ALL"
Some animals are age-struck,
sometimes at a very early age. One
night at the Civic Repertory Theatre
a strange little dog was given her
first chance at a major role. and
made good. by reason Of her own
determination to have a stage career.
She had been found a few nights before
by the ushers as they turned back the
seats to rescue lost gloves and pro-
grams. Under one seat wet little
puppy was shivering. Something had
to be done with her so Miss Chandler,
the stage manager, agreed to give her
refuge for the night. BY morning it
was apparent that Betsy had real
talent and she was given a part in
The Cherry Orchard" supporting
Madame Nazimova. There she was an
instant success and when she was
taken on tour. she waited expectantly
for her mistress to say, Come on.
Betsy, you're playing tonight"
Amos and Andy were two fluffy
yellow ducklings given to Miss lie Gal
ienne for an Easter present. They
have grown now to enormous size
and are undergoing preliminary train
ing in voice, diction and breathing,
waiting for their great opportunity to
come.
While some of the company are
real stage aspirants and are jealous of
those who have already arrived be-
fore the footlights and have had their
names printed on the program, there
are others who are quite content to
remain the routine actors they are
Nanny, the goat Rosy, the COW. and

stardom, and yet they may all be
latent actresses. Nobody yet knows

4 IHEN Eva lie Gallienne re-
NM hearses with her company
v at her farmhouse in West
port, Connecticut, she keeps a second
company in reserve from which she
can draw any extras who are needed to
fill particularly difficult parts. This
second company covers wide range
in temperament as well as in size and
complexion and type. From this COM
pany have come the famous Dinah,
the cat. and Phoebe, the pig, in "Alice
in Wonderland" and Props, the
canary in Cradle Song"
The stock company at Westport
consists of Chico. the Chihuahua dog.
Heather, the Cairn terrier. Victoria.
the dowager queen of the large cat
colony which includes Dinah. Sambo
and Rebecca. Then there is Nanny.
the goat, Rosy, the COW. and her
two calves. Also in this second COM
pany are some who don't aspire to
character roles, like Amos and Andy,
two snow-white ducks. and three
young pigeons lately come to live in
the white-washed barn.
The death of the most seasoned
trouper Of them all. Tosca. a Cairn
terrier lovingly called Granny by
Miss lie Callienne, has saddened the
company. Tosca was thirteen and had
never been separated from her mis-
tress. She was equally at home in
dressing-room, on train. on a ship
or at the headquarters of the company
in Westport. Chico has temporarily
taken Tosca's position as director of
the company. "Of course no one can
ever fill Granny's place." says Miss
lie Callienne. For a year or more
Chico has Travelled with me. and
Heather has been trained, too"
Responsibility weighs heavily on
Chico's shoulders and because of his
great attachment to his mistress he
strives to do his very best. When he
goes to rehearsals he keeps an eye on
the company and makes frequent sur
veys to see that each one is in his
accustomed place.
When the rehearsal starts Chico is
all attention. He sits very tense in
the front row and is dreadfully af-
fected by certain emotional scenes.
When they are over he applauds with
enthusiastic barks.
Heather is, as yet, still a little
tightly and irresponsible, but everyone
is hoping to see her develop some of
the qualities which made Granny such
a seasoned trouper. And Granny now
lies sleeping quietly down IN the old
garden. buried under a mass of peri
winkle.
Of the cats there are three genera
tons living happily under one roof.
Victoria, the eldest. Dinah, her daugh-
ter. and Rebecca and Sambo. the
male lead. Sambo recently had to have
a leg amputated. but now he gets
about surprisingly well on the remain
ing three. Victoria is the mistress of
the house just as Chico is director of
the company. She manages to keep

