The attention of the Minnesota
worlds fair commissioners is drawn to
the fact that the Michigan commission
ers, who have not much larger an ap-
preparation at their disposal, are not
talking about reSigning. On the con-
trary, they are actively at work prepar-
ing to make as creditable an exhibit as
the appropriation will admit. Mime
sofas commissioners should cease suik-
Ing and do likewise.-Duluth News.
The Moorhead News of last week
reads a well-deServed lecture to those
lions upon the members of the board of
managers of the worlds fair exhibit of
Minnesota. Some have been so reckless
as to say the managers have used most
of the appropriation for salaries and ex-
penses, and sought an additional appro-
priation to further extend the robbery.
The board of managers get no pay
whatever, not even necessary expenses
of attending meetings, and such criti-
cisms are foolish and unjusJ.-Todd

to congratulate the editor on the high

not often in these days of degenerate

DON'TS FOR MEN.

New York Recorder
Don't wear felt hat on humid sum-
mer's day.
Don't save all your polite attentions
for other mems wives.
Don't be jealous without sufficien
cause; it belittles you.
Don't begin every remark with 'sBy
Jove." 1t is as bad as ''lovely"
Don't be such crank that every one
in the house is glad when you are out
of 1t.
Don't make life burden to the family
if your shirt does not fit or your trousers
are too short.
Don't put a cane or an umbrella under
your arm while going upstairs. People
don't like to dodge the point.
Don't allow woman to stand, and
finally offer her seat as il you hated
to; give it up with good grace or else
keep it.
Don't scold because the children dis
turb your enjoyment of the evening pa
per: they have been bothering some
body all day.
Don't cross your legs so that woman
in passing you must brush the dirt from
your shoes with her dainty dress.
Don'tneglect to Judge your own short
comings as severely as those of others.

NEW BOOKS.

"Her Baletul Influence is the rather
melodramatic title of LHa Rice's new
book. The plot of the story is slight,
and the style is pervaded with super
fetal cleverness that is somewhat pleas
ing. Her Baleful Influence" is a So
ciety novel, and is full of the very
people one meets every day. As the
meaus of whiling away an idle half
hour, the book is great success.

stories of the modern French. 1t Is the
life story of little orphan girl in Paris.

DR.. Paul Muller, of Hamburg, writ

Central-Zeitung cannot sufficiently rec
ommend" the internal use of arsenic in
the treatment of warts. He has en-
ployed 1t ''for more than two years, and
always found the warts disappeared
within three weeks"
Another practitioner, DIR. Pullin, who
seems to have used arsenic for the same
purpose somewhat longer, says that he
has known it to cure warts in eight
days. The dose ordered by DR.. Muller
is only. at the beginning, two drops of
liquor arsenicals three times day for
adults. and a quarter of drop for chill
dren. These quantities are gradually
increased.

THE LOCAL STAGE.

Nearly every seat in the Metropolitan was
taken last night. and the "City Directory
was given rousing send off. A year ago
this pleasing skit was given here on the
occasion OF Manager SCOTS benefit and left
such pleasant recollectons that a weeks fine
business is assured. Tine company is not the
same as before. One misses Charlie Reed,
Ed Collier and Neay Yoke, but the new peo-
pie, including Dan DAILY, Willis Sweatnam,
Luke Schoolcraft and Bessie Cleveland leave
nothing TO be desired. The play has been
reconstructed and frightened by Louis
Harrison, and throughout its three acts
ripples with laughter and bubbles with
music. The skit turns on the ludicious
errors growing out of the numerous Smiths
in the directory and is as amusingly plotless
as could be desired. The music is unusually
good, and at head OF some exceedingly clever
dancing is the work of Amelia Glover, the
American Dancer The play will run for a
week ana will certainly do a rushing
business.
ga Trip to Chinatown was produced last
evening at the Grand, and delighted a
crowded house. Encores were the rule
Everybody was pleased with the perform
ance, and relieved themselves of the enthu-
siasm with repeated bursts of applause. The
company is composed of a most capable set
of players. All are artists IN the true sense
of the word. They are mirth- provokers of
the highest order. Few people could resist
Harry Conor, the man with one foot in the
grave" He is excrutiatingly funny. His
mannerisms are exceedingly natural, nothing
being forced or overdrawn. George A.
Bean Jr also furnishes any amount of fun.
Anna Boyd, in the roll of Mrs. Guyer 8
widow, is most effective. The others also
display considerable merit. The whistlipg
of Harry GilfoIl created quite furore and he
was encored three times. His other special
ties are decidedly novel and entertaining,
evoking for him a most marked reception.
The specialties of the company all round are
exceptionally good. and for a sparkling en-
tertainment-an entertainment checked full
of smart sayings, fun and frolie, music and
song-Hoyt's "A Trip to Chinatown" can be
unhesitatingly commended. All the week,
with matinees Wednesday and Saturday.
