"In Wyoming" Not a Melodrama.
Love, pathos, treachery and retribu
tion, with a final happy outcome, ara
the main element of "In Wyoming,"
a breezy, idealic comedy drama of the
northwest, which will appear at the
Medford theater Monday, December 88.
The story is oue of absorbing interest
interpreted by a large, first olass coin"
;ia:iy and nutiiitod with realistls stage
settings and elaborate costumes. The
play is in four acts, and comprises a
bright, sunny summer on a ranch near
Caspor, Wyo. The play is from exag
gerated and impossible nonaenso, such aa
abounds only too often in western play.
There is so much good in "In Wyo
ming" that nri'one wondftrs at the e
traordinary success which the piece ha
enjoyed. It is all clean and wholoaorue.
Its atmosphore is refreshing and then
is nothing' suggustive in te story it
unfolds. . ' , .
Last of the Big Attraction.
. I.
Tonight is tho lust appearance of Mr.
and Mrs. Hlessing. To say they have
mado good with the audiences would
be putting it very mild. Tho lurjj
crowd nt the Blj u last night fairly
went wild' with enthusijicm. Timo and
time again Mr. and Mrs. Hlessing wore
obliged to respond to the hoarty en
.cores of u delighted audience. A big
comedy specialty tonight closes the en
gagement of these popular comedians.
Limited time between Portland and
FriBCO permits only a Bhort engngeinout,
but a big attraction will follow them.
The colohrnted Traviolas, jugglors and
hoop ri'll rs, finish thu week at tho Bi

personality that vtu!d command atten

occasions. Whatever mny hnvo been his
early educational advantages, nature
bad with a lavish hand endowed him
with some of her richest gifts. He was
naturally of a clear mind and good
judgment in the prime of his life. Al
though a man of strong convictions, he
was always ready to receivo and aet
upon the judgment of others when con
vinced of his error. He was intelligent
and well Informed upon the current
topics of the day, keeping him.iolf post
ed npon all quentio.uB of passing interest.
As a citizen he was true and loyal to
his country and especially true to bin
own city, iu whose development ho was
deeply interested, and in its educa
tional interests he was particularly in
terested. By his honorable and honest dealing
he created in all with whom ho dealt,
