The opportunity for increasing calamity end multiplication of incident is missing on the stage, and th atmosphere that surrounded Pet and Kat and Philip can hardly be established in the limitations of the acting version. But enough of the original Is preserved to give to It a peculiar pathos and a poignant sincerity that is th marked feature of th Cain works. As Kat Cregon. in her unhappy love and unwelcome marriage. Miss Grace Hurt has the best part she has yet been seen In, one that calls forth her real ability. Bhe very nearly realises all that' Is in the role, and without overacting reaches th climax with apparently some fore In reserve. Her scenes with Philip and Pet are very well don. Mr. Frank G. Long plays the part of Pet QuIlUam with easy confidence, reaching his effects naturally and certainly, and making the big-hearted, loving, loyal Pete a most admirable man. Mr. Dobbins doesn't exhaust the possibilities of I'hlllp Christian. Nellie Long Is seen for the first time with th company, In th role of Nancy Joe, and proves herself a sprightly lass. Fred Frlnk and Mr. Wolfe carry the comedy with excellent results. Th piece was very well received by a large audience, and th opening augurs well for the success of the engagement.

Councilman Funkhouser says he acted under false Impressions concerning the gas tank ordinance; that he has made a per sonal examination of the matter and Is now heartily opposed to the measure, which he will help to kill Tuesday night at the regular council meeting. Mr. Fun houser nays he was not aware he was breaking faith with the Druid Hill Im provement club, as he thought that or ganization objected merely to the con struction of the tsnk In the north part of the city. "Mr. Brucker and myself went to the gas plant and made a personal Inspection of It and the surrounding property," said the councilman from the Eleventh. "I am now convinced the construction of the reservoir would be an Injustice to the sur rounding property owners and I would fight It just as they are doing if I were In their places.

SURPRISE FORJTHE SETTLERS Interesting Treat Awaits strangers Who Mar Go to Shoshone Opening. W. Armour ' Thompson of Thermopoll while In Omaha Friday waxed warm over the future of his coming city. "One of the greatest surprises In store for the people who go to Wyoming for the drawing of the Shoshone lands," said Mr. Thompson, "will be the sight of tho fa mous hot springs of Thermopolls. The history of these springs Is romantic. The government gained control of them through negotiations with the Shoshone Indians by treaty with their great chief. Washakie. Although an unschooled Indian, this prod uct of the mountains was wise enough to Insist upon the Insertion of a clause In the contract that a portion of the waters of these hot springs should be forever free for public ue. The government bought to me by former Councilman O'Brien and j 10l Quare miles of this land and made It endorsed - by a petition of business men. and I thought It was all right.

"A handsome stone bath house has ben built by the state for public use and as soon as the Burlington railroad extends It line from Worland south to Thermopolls. a distance of thlrty-flve miles, the railroads and capitalists are sure to take up these springs and make the place one of the most famous In the world. Th big spring bolls out of the bowels of the earth nt the base of a flat-topped hill which rises 250 foet above. It runs through channels which its own waters have cut to tumble over picturesque falls Into the Big Horn river, making a fall of forty feet. The water goes over these falls at the rate of I,9i0,000 gallons of water, heat,ed to 136 de. grees farenhelt. every twenty-four hours. The waters hsve been examined by all the medical experts In water analysis and pro nounced the equal of any yet discovered."

The committee on prise awards for th best kept lawns, recommended that owing to the lateness of the season In getting the lawns In proper shape that the money at one time appropriated for prlxes for the best kept lawns be not so appropriated this season, but that It be devoted to the beautlflcatlon and further equipment . of the playgrounds.
