the terrible accident. The drive to
town with the unfortunate man
was made in exactly forty minutes,
the distance being about twelve
miles. The accident is greatly re
gretted and will scare a goodly
number from hunting in the future.
WILLIAMS SCHOOL NOTES.
We thank the patrons for their
frequent visits.
Several of our pupils are out on
account of the mumps, but we are
glad to know they regret missing
their work. .
On account of Thanksgiving,
there will be no school Thursday
or Friday. A merry time to all
our boys and girls.
As there was some difficulty in
heating all the rooms from the fur
nace, two stoves have been put in
Miss Marine's room, so now, when
it is cold, we have the furnace for
the west rooms only.
Several of our boys were absent
last Friday p. m., preparatory to
the great hunt that, was to begin
next morning. All received val
uable experience, but not much
other substantial or visible reward
for their labors.
We are indebted to our friends,
Messrs. Twitty and Parker, for
beautiful 1902 calendars, for which
we wish to express our appreciation.
Seems too bad that such fine bach
elors are not making some good
woman a "hubby."
Some may wonder why our flag
has not been floating the past week.
The flag is in an undone condition
at present but soon it will be un
furled to the breeze; however, on
the inside of the building the nat
ional airs are kept floating.
Wednesday we are going to have
a Thanksgiving program after 3
o'clock, in the upper rooms, to
which the patrons are most cordial
ly invited. We want to become
I etter acquainted, believing that by
so doing we will secure a more
hearty co-operation and awaken a
greater interest in our school work.

Ha a Purpose.
Unlike most of the Sunday sup
plements of the big daily papers,
the Illustrated Magazine gotten out
by the Los Angeles Herald every
Sunday appears to have a definite
purpose. This magazine is doing
a great deal of good for the south
west by its industrial articles, and
they are intensely interesting.

At the .Silvernail Opera House.
Hundreds of local readers of
Sienkiewicz' novel, "Quo Vadis,"
will find interest in Chas. W.
Chase's dramatization of it, which
will be given at the Silvernail
opera house on November 27. Re
ports say that it has played to
crowded houses everywhere, and it
will doubtless do so here. The cast
is said to be very strong, and the
entire production a lavish, and in
many respects, a beautiful example
of scenic stage-craft. The religious
element of the play is very strong,
and the clergy of all denominations
are said to have placed their mark
of approval upon the play, pro
nouncing it a great instrument of
good, which should be listened to
by all classes.
The rendition of Hal Reid's
drama, "Roanoke," at the Silver
nail opera house last Saturday
evening, by the Russell fc Drew
company, was above the average for
troops playing through this section.
The parts of Roanoke Peyton, by
Louise Carter; Ezekiel Morse, by
Mr. Geo. M. Hayes, and Aunt
Dinah, by Miss Iva Donnetta, be
ing exceptionally well taken. The
play is Mr. Reid's masterpiece and
is a pure and realistic drama of
life in old Virginia. This class of
attractions is what the people of
Williams desire to see, and as Mr.
Silvernail is doing all in his power
to make the opera house attractive,
we will probably see many more
good shows on the boards this win
ter. The audience was of a fair
size, but could have been larger.
One of the most important pro
ductions that will be in this city
this season is Chas. W. Chase's
dramatization of Quo Vadis, which
will be seen at the Silvernail opera
house on November 27.
The vaudeville entertainment
given by Mr. John Thompson
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings
consisted of a series of impersona
tions interspersed with music and
comic songs. Mr. Thompson is a
pleasing entertainer and admirers
of comedy enjoyed a good laugh.
His musical talent is shown best on
the violin, of which instrument he
is master.
"East Lynne," a play that will
live forever, comes to the Silvernail
opera house on Nov. 26, 1901, for
one night only. It is, without
question, the greatest emotional
play of the present generation, a
drama in which the most famous
actors and actresses in the country
