A BRET HARTE PARSON
IN NEW FAIRBANKS PLAY

1.-THE Half-Breed," the new Douglas
Fairbanks picture on the Triangle pro-
pram, which will be shown at the Or
pheum theatre Thursday and Friday,
is a dramatization of a celebrated
story by Bret Harte, called "In the
Carquinez Woods" 1t is perhaps as
characteristic of Harte as his other
famous story, THE Luck of the Roar
ing Camp"
Harte was one of the best examples
of writer's who put their own opinions
into their stories rather than yield to
consensus of feeling on any given
point, and nowhere is this more evil
dent than in his conception of the
character of Winslow Wynn, the Bap-
fist minister in 1.-THE Breed"
In the days of '49, which were the
days in which Harte knew the great
west of the United States, of which he
wrote, the ministers who came out
with emigrant trains through the des-
ert were rather free-and-easy charac-
tiers. In many cases they were men
who had found things too warm for
them in the east.
Therefore, Winslow Wynn, the min
lister in "The Half-Breed," does not
signify that Harte despised parsons in
general, but merely that he was writ
ing of type he had met.
OF course the day when such clergy
men were to be found in every west
ern community has long since passed

The Theatres
MUSICAL SCORE OF GRANDMA
TO BE TREAT TO MUSIC LOVERS

The appeal of the cinema-opera
Ramona" at the Lavering theatre,
Saturday, September %, is so strong
to music lovers as to make Clune's
stage version of Helen Hunt Jackson's
romance of California and the Mission
Indians an event fully as important
unsteady as it is dramatically.
Never before in the history of the
new art of welding the motion picture
to an operate score-an art compar-
able with Wagners joining of the
stage art of Shapespeare with inter
pretative music-has a setting of such
dignified sweetness as that provided
by Emil Bierman for Ramona" been
accomplished. Mr.. Bierman, a COM
poser of the highest attainments, had
displayed positive genius in selecting
romantic strains from the great mas
ters, and weaving them into a unified
whole, often supplying missing links
by original compositions that lose
nothing in their association with re-
cognized masterpieces.
Mr. Bierman is responsible for ex-
ample, for the tender theme that runs
through the entire cinema-opera with
each appearance of Ramona, the he
roine; and for the equally effective
theme that attends the aged Father
Salvierderra.
Alongside his own themes, Mr. Bier
man has set melodious strains from
such composers as Tschaikowsky
Grieg, Schumann, Mcdowell, Verdi
Wagner and the gigantic Beethoven
himself, to say nothing of numberless
cOmnOears whose talents have lifted
them into the border plane of genius
During the burning of the Indian
village, the orchestra plays the great
clashing Fire Scene" from Wagner's
opera of the "Waulkuere." This sad
dens off into the pathetic Sixth Sym
phony of Tschaikowski, as the In
dams file away from their homes anC
through the graveyards where thu
resting places of their dead are mark
ed by wooden crosses.

Horse Falls Through Bridge-Con-
siderable excitement was caused this
morning where excavation is being
made for the Dr. Baugh building, when
one of the horses pulling a scraper
fell half way through the planking of
the dumping bridge. The horse was
unable to climb out and in order to
extricate the horse it was necessary
to use block and tackle tied to a near
by telephone pole. The horse seemed
little the worse for it's experience.

Bisbee Portraits Are Superior
Reason Number 4

The Bisbee Studio was the only studio in
Southern Idaho daring to discontinue the making
of postal portraits years ago when there a
strong popular demand for them. Every studio
within two hundred miles welcomed postal sit
tings. The Bisbee Studio made this announce
ment; eve can afford to turn sittings away
every day, if necessary, because some people
think our prices are too high, but we can not
afford to do unsatisfactory work. Postcards
not good enough for fine portraiture. -
Year after year The Bisbee Studio voun-
tarily referred to other places average of one
hundred sittngs a year. Articles stating the
logic of this decision were written and submitted
to Photographic journals; they were accepted and
published. Since then several studios in this
section have taken similar attitude this
question. There must be pioneers in all reforms,
you know. The Bisbee Studio was the pioneer
in this region to raise the standard of the pho
tographic profession by eliminating postal por
traits.

