This editorial has the ring bells like unto the rail of the Gosiiel in the Church tower on an Easter 13S W. First South Street, 8s It Lake City, Utah. morning. It should engage the attention of those whose duty It is, and if POWER they have, they ought to give you light and plenty of it. You know God said, l,et there lie light and there was light, because He couldnt see to do very much without it. Here in Ogden we have light, but we would use twice as much If it were not so expensive. In I.ogan I understand that light is so cheap that they in the lamps burn all day in order to help the sun in its beneficent work of giving life and growth to the city. Why it is that Ogden lias to pay so many times more for light (which is so desirable and essential) than Ind. Phone 615 E, gan, 1 do not know. Do you?

Washington restaurant la a good Lulu Glaser Wanted It Understood She Was Not Trying to Impersonate Stage Manager. Laughing Lulu Glaser had the laugh turned on her recently when she was caught In boy's clothing at a rehearsal. Its one thing for a particular woman to wear masculine attire in a play or opera, or even at a dress rehearsal, but to be seen In the garb of a lord at an ordinary rehearsal, when everybody else Is in conventional dress. Is quite another thing altogether. The funny part of the situation was that two or three unthlnk-rparson- s assumed Miss Glaser was so appareled purposely because It was her first appearance as Is stage di- rector. She had volunteered to rehearse a new company which was being organized to present the new operetta "Mile. Mischief4 In the larger towns and smaller cities, places which are not Included In Miss Glaser's tour, which takes her only to the very big centers. Miss Glaser was quick to assure everybody, however, that nothing was further from her mind than to dress as a man merely because she was doing a man's work. "I am not going to wear men's clothes because I am a stage manager, was her explanation, shrinking at the same time as far as she could in the boy's garments she wears in the second act of 'Mile. Mischief. to try on I came here early this suit, which did not exactly fit and upon which 1 am having some alterations made. Then you all came running in and didnt give me a chance to change, and here I am. When you come to rehearse tomorrow you will find me a perfect lady once more. . to-da- y GLIMPSES OF THE STAGE. Eddie Foy has gone Into vaudeville one-aburlesque on "Hamlet." One of the latest burlesques In New York Is called "The Cheeslest Way. The Shuberts are to produce sometime in the summer season a new musical piece called "The Motor Girl. Thomas Jefferson may make a vaudeville tour in some of his late father's successes In a condensed form. William Fsversham and Julie Opp with their two children, will pass the summer at their country home In Sussex, England. James K. Hackeit, after a brief summer plunge Into vaudeville, will star next season under the direction of Charles Frohman. Bill Traetell, s remarkably clever tory of theatrical life in the early days, recently published, is to be dramatized for stage production next fall. Miss Bianci Froellch, late prlma ballerina of the Metropolitan Opera house, has gone into vaudeville. In her act she Is assisted by seven dancers, Including Maja d'Alrarex, the famous Spanish beauty. Gabriel d'Annunzio's new play, "Fe-dr- a produced at Milan, Italy, recently, was decidedly disappointing. D'Annunzio wrote the play in 17 days. Maude Adams, by a recent performance at the Empire theater, completed the first sfz months' run in New York of What Every Woman Knows." A new play, said to be genuine posthumous work of Ibsen, has been produced In Berlin. The play Is called "The King and is a political satire. with a ct l!nro-ant- ic Combination Responof Pret- sible for Stage Career ty Mary Mannering. "An unronianiic combination of chickjox and measles is responsible for my going on the stage. says Mary Mannering, the beautiful young actress, English by birth, but American by adoption. "Up to this important illness 1 was a school girl, with only the dlssipaticn of an occasional matinee to keep alive the longing to get beyond that mystic row of fool lights that every young girl feels at some period of her early youth. "But chicken pox and measles changed everything. It was well on toward the end of the term when the doctor cessed his visits and 1 was pronounced cured. For that reason my parents did not think it worth while to send me back to school for the few remaining weeks. Instead, I was allowed to give some final sittings to an artist who had begun my portrait before I was taken 1U. "One day a lady, who was a member of Kyrle Bellew and Mrs. James Brawn Potter's company, visited the studio, and, seeing my portrait on the easel, exclaimed: Why thats exactly the Greek head that Mr. Bellew wants for the new piece! I found later that it was only the head that was needed, and that but two lines went with it, still I saw glittering visions of greatness already within my grasp when, after seeing first my pic-ur- e and then me, Mr. Bellew offered rt. me the "The play In which I made my first appearance was 'Hero and Leander, I had no difficulty in committing my part, hut I have entirely forgotten the last half of It. The first half was: Let us play,' and the other half was just as difficult. Still It was a beginning, which was really the Important thing. I never went to school again, or, rath er, since that time I have been a student In the great school of the stage, with Its many and varied lessons, its and Its hard puzzling problems worked for promotions." en Truly a Deadhead. It haa remained for Robert Mantell to discover the champion deadhead of the world. For years whenever Mr.' Mantell has visited New York he has received a request from an old acquaintance for a pair, and Invarl ably he has replied favorably. Two seasons ago his acquaintance became an Invalid, but upon Mr. Man tell's arrival he found a note from the I am too ill to hospital aa follows: use seats myself, but will you kindly send me a pair for my nurse, who is a good fellow? Mr. Mantell granted the request on that occasion and again last season in behalf of the nurse. Ills friend failed rapidly, and by the time Mr. Mantel began his engagement at the New Amsterdam this season the patient was reported to be dying. Nevertheless, on the opening night of the engagement Mr. Mantell found this note at the theater: By the time you receive this message I shall probably be dead. I have arranged all my affairs. Including my funeral, which will be In charge of an undertaker named Applegate. He is a splendid fellow, and I wish that yon would send him a pair for some nigbl this week."
