funeral, whose years of toll in the in
terest of building up the community

their fellow citizen until after they
had passed from earthly scenes. Rev.

kind is such Indifference or such
thoughtlessness on the part of well
meaning people.
Rev. Ohl's address was one of the
most impressive funeral addresses
heard in the city in many years.
The musical program was beauti-
full. consisting of quartette and solo
selections: Mrs. w. G. Boyer, Mrs
II. II. Welles, Mr.. Rice and Mr.
Alfred Kilbey, with Miss Ruth
Rankin, as pianist rendered the
music.
The floral tributes were many
and very beautiful.
The interment took place at Or
chard Mesa cemetery and in the
presence of a great number of sor-
rowing friends the mortal remains of
james II. Smith. pioneer and beloved
citizen, were consigned to the last
resting place to await the Dawn of
the Never-Ending Day.

Me" is the biggest farce hit in a long

giant burlesque, for Excuse Me" is
not of that order, 1t is a play brim-
ming over with light comedy. It is
life on holiday, bright, witty, anus
ing spectacle of what might happen
are not ordinary persons or they would
not be amusing, and these are, espe-
cially so because the conditions under
which they are shown and the circum-
stances that create the conditions
which of themselves are interest
ing. The combination makes for laugh
ter, as it was designed to do, but it is
not absurd, as farce frequently is. 1t
is sane. The story. or narrative, or
episodes, or adventures or whatever
the term may be that covers the action
in the play, take place on a railroad
train during the trip from Chicago to
Reno. The scenes represent the inter
ior of Pullman sleeper and the club
car of the Overland Limited express,
the passengers and the train crew as
characters, and what they do and Wat
is done to them on the run male the
farce And there is somethiIS doing
and done from thirty MINUS before
leaving time in Chicago u'til Reno is
reached. Four days is ene schedule
time for this two-thorand mile trip.
That certainly is by OF laughter to
squeeze into the time INIT OF play. !
When things are livepst the train is
held up by robbers. This adventure
gives one of severf genuinely dra- !
matte touches to te comedy The
stage settings are ,nique and attrac-
tive. The illusion | train in motion |
is effectively PROCEED.

There has started in Baltimore a
systematic plan to deal with street
mendicants In a practical and sensi-
BILE way. says the Baltimore Ameri-
can. AS result OF conference a
special mendicancy officer has been
appointed to make careful exami-
nation Of each case and suggest the
wisest method Of dealing with it. He
will have plenty to do, although street
beggars are not BIS numerous as they
We're a few years ago. Still there are
an abundance Of them, surely enough
TO keep an officer busy. Some Of
these mendicants have grown old In
the business and are familiar figures
on busy shopping streets. Few, IL
any, Of them, are worthy Of charity.
They stay in the business because
they find 1t the easiest way to GET
food and drink, especially drink.
