public the Tempieton Opera Company.
who gave such a delightful rendition of
the Mascot at Opera Hall last night. In
fact, it is rare that so good performance
was good, the acting in the leading roles
very fine, and the costumes beautiful, in

SOMETHING WORTH SEE-NG:-Professor
Burks educated troupe of performing
horses is something we'll worth seeing.
We have seen nothing but the most fatter-
ing notices in the papers, and must con-
clude that these remarkable beasts are as
wonderful in the intelligence displayed by
| them as claimed in the bills and posters
about town. There are said to be 20 Of the
handsomest horses, ponies and mules ever
seen together, and it is claimed that in
| their performances there is more to adj
mire, more to praise, more to see, more to
| laud, more to appreciate, more to APP
plaud, more to cheer, in this than any
| other show ever organized. 1t is given out
as the most entertaining, the most respect
able, the most diversified, the most unique,
| the most extraordinary, the most SatiSfac-
| tory, the most pleasing entertainment ever
| witnessed The exhibition will be given
| under a large tent and the price Of admis-
| sion will be only % cents. There will be
| good seats and the ladies and children are
especially invited to attend. Clergymen
and church members 60 to see the wonder
i full educated horses. There is nothing but
an exhibition Of brute intelligence-horses
! and mules that understand the human lali-
! guage and act at the word OF command
doing many marvellous things.

along the highway was sure of hearty
welcome lit was here that the needy came
with an assurance of not being turned
away empty handed, and where the poor

Her life resembed an unbr0ken strain OF
soft, sweet music her heart like a mirror

energy were coupled with forbearance ano
patience her modesty was as remarkable
as her discretion, and her spirit was one OF
the most unselfish, self-saerifcing, genial
gentle and lovable that we have ever
known to animate the human breast.
The final summons came but it found hel
