In the comic opera, "Trial by Jury," 'n which the judge tells the court room spectators how be became a judge, is rated by critics as one of the cleverest songs to be found in any of the Gilbert and Sulllvon shows. In a list including the six best lyrics, the judge's song is placed second. An exceptionally great sore, full of lively humor and amazing frankness, it gives a complete picture of this unblushing judi cial jobber. The music enriches the irony. One of the merriest fellows in Gilbert and Sullivan shows, he accepts the respect and homage which English court au diences always accord the judge, nnd in return ho offers to tell them how he rose to judgeship. Gilbert's fondness for self-made men is apparent in this character. The judge makes no pretense to intellectual eminence; he ac knowledges that "of beauty he's a judge;" he confesses that he achieved his high position through marrying a rich attor ney's elderly, ugly daughter and furthermore, that as soon as he attained his high position, he managed to get rid of her. The part of the judge is taken by Frank Grubbe, who is well known to Roseburg audiences as a singer of unusual ability. Mr. Grubbe has a voice of fine quality nnd power and interprets the part of the jovial jiulgo with finesse and imagination. As an actor he is receiving the admiration of the entire cast and all who have wit nessed rehearsals of the show. The ticket sale for this opera will open the first of the week and the proceeds of this benefit affair will go to the Roseburg swimming pool fund. Miss Helene Robinson is directing the opera. , W. S.

Where the midnight winds play The wildest songs you know, And you pause to hear again; And wish not then to go. j Where the sun of midday I Shines on no spreading sail, i And no midnight lights Are hung to mark her rail. i I At dawn, when the fog Is lifting, You think she sails away, :And the phantom sailors call, j"Ahoy; there, I say." ! Then down upon her anchor iYou see her proudly lay, I For she's anchored too deep In Crater, to ever sail away. I She Is only a phantom ship Of rock, that time has worn, Out of the dreamy past Blasted, scarred and torn. G. M. Leeper. CLAD FOR EVEN A CHANCE Never feel yourself I Locked away from the world.
