OPERA HOUSE.
For Three Days Commencing
Nov. 9th.
An exchange saws:

"The audience which witnessed the
play entitled barriers Burned Away
as presented by the Gibson Players at
Corde Opera House Thursday night,
left the Theatre highly pleased with
the performance. This drama is built
on the book of the same name. written
by E. P. Roe. and has to do with events
surrounding the great Chicago fire OF
1870. While the fire itself will live
long in history as one of the most
tragic events of modern times, entail
ing loss of life and property that is
appalling. E 2. Roe merely uses it as
a vehicle to carry out love story.
A story of course of a young man and
a young woman between whom were
raised the barriers of wealth and So
cial station, The author makes this
fire perform at least one good act in
burning down those barriers so that
two loving hearts in the closing
scenes, found no obstacle to the culmi-
nation Of their affections. 1t is a
story of human interest. and was well
played by this Company Of high
class artists"

sign. was to consecrate the mem.
DRY of the dead Confederate sol.
diers from the Parish of St. Mary.

by popular subscriptions and by
the liberality of the Police Jury
and that of the Council of the
Town of Franklin. eighteen hund.
red dollars, and about one year
later they raised two hundred dol
lars by q public entertainment,
which amounts were paid to the
Neil Marble Co., who was the con-
tractor to erect the monument,
making in all paid two thousand
dollars. The contract price lie
three thousand dollars, which
leaves one thousand dollars still
due and unpaid. Commander r.
w. Allen spoke with great ear.
nestness and feeling. And then
this aged Veteran. referring to the
fret company that volunteered
from this parish, ninety EIGHT in
mum Der, and were mustered into
service just where the monument
now stands, said: "That only
four are living today; that most
of the others sacrificed their lives
on the battle fields of Belmont,
Shiloh, Perryville, Chjcamauga,
Missionary Ridge and Spanish
Fort" "They," he continued,
"with the nine hundred soldiers
who volunteered from st Mary,
and who were just as true and
brave, deserve monument"
The Police Jury donated $3.50 90 to
the great pleasure and satisfac-
ton of the old veterans, who, af-
ter thanking the Jury for it's as
sistance, retired.

ONE TELEPHONE LINE is
TAKEN OVER BY ITS RIVAL

The Lemhi Telephone and Tele-
graph company took over the lines
and telephone equipment of the Red
Rock and Salmon River company by
purchase last Saturday, in accordance
with the plan of consolidation out
lined in the last issue of The Recor-
der. Thus henceforth we shall have
one telephone line instead OF two.
with which the community has been
afflicted for number of years Be
sides this consideration. telephone
users will stand to have an improved
service. covering all the territory
heretofore served by both lines.
Trunk lines were stretched across the
street between the two switchboards
as the first evidence of consolidation
This was commenced on Saturday, il
being intended that patrons of either
line could have the facilities of both
within day or two. Both Offices viii
be maintained until such time as
weather conditions will permit the
taking out and putting in of poles,
There will be charge for one service

superintendent w. N Bickler of
the Lemhi company has spent the
better part OF a week in Salmon look
ing after the details OF the deal and
directing the handling of the new and
enlarged enterprise. For his com
pany he simply took up the option
held by Roy B. Herndon. who. with
Dr. Owen T. Stratton, had been act
ing in the premises for the Business
Mems association. The purpose OF
the association at first was to rehab-
ililate the old Red Rock company by
bringing in new capital for an out
side connection for these lines.
In the midst of this enterprise the
new Lemhi company appeared as a
purchaser for the option held by Mr.
Herndon. With community appar
emily united and standing behind
Messrs. Herndon and Stratton, Mr.
Bickler saw the possibility of having
first class line on hand with no pa
irons to use 1t, II the plans of the
Business Mems association were car
ried out.
