Entertainments.
 HYPERION THEATER,

Popular Lew Dockstader, at the head of ] his own big minstrel enterprise, will be the attraction Saturday afternoon and eve- hing The performance given by this mammoth company is thoroughly first class from beginning to end, and it can be said with truth that the company is not ex- celled, if equaled, by any on the road It is composed of artists of real merit. A pleasing feature is the scarcity of chest nuts and the abundance of new "funny business" introduced, and the magnificent costumes and the brilliant, dazzling elec- tric effects in the first part
 My Jack, with Walter Sanford in the cast, will be the attraction Monday and Tuesday evenings of next week.
 GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
 Billy Lester with his own big vaudeville company will be the attraction at this house for the balance of the week con- mencing this evening. The company is an unusually strong one and has in it's ranks some of the ablest artists on the vaude- vile stage.
 PRocToR's OPERA HOUSE.
 "The Pulse of New York; belongs to the same class of plays as tLost in New York" ;" Shadows of Great City," "Alone in New York;" etc. It was presented in Proctor's opera house last evening with great deal of scenic effects. Miss Gracie Emmett, in the multiple role of an heiress washerwoman, German girl, news boy, etc., received several encores. MT. Steve Corey, as Sammy Snapper, ,also came in for his share of we'll merited applause. Of the rest of the company much cannot be said in praise. The melo- drama is A good one of it's own kind, and the large audience had an enjoyable evening of it.
 Quack M. D., the highly amusing, laugh ter provoking comedy from the pen of Fred Marsden, author of Zip, Little De- tective, Muzette, etc., will be the attrac- ton October ], ? and 3 and Saturday mat inee. Mir. Louis De Lange, the eminent comedian, will appear as Dr. Dibson Dibbs and divulge to the faculty and public in general his knowledge of medicine. The company has been carefully selected and amongst them are the we'll known names of Miss Lou Fuller, w. s. Harkins. John Jennings, Mrs. Gale, etc.
 The sale of seats for the Y. M. 0. A. opens tonight at their rooms, 713 Chapel street, at 7:30 o'clock.
 AN INTERESTING LECTURE.

The New Hotel NIonopole.

The New Hotel Monopole.
 The Hotel Monopole will throw open its doors to the travelling public this morn ing. The Monopole is for gentlemen only and this rule will be steadfastly adhered to. A visit to the new hotel by a COURIER reporter last evening revealed the fact that it is one of the handsomest hotels in the city. Several of the rooms at the new hostlery are finished throughout in | white and gold and are furnished in the most modern style. In each room are open hreplaces, exquisite portieres and all the comforts of home to be found in a hotel. --r-
 Every effort has been made to ensure the comforts of travellers and the sur roundings are equal to those of the best hotel in the city. Each room in the spacious hotel | is furnished in the most modern fashion | and every attention will be given to the comfort and convenience of guests Seve- ral of the rooms are furnished in white and gilt, some in oak and others in blue trim mings. Altogether the new hotel is one of l the cosiest and most comfortable, in the city, and under the able management of James H. Murphy, James T. Dunn being the sole proprietor, the hotel certainly merits and will undoubtedly receive the patronage of the travelling public.

Proposed Improvement in Westvi

An improvement, which if accomplish ed will no boubt be much appreciated in the village of Westville, is talked of by the improvement association of that place. It is the opening of Forest street from Foun- tain to Main street. A petition is soon to be circulated to that effect.
 If this is done Burdock lane will be closed up and Forest street will then run through on straight line, whereas now there IS an ugly jog between the intersec- tions of Forest and Fountain streets and Burdock lane and Fountain.

Must Give Up.

The Ansonia liquor license case has been decided by the county commissioners who will request Shaw & Hawley, proprietors of the Dayton house, to surrender their license which they obtained of Robert Nor ris. One license had been serving for two parties. MT. Martin will be allowed to re- tain it. He bought it of O'Connell to whom Norris sold it when he went into in solvency. Then later, after Norris had failed, it was represented to the county commissioners that Norris had lost his and transferred to Shaw & Hawley.
 It was not until few weeks ago when OConnell sold out his saloon ard license to Bernard Martin that the deception was discovered and the fact brought out that one license had been serving for two par ties.

