''Of course there are various grades of

'Of course" replied the careless one.
THAT being so," continued the thoughtful

consider the smallest, meanest and most
contemplate of all known to modern civili-
ZatiCn?"
Il could hardly answer that offhand," re-
turned the careless man. Perhaps you
have given the subject some thought

Poli,s Wonderland Theatsr.

Miss Gertie Cochran continues to as- tonlsh the multitudes that flock to the Wonderland. Her manager explains the phenomenon by saying that her memory acts as a photograph, register ing correctly everything that she Is told to remember and reproducing it at will when questions are propounded to her. The vaudeville performance in addition is extremely pleasing, Miss Gertie Gilson, Conroy and Leland, and the other artists, giving the choicest and most amusing specialties. Next week an unusually excellent attraction has been secured in Juan Caicedo, the marvellous slack wire performer who has been the sensation at Roster & Bial's for six months. Previous to his return to Europe, whence he was im- ported for the Roster & Bial engage ment, Caicedo will play a few American dates, and next weeks is the first and only one to be played outside of larger cities.

A. Y. Pearsons Land of the Mid night Sun" played to a large at the Grand last evening.
 The play is strong melodrama and held the closest attention of all pres ent It is the story of two brothers separated from birth and at last meet lng in the sulphur mines in Iceland, It presents some fine situations and is interesting from the first.
 The scenic effects were good, especial ly the firing of the sulphur mines and the volcanic eruption.
 As Captain Jollyweather, MT. Barbour was excellent and his quaint humor kept the audience in continual laugh ter. The Misses Maitland were ably portrayed by Misses Lyton and Mayor both of whom were commendable. The statue of MT. Bittner places him to all advantage as Jason, one of the two brothers, and gives good impression as the hardy Icelander
 The play will be given this and to- morrow evenings, with a matinee to- morrow afternoon.
 The attraction at the Grand opera house Monday, Tuesday and Wednes- day evenings next week will be the clever Irish comedian Robert Gaylor. He will appear in his eccentric version of the very successful comedy creation entitled Sport McAllister" one of the 400. MT. Gaylor has always been con sidered one of the most prominent of eccentric comedians. He has been seen here before, several times but each visit only seems to add to his popular ity and establish him more firmly among the favorites that come to this city. The skit is bright, sparkling and refined, and contains a laugh in every line. The organization is es- pecially strong in it's singing numbers, and all the latest fads in song and dance will be introduced. Sport McAl- lister matinee Wednesday.
