L.. c. Sharp expects to fence all of

Ptimari~s THIS Summos;
Want Representation.

There is persistent report her. that
the people Of Marble and the north end
Of Gsnnison county will urge the candi-
dacy Of MIR. Thomas Beeziey for one Of
the county offices on the Democratic
ticket at the primaries this sumner
There seems TO be desire on the part
of the citizens Of Msrble that thai sec
tIon of the county he represented in the
county government. and they have ap-
parently eentered their interests IN the
candidacy Of Beezley, who is at present
cashier of the Marble City State Bank.
II is the prevailing opinion mere that
Marble should be represented. Marine
and the north end of the connty have
the county, and the city of Marble is
the center Of one Of Gunnison coanty's
leading Industries. A citizen Of Marble
has never held county Office, and yet
this thriving little city polls vote
which is equsled by only two OF three
other places in the county. Marble
pays a large proportion of the county's
taxes and the asking Of representation
of this kind is undoubtedly Justified
Thomas Beezley has been unidentified
with the leading interests of Marble
ever since he came to that town nearly
five years ago. He came to Marble in
November of 1893 and until November
1911 was employed as book keeper and
paymaster Of the Colorado Yuie Marble
Company. In January 1912 he became
cashier of the Marble City State Bank
and 10 holding that position at the pre-
sent time. He also is holding the posi-
ti0n of town clerk Of Marble.

TONIGHT BROWNS
LAST APPEARANCE

Miss Donna Vickroy, the clever and
beautiful leading woman with Gilmor
Brown in "a Game of Hearts," which
is to lie presented at the opera houes
this evening, is in despair over the
demands of her role in that play.
Miss VicKroy is an exceptional ac-
tress and heretofore has never com
plaine6 of the amount of work de-
manded of her in the most difficult
parts. But she finds that the de-
mands for the leading woman in "a
Game of Hearts" would cause dismay
even to Sarah Bernhardt. AS Be
linda Trehune in the play she is sup
posed to appear at the wedding fes-
tivities in the second act in dismal
plight. She does not know whether
she is married or single. If she is
married she does not know her hus-
Lands name. If he is already mar
ried he is a bigamist. In her des-
pair she weeps and unconsciously eats
some cakes designed for the wedding
guests. She relates her trouble tc
the rride and consumes more cakes,
and as her troubles and trials grow
upon her she nervously eats all the
cakes.
At first Miss Vickroy, whose play
ing of this scene, which is one of the
most delightful things in the play,
enjoyed eating of the cakes, but it
is beginning to pail on her now.
Miss Vickroy was once fond OF
cakes, but not now.
