Fourth street Monday evening.
There is some talk of building variety
theatre in this city, on the site OF the old
coop of gralneries or converting them
into a play house of some sort. 1t IS not a

fa.kers started up in great shape with a

his offerings in this line will come to light,
and he will doubtless have cases enough
against him to send him over the road for q
Gong term of years.
