Girl and Tramp COMPANY.

The Girl and The Tramp company,
which was billed for three-nights'
engagement in Cedar City, showed
only Monday and Tuesday nights, on
account Of a lack Of attendance. For
some reason their performances didn't
appear to strike the fancy of theatre
goers here, though we considered that
their play Tuesday night compared
very favorably with that Of other the
atre troupes that make this country.
The company came via Panguitch, Ka-
nab and st. George and reported a
very satisfactory business all along
the line.

AN ONENFES Ed KOLE
BY Mary Bream
Mrs. Emily Hilton laughed in an
embarrassed way. ''Wait till Bessie
comes home from her finishing
school," she said. "Then, Mr.. Ray
mond, you will appreciate us more"
1t really was embarrassing, for
Mrs. Hilton, at SO, was still an I'M
commonly pretty woman. Her hus-
band had been dead for five years.
He had left her an annuity of 200,
which was ample for the village, and
one daughter, now Is years old.
George Raymond was 35. He had
settled in the little place year be-
fore and opened law office, which
was flourishing, as law offices do in
country villages where litigous rich
men exist. And Mrs. Hilton was con-
scious against her will that she was
falling in love with a man three or
four years her junior.
He was a frequent visitor at the
Hilton home, but he had never met
Bessie. And Mrs. Hilton was deter
mined that he should never tell her
hec AIRED for her until he had at least
metthe girl.
In due time Bessie came home,
ready for the game of life, her pref
ty head full of shallow nonsense. She
was blonde, in striking contradis-.
tinction to her mother. She was
frivolous, joyous, and altogether in
sincere.
But what is insincerity in the bal
ance with youth and freshness? Mrs.
Hilton found herself, to her horror, a
rival with her daughter for the young
mans affection. And, what both
troubled and yet pleased her-trou-
bled her as woman and pleased her
as mother-George Raymond was
undeniably becoming infatuated with
Bessie.

Letty--you remember Lefty, who used

Lefty was the housemaid at this
hotel when Anthony was King e. Co. s

brought her up very strict, and when
she died Lefty was only eighteen ard
knew about as much Of the world as
child does. The house was worth about
two thousand, for property had been
going up for a long time; but Lefty
couldn't live on nothing while it was
on the market, so she came to the
tavern as second housemaid. In those
days service of that kind wasn't con-
sidered anyways lowering in Wake

Anthony was staying over night. It
