Gas stoves should never be used in sleep
ing rooms; they give stutTy, close feeling
which is most unpleasant, while an open
fireplace encourages ventilation, and thus
makes the ais pure and fresh and is mos,
agreeable. CAildren's sleeping rooms are
better without fires at night, unless the

JaIn es II. Walltck,

Monday evening the famous romantic
actor, Mr.. Jas. II. Wallick, will begin a
two nights engagement in his famous
plays. beginning with 1.-The Cattle King
and closing with 1.-The Bandit King" az
played by him over :, 200 times. 1.-THE Cat
tie KING" which has met with such success
for several seasons does not req uire special
mention, but, as those who have seen it
know. for actual business which the au-
dience can understand it surpasses any
thing in its line. and altogether the play is
one we'll calculated to dispsl any tendency
to lethargy and would break up the worst
case of catelepsy on record. The Bandit
King" was written expressly for Mr.. Wal
lick and was a pronounced success from it's
first production. 1t is a pretty melodrama,
the plot treating Of scenes lowering around
the mountains of eastern Missouri, with the
usual love interest and the customary
comedy and villainy. The leading charao-
ter OF the piece, Joe Howard. as given by
Mr.. Wallick ia an excellent line of acting.
In both plays Mr.. Wallick's famous horses
are seen to advantage. There are plenty Of
good specially people in the support and
there is no stick among the balance of the
company.

A Soldier

OMAHA. June 25.-Clinton E. Dixon, a
private in the Sixth United Statess cavalry.
was hanged here this morning in the stock
ade. just outside of Douglas county Jail, for
the murder of Corporal William Carter, a
member of his company. The execution
was conducted by United States Marshal
Slaughter. Di1on's neck was broken. The
condemned man walked to the scaffold I'M
falteringly. He died without making u
tricity. The killing grew out Of the fact
that Carter elected from Fort Niobrara,
by command of his captain, a colored
courtesan with whom Dixon was intimate.
