Our readers are requested to read
the large advertisement of Ford's
Comic Opera company They will
present in this city for the first time
the latest of comic operas, the
Mikado. which has had the greatest
success of any musical production

characters aud events of the times,
mingled with gross caricature of
Japanese life.
Messrs. Castles Il Morrison, of the
Old Corner Drug Store, have added
to their cigar department the "Per-
lection Lighter" by which perfectly
pure flame is procured from hydro
gen gas. The flame iswithout odor or
taste, consequently insures the orig
inal flavor of the cigar, which is so
frequently destroyed by matches or
oil. Messrs. Castles Il Morrison car
ry In connection magnificent line of
cigars, etc.
One of these days we are going to
have disaster by which some one
will be Killed and great many hurt.
The proprietors of the Taylor house
aud the city authorities will be to
blame. The cd galleries, both upper
aud lower, are completely rotten and
will all come down together before
long. II ought to be looked into at
once and all pulled down. The EN-
AMINER does not believe in put ing
of the prayers until after the devil
arrives. We respectfully call City
Marshal Moore's attention to this
matter.
The most pleasant and agreeable
preparation of iron is Behrens' Aro-
matte Tonic Free from that peculiar
inky taste so common with other pre-
parations of iron now in use, COM
bined with salisaya bark, phosphorus
and the aromatics, in form accept
able to the most delicate stomach,
especially TO ladies and children. 1t
is highly recommended by the medi-
cal profession in all cases requiring
iron, purifying aud enriching the
blood, and giving color to pale and
feeble persons. Calisaya or Peruvian
bark is an anti-periodic and general
tonic, prevents return of chills and
fever. II promotes the appetite,
gives renewed strength to build up
the nervous system, and has no equal
as tonic in debility with night
swea 8. Call and get bottle at III.

The last day of the races was en-
livened by several little fiisticuffs.
Thomas Stevens and James drake
had a "scrap" that was almost with
some result. Stevens was gate-keep-
or on the track and a gentleman
wished TO go through, and was asked
to show his ticket, which he only
slightly displayed, enough however,
to satisfy the gate-keeper, but not
enough to be seen by Mr.. Drake, who
also tried to go through; and when
asked to show his ticket, said the par
ty before him had no ticket, and on
being told by Mr.. Stevens that he had,
he called him liar. Mr.. s. struck
him on the nose; ID. threw his hand
behind as il to draw, when Stevens
made quick effort to draw his "pop,"
but IL was fastened in some way. In
the meantime the bystanders soper-
ated them-so the whole matter was
only "draw.'

The thoughtfulness was much appre-
ciated.
The reporter OF the EXAMINER was

Mr.. Geo. Ogelsby returned yester-
day, from his chase after Varnell. The
hounds after a chase of fifteen miles,
lost the scent and took the back track
trail to Hillshoro. Ii is feared that
yarnell has made good his escape, but
oil will be done to capture him.
The Mikado is one of Gilbert and
Sullivan's greatest productions, and
its success everywhere 1t has been
played should recommend the patron
age of Waco.
