MAN FROM MEXICO
MADE BIG HIT IN
GLENWOOO HOUSE

The following is taken from yes
terday's Glenwood Post:
2 1t is not often that home talent
play can be successfully staged for
second performance, but SO great was
the success OF The Man from Mex
ico," given at the Odeon few weeks
ago by the Glenwood Dramatic Club,
wherein dozens were turned away
that the public demanded repetition
of the performance and this was CIV
en- Thursday evening to another
splendid and appreciatlve audience.
An excursion of sixty people came
down from Spring Gulch and Sun
shine while New Castle and South
Canon contributed fifty more and our
Glenwood folks did the rest toward
giving the local players full house.
The Man from Mexico is lively
proposition and keeps an audience in
an uproar from start to finish. AS a
dissipator of the blues 1t is certainly
just the thing.
The leading part was played to per-
fection by Cliff Rowe as Benjamin
Fitzhew while Jack Worries was at his
very best in. impersonating Col. Rod
erick Majors. The ladies, Mrs. Grace
Everett and the Misses Meldon Bar
low and Mabel Moore. won the praise
of the audience by the exceptional
rendition, of their parts while John
Payne, Morgan Gavin, Barnette Ma
pierre. Harry Burnett. Ernest Barlow,
Ed Everett, George Blancett and
Ellis Crissman each seemed per-
feet tit in the part to which he was
assigned.
From beginning to end the play
bristled with fun and the audience in
dicated by frequent applause their
high appreciation OF the perform
ance. The speciality sketches of
Smithers and O'Neil were very clever
and the tango dancing of Cliff Rowe
and Mrs. Everett was a feature that
was especially appreciated.
Altogether it was one of the best
performances ever seen in Glenwood
and demonstrates that the memb bers
OF the Glenwood Dramatic club are
actors OF no mean ability.

Sound Steamship Lines.
Associated Press.


Washington, D. c.. March IA
The department of justice attorneys
at conference today with the New
Haven counsel revived their demands
that the road prepare to get rid of
its steamship lines.
The demand came as a surprise to
the attorneys for the New Haven and
officials OF the department who are
not directly connected with the ne
gotiations.
The announcement several weeks
ago by Chairman Howard Elliott that
the railroad and the department of
justice had agreed to agree" and
declared that the New Haven should
rid itself of outside steamship lines,
but said the determination to sound
steamship lines would be left to the
Interstate Commerce Commission.
Under the Panama Canal act per-
mission of the commission is neces-
sary for railroad to operate steam

NEW YORK PEACH
CROP CUT SHORT
BY COLD WEATHER
Sentinel Special Service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Rochester, Mar. 1.-THE coldest
and stormiest winter since 1883 in
Western New York has done great
damage in the fruit belt, according
to statements by prominent horticul-
turists who have examined orchards
from Rochester to Niagara Falls.
Peaches they said, had been hit the
hardest, many orchards having from
one-third to two-thirds of the buds
killed. If these estimates prove true,
the loss TO Western New York peach
growers alone will be enormous. 1t
will reach 81 100000 to 10000
according to the figures produced by
the trade. They base these figures
on prices received for peaches last
year, when 4 900 cars of the fruit
were shipped from up-setate loading
stations. Upon conservative esti-
mate of $500 car these shipments
brought approximately s2,000,000 If
the crop is curtailed from one-third
to two-thirds this season, ii can easily
be seen what the monetary loss will
be to upstate peach growers
The Peach King" of Irondequoit,
George NJ. Rudman. said he had made
one examination and was appalled, at
the damage he had found in parts
OF his orchard. He said that while it
was impossible to state with exact
accuracy, he thought that between a
third and two-thirds of the buds
were dead. He added that the dam
age might be more and that it might
be less. He explained that the in
jury had been caused by rain, which
froze to the limbs, forming ice, which
in turn killed the tender buds. Tenn
peratures dropped to 13, IA and in
some case is below zero, and made
matters worse. Buds that were green
