The . Clement-Keefer Company.
The aoove-named company on
Saturday night completed a three
nights engagement in this city.
On Thursday and Friday nights
they presented "A Mountain Ro
mance" - and "A Bachelors
Honeymoon," respectively. Both
these plays were greeted with
fair sized audiences and the per
formances were above the aver-
age. uiinton a. iioya ana Miss
Alice Hoxsey played the leading
parts and their acting was worthy
of credit.
Friday's evening bill was
"Resurrection," a strong drama
in five acts, to which Clement
Keefer Company have the coast
right. With a large stage and
proper scenery, this play would
be hard to excel, but should not
be attempted except in large
cities. Nevertheless under the
circumstances, the company
bandied it in an able manner.
A Father's Pathetic Search.
Last Thursday's Evening Tele-
gram contained a long article
from Walla Walla regaridng the
pathetic case of R. A. Shinn, of
Monroe, this county. As the
story goes, Mr. Shmn, was a
sheep herder in the mountains in
the wilds of Salmon river, in
Northeastern Oregon, and upon
going to camp one day, Shinn
found a note scrawled by the
camptender stating -that his
(Shinh's) boy was in the Walla
Walla hospital, and was dying of
typhoid fever. That was enough
for the faithful parent, and not
thinking of the hardships he had
to endure he walked-to Dayton,
Wash , a distance of 6o miles,
and from there he went on the
train to Walla Walla, where he
began search for his son, but
after inquiring at the hospitals
and of the . doctors in Walla
Walla, the distracted father could
find no clue to his son. Know
ing that his boy is dying and not
knowing where to find him, has
made the father wild with grief.
The young man's name is Ar
thur and Jie is 22 years old. The
parties are well-known in this
county. '
