with an excellent rifle started with
several others after the Indians and

Indians made a great effort to carry
off the body of the one he had kill

himself as he did and he said that
he had only contempt for an Indian

bullets broke the dust near father.
The body OF the Indian was taken
to the railway track and brought
into town on a switch engine. After
much bantering father proceeded to

New Tax Arrangement
With Colorado Counties

At a recent meeting of the tax
commissioners for Routt and Moffat
counties in Colorado, Messrs l.. r..
Vivion and Abe Stratton, prominent
sheen operators in Carbon county
whose stock ranges into the Colo
RADIO counties, were assured that
new schedules for distributing the
taxes on this stock would be mad
effective. For more than a score OF
wears the interested counties have
distributed the taxes on Carbon
County stock ranging into Colorado
on a basis of four months occupa-
ton. Under the new rulings the
basis will be upon three months
ranging.
In the 1923 tax assessment IT,
2S5 sheep belonging to local oper-
ators were listed as ranging into
the two neighboring counties. At
an average valuation of SIS a head
for one-third of a year this repre-
sents an assessment on $132,522.5O
worth of livestock. For one-fourth
OF a year, or a three months occu-
paacy, the assessment is on but
$~99,391.S7. In the distribution or
taxes on the total number of sheep
for the entire year, therefore, tne
new arrangement will mean that the
difference between these two figures
or $~33,13O.63 would remain in Car
bon county rather than going to the
neighboring Colorado counties of
Routt and Moffat
The figures used are for the cur
rent year, and are shown merely as
examples, since the new ruling will
not affect the assessments for 1928.
Altho Will F.. Daley, county as
SCISSOR for Carbon county, has been
working upon a more equitable dis
tribution of tax assessments in this
instance for several years, he cred
its both l.. f. Vivion and Abe STRAIT
ton with securing the new ruling.
Since Carbon county sheep interests
have always been willing to see the
excessive tax assessment go out of
their county for the sake of securing
feed for their stock the voluntary
offer on the part of the Colorado
county assessors to waive claims
based on an agreement of twenty
years standing is considered most
generous.

Eva LIE GALLIENNE. daughter of
- the world renowned poet, Rich
ard LIE Gallienne. who will be seen
here in her original role Of Julie, in
"Liliom,"r impersonates the inno-
Gently ignorant little Hungarian
servant girl who worships "Liliom"
with an undying. but unexpressed
love. 1t Is just another type char
acterization which places her among
the very first of young character
actresses and again illustrates her
apparently unlimited talent to create
distinctive roles.
In her successful but brief career
Miss lie Gallienne has played many
parts, and never has she been identi-
fed with the type of player who
specializes. Her career has been con-
tinued variety. for she has never
played the same sort OF role in two
successive productions, yet each time
she startles her. audiences by her
work. Her performance in "Liliom"
has been called a gem of artistically
human Characterization.
Miss lie Gallienne was born in Lon
don twenty-five years ago. Her
mother was Julie Norregaard, the
poets second wife. and a noted jour
nalist Of Paris and London. When
Ave years old, she went to Paris to
live with her mother, was educated
In French private schools until she
was fifteen, when her mother and
she returned to London. Endowed
by nature with both ability to write
and paint, Miss LIE Gallienne decided
to tempt fate in a career in which
she was rather doubtful Of her own
ability, instead of following In the
beaten path of her parents, which
would have been SO much simpler
for her.

in a gorgeous shawl. which must
have been included in her European
trophies. The color was dark rich

of old rose, and 1t was heavily en-

and edged with a deep fringe Of
silken skeins.
Nine. Bertha Kalich, starring in
'Jitta's Atonement," at the Shubert-
Garrick. first appeared In a stunning
afternoon gown Of tan crepe romaine.
The bodice had a slightly. rounded
neck edged with a narrow band OF
dark brown fur, and the sleeves were
long and fitted, to the arms. Adj
tional bands of fur circled them at
the wrists, and from these haring
cuffs fell over the hands. The bodice
was partially covered by an over
blouse. which crossed II on a dag
onal line and which was seemingly
fastened at one hip by an elaborate
double plaque ornament. From this
was suspended sash end of crepe.
finished with a motif of bronze beads
and fringe of bead strings which
swept the floor.
Later Nine. Kalich wore a tea gown
of canary-yellow chiffon. with a gilet
OF exquisite cream -colored lace. The
filmy sleeve draperies fell to the
ground, while a long, imposing train
Of chiffon trailed in the rear. A
filigrecd ornament served as fasten-
ing at the side front and added the
only touch of trimming.

bons fell from one shoulder and ex-
tended below the waist line at the
back of the frock to add the final
touch of trimming.
Rosetta Duncan's gown was of Jade
green velvet, effectively ornamented
with flowers and lace. The bodice was
cut with a square neck. and included
wide shoulder straps. for, of course.
there were no sleeves. The skirt had
rounded apron-like panels at the
front and back. and long circular side
pieces scalloped at the lower edges.
Ribbon flowers, in shaded tones of
rose, blue and gold. were appliqued
on the front panel, reaching almost
to the girdle at one side, but stopping
several inches lower on the other.
The girdle itself was exceptionally
interesting.
1t was fashioned from a rather
wide fold of gold lace and, instead
Of being crushed around the waist,
the lace was gathered into a bouffant
fiounce. which yelled the velvet like
a miniature overskirt. Then at the
side back the two ends were knotted
into careless bow, which dropped

length of the skirt.
