OPERA COMING TO
 JUNEAU JUNE 2
O.

The Juvenile Bostonians will open at the orpheum in Juneau Monday evening June ?, with the Dream Girl" and close Tuesday night, June g. with "The Rose of Blandeen."
 This may be the last tour of the West that the Juvenile Bostonians will make for some years. Their success last season in the Middle West at tracted the attention of the Shuberts and other New York managers who made aattering inducements to Cos grove and Lang for an Eastern inva- sion. Considering the very few West ern organizations that make an East ern success this offer is one that es- tablishes the merit and the public fa- vor of the organization.
 The eighth season of the Juvenile Bostonians will be the most noteable tour of the organization. Mrs. Lang is still the director who has been re. sponsible for the past triumphs. MT. George Bromley will continue as mus ical director and his success in train ing the voices of the young ladies gives every indication that within a few years not few of these girls will be numbered among the great

PROLONGED CONTEST ON
 TARIFF BILL NOT WANTED

As this newspaper views the situa- ton, there is no possible profit to the Republican party or to business in- terests in entering upon prolonged op- position in the Senate to the Under wood tariff bill.
 Certainly the Republican party is not just in protracting this eXtraordi' nary session of Congress. If unulim- tied debate be attempted, let the clo' ture be invoked; if breaking of the quorum be sought, then resort to the Reed rules and count a quorum.
 A few innovations in the United States Senate at this juncture will not provoke the nations wrath. Ac' tion is wanted, and speedily.-Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

operatic stars of the country Cos. grove and Lang, the managers, have assembled a clever staff of compe- tent assistants and have provided for this years tour the best scenic, cleo. trical and costume equipment that money can buy. Everything is com plete.
 No age of woman is more attractive than sweet sixteen" And when a score of young ladies of that charm ing age are assembled in an organ ization, it goes without saying that the company is most fascinating. The Juvenile Bostonians, organized eight years ago and now on its eight season, has the cream of the sweet sixteen" girls. Many of them were in the orig. inal Juvenile Bostonians as children and have been with it continuously. They are now past the child age but not yet real grown-ups, retaining in consequence that charm and beauty of youth so characteristic of sweet sixteen"
 The several years of experience gained by these young girls has giv- en them stage presence, confidence and knowledge of their art but it has not spoiled them or made them stagey. They still view their work with enthusiasm of children, and are still able to maintain the juvenile standard.