Memorial Day

"Thou shalt MISUNDERSTANDING 1915.
Memorial Day reminds US that we
are citizens of nation with noble
lineage of patriot martyrs who gladly
hazard their lives that they might
bequeath to US, their descendants, a
country in which every person might
enjoy the inalienable rights Of life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
And Memorial Day reminds US of all
the patriots and martyre of every
land and age who sacrificed their lives
for the welfare of their fellowmen and
the service of their God.
Perhaps the most eloquent tribute
paid by the grateful living to the heroic
dead was expressed by Pericles, of
Athens, in his Grafton in honor of the
Greeks who defended with their liv-
ing bodies the liberty Of their little
land against the invading hordes of
Xerxes:
each one, man by man, has won
lmperiShable praise, each has gained
a glorious grave-not that sepulcher
of earth wherein they lie, but the liv-
ing tomb of everlasting remembrance
that will live on the lips, that will
bloom in the deeds of their country
men the world over. For the. whole
earth is the sepulcher of heroes;
monuments may rise and tablets be
set up to them in their own land, but
on far-off shores there is an abiding
memorial that no pen or chisel has
traced; it is craven not on stone or
brass but on the living heart of hui
mainly. ....,..
"Take these men, then, for your ex-
amples. Like them remember that
prosperity can only be for the free;
that freedom is the sure possession Of
those alone who have the courage to
defend it." 'f.f'f 'f-r a.,

County Commissioners Take Excep-
ton to Statment Recently Pub
lished With Respect to Expendi-
lures for Rapeair Of Court House
and Jail.
To the Editor of The Republican.
In a recent issue of The Mountain
Democrat there appeared statement
to the effect that. the County Com
missioners had expended the sum of
S3,300.41 for painting the Court House
and Jail. This statement is entirely
incorrect and in order that the false
impression created by such statement
may be corrected and the facts brought
to the attention of the public we
would very much appreciate it if you
would give space to the following facts
in connection herewith:
The amount spent for labor in paint
ing the inside and outside of both the
Court House and Jail was $1,725.89.
The amount expended for; paint and
supplies was $5S8.07, or "a total of
$2,313.96 for this work.
In the judgment of our Board this
work was necessary and we believe
that it was done as cheaply as posi-
bic. We not only believed ourselves
that this work should have been done,
but recent grand juries also recon-
mended that this painting work be
executed. ,.,... ...
We invite and solicit fair criticism,
but we do not feel that such erroneous
statements should be 'allowed to stand
without correction.
Sincerely yours,
THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS.

reduced fares to the lowest rate in rail
history, effective June 1.

roads to reduce passenger fares to 2
cents a mile in day coaches, signalized

had been waged for years by the B.

Twenty-three other eastern railroads

Two Teams Will Meet fol First Time This Season
 on Local Diamond

With the weather man smiling, the Elks and Douglas teams tan gle in the second tussle in the race for 1886 baseball honors of Cas- tineau Channel. Preseason dope sheets figure the two teams evenly matched and prirned for a real battle when they meet tonight at 6::30 on the Juneau diamond. Manager Walt Andrews has nom mated Claud Erskine and M Pet erson as the starting battery for Douglas. Manager MacSpaddens choice for the Elks will probably show Big Mac" on the mound and Kelly Blake doing the receiving. Although the Douglas squad was defeated by the Juneau Cardinals in an early training game, they showed a fine defensive lineup and now with several more practice games under their belts. their slug gers are beginning to connect. The | main feature of the Elks practice sessions has been the long dis tance hitting of their murderer row" all of which promises big evening for those who like to see the ball sailing to far places, al though with Erskine hurling for the Islanders the Elks clouters may have their troubles.
 The players, as they will prob ably take their turn at the plate in tonight's seveninning contest are:
 { Douglas-M. Peterson, catcher M Jenson, second base; R. Bon ner, third base; c. Erskine, pitch CT; w. Andrews, First Base; E Roller, Shortstop; J. Niemi, Cen terfield A. Balog, Left Field; H Gallwas, Right Field.

 The Matanuska project, in which he is keenly interested, Dr. Gruen- ing believes is the forerunner of similar projects for the Territory. As a member of the Board of Di- rectors of the Palmer undertaking and staunch supporter of all de- velopment for Alaska, the Director expressed confidence in the pro- ject and said it was one of the things he is especially studying while in the north. In addition to the Matanuska Valley, the Kenai Peninsula also is being considered as are other places in Alaska for possible colonization with the thought foremost of building up the population, he said
 Asked if he could state where other colonies might be located, Dr. Gruening replied, that is one of the things am going to take up with the Governor and study while I'm up here"
