memory.

Mozart had a wonderful memory OF
musical sounds. When only fourteen
years Of age he went to Rome to as
sist in the solemnities Of holy week.
Immediately after his arrival he went
to the Sistine chapel to hear the ia
nous "Miserere" Of Allegri. Being
aware that it was forbidden to take or
give a copy of this renowned piece Of
music. Mozart placed himself in a cor
ner and gave the strictest attention to
the music and on leaving the church
noted down the entire piece. A few
days afterward be heard it a second
time and. following the music with his
own copy in his hand, satisfied himself
Of the fidelity Of his memory. The
next day he sang the "M~iserere" at a
concert. accompanying himself on the
harpsichord. and the performance pro
duced such q sensation in Rome that
Pope Clement XIV. requested that this
musical prodigy should be presented
TO him at once.

Stewed Apples.

To stew apples so each quarter is
unbroken aud 50 clear one can almost
see through it is III art. and yet it is a
simple thing to do if n only knows
how. Peel tart apples very thin, cut
them in quarters and remove the cores
and seeds. AS fast as you can peel and
quarter them drop the apples in a
saucepan in which you have already
placed cold water to the depth Of two
inches. When the apples are all in, put
the saucepan owe a slow fire. cover 1t
till the water reaches the boiling point.
then remove the cover and let the ap-
pies simmer almost im~perceptibiy till
you can pierce them easily with a
broom splint: then sprinkle the sugar
I'VE them and let them just simmer
until it is all melted. Remove the
saucepan from the fire and let it stand
where the apples will get cold before
turning them into a dish for the table.