RONnS

When we come TO inquire into the
causes, a great many suggest them
selves which it would be dreary to cat
alogue in extenso. Nothing is truer
than the oet-repeated comments made
on the timidity of capital. Anybody
with experience knows that there is
very little difference between rich
food and rich philosopher. Some men,
of course, acquire wealth through their
great ability; but big returns are just as
frequently the fruit of chance as of de-
sign. Investors really know very little
about the probable outcome of ventures
which they make. They go into one
thing, and keep out of another, for ut
terly inadequate reason, and, if they ac-
cumulate fortune by their course, they
are said to be very shrewd. If they lose
one, they are classed with the incompe-
tents.
One thing the average capitalist sell
dom does, and that is to buy security
which has received black eye, no mat
ter how intrinsically valuable it may be.
They are all AFRAID of it. Let
water works companies in one
place get into trouble. and it will
affect adversely all other waterworks
companies, in spite of their profits and
prosperity. Investors can not stop to
discriminate. Their methods compel
them to prompt decisions without very
close examinations. This will partly
account for the feeble demand there is
for the bonds of Western quasi-public
corporations doing business in small
cities. In 1888 Judge GRESHAM, in the
case of the Galesburg, ILL.,, Waterworks
company, rendered very remarkable
dec.slor. He held. in effect that mu
nicipality had the right to declare
water company's charter forfeited if it
gave inefficient service, without regard
to the claims of its bondholders. and
without giving them notice and an op-
portunity to remedy the defects COM
planned of. His position will probably
be ultimately reversed, but since that
time the paper of such organizations
has waned in popularity. During the
same period several such companies in
the West have defaulted in the interest
OH their bonds and gone into the hands
of receivers. Towns which seemed large
enough to sustain them have faded
away. as Western towns sometimes will,
and those who have banked on their
success have lost heavily in conse-
quence. The news of such disasters
travels fast, and makes it hard to sell
the bonds even of companies which
have everything to recommend them.
The dull market for municipal bonds
is not due to any reputation which has
brought them into discredit, because
there has none of that, but because of
the preposterously low rates of interest
which they carry. Tie enabling acts in
Minnesota usually require such paper to

MORTGAGES.

In reference to mortgage paper, the
situation is like this: Eastern investors
confuse farm loans with city loans, and
one Western city with another. Large
numbers of companies have been organ
lied in this business with no other pur-
pose than to prey on the people with
capital. Only few of them have done
any business in this section. They have
confined their operations chiefly to Kan
sas City and the region tributary to it,
but there they have been at full blast.
They have advanced money on totally
inadequate security to irresponsible
people, and have sold the notes to their
customers at distance. who have trust
ed TO their representions that every
thing was in good shape. The day of
reckoning is come. and thousands on
thousands of foreclosures have been
made. Some of these mortgages were
on farms which yield nothing. and
the mortgage has strip of des-
EFT for his investment. Some of
them were on town and city lots at
wickedly fictitious values. The history
of city real estate speculation goes
through three stages. First there is
period of excessive activity in unim-
proved property. When this subsidies
there is boom in building operations.
Owners try to carry their lots by i'm
proving them, and in order TO do so they
borrow Oh them. These loans are often
made on the basis of valuation inflated
because of the preceding excitement.
AS these things settle down the earnings
of the property cease to be large enough
to carry it. 1t is abandoned to the
MORTGAGE, who wipes out the equity by
foreclosure, and getting it at low price
is able to sell it again at the same. This
levels the price of all property to the
price of that which has been foreclosed,
and things start anew from this lower
basis.
While town lots are in this second
stage. owners have been known In the
Southwest to borrow on them by lying
certificates as to their value more than
they were worth. and the investor who
is left with them on his hands, after en-
forcing his legal rights, feels sore and
disgruntled. This sort of brigandage
has hurt legitimate business in this
line as much as the troubles connected
with farm loans. st. Paul and Mime
apolis, which have been singularly free
from such wreckers, pay the penalty
for their exploits in other places. AS
was suggested at the beginning, the
Eastern capitalist does not make accu-
rate distinctions among points of the
compass. He knows that his neighbor
lost something in Nebraska, and a rela-
tive something in Kansas City, and he
instinctively hesitates to venture away
from home. The sturdy vigor and hon
est strength of the Twin Cities have to
be presented to him with eloquent
tongue if he is to be treasured. The
currents of business life run in such
closely braided fluids that shock at
one point is felt at all connected ones.
The dishonesty of the remote boomer
falls on the honest man in our city
struggling to preserve his homestead.

HOW THE LADIES FIND TT

The fact is coming to be understood
that in the. classes of goods most aft
fected by the Mckinney tariff. where
the prices have not been materially adj
vanced, the quality of the fabrics is in
ferior. The Boston Herald has had its
attention called to two cases where the
facts are no doubt familiar TO Others
whenever they have had occasion to
buy goods of that character. A Boston
lady, in refurnlshing her house with
carpets, went to a leading house. and
said to the salesman, You used to sell
me bargains in carpets. Have You any
now ?" The question induced smile
and the reply, "The day of bargains in
