Fly Caused in Books.

For seven months an expert ac-
countant searched the books of a
certain grain company of st. Paul
for an error of an even hundred
dollars. There was that shortage
in cash. Whom to suspect the firm
did not know. 1t spent much more
than a hundred dollars trying to
trace the matter down.
And then, after going over the
books time an tagain, the account
ants pencil CHANGED to stop on an
item of $50. The pencil point
rested on the figure "one" when the
figure suddenly broke into and

serious mistake when he attempted
to win his way to Congress by at
lacking the official record of Con-

is thoroughly vindicated in the re-
suit of last Tuesdays primary cleo

that no member of congress has
more to his credit for service rem

Democratic congress than has the

The Use of Paper.

People have long been familiar
with the fact that there are paper
car wheels and buckets and various
implements OF conviences, and
that paper can be employed both
as a means of retaining heat. Cook
ing in paper bags is now very COM
mon. A paper manufacturer stat
ed that his firm is experimental 6
with a kind of paper which can be
used for making clothes which can
be sewed and held together by but
tons. Paper towels are already
made in German, Paper hats have
been a fashion for some time, In
place of washable cotton sunbon-
nets and caps children can have
each day a new paper hat costing a
few cents, taking one item off the
laundry bill. Paper shirts and
handkerchief have come into vogue.
Substitutes for table covers, tea
cloths and other linen are being
produced in paper. Y. AdvO-

MADAME SHERRY
SCORES A BIG
SUCCESS
Charm of Music and Excellent Act
ing Enthuse the Big Audience
Every Little Movement
Means Success for Play.

The charm of its haunting harmon
les, the fair, fresh feminine faces and
forms and the excellent acting carri-
ed Madame Sherry to an enthusi-
astic success last night at the Park
opera house. The tuneful melodies
of this queen of comedies would have
saved Madame X'' from its sordid-
ness, or made Ten Nights in Bar
Room a gale of laughter.
And the music was well sung, too,
for seldom have Grand Junction au-
diences heard more pleasing voices
than those possessed by "Yyonne'
and Lulu" Indeed, little Miss Ma
rie Flynn, in the role of the convent
graduate, equalled if not surpassed
"Nadina" of THE Chocolate Soldier"
seen and heard here a few months
ago.
The costuming was excellent. all
the feminine members of the cast
were selected as much for ability as
for personal charms (and they all
possessed BOTH; the specialtis intro
duced were above the ordinary. If
one is expected to criticize, the thing
uppermost in every mind must have
been the sad need of an orchestra.
What added pleasure there would
have been in Every Little Move
ment, " The Butterfly Song" and
The Smile Song" if an accompania-
ment of a dozen pieces of orchestra
might have been heard.
The scenic features of the produc-
ton were not up to the Lederer
standard. The setting for the final
act held remarkable possibilities, for
the stage craftsman, but the flats"
and props" showed the hard usage
of couple of years on the road and
