The production was remarkably

is simple, but interesting and every

laughable feature is the negro sol

of caricature of actual occurrences
of the beginning of the war. Miss
Emma Stone, in the part Of "Oizel.

credit, the emotional parts being
warmly applauded. She has a

DRESSED IN A WAGON.
An Angry Husband Proves That he
Can SHOP"


A large number of people were
highly amused this morning by an
extended glimpse of the domestic
economy Of family from the forks
of the creek, who were tied up TO
the court house fence.
The family was composed OF
three little girls, their mother and
father, and the old gentleman had
been up town to make some pur-
chases. When he came back his
wife, who had tarried at the wagon
with the children, questioned the
economy and suitableness of the
purchases. To set the matter at
rest the lord and alleged master in.
sisted on having the matter settled
right away. So, depositing big
package on the wagon seat, he I'M
tied the strings, opened the bundle
and brought forth sundry pairs OF
shoes and stockings, a hne-tooth
comb and some soap, Then ne
called out:
"You, thar, 'Cindy, take them
off an put on these" waving a pair
of blue stockings in the air. Gin
dy, little girl of six, took of her
shoes and stockings and tried on
the new ones with the utmost
calmness and nonchalance, standing
on the seat and stamping her feet
to see if the shoes fitted. Then
two older girls put on new shoes
and stockings. The old lady then
disputed the quality of the soap,
when the proprietor of the family
deliberately went to a saloon, go,
a bucket of water, and took meal
bag from the wagon. He sloshed
the soap in the water, made some
thick suds and plastered the same
on the faces of the children, rub
bling off with the meal bag. The
old lady was still doubtful of the
fne-tooth comb, when the now
thoroughly irritated father jerked
the hats off the children and raked
their tow heads fore and aft with
the comb. The children cried
so lch." and "Ohw but the old
man made a thorough narrowing,
after which he replied:
"Thar, now. The shoes an
stockin's fits 'em, the soap washes
'em an the comb sorapes 'em. So