HAS SOME FUN WITH
HIS BEARS IN PARK

West Bend, Feb. 3.-Rev. P. M. Dob
berstein had some real excitement
with his bears at the park. AS he had
more than he could take care OF dur
ing the winter, he decided to kill some
of the younger members of the fam.
lily However, in trying to separate
the bears into different pens, they
took to fighting among themselves at
a furious heat. At one time the en-
tire lot of five bears were interlocked
into one growing and gnashing, with.
ing and tumbling mass. Mr. Dobber'
stein says that he shot at them twice
but claims no honors as marksman.
as he missed them both times. He
therefore surrendered the gun to John
who finally succeeded in
driving the bullets home. The three
bears were killed, but the
older pair, Dick and Daisy" are to
have the privilege Of enjoying life a
little longer.

CALL ATTENTION TO
WINDOW SERVICE
DEPARTMENT DESlG.
MATES JUST WHAT GEN.
ERAL DELIVERY is FOR.

Sweethearts, swindlers, pirates in
the fields of love and finance-have a
care. The postofflce authorities OF the
United States government have put
the lid down on the friendly refuge
otherwise known as the general de-
livery
No longer may such individuals hide
their clandestine love affairs or con-
fidence games behind the cover OF
those two words. A general order has
been issued by the postofflce depart
ment which makes it necessary to ex-
tract a good reason from the indlvid-
ual who wants to receive his mail
through the general delivery window.
OF course there are people In Ot-
tumwa whose use Of the general de-
livery window is perfectly legitimate
and they may continue to use It. They
are people who are transients, who
have no permanent address. 1t would
be impossible for them to get their
mail otherwise. They are not the peo-
pie the postofice authorities are after.
Youths and maidens who wish to
deceive their parents and carry on
clandestine love affairs, use fictitious
names and get their mail at the gen.
eral delivery window. Young girls
carry on such correspondence with
older men in this and other towns in
that manner. The postoffice author
tiles want to put "a dampener on that
kind OF love-making and incidentally
are forcing the young people back to
the primitive. They will have to re-
turn to the use Of hollow trees and
holes in the ground. The government
declines to be a party to nefarious
designs cupid may have.
In the Future.
When an applicant appears at the
general delivery window, said appli-
cant Is required to state reasons for
receiving mail that way and Is COM
PEELED to leave the full name and ad-
dress. If it is some young girl or young
boy who appears to have no good ex-
cuse. there will be nothing doing I'M
less the request is accompanied by .
written communication from parents
or guardian. The rule will apply to
minors.
Experimenters in high finance will
also have some trouble operating
through the general delivery window
II they remain in town for any length
of time.

DRAMATIC STAR is
BOOSTING FOR IOWA

Iowa Falls, Feb. 3.--Once more the
state Of Iowa, an Iowa town and lady
character that halls from Iowa figure
In a Broadway success. The state has
long figured as favorite locale for
dramatists and in this instance the
state comes in for more notority in

Mrs. Minnie Madden Fiske Is the star.
The principal character in the play 10

before she went east to marry Penn
sylvania Dutchman and reform him,
his family and the community. Su-
san, as this character is known, at
one time trouped the state with re-
pertoire show that broke up In her
home town. The first climax in the
play comes after talky first act when
Susan first asserts her rights. Her
husband Is about to horsewhip his
daughter when Susan rushes in and
the whip from his hands,
deflantly exclaims, stop, you damned
Mrs. Fiske, as Susan, Is

MINER CAUGHT BY
FALL OF SLATE
JAMES LORD SERIOUSLY AND
PERHAPS FATALLY INJURED
THIS MORNING..

James Lord, 226 Fairview avenue,
was seriously and perhaps fatally in
jured this morning about 8 o'clock in
the mines at Rutledge when he was
caught beneath fall of slate. He was
rushed to the Ottumwa hospital and
it is thought that his back is broken.
Mr.. Lord, in company with a fellow
workman, Jack Whitman, entered
their room this morning at the mine
to see how the shots had worked.
On returning to remove their coats
they had just reached the entrance
to their room when the slate fell.
Mr.. Lord was pinned to the floor of
the room under the slate and MI.
Whitman escaped uninjured. II
Mr. Lord was taken to the Ottumwa
hospital in the automobile ambulance
Immediately and an operation was
performed this afternoon. The exact
nature of his injuries is unknown but
it is thought that his back is broken.
The injured man Is we'll known IN
Ottumwa and has been especially
prominent in semi-pro baseball circles.
He has been member of The Courier
baseball team for a number of years,
playing second base. "F
