forenoon, and the tents were raised in
the common beyond the Hotel Mar

money. Considering the admission, it
is every whit as good circus as Fore
paugh's exhibition to spectators at Ish-
peming for dollar a head.-Marqnefte

The reopening of the Standard
Theater on Saturday evening was at
tended by large audience. The pro-
duction Of the 'Silver King" was in
every way satisfactory. Marlande Clark

much force and vigor, and in some OF
the strong scenes with his wife Nellie
| portrayed acceptably by Nellie Stat
| ford), was very effective. The Taikes OF
Louis r. Maddox, the C0om6e of Cuth-
bert Cooper, and the Spider of Charles
! Marriott, were well taken, as were all
! the minor characters. The scenery was
very fine, and with the exception of
one or two unimportant bitches, worked
smoothly.-lNiL7vaukee EOenlng Wiscon-
