merit OF these ladies by frequent and hearty
applause. Miss Thompson is an old favorite
here, but her support is nearly all new. Tho
company Us whole is excellent and ANYTHING
they attempt must be first class. To-nisLt tia
bill is the "Hunchback' Mrs. Bowers will
appear az Julia aud Miss Thompson ss Helen.

At the Metropolitan theatre last night the
play entitled, THE Lady Of Lyona' was pro-
duced with Mr. Fred Bryton in the character
Of Claude Melnotte. The play was finely
mounted and the attendance fair. Mr. Bry-
tons Claude was very good, and the Pauline Of
Grace Garland all that anyone could ask fo1.
The support was nicely cast for proper pro-
duction of the play, and all present seemed
we'll pleased. Tonight tho old time favorite,
Under the 4Gaslisht,'' will be rendered, and

HOW AN ELECTION WAS WON.
From the Maais0n Star.

FIOlll lIlG lI0UESOH OiU/,
Some years ago, Russ, our own G, w.
lived in our adjoining county of Ripley
He was then Republican in a Demo
cratic county, What his politics are
now we don't know, or care either.
We only know that he is manly, big,
hearted, genial gentleman, and that's
all we care about these times, But to
the story. Russ was the Republican
candidate for sheriff in the Democratic
county of Ripley. and, as a matter Of
course, wanted all the votes he could
get. Then, as now, he was passionately
fond of cunning and always owned a
fine gun and dogs. In his county was
an old German, we will call him Jake.
He also was a hunter and power
among "the boys" He kept a little
country doggery and his iii Auence was
worth about thirty Votes" In due time
Russ met Jake and a talk about hunt
ing and guns and dogs rather warmed
the Dutchman toward Russ, although
Jake was Democrat. Afer awhile
Russ saw one OF Jake's lahk, pot bel.
lied pointers and commenced to give
away tafy.
Jake" said Russ, that's mighty
fine dog. Where did you get him p
Jake replied to the effect that he rails
ed that kind Of dogs.
"Well, will tell you," said Russ, II
am very fond of hunting and if | am
elected Sheriff this fall shall indulge my
self in shooting to my hearts content.
If am not elected will not be able to
shoot much. will give you $50 for that
dog, Jake, if want him after the elec>
ton. Here's five dollar note to bind
the bargain" Jake licked to death at
the fine sale of his dog which was
worth about fifty cents, took the bill, and
as consequence his end of the county
gave Russ handsome majority and he
was elected, barely pulling through,
Time passed and Russ was duly install
ed in the office Of Sheriff of Ripley
county. Soon Jake put in an ar pear,
ance, dragging the unwilling cur at his
heels. '7a
"Mr. Rus" said Jake, you vos now
elected Sheriff von dis county, and here
ish dose dog Gif me my vorty.vife dol
lars"
Jake" said Russ, Il find that my
time will not permit me to hunt as much
as | thought it would; you may keep the
dog and the S. too,
Jake studied long time, then took a
long breath and said
mister Russ, pleve ID, by got, you
buy me und not my dog. Amt dr.
