Nonpareil Club Entertainment.

The mask ball of the Nonpareil club
at Turner Opera house, Saturday even
ing, was grand affair The audience
assembled was one of the largest ever
seen in the hall on any similar occa-
sion, and everything passed off credit
ably to the managers of the entertain
ment. Of course, it is no disparage-
ment to the other attractions on the
programme to speak Of the Derry twin
sisters as the particular bright stars Of
the evening, with their songs and
dances. In the dance from "The Mer-
ry Monach," in which the song Glove
will find a way" is introduced, they
were superb and we'll deserved the ap-
plause they received. The Derry twins
are certainly artists in their line. The
tableaux and "Fun in a Barber Shop"
scene were all good. The number of
masks was not as large as might have
been expected. but the masqueraders
in the dancing and various perform
ances appeared to enjoy themselves to
the utmost. Everybody will be on the
lookout for the next effort of the Nom
pareil club.

SHE HAS RESIGNED.
The Mayoress OF Eiowa Has Thrown
Up Her Job.

tH hti JOb-
Readers may remember the story
Of the plucky Mayoress of Kiowa, in
Kansas, who was elected as "a joke,
and who turned the laugh the other
way by closing all the saloons in
accordance with the State law, and
refused to resign, even when asked
to do so in n petition signed by
every man in town. A recent dis
patch brings Information that she
has given up the fight and resigned.
She could stand the indignation
OF the men, even when the mAlcon-
tents were headed by her own hus-
band, but when the women went
back on her she weakened.
The conflict between material
considerations and moral ideas was
more violent than usually is the
case. 1t seems that Kiowa depends
for its business prosperity on the
patronage d the ranchmcn and
cowboys Of the surrounding coun-
try. When the "joints - were
closed by order of the Mayoross II
boycott was instituted against the
place, and tho merchants saw their
profits dwin lie until ruin stared
them in the face. The stare Of
ruin is an uncomfoi table thing to
face, and it is small wonder that
the citizens of Kiowa felt uneasy.
But when the men were i'm open
revolt the Mayorcss had still the
aid and comfort OF the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, and
with tins backing she felt that she
was justified in continuing her
course though the heavens should
fall.
When the fall styles appeared
and the women Of the Woman )
Christian Temperance Union, dis
covered that the money for the
refurnishing of their wlrdrobcs was
not contained, as usual, in the
pocket books of their husbands,
their IDEAS touching the sale Of
liquor and the majesty of the law
underwent change. They began
to talk. What they said has not
been recorded in detail, but what
ever it was, it made the Mayorcss
s1uirm i'm her chair OF Office. and at
last forced her TO the unwilling
conclusion that women have no
business in Office.
She had appealed in vain to the
lovers Of law and order, to the
Woman's Christian Temperance
Union, and to the Governor and
Attorney General Of the State.
Singlc-handcd she fought gallant
battle for right against might, and
her glory should be no ray the less
because she did not win. What
could be done she did. The mono.
tonous annals OF Kiowa will be illu-
minated for all time by the admin
i5tration Of plucky Mayoress Paxton

Noticing my friend had worked
himself to n High Tariff pitch I
concluded to let him deliver himself
of his broad shield of Amer

supposed to carry in his inside
pocket. This is the chrome which
the JOWyWdt has sent out to each
subscriber since the days Of ugfr.
But things have changed within the
last few months, and the test Of
loyalty which the Journal applies to
the rank and file, is, "Will you
