Desirable Advantages.
Another important real estate trans
action occurred in Rock Island late yes

for Rock Island than the mere transfer
OF the proPerty-mo-e than any Other that

$50 the property at the southeast corner
Of First avenue and Seventeenth street,
210 feet on First avenue and $50 on
Seventeenth. running south to the alley,
passes from Mrs. Ellen Riley into the
hands OF r. 81. NcMullen, local manager
of the Brush Electric company. The
significant result will be the erection on
the site early in the spring of q modern
power plant. Mr.. McMullen, the wide-
awake mansger of the company g interests

The frst presentation OF "Niobo" ut
the Thester last night was witnessed
by large audience, every part Of the
house being well filled. And the play
was thoroughly enjoyed by everybody.
That "Niobe" IL among the hncst
comedies presented to the public at
present, was probably the unanimous
verdict OF last nights audience. Tho

heroine OF an old Homeric legend In
contact with an electric wire, thereby

midst OF matter.oi-'aot Yankee fami-
ly, with the pdtsr Jamiiias OF which
she innocently falls In love, IN
unique enough In itself. And the
whole structure reared on this ground
work Ia admirable. "Niobe" is a
genuine comedy, pure and inofien'
sive TO those whose minds are pure.
The play isinterpreted by an excel.
lent company. Miss Isabelle Coo, as
"Niobe," Is most charming appear
ance on the stage, and her acting Is
always correct. Her beautiful features
ana figure make her adapted to the
classic role she plays. Mr.. Eieson and

these principal characters are ably sup.
ported by the whole cast. Ample
applause rewarded the players last
night.
The play will DO repeated tonight.

CLARA MORRIS.

There are few play.goers OF twenty
odd years ago, who do not remember
that September night In 1870, when
Clara Morris, until then almost un'
known, took tho New York public by
storm. Previous to that time she had
been valued leading lady In CIevo.
land, Louisville aud other western
cities, ard had played all'sorts OF roles,
from pert soubrettes 10 tragedy queens,
but her career may be- justly
said to date from the night
Of which 1 speak. Augustin
DAILY, acting upon tho suggestion
Of James Lewis, had brought her from
Cincinnati 10 play subordinate roles In
his Fifth avenue company. Wilkie
Collins' "Man and Wife" was about TO
be produced, and at the last moment
the role OF Anne Sylvestre was de-
clined by Agnes Ethel, who was then
Mr.. Daly's leading lady. In the
natural course OF events the role would
then have fallen to lone burke, but
that lady, without consulting her
manager. had OF q sudden decided 10
marry and leave the stage, and 70, as u
last resort, the part, not without serious
managerial misgivings, was assigned
TO the raw ana unknown recruit from
the West. Miss Morris had little time
for study or preparation, but nhe saw
that the opportunity oil a lifetime had
suddenly been presented to her, and
she rose equal TO the occasion. On the
opening night she proved u revelation,
and within month she had become
the most popular and most eagerly.
sought-after leading lady In New York.
Two years later she was starring and
drawing crowded audiences wherever
she appeared.
