"Around the World in Eighty DAYS.

~ Oufu VIC 'OfIu VI CIRntt Lays.
Ifattendance at play can be taken
as criterion, "Around the World in
Eighty Days may be at once put down
as the hit of the season, as the audience
which greeted it crowded the house
from pit to dome, and standing room
was in demand. "Around the World
in Eighty Days" possesses the ele-
ments necessary for a grand spectacu-
lar production, but the expectations
of the audience were not disappointed
last night. The scenery, good deal of
which the company brings with it, is
quite good, and the three principal
characters received quite good deal
of applause. In the second act a corps
of coryphees, dressed as amazons, went
through an excellent drill, which was
warmly received, as it deserved.
"Around the World in Eighty Days"
will be repeated tonight, and the man
agement of the Academy give notice
that they have made arrangements to
have the returns of the election read

1t seems that some of II citizens
are displcascd at the action of our
worthy sheriff in refusing TO permit
the exhibition of I. X. Durk's combi-
nation in This place some weeks ago.
We feel quite sure that he simply did
his duty under tho law, and that his
conduct deserves commentator in
stead OF condemnation. He Is not re-
sponsiblc for the law, and should not
be held accountable If its rigid cx-
ecution neutrality-suspicious. 10 those
who wish TO ~patronize shows and en-

states the amount of license to be paid
by ex hibitors, and it is entirely OPP

can afford TO pay 1t or not. If they
teel that they cannot afford to pay the
license, the sheriff has no right TO abate

daughter of Mr.. f.. Aleck and Mrs NJ. Il.
Krebs, aged d years, 8 mouths and y days.
Scarce six bright summer had crowned
little Delphine's head with sunshine, Ger
the shadow fell and her sweet spirit passed
beyond the ether blue. Folded the pale,
cold hands over the pulseless breast, and
the little feet are at rest. Under the sod
they land her to sleep till the trump shall
sound at the last day. One less in the
home to cherish, one less to stoop down
and kiss good Knight when the evening
prayers have all been said, one less to
gladden. the hearthstone, as the girIish
lips speaks the name of mama and papa,
morning, noon and Light. But in heaven
there IS one more angel to sing Coda
praise. In heaven one more link in the
golden chain.
To the bereaved parents we extend our
sympathy, praying that God will speak
peace to their aching hearts and soothe
toe T soi1ow, as He only can.
