RosIna Woke. at the Opera House.


There was delightful season Of COM
edy at the Opera House, last evening,
on the occasion of the first performance
by the Rosina Vokes Comedy Company.
The audience was not nearly so large as
it would have been Thursday evening,
had the misfortune not have befallen
the baggage, but still it was something
more than "a good house," and every
individual went away delighted with
the rendition OF the three gems making
up the evenings programme. The hrst
"a Game of Cards"-was the occa-
sion of some excellent work by Messrs.
Felix Morris as ''Chevalier de Rochefer-
rier" and Ferdinand Gottschalk as "Mr.
Mecier." Mr.. Morriss as an old man is
almost fautless, and throughout the
comedy applause was frequent. In
"The Circus Rider" Miss Vokes made
her first appearance, and was as charm
ing and entertaining as ever-mOre so,
If possible. The comedy is familiar
one here. The closing piece was ga
Double Lesson" performed for the first
time in Wheeling. The six characters
were uniformly we'll taken, and the
comedy closed most satisfactorily the
evenings performance.
There will be matinee this after
noon, and this evening the engagement
will close with Crocodile Tears" "My
Miliner's Bill" and "His Art was True
TO POLL"

when he slipped or stumbled In some
manner not definitely known and rolled
to the bottom of the steps, where ne

Help was summoned and the uncon-
seious man was carried into Mr.. Nc

warde-James combination.

The New Orleans Delta has the fol-
lowing to say OF 1.-THE Lions Mouth, J"
which will be given by Frederick Warde
and Louis James at the Opera House,
on Monday, November 2S: The "Lion's
MOUTH is a literary gem, rich with
noble language. The play is staged in
a most magnificent manner, the cos
tunes are rich and the scenery realistic.
The company, without exception, is
good. No fault could be found with
any single individual. Messrs. Warde
and James are thoroughly cognizant OF
the fact that much OF their success de-
ponds upon the merits of their support,
therefore they left no stone unturned
to secure company of whose histrionic
powers there could be no doubt, and
right well they have accomplished their
end,

The Grand Jury.

The grand jury of the Circuit Court
was finally discharged, about four
o'clock yesterday afternoon, after a
hard days work in the examination OF
persons named upon the affidavit OF
voters who were challenged at the polls.
This work-the first OF the sort under
the new election law-proved big job,
not only for the jury, but for the Sheriff
and his deputies as well. In some cases
the names of non-residents OF the
county were given, in others wrong
initials were signed, ETC., necessitating
long searches after the right man in
several instances. Members OF the jury
said, after the adjournment, they were
very glad the work was at an end.

Two kentucky Girls Who Live on Fish
and Who weigh Almost a Half Ton.
PORTSMOUTH, o., Oct. 10.-On ono of
the many junk boats lying In the Ohio
river oneinile below this city are two
girls who weigh nearly half ton. The
girls are daughters of Joseph Davis and
wife. The parents claim CatlettsbuTg as
their home and as the birthplace of the
girls. They are small in stature, and
were born and raised in the mountains
of West Virginia. The largest girl,
whose name is Margaret, is eleven years
of age, and weighs 40 pounds. Her
face has a vacant look, and altogether
her appearance is repulsive. Her weight
causes her much misery. She is gaining
flesh at the rate of one pound per month.
The smaller girl is five years old, and
weighs 206 pounds. She is rather bright
and catchy. Both girls arc monster
eaters. The main food is fish caught
from the river.

Walter Lane, one of the best known
young men of Charlottesville, commit
ted suicide because his sweetheart, Miss
Maud Brooks, went buggy riding with
a rival. Lane had been absent during
the week, and returned to this city Sun

he saw was Miss Brooks whisking past
in a buggy with George Little. Lane
walked at once to hardware store,
where he purchased a revolver. He
then passed two hours calling on friends
and bidding them an affectionate fare
well, saying that he intended to take his
life. AT 8 o'clock in the evening he
went to the residence of his father,
George Lane, and called him out in the
yard. He stood some minutes before
his father, aad then suddenly pulled the
weapon from his pocket, placed it to his
right temple and fired. He fell forward
into the arms of his agonized parent,
whose shrieks aroused tho neighbor-

MOUNT PLEASANT, Ia, Oct. II, 1899.
The special going the rounds of the press
