crowded house to the Grand Opera House

The difficult shooting in the third act by

Heavy Loss.

There is a nice little story going the
rounds about q young man who woke up
the other night and heard some one in his
room. He wa on the point Of jumping
up when he remembered hat he had left
his revolver in the adjoining room, and as
he didn't care TO he hacked to pieces i'll the
dark by some unknown burglar be laid
still until the noise subsidized. He then
took courage and made al investigation.
He found all his jewelry.and other property
safe, but his pants were missing and he
found them lyiug in the hall. G~rssping them
eagerly, he mmmed his hand into the pocket
where he knew he had ielt $27.60. Great
Scots 1t was gone, and the man who had
taken it was ditto. That was pretty
tough, but he gave thanks that his pants
had been left, and when he came down
street yesterday morning, he had to stand a
man off for a package Of cigarettes until he
could raise the dust. He made the raise
though, and Richard is himself again.
Names are withheld rs the victim thinks
he has a clue to the thief.

The Wives of Weinberg.

One morning we were talking of
women of some German town, who, on
being told by the commander who had
taken 1t, that each might carry away
with her the most precious thing she
possessed, elected to bear forth their
husbands. Was Weinberg the name
of the town? | have forgotten. Mr.
Grey said he saw nothing particularly
noble or admirable in this, because the
wives took with them what they liked
best. | said that their unanmity ON
the subject of husbands appeared SO
impossible as to make me skeptical
about the truth of the story. Mrs.
Trois Etoiles, whose husband was
lust an expense" as the old Scotch
woman said of hers, remarked that
three-fourths of the women would
doubtless have been delighted to leave
their husbands behind and take their
jewel-caskets instead, and would have
done so but for the inconvenient ex-
ample set by the others and the force
of public opinion. Charley looked at
Maude and said the husbands were
selfish brutes to let their wives carry
such burdens. They had them STRAP
ped on their backs, you know, Amy.
Mrs. Grey quietly said she wondered
if the men made much OF little of their
wives afterwards. She thought they
would probably feel so secure of their
helpmates' devotion that they would no
longer value it. saw Mr.. Grey look
sharply at her, He is rather dis
agreeable, satrical. selfish man, as you
know. Lila, in her harsh way, said to
Fred, 81 couldn't carry you far, you're
so fat. ."-Madge ia London Truth.
