PRoCTOR'S OPERA HOUSE.

PhOCTOHS OPERA HOUSE.
ga Fair Rebel" good play of the civil
war, drew a large house last night. The
play is worthy of a better company. It's
second and third acts are strongly con-
structed and introduce some novel episodes.
The last act is the weakest of the four, and
ends the play somewhat abruptly after the
strong episode which closes the third act.
But the piece as a whole is a remarkably
good one. Edward R. Mason as the hero,
Colonel Ezra Mason, j. w. j. Brooks as the
villain, Captain Savarie de Perrin, did JUS
tice to their parts. The play will be re-
peated this afternoon and evening.

livery stable burned between $3.50 and

rooming in the upper part of the build
ing were suffocated, and between
twenty and thirty horses met death the
same way. There is a possibility that
one more man was suffocated The
bodies were sent to the coroner's Office

There were several narrow escapes
from death, as part of the building over
the ables was occupied by roomers.
When the police and fire department
arrived a number of these roomers
were hanging out of the windows, hav-
ing been almost suffocated by the vol.
ume of smoke inside
There were seven men and two
women in the building. and only four
are known to have escaped.
The lower part of the building was
occupied by horses and carriages. The
upper part was divided into three COM
partmeats. One of these was occupied
by the roomers, another was used for
storing hay and grain and the third was
used to stable horses. The horses that
suffocated were those that were kept
in the upper part of the building.
The fire probably originated from
the upsetting of lamp The stables
were owned by Smith & Sombart The
building was valued at $50, 600. In
surance, 500
