Columbus at the Eden Musec.
Bill NNe.

The sculpiors were working on a
groop OF Christopher Columbus. The
artist has seized upon the happy mo-
ment when Columbus is just about 10
discover America, and he is debating
in his own mind whether or not there
is ANYTHING in it. One can sac readily
bv his deep earnest look that il is
problem in his brain which he has not
vet settled Whether il will pay him
TO discover country which will in
trDduce the use of plug tobacco and
freedom.
Columbus was at this time very
poor. First he had sought TO secure
concession from the legislature
of Spain, but in Spain it
costs as much to get just apprOpria-
ton as il does in Albany. He went
on 10 show that il he did not discover
America some one else would, and
that the result would be that some less
deserving and far palmer man would
get his picture on the American green
backs. But pooh! pooh! said the leg
islature. seeing that Columbus had no
means with which to promote legis-
lative action and he being plain man
entirely ignorant of whether bill

denied the pleasure OF witnessing the
entertainment Wednesday evening,
bnt learn from those who were presen;
that it was most interesting through
out. Little Donna Ice is not only an
excellent musician but an actress of
rare versatile talent, impersonaling,
most creditably, both male and female
characters, and rendering character
songs in a manner which reflects cred
it upon both voice and talent. Baby
Erma McElhiney as vocalist and
eloculionist is a veritable prodigy.
The tiny darling, scarcely tall enough
TO SEQ over the footlights, rendered
several songs in most excellent man
ner. Miss Birdie Tucker and Master
Ed. Fribley contributed in no small
degree to the success of the event with
both vocal and instrumental music.
The Baxter band accompanied the
party and enlivenod the occasion with
choice quickstcps and classical selcc-
tons. Quite number of Baxter peo.
pie were present and on the whole the
entertainment was pleasant success.
Weir Tribune: a curiosity in the
shape of Two kinds of apples combin-
ed in one was brought TO this office
the other day from VIM. Whilmore's
place near here. The apple was small
but well formed and combined the
winesap and Ben Davis varieties. One
half showed the dark rich red of the
winesap, while the other was of the
lighter color of the Ben Davis. The
place where the two varieties met
were as sharply defined as though
marked with paint brush. 1t is said
that the apple was produced by slicing
in two u seed of each kind, joining a
half of each to the other smoothly
fastened and planting them. Our
readers need not believe this tale If
they don't want TO, as the apple was
eaten by the office force and we have
nothing to prove it by. 1t all looked
alike inside and both sides tasted like

1RL II. HICKS WEATHER PROPHET

The following taken from the "storm
chart" for 1890 of Rev. Irl X. Hicks OF
St. Louis will prove interesting to
MANY. Here are his predictions for
NOVEMBER.
Mauv active and some violent. au-
tumnal storms and gales viii he pre-
vailing at the beginning of November
Mercury falls on the 4th and Venus
OIL the 9Th, so that the storms may con-
tinue into the reactory days about the
9Th aud 9th. There will be a small
touch of winter in the storms at this
time, TO the north. Tornadoes and
much rain are possible in the south
ernly regions. About the llth, 18th,
18th and l4th, there will be much
stormy, clustering weather, winding
up with genuine cold wave. 1t will
remain clear and cold up TO the next
regular period, with the exception OF
slight disturbances about the 18th.
The last regular period will rum from
the odd 10 18th. There will be rain
and snow storms about the 23d, oath
and 25th-later in the east-followed
everywhere with freezing weather.
The 29lh is a light storm day.

Courtship and Marriage.



However, I may say in conclusions
that marriage, II not carried to excess
is wise provision and sacred Obll-
cation. Marry your opposite as far
as possible, especially as regards sex
You will never regret ii. II possible,
marry above your own station. Both
of you should do this. 1t Is sure to
advance your race. Do not marry a
foreigner unless highly Endorsed by
those in whom you have perfect conf
dence, unless you want 10 very much
indeed.
Do not encourage long engagements.
II is better to get weary of each other
at your leisure after marriage than
TO fiy around and do SO before hand.
Courtship, however, is a most delight
full industry, and should not be rashly
broken in upon by marriage. Some
people seem to be remarkably fitted for
suitors, but fail in other occupations.
This is very unfortunate indeed. No
sutton can be sure OF a permanent
situation. The supply greatly exceeds
the demand, but good HUSBANDS ana
wives are none too plenty.
II the United States government
would establish standard of excel
lcnce for suitable husbands under 80,
and able, amiable and sensible wives
under the same age, aud award II med
al TO each aud q purse annually in
stead of oiling the thorax and paiting
the back of capital we would never
have cause to regret it. Wedding am
niversaries containing popcorn and
presents of course are within the
scope, jurisdiction and prerogative
of those who are interested, and may
be encouraged or frowned upon as
best suits those who may be willing
to place themselves in a position where
the positive clec;rode Of pie. and
angel food may be applied in such u
way as 10 connect with the clectrode OF
pin cushions and congratulations.

.Jim the Pcnmam" Tonight.

Sir Charles Young, the author of
"Jim, the Penman, is to be credited
with the authorship of a very inter
esting play of genuine dramatic
merit, aud OF marked originality.
There is originality in the conception
and in the execution. He tells story
in very natural and consistent nan
ner. He asks you tc admit the posi-
bility of such Il character as James
Ralslon. That granted, he proceeds
without The necessity OF furl her APP
peals to your credulity or tolerance
In the elabo alton OF his story there
is nothing but what you must admit
as rational and logical. \ inelodrama
rarely appeals to the intelligence, in
it's development it often outraSes
common sense, but at the same time;
it eXcites the imagination, and in a
measure sways the senses. In Jim,
the Penman'' there is just enough OF
the melodrama to act rs q stlmulant TO
the imagination. In the scenes ct
the play there is throughout gen
teel, natural comedy. Even in the
more serious incidents there is no de-
parture from the ordinary condition
of things. The characters are all
natural; the language is appropriate,
and of distinctive quality. The" busl-
ness" is very effective-without Its
purpose being apparent.
