SCENE FROM THE THIRD ACT OF "THE TAMING OF THE SHREW"
It is at a frank and uncompromising
humorist that Shakespeare presents him
self in "The Taming of the Shrew." Yet
behind the rollicking fun there is a vein of
serious suggestion, and the paet asserts
himself at the clou most gracefully in
his tribnta to true martial devotion. Al
though tbe play is .farce of the mast un
compromising type, rt, requires an actor
of fine artistic comprehension to flay the
role Petrachio acceptably. Petruchio is.
despite his blustering masquarade. a gen
tleman and an sc.or who conveyed no
other impression than, that of tnt biistsr
ous ruffian ha assumed to be would be
but a faint ani msa:isfact?ry one of tie
big-hearte J. vrliole aoulei su tor of a cap
tious lady's hand. And the captious lady
herself is a combination of opposed traits.
Though 'iraw, she must be winsome
and capable when won of as mucn wom
anly devotion the ' was at first of in-
aj'iordhslion. Clar es B. Hanford is ona
o the few actors to make Petruci-iio a
ciarsitsr as strong m its hu norout appeal
as t is in its artistic aspec:. Miss Marie
Deaf lah w o, assumti wi role of Kath

- Mr. Hanford will appiar at Steward's
opera house on Saturday Teb. 3, in this
marry p'.ay.
DOUBLE BILL
The curtain will ring up promptly at
igh't thirty and a delightful curtain raiser
will be presented in which both Mr. Han
ford and Miss Drofnah will appear. The
curtain raiser is used in order that those
wio by reason of their occupation will oe
unable to come to the theatre at that
early hour may come late and still not be
compelled to miss any of the "Taming of
the Shrew." Tha title of the first pieca
it "The Old Guard." This is taken from
an episode of the battle of Waterloo which
Victor Hugo hat to tplendidly described.
Mr. Hanford is always ready and willing
to give hit patrons a full measure for
thsir money and realizing that his appear
ance here falls upon a Saturday evening,
he hae consented to give this double bill
in order that all may be able to hear all
of the "Taming of the Shrew."

THE BOY AND MOTHER NATURE
The best nurse for a boy it Mother
Earth, either dry or wet The closer to
her he sticks, the better man he it likely
to be in the end the truer, the more
straight-forward, the healthier.
The separation from the toil which
the trend of modern civilization seems to
be making absolute, especially in the case
of the city boy. and more and more so in
the case of the country boy, since he it
being led to look toward the c ty and
copy its ways. this trend cannot be
but harmful for the youngsters, and there
is need for much insistence and demon
stration on this point
The boy and Mother Nature. it cannot
be too often reiterated are frienis, and
all he wants is an opportunity to associate
with her. Give him a chance, let him go
camping, live in the country, if all the
year around, so much the better, certain
ly in the summer. Let him get to know
the world. animals, birds, trees. by
growing up with it, and do not cramp
his physical, mental and moral stature
by substituting for the living green earth
and its friendly creatures, dirty asphalt
streets and the dingy brick walls. The
boy should have the open world as a
birthright and h our present conditions
of society rather restrict this inheritance
it should be the aim of those into whose
hands the management of his affairs are
temporarily placed, to see that he gets as
much of it as possible. Vivian Burnett
in The Craftsman.
THE GUNNISON TUNNEL
Over one and one-quarter miles of the
Gunnison tunnel has been completed. The
work of construction is being pushed at
three openings, one at the river end, an
other at the valley end, and a third at the
bottom of a shaft 246 feet deep, located
one mile from the valley opening. Last
month the workers progressed over forty
feet per day. The government expects
to have the tunnel completed by the fall
of 1908.
