uTHE SPAN OF LIFE.n

Poor Richard Gets Murdered Eighteen
Times, But Fattens on the Treat
ment.
Eighteen separate and distinct times
was the loving Richard murdered by the
heavy villain at theAcademy Friday night
in two short hours And Richard seemed
to fatten on the treatment.
There was some trouble between Rich
ard and the bold, bad man from the very
first, and it was soon plain to the audi
ence that they had not agreed to fuse.
There was q woman in the case, person
ally not very pretty, but financially
beautiful. Her fair young face
was framed in Gee and $50, and
the villain WAS in hot pursuit of
the frame. After several periods of
tsclasp- me- to- your bosom Richard" Miss
Katie goes out of the room like a

you.n The readers of that great novel
When the Blossom Wilted" will re-
cognize the Inspiration of this scene. In
fact the love making in all this 'Span of
LifeA is of the genuine Laura Jean
Libbey type.
The villain puts up few choice pack
ages of poisoned grapes and drugged
beer, hires band or two of Arabs and
goes on the war-path. His base conduct
ends in several murders that come near
being fatal.
The play runs lightly ana easily
through ssCoffin Rock" lighthouse,
Peters Finger beer garden, gold and
diamond mines and Howling Dervishes
in Zambezi. And the villain still pursues
the Fair Young Thing, and Noble
Richard.
Richard is rescued from the light
house amid the widest applause; and
after seven years is found running q

The Weeks Record.
The week ending yesterday was the poor
est of the spring building season. But
eight permits were issued, and their ag-
gregate cost was only s29,550. Building In
spector Brady attributes the decrease in
the figures to the fact that the offices of
the District were moving, and builders held
off until everything settled. Next week
he predicts a much better showing, and as
the season advances says the building
business will pick up materially.
OF the eight permits issued this week
none went to the northwest, which is a
most peculiar thing, for in the past, no
matter how poor the record has been, the
northwestern section has always come in
for its share. The southwest took out three
permits, at an aggregate cost of $500. The
northeast Jared as badly as the northwest,
and the southeast went it one better, the
permit calling for an expenditure of 500.
The county took the lead with four per-
mits, aggregating in cost 500, $50.
