Some like to explore tfcs surrounding mines, many of which still operate, or browse through the aged buildings, built since Central City's big fire in 1874, and never quite manage to get up steep Eureka street to the theater. Many home folk, including a few of the pioneers left in the old town, grumble that the committee -that reclaimed the-opera house from oblivion In 1832 should arrange to have musical comedies or airy operettas staged at the annual festivals. Replying to these critics, Director Jones, back at the helm after a three-year absence, says the pioneers who built the theater to 1878 wanted "only the best" and the best is represented by such works as this year's costume piece about a lackey who loved an unhappy Spanish queen.

The body was tied to the bed and a pillow case was stuffed down her throat with a heavy Iron pipe. Officer Rodda and Officer John Gerry, who retired in the spring of 1937, were assigned to the case. It remained for the two veteran offi cerswho comprised the famous police team of "Rodda and Gerry" for 17 years to find several scraps of torn paper In a waste basket and start the case toward solution. They took the pieces to the police station and carefully fitted them together. It was the clew which led to the capture and conviction of the murderer.

The torn paper was a copy of a telegram and when pieced the message was readable, which Offflcer Rodda recalls was addressed to Payette's mother, in Idaho. Telegraph offices were checked for a description, of. the within 24 hours police had learned his name and obtained a photograph of him from the Idaho reformatory. With that officers knew for whom they were looking and notified authorities throughout the West. Meanwhile, the fleeing Payette 'was scattering a flood of gold coins behind him, which made It easy to keep on his trail.

He was arrested in El Paso, Texas, and re- turned to Butte. On March 28, 1930 Just It days after the murder an information charging him with murder was filed and on the same day he pleaded guilty. He was sentenced to life at hard work in the Deer Lodge prison. following tne retirement of Bar ney Lavelle on May 1. 1937, Officer Rodda was named chief Jailer.

Rodda was. born in Cornwall. England, and came to America us. young man in 1895. He came directly west ano spent several years in the mining districts of Idaho, Arizona and Nevada, before coming to Butte shortly after the opening of the century and starting mining here.
