The play will be repeated this afternoon and evening. At the matinee twenty-five cents will admit to all parts of the house.
 MIR. CABLES READINGS.
 Those who did not hear Mr. Cable at his first reading here in December are fortunate in being able to hear this time '.Posson Jone," in which the author displays at his best his remarkable dramatic power. The Boston Advertiser in speaking of this says ''But in Posson Jone' Mir. Gable achieved real and complete triumph. The strange, broad open mouthed dialect of the parson from West Florida, with it's slow, soft vowel sounds, its strange syntax, and it's quaint vulgarisms of phrase was matched with the most appropriate facial expression, action and gesture, and the artists true power ap- peared in the fact that while the humorous value of the part was felt by every listener, the nobility, purity and simple, unselfsh piety of the poor minister could not be for gotten or ignored" The sale of reserved seats for the reading opens this morning at 9 O o'ciock at Peck's bookstore.

PAINTING FOR PANTS.
The Fellow Did Not Get Them
Though.

There was a lively time at Beno's store
Saturday evening. Three men came
into the store about half-past nineo'clock
and were looking at clothing on the
second floor. Two of the trio soon went
out, but the third, in pretending to try
on some clothing, threw his old coat
down covering a pair of black pants.
After concluding not to buy, he picked
up his coat with tho pants inside of it,
and started out. Charles Beno called on
him to sto p, but instead of doing so he
kept right on, and when overtaken he
pulled billy and prepared to
fight his way out. The clerks in
the store came to the help of Beno, and
there was a lively scrimmage, in which
the follow got the worst of it. In the
tussle Beno's watch chain was broken
and he was thrown to the floor, but he
hung onto the fellow like grim death, and
soon an officer arrived who marched the
belligerent stranger to tho Jail, where he
gave his name as Duncan. He will have
u hearing to-day.

Major McCauley's head was uncovered,

to the mon to leave him as he was, half
