TWO THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND.
The Firemen's Tournament and Observa
tion of Decoration Day By the City.
Mayor Trathen and the city council
have done their part toward starting on a
good way the idea of a firemen’s tourna
ment. The state press has taken the mat
ter up and it is apparent from what they
say that many of the volunteer compa
nies of the state are expecting royal en
tertainment on July 4 at Idaho Springs.
Over the county the Georgetown Courier,
Silver Plume Standard and Georgetown
Topics are saying good words for the
proposed celebration, and even Central
City has joined and practically says that
she will enjoy herself at Idaho Springs it
the tournament is given.
The city council will aid in every way
it can and we believe from the sentiment
expressed that it will donate liberally.
All the business places realize that it will
bring them big business and they will do
nate their part. The professional men,
who would practically receive no benefit
except the advertising it would give the
city, are even willing to step to the front
and donate something for the affair. The
only thing that remains to be done is the
appointment of a representative commit- I
tee by the firemen, ■who will see that
these subscriptions are gathered in. A I
good deal will devolve upon this com
mittee and the best available timber in
the department is none too good for the
purpose.
Another matter that should receive at
tention is the proper observation of Dec
oration dav. The mayor has taken the
matter up in time and through the press
of the city has notified all lodges and so
cieties, civic and military, that they will
be expected to take part in the affair.
There should be no feeling of petty jeal
ousy. So far as the city is Concerned it
respects one organization just as much as
it does the other and favoritism will not
not be shown.
The day should be observed by the
city. Nearly every other place in the
state pays particular attention to the day
in which tribute is paid to the defenders
of the nation. Idaho Springs cannot af
ford to lag behind in this matter. Eet it
push to the front and let us exhibit the
spirit that makes a great city. We might
as well begin right now for the time is
not far distant when Idaho Springs will
step out of the present class and be listed
with the big ones.
Dashing, Roystering Petruchio.
Manager Greenleaf has given evidence
of his desire to please the best class of
theatre-goers in this city by booking
Charles B. Hanford in the scenic revival
of “The Taming of the Shrew,” which
will be seen at the Opera house on May
5. This play is regarded by authorities
as the most amusing of Shakespeare’s
comedies. There is no modern farce
which can equal it in respect to genuine
fun. Nearly every line in the play con
ceals a laugh and every situation is a
mine of merriment. As the dashing,
roystering Petruchio Mr. Hanford has
scored, it is stated, the most conspicuous
success of his career. The role of Kath
erine will be portraved by Helen Grant
ly, who has already won golden opinions
for her portrayal of this character, both
in Great Britain anu country. In
cluded in the supporting company are
Marie Drofnah, Emma Hayner, William
J. Shea, Irving Knight, Roland Gibson,
P. A. Nannary, Harold Fiske, Paul An
derson, R. O. Meech, L. W. Browning,
John C. Davis and other well known
Shakesperian artists.
Shudders at His Past.
“I recall now with horror,” says Mail
Carrier Burnett Mann, of Levanna, 0.,
“my three years of suffering from Kid
ney trouble. . I was hardly ever free from
dull aches or acute pains in my back. To
stoop or lift mail sacks made me groan.
I felt tired, worn out, about ready to give
up, when I began to use Electric Bitters,
but six bottles completely cured me and
made me feel like a new man.” They’re
unrivaled to regulate Stomach, Diver,
Kidneys and Bowels. Perfect satisfac
tion guaranteed by J. J. Sherwin. Only
50 cents. _____
