Ho has been spending several days on the Iowa sldo Investigating the workings of the high water. Ho Bald tha damage to the work which has been par tially completed la comparatively email. A temporary embankmrnt has been built to tent the weak points of the line along the river , and much of this has been washed out , as wan expected. He thinks $100 or 1300 will cover all the real damage suffered Jiy the company. At other points along the propQES.l line not exposed to the high water Mr. ( Jrafton eald the work of construction has not been Interrupted. Two Btcam shovels and 700 teams are engaged In building the grade. It IB the Intention , ho said , to have the track laid as far cast OH Loveland by July 1 , but if the high water continues to Juno 1 track laying will have to bo postponed. He said the line will ba completed and ready for operation by December 1. provided no unex pected delays occur , and If condition * are favorable it may be completed earlier than that date. In the building of this line three overhead crossings will have to bo erected over the Northwestern road , two over the main line , at Lovolnnd and near Logan , and one over a branch , at Carnovan.

The revolver exploded and Robinson backed away from the bar. Ho came back Immediately and drank hie whisky and then dropped back a second time with his hands over his abdomen , and remarked as he did so , "I guess you got me that tlmo , Fred.

" The pieces will bo repeated at tomorrow's matinee. Thursday night "Othello" will bo presented. Louis James gives a good account of himself In the rakish bonhomie of Charles Surface. It Is a role ebullient In animal spirits. Quito the contrary type is his brother , Joseph Surface , a suave , velvety , plausible man on the exterior , but veneered too thinly to disguise the other self within. The natural gifts nnd extended ex perience of Frederick Wiirdo Induces for his Jospeh the name pralso which was conceded to John Palmer , the original Joseph. It is in the volatile and delicious I.mly Teazle , however , that interest Is apt to cen ter. It Is fair , in the light of Knthryn Kld- der's singularly original nnd intricate study of Madame Sans-Oeno to expect a triumph for this gifted woman In the powdered pom padour ami brocaded petticoats of the arch tease and seductive minx , Lady Teazle.
