day be said he was journalist from
Cleveland The man appeared TO think

not gotten the Smoky City out OF his

she will probably have him stay where

she wanted 20 know the terms.

owners along the river bank 10 Ben
wood, from Forty-eighth street 10
Fourth street, s13,50O. due them as

THE DEVIL.

THE DEVIL.
There has been much discussion Of
late years as to the existence Of this
parsonage. The idea Of Satan has been
utilized in literature for ages. The
drama especially has benefited by him
and many plays owe their very exist
euce 70 him. Perhaps 20 play OF this
nature has enjoyed greater popularity
than the adaptation OF GOethe'S immOr-
tai masterpiece, Faust" Mr.. MorrI-
son, especially, has found the part Of
NeUhisto In Faust" adapted to him.
Unlike the Englishman, Henry Irving,
be makes MephiSto q smiling, unctiOus
devil, one we'll calculated to deceive
the uswary. Mr.. Morrison will be at
the Opera House Friday evening, De-
cem6er -, and no doubt large audi
ence will be in attendance to see the
devil in person.
"EDGEWoOD FOLKS"
Comedian Alba Heywood's excellent
company gave "EdgeWood Folks" at
the opera House. last night, to fair
sized audience, which, however, ought
20 have been twice as large. The plot
OF theplay is largely a framework for
the character acting OF Mr. Haywood,
and the clever specialists in his COM
Danv. Among the latter Mr.. LATE
Woodson, who is well-kBOwn in Wheel
ing, and Miss Florence WOlcOtt carried
of the honorS. Miss Wolcott has a
voice Of remarkable scope, and with
ease reaches high notes that few singers
attempt. Her voice also is strong, clear
ana sweet, and she more than merited
the recalls she received. Throughout
the company is an excellent one.

True Philosophy.
tFr0m the Boston Journal

Thompson is 9 philosopher. He takes
wider range of vision than do the common
herd. Meeting a friend the othsr day he
asked him what he was buying for Christ
mas.
"oh, my dear fellow, Pm not doing much
for Christmas this year"
"Wby not has your salary been cut
downi"
"No:but you know the times are 30 deuced
hard 1t behooves a man TO go carefully"
"Yes, that Is true: but did 1t never occur
to you that men like yourself ought to do
what You can to keep money in cIrculstioni
If every body In your position were to
shrink up within himself and say that he
must cut off expenses as closely as possible
the wheels of business -ould be psraIyzsd
and misery would follow in your path
Just stop and see how long the chain is
to which you are attached. No man Hveth
to himself, even II he be hermit.
"For instance, you and thousands Of
others begin to rstrsnch needlessly. The
merchant, the thester manager, the butcher
and baker, all begin to feel the Influence
of your economy. They are pretty well
i1ed and for time they don't cut down
their help. But If your psrsinony ls of
long duration the employers begin TO dis
charge their help, until they retain only
as few people as can run the establithment
In turn those people are now obliged to
economiza. They don't buy any more
clothes than they can possibly get along
without. They never go to any place of
amusement, they rarely go to church, and
pretty soon the manufacturer feels the
shoe pinchiug him. He caunot find q mar
ket for his goods, and he either shuts down
his mill or runs it on short time, in either
case reducing the income of his hundreds
of employees. These people. in turn. begin
to eoonomiza, because they must do so.
It isn't a question of choice with them.
The result is that the local grocer and
baker and butcher coon feels the pinch
he orders fewer goods, for he cannot sell
them. In turn his source OF supply feels
the pinch, and 80 1t goes on In some endless
chain until the entire country feels the re-
suit of your mean little economy. You are
not great man, II is true, but your httls
Influence, when hitched on to that of some
other fellow, and bis little Influence is
stretched stin further, is capable of bringing
around a revolution in trade which ID
tremendous. Now, old boy, 60 home and
ponder on this problem. You have already
done much mischief / know of lots ot
men and women who ale out of work,
owingto primarily to you. Open your
heart. Hunt up one or two of them and
help them to pass comfortably over Christ
msstide and spend your money little more
freely. Tell your neighbors TO do the same
| and, before you are swsre Of 1t, prosperity
| will return"

CHRISTMAS,

We wish all our readers a merry Christ
mas. We do not consider merriment the
chief good in life, but It is not extrava-
CANT to be merry one day in the year If
possible. We wish those who cannot have
a merry Christmas at least patient one.
This Christmas day finds many In trouble
who could be fairly merry last Christmas
day. To-day they are out of work, and
some of them are out of food and coal and
other things which tend to make Christ
mas merry, or even comfortable Those
who are 30 situated that they can be merry
to day should ask themselves whether
they have right to let themselves out
and really be as merry as they can
until they have taken care that somebody
who cannot be merry and finds it hard
work to be even patient has his or her load
lightened little. A Christmas dag spent
in cold selfshness will not be truly merry,
but Christmas day properly celebrated
by good will put into good action will be
worth having. There ought to be great
many real surprise parties in New Haven
to-day, and many disturbed and discour-
aged ones ought to be reminded that they
are not forgotten by their more prosperous
brethren and sisters, and left entirely to
the care and mercy of the good Lord. Of
course ravens may be sent around to-day
to feed the hungry, but the good men and
women of New Haven ought not to oblige
the Lord to call on birds to do his work.

these of this style with the brim turned
back into two rolls and with duf Of lace
and feathers In the cleft are used for all
occasions. For evening wear the whole
head-dress Ia practically reduced to these
two rolls.
A metallic sage green and . soft lilac is
q new combination of colors, and the tran
sition must be effected by O generous
shrouding of yellow lace. Daffodn yellow
and an old rose, blended by faint lines of
scarlet and dull green, is . new piece Of
daring. Pale blue of the turquoise tone
and magenta clasp hands and are friends
on pale blonde. Purple with peacock
green facings, much black insertion being
used, is another successful combination on
q costly gown. Yellow and lilac take on
new character when combined by the ad
dition of black satin. Yellow and gray
are carried out by gold and mouse color,
the mouse color being in velvet with out
line designs thereon In sunken gold
threads. This material ia combined with
gray satin heavily braided in gold. These
are all handsome, but don't attempt to i'm
itate these combinations unless you are
sure of your "eye for colors."

A Missouri Governor.


Out In my state" said Missouri con-
gresham, eve used to have governor by
the name of Stewart. This was way back
when was boy. In those days every
body was accustomed to drink whiskey,
and Stewart had entirely yielded to the
habits of his day. They tell how Stewart,
among others, was once entertaining the
Prince of Wales, on the occasion many
years ago when that sristocrat, then cal.
low youth, visited this country. They
gave . great ball In Wales honor In St
Louis. Stewart came down from Jeffer-
SON City to do credit to 1t. Our governor
In the course of the evening became very
happy, very proud, not to say enthusias-
tic. he and the prince were stationed on
little platform raised for them at one
side of the hall. So stationed, the beauty
and brilliancy, and blue blood of st. Louis
swept by them in dazzling review. The
spectacle elevated Stewards feelings seve-
raj notches. His bosom swelled. Final
ly, In tremendous impulse born of glow
and glory, he administered q mighty slsp
to the royal back and exclaimed:
Prince, don't you wish you was gov
ernor of Missouri"
