Lost In London.

Newton Beers company played the old
meodrama, "Lost in London," at the Opera
House last Thursday evening to fair sized
audience. The acting of MIR. Beers was ex-
cellent, but the support was not SO good as is
expected in such company. The skirt dane
ing was very ordinary, but as a bigh-kicker
the embryo dancer exceled anything that
has been seen here. The play has many
strong points, hut the effects of some parts
were marred by accidents to the scenery.
One of the most notable deficiencies of the
company was the lack of good stage mana
ger who was thoroughly acquainted with the
play. On the whole, however, the audience
seemed well pleased.

THE message of President

THE message of President
Cleveland to congress is
awaited with a great deal of
interest. On previous occa-
sions his utterances have been
so prophetic in regard to the
effect of laws governing finan-
cial questions as to establish
confidence in his judgment
and in his ability to recon-
mend such measures necessa-
nv to accomplish the desired
end. His craftsmanship Is
of such a high character that
his recommendations should,
and no doubt will, have great
weight with congress.
