"Men work hard and their wives spend all the make, or else, the wife works hard and the husband spends it all- . y ' , - :' - So says one of the character In "The Spendthrift." at the Helllg, . . , It Is essentially V man's' play'. Ev ery mother's son of them whether of the ia-now-benedlct, wlll-be-sometlme or has-been state will relish It greatly. Its homilies and preachments are morsels sweet that tnj average man. and a few women, will find sweet to roll under the tongue. For It's all about the folly and extravagance of woman kind; a. eordld, almost heart breaking tale of the existence that goes on under too many American roofs. Primarily, the story is a plea for do mesticity in woman kind. "God meant women first of all to be mothers, after that to be good mothers, and after that they can ba doctors or lawyers or carpenters or suffragettes or anything they want," Is one line that is much applauded. ' The cast Is small and good In every particular. Lionel Adams is the husband, a role marked by sub stantiality and ease, and standing out notably In the " quiet methods of the artist-actor. v. ine Keynote ot Mr. Adams' entire work Is naturalness. ' v.' , Doris Mitchell, an unusually lovely woman, gives a remarkably Interest ing study of ,the spendthrift, making her an almost tactician, falling short of it only by the egregious siif-love , that compelled attention, even if '.t ' gained no admiration for the charac ter. - '. ' '' I One of tlte best bits of, the perform ance Is the work of Mattie Ferguson as the aunt,' who describes herBelf as having "one foot in the grave and one in Wall street." The play will close with the Sunday evening performance. At the Steward Thursday night. Wonderful Picture at the Isls. "Winsor McCoy," the famous car toonist of the New York Herald, and his moving picture comics is a head liner at the Isls. Winsor McCoy and a party of boon j friends Is engaged in a friendly game The subj.ct of moving pictures is then broached. Winsor says he feels pos1 j tlvo that he can produce drawings that will move. One month later he has 4.000 drawings ready for the Vit agraph company's camera. He shows them characters from his "Littl Nemo" series.

A New York syndicate is forming; to take oyer and develop 300 acres of our finest land and a local company will be formed to put out another 20) acres in pears and. apples. -, . , v Lost Wednsday evening a Fruitgrow ers' association was formed, which will Incorporate and elect permanent officers at once. This fruit un")R, like the rest in this vjaley has decided to sign up. wth the Northwestern Fruit ex change for the eeason and will un doubtedly place the general fruit mar keting in a much better and more re liable condition than in the past. The present condition and outlook for a crop is somewhat reduced from last year's abnormally heavy crop, the several freezes In April thinned our cherries too much, and less than half of last year's crop may bo figured on. All kinds of berries are In excellent condition, and so far promise a full crop. Some peaches and plums were also injured considerable, but most varie ties will have a fair crop. ' The Italian and other prunes, of which Cove annually' produces from ."550 to 400 tons, fresh, will be only slightly reduced. The apple crop was uninjured by the bearing, and the semi-annual quality for bearing, in many varieties of ap ples, the crop will be considerable smaller than a year go; but, this does not men that Cove cau't or won't pack more boxes of this fruit than last year because better care and more careful spraying can Increase the output 10 cars over last year.
