Why did not the City Council abolish
the city ordinances altogether, instead OF
suspending a part Of them at almost
every meeting in order to accommodate
some "real clever fellow" who happened
to want this or that job worked throughf
1t is to be hoped that the coming Coun.
ell will, at the earliest opportunity,
make a provision that the ordinance can.
not be suspended except by a two-thirds
or t%hree-fourths majority.

Mastodons The Aerial Flying Act

bination of Funny Men and Shapely
WOmen
The popular Comique was crowded to
suffocation last evening it being the advent
OF the amous Ida Gardeners Mastodon
Burlesque Co., and to say that the com.
pany scored a hit would but mildly express
the success OF Ida Gardner and her coterie
OF beautiful girls and excellent comedians.
The entertainment opened with an elegant
hrst part with twelve handsome ladies sus-
pended in midair from swings and a circle
OF balladists and comedians occupying the
stage. This portion of the show concluded
with an amusing finale.
The first of the, Mastodops to appear
were the Big Four Serio Comics, Ida
Gardner, the Kenyon Sisters and Lizzie
Arnold, four superbly costumed ladies who
rendered the latest musical successes in a
brilliant dashlng style that scored an i'm.
mediate hit. They were followed by a very
clever Irish team, Messrs. Ward and Lee,
who gave some very acceptable singing and
nimble dancing. Next to appear were Car.
roll and Nealy, who scored their usual
success. Camilla Kenyon was the next
new face, and proved to be a pretty young
lady who rendered some new serio. comic
songs in a very captivating manner. The
"Old Fashioned Homestead" with Sym.
mons, Hughes and Rsstus appeared and
fairly set the audience wild with their
camp-meeting refrains, comedy flashes, etc. |

Gardner proved herself to be one of the
most versatile OF artists, and her marvel.
Gus skipping rope dance was received with
admiration and unbounded applause.
Billy Arnold introduced his tambourine
solos, and he undoubtedly is the greatest
performer on that instrument in existence.
Billy Mack ably supported them in heir

candidate for mayor. ]. v. Bogart. did
not receive half the votes cast, and yet
