the apirit-land, and week after the moth
er's burial the child was placed in her

Just after Frank J. Trnyne shot and
killed his wife at Cincinnati, the St. Louis
city council passed an ordinance making Ii
a violation oi city ordinance TOR any one 10
discharge firearms within the city limits.
The theaters here, however, lave paid no
attention TO the law, and when Charley
aud Bob Ford played here
firearms In pretty lively manner. As a
result OF their engagement, MANAGER Ed.
wards, Of the Theatre Comiqus, was arrest
ed and fined $25 for allowing the use Of
firearms In his theatre. This verdict IL ike
~ TO curtai the use OF firearms in oil plays
produced here, and may in many instanc,
spoil the effect aud cut down the audiences.
We would have had a cable railroad here
by this time, but the city council seems TO
be In league with the Missouri Street Rail-
way 90, who control all the lines running
east and west. A cable bill passed the
house, and IL looked as though
this city was 10 be blessed With that sort OF
road when the council came 10 the front
and throtted the bill. This is generally
the fate OF all enterprises calculated TO bsne-
fit the city, and this is the reason ST. Louis
is so far behind her neighbor Chicago.
Notwithstanding that this is the lenten
season, the theatres this week have been
we'll patronixed. 1.-THE Grand Annie PIX

that Hoxie cannot be spared to the system,
while others say that he Ia i'll and wants to
