The date for the production of the bril-
liant and charming comedy School has
been fixed for Thursday, March ., at the
Opera House. The remaining two weeks
will be devoted to finishing off the actors in
their parts. The east has been materially
strengthened by the addition of Mr.. f. |.
Nash, who has consented to take the diff
cult part of krux, and. Judging from his
work at the rehearsals. he will play it well.
The cast a. now completed is one of the
strongest that any amateur performance
has been produced by here for many years
and under the experienced stage manage
ment Of Mr.. Frank 4. owen will equal in
smoothnes- and capabilits many of the pro-
fessionai troupcs appearing here. These
facts. and the owlelge that the money
raised by the play will be added TO the Ii
brary fund, will undoubtedly draw large
house

ON the fire After an hours hard work it
was controlled and all danger of is spread
ing in that thickly settled district was over.
The house was owned by William Les
-or, who bought it within year of Daniel

house, also had $500 on his furniture, both
! in F. r. Nobl.'s agency. Total loss esti-
mated at S210o. Joseph Piper and Dennis
