The Keltnatb Falls Herald of tbe

PASSIONPLAYCOM
ING TO LVKEV1EW
Something that Old and
Young Shonld See
The management of the Arcadia
theatre are preparing to give the peo
ple of Lakeview ao opportnnty to
witness the Passion Play, aa given
now-a-days by tbt ijarvaran peasants
at Oberammergau.
Tbe history of this play ia interest
ing. The Hist Psssioo Play of wbicb
there is any record was in the fourth
century, A. D. , among th Or eks,
and was called "Cbristos Paschou".
AH through the middle ages different
dramas ot this nature were portiayed,
cbiefly by relig ioua orders. Dormit
tbe crusades many similar plays were
given for the purpose of stimulating
tbe people to activity in tbe saving of
tbe Holy city from tbe bands ot the
Saracens.
inl&tt tbe peasants in tbe village of
Oberammergau, in Bavaria, were
visited by a terrible plague, wbicb
devastated their country. On its
cessation tbe entire popu-ation made
a vow to perform tbe Passion Play of
our Saviour eveiy tenth year, out of
gratitude, and as a meaus of a reli
gious instruction a- vow wbicb bas
ever since beeu regularly auu raitb
fully observed. The inhabitants of
this secluded village have a rare
union of ability and cultivation, with
perfect simplicity. Their familiarity
with religious subjects is even
beyond what is usual in tbe Alpine
parts of Germany, and tbe spectacle
is looked on with tbe same feelings
with wbicb It originated. What
would appear elsewhere as impious is.
to these peasants, devout and edify
ing. The impersonator of Christ con
eiders his part an act of worship. He
and all toe rest who are to participate
in the enactment are selected for their
holy lie. and are consecrated to their
work with prayer and fasting. In
tact, it is tbe ambition of every child
in the village to act a part in this
great tvent of their life, aud in order
to do so they must show by their
daily life that tbey are wortbv of
such an honor.
Every village girl bas an ambition
to portray tbe part of Mary, tbe
Mother of Christ. They believe that
in order to attain this they must not
do anything contrary to the virtuous
and pure character required for tbe
part of tbe Mother of our Saviour
Not to be considered tit to take part,
however snail, in tola graud play Is,
in Oberammegau, considerd 1 1 be
sreat disgrace. To take a part away
from an actor is a shame that cau
hardly be borue, and it is on record
that once a man to whom this happen
ed sank into such a melancholy con
dition that be finally became mad.
When properly equipped and
presented there is not an attraction
before tbe world to day iu the way of
an entertainment, so impressive, so
pleasing, so soul-stirring and heart
reacbiug. and so uplifting in tbe
future morailty of some inidviduala
as in this wonderful creatiou in mov
ing picture form. That it is doing
tbe world great good uooce can deny
In order to give tbe people of Lake

oountry an opportunity to see this

The Shirk auto was occupied by

FIGURES
TO SIDE-TRACK
PORTLAND
Wants a Down-Hill Haul
From Central Oregon
to San Frencisco
The following taken from tbe Pert
laud Journal of tbe 4tb Inst., is just
what the Examiner bas maintained
all the time, that when both Hill and
Ilarriman get ready to invade this
sectiou, tbe one thing tbat will appea
to them moHtj will be the water-level
and from Lakeview to Sacramento,
instead of over tbe mountains to Port
land. It says : .
On June 1 tbe Ilarriman lines an
nounce trains will be runuinu over
tbe California He Northeastern into
Klamath Falls. This line connect!
Klamatb witb tbe main line of tbe
Soutbren Pacific at Weed and brings
tbe greater part of Sontbern Oreugn
tributary to San Francisco.
Announcement is also made by tbe
Hariman linei tbat contracts have
been let tbe Uth Construction Com
pany for a 29 mile exteneion of tbe
Minidoka A Southwestern from Twin
Falls, Idaho, southwest towards
Wells, Nev., on the Southern Pacific.
This line will bring to San Francisco
the trade of southwestern and central
Idaho, a oountry on a water grarie
level witb Portland.
The Southern Pacific expects to
have tbe Sacramento Southern com
peted from oacramento to Freeport
and in operation by June 1.
Tbe Short Line, from San Fran
cisco to Santa Cruz, through tbe
Santa Clara Valley will, it ia an
nounced be opened by June 1.
No announcement is made, however,
as to how soon work on tho Deschutes
line in Oregon is to begin, or wben
work will be reenmmec. ed on tbe
Cooa Cay line in Westren Oregon.
Tbe Klamatb Falls line ia at present
completed to Holland, in th center
of Lower Klamatb Lake and connec
tion is made witb Klamatb Falls by
steamer. As soon as trains are oper
ated into tbe city of Klamatb Falls
tbe traffic of tbat part of Oregon con
tiguous to Klamatb will be hauled
directly to San Frencisco.
Work bas been aobotrized on a line
to run from tbe Klamatb line to Al
turas, on tbe Nevada, California A
Oregon. This will also be a feeder
for tbe Frisco line of tbe Soutbren
Pacific.
Tbe line from Twin Falls. Idaho,
to Wells, Nev., work upon wbicb is
to begin at once, is through a coon
try compard to wbicb the eastern
OregoD "desert" is a bloooming para
dise. No propositions for tbe citi
zens of southern Idaho and northern
Nevada to guarantee the line as a
money maker bas been "put up by,
Ilarriman .however.
According to tbe engineers of tbe
government reclamation service tbe
exercise of tbe slightest diligence of
tbe powerful agents of Harriman in
Washington shonld bring about tbe
approval of tbe 100 miles of govern
ment land for right of way wbicb is
tbe last mountain in tbe path of tbe
construction of tbe Deschutes line.
Whether it ia that tbe Harriman
repiesentati tea fear to bring about
tbe disapproval of the employes of
the laud office by asking them to
harry or whether tbey are merely
fencing for time in which to complete
the California, Nevada, Utah and
other lines is a questiou tbat has not
yet been answered..
PROFITS IN THE
DAIRY BUSINESS
Experience of Two Men
of Small Means
The possibilities of dairy farming
in Pacific County, Wash., and for
tbat matter, io all Western Washington
and Oregon, are pretty well illustra
ted by tbe following faot:
Sis years ago Marion and Leonard
Hobi leased UO acres of land in tbe
Xeina Valley, a few miles from Soutn
Bend, Washington,' and begau dairy
farmiug on a small scale. Last week
tbey decided to relinquish tbe place
and ' their settlement betweeu each
other and Frank Hobi disclosed tbe
fact tbat they bad cleared during tbe
six years tbe snug Httl.i fortune or
looOO. Tbe men ami their families
secured a good living from the 80
acres during the six years with a net
acuual profit of moie' than 11000 a
year. 1
