GOVERNORS BEARD STILL
IS ON GOVERNORS FACE

He declared this morning, with
some asperity. that the report Is
false, being based on untrue premise.
1t seems the story started when Ter
ritorial Auditor Fisher was seen on
the street today with his entire coun-
tenance, save his upper lip. exposed
to the gaze OF the populace. For
years Mr.. Fisher has boasted hIr-
suite facial growth even exceeding
that OF the Governor in length and
breadth, yet it was said that II was
the result of a deep admiration for.
and an effort to emulate Frear. its
disappearance without previous hint
or warning, was therefore taken to
mean that the Governor also has
shaved. But, as Mott-Smith says,
both the rumor and its basis are with
out foundation in fact.

Backed by excellent authority the
Star-Bulletin is able to deny the
rumor which was spreading down
town today that Governor Frear
shaved off his luxuriant beard before
sailing away on the Thetis yester-
day afternoon for those mid Pacific
sand dunes known as Laysan and
Midway islands. The authority is no
less than Secretary and now Acting
Governor E. A. Mctt-Smith, one of the
last to shake hands with the Chief
Executive aboard the revenue cutter
and wish him and Attorney General
Lindsay bon voyage"

 "The Shepherd of the Hills" was the play presented by the Hutchin- son stock company at the Airdome last evening. In anticipation of wit messing something out of the ordi- nary a large and select audience was present, and they were in no sense disappointed. The play was an ideal one and those who read the romance of Harold Bell Wright had no idea that it could be dramatized into such remarkable offering. It was a masterpiece Each of the characters was in the hands of the leading mem bers of the company and their work was a treat This bill was arranged by MT Hutchinson. who is dra- matiist of note, and he never wrote anything better than when he dra ; matized "The Shepherd of the Hills.

 Have you also noted the excellent specialties that this show is present. ing? There are three great vaude- yille acts, including as pretty ana a sister team as any would care to see, beside big musical This is one of the largest and best stock companies that has ever been in Hot Springs and they will be here for three weeks en- gagement
