What They Thought.

Two sentimental spinsters live next
door to a satisfed-with-h is-condition
bachelor. And he does have a time
avoiding their conspicuous attentions
But the worst of all was the other
eight after he had rolled into bed
and was called to the telephone. A
spinster's voice came over the phone
'Oh, Mr.. Blank, there is man at ouI
window"
The bachelor snorted: Doesn't he
know where your door Isl" he re
torted
And now their attentions have
ceased.

COMPANY COMING
Three Strong Plays to be Staged
Next Monday Tuesday and
Wednesday Evenings.

"a Woman's Way" Monday night,
"The Other Mans Wife," Tuesday
night, and "the End of A Perfect
Day." Wednesday night, are the
three exceptional offerings of the f,
Forrest Taylor Company to Cedar
Patrons next week. The plays ali
abound with comedy, but in none is
plot sacrificed for mere fun. Good
strong plots we'll handled by an effic.
lent and talented cast headed by L. j
Foote, whose work is too we'll known
to need comment. Too much cannot
be said of Miss Bergman, nor is IL
easy to say where she makes the most
powerful appeal, though many incline
to her work as the Irish colleen in that
great play The End Of A Perfect DAY.
Every day adds to her reputation as a
stage favorite.
Seats will be on sale at Woods Tog.
gerry at an early date. No doubt this
popular company will be greeted by
packed houses, beginning next Mon.
day evening, September 18th. Adv.

During the slight shower that fell
last Saturday lightning struck the
haystack belonging TO Daniel Seeg-
miller, at his residence, setting it
afire and burning up about three tons
Of the ten tons of hay that the stack
contained. What is left is so scorched
and smoked that there is considerable
loss in its value. The flames caused
considerable excitement, with a rush
of buckets, hose, patent fire exiting
uishers, etc, to the scene. The quick
use of the telephone and the prompt
response Of citizens kept the fire from
uolng an immense amount OF damage.
A great protection TO the surrounding
buildings was the light shower of rain
which accompanied the electrical
storm.
From the number of cars passing
through Cedar City last Wednesday
and Thursday, there must be some
crowd at the Dixie Carnival and Fruit
feast. The road seemed to be lined
with cars nearly all day, The call of
"Dixie" seems to be almost irresistible
to all those who have once called it
home, and we strongly suspect that
the luscious fruit feast which tops off
the annual function has considerable
to do with drawing people from so
wide a radius.
