BOTTLES BABY,

This entertaining Madison Square success
will be at the Hyperion tomorrow afternoon
and evening. Mics Josie Arthur is the baby
at seven years of age. The child is one of
the brightest and prettiest of the child
actresses and is great favorite. The play
is essentially one Of sentiment. There Is NO
melodrama of that stilted order with which
the London stage abounds, no great crises,
nothing of the sort. You are won by the
artless prattle of the baby. and by the great
hearted manliness of Boobies. The manager
ment announce that at the close of the Sat-
urday matinee the two children in the play,
one aged three, the other seven, will hold a
short reception on the stage, to which all
present are welcome.

the greatest outrage ever saw perpe-
trated under the cloak of "Independ-

ed well at the hands af the alliance land
the people generally it is Gen. Pope.
He has done more than any other one
man in our state to establish correct
views and to secure their formulation
into law. But | suppose he was mark
ed" and the very benefciaries Of his
earnest labors volunteered to act as
executioners. These things make me
sick at heart, almost. Look at the stu
alton in its true light! Jim Baker and

in hopes that the Democrats would en-.
dorse Baker, as it would have made the
Congressional campaign easy for the
Republicans; but | must say that | be.
lleve it credit mark to the Democracy

Baker fully, we must study his biogra'
ply in Washington"

Captain Kantahella is native of Cey-
