A Sneak Thiefs Work.

Wednesday night Mr.. Brown, Of
Critzer Bros jewelry store, re-
paired to his room at Mrs. Lock
harris boarding house on Soledad
'street, and retired, leaving his
pants on a chair near his bed. The
next morning he arose, and when
he wanted to pay his board bill, he
found that he had been robbed of
$3.50, besides a number of valu-
able little articles, and a gold
watch. Mr.. Brown has not the
slightest clue as to who commit
ted the Offense, but it is of the be-
lief that it was the work of some
whom Mrs. Lockhart
has been feeding occasionally. The
is in the hands of the city
for investigation.

Temperature for Ferns

From Cottage Gardening.
1t is certain that ferns will do
better at all times in a room in
which there is only fire occasion
ally than In one where it is kept
alight daily. The reason for this
is not difficult to understand.
When fire is kept up the air is
too dry, and, as consequence, the
fronds shrivel up and die away.
Most ferns like moist air-indeed
it is natural to them. We need
not be surprised, then, if they look
unhappy in the dry air ofcOnstant~
ly heated rooms. All the ferns
that it is usual to attempt to Guilt
vate in such places only require 10
be kept free from frost. 1t is a
mistake altogether to suppose that
they will be benefited by being
kept warm by the aid of fire.
They will do much better in a
room in which there is only an &C.
casional one made. Such ferns as
the common maidenhair pteris
cretica and asplenium fiaccidum
keep in good condition for several
years in rooms in which there is
not a regular fire. The only inn
portant point about their treat.
ment is the water supply. Care
should be taken not to give the
plants too much water, especially
during the winter. Those who
have ferns to keep through the
winter in rooms should try the
plant of keeping them cool, with
out allowing the frost to reach
them, and to keep the roots from
getting too much moisture.

Sunday and Monday Night

From the Philadelphia Press:
Cornetist Levy's popularity was
well tested last night. His benefit
was announced at the M9nnerchor
Garden; and in justice to the Occa-
sion, the price of the admission
was doubled. The public, however,
came with rush. 1t not only filled
every available space in the garden
and balconies, but overran into the
adjoining hotel and hung out of
the windows. Outside were
rows upon rows Of people who could
not see inside, and they stood pa
tiently four or five deep on the
pavement, and mingled their
hOarse shouts with the applause of
those within, when Levy stepped
forward with his jeweled cOrnet,
and began the Echo song of Eckert,
which Patti created. Wannermach-
er and his eXcellently trained or
chestra made the ensemble a COM

= CHARLES CoGhLAN OUT.
Frederick DE BelieviIIe Engaged to Play
in All His Parts


NEWPORT, Nov. 5-The actors colony
n the vicinity OF Broadway and Twenty
light street. was thrown into "A state Of
excitement by the announcement that
Rose Coghlan had telegrapbed for Fred
erick De BelIeville to join her Immediately
to replace her brother Charles Coghlan.
w. A. Mcconnell, manager OF the
American Theatrical Exchange, stated
that he received dispatch from Miss
Coghlan from St. Lewis to Immediately
engage Mr. De Belleville for the parts her
brother was then playing In compliance
with this. Mr.. Mcconnell engaged the
actor within an hour, and he started Fri
day night for Cleveland, and met the com
pany today.
MIR Mcconnell could not state the
reason for Mr.. Coghlan's withdrawal from
the organization, but presumed his recent
marriage with Miss kuehne Beveridge
had something to do with it.
A number of other managers who were
seen stated that Miss Coghlan objected to
the press comments on the marriage.
This combined with the fact that the En-
gish woman who ones bore Mr. Coghlan's
name had stated her intention of visiting
his country and endeavoriug to make it
interesting for the actor, was also sup
sed to have little to do with the
change.
Mr.. Coghlan and Miss Beverdge were
marriei in Indianapolis a week ago. In
his application for license the actor swore
he was single, and had never bsen mar
ried. In the bankruptcy court in London
TWO years ag, he swore he was married
man aud the father of a l0-year-old daugh-
ter.
When interviewed few days ago be
acknowledged that his evidence in this
instance was not true: that there had
been no ceremony. and justified his action
by the example set by the Prince of Wales
in the Sadly Morriannt clse.
