THE SECRET OF NAV.

What is the world tryinS to Say?
Why is the light so t, nGur and gray;
Why are the tremuloUs leaves sway
On the trees new 1ledged with tho faintest
green?
Nay, he were wise who could sag what these
things mean
And tell the secret of May.
What is my heart trying to say?
Why does it tremble and hurry and stay
At the sight OF leaf sunny day,
OF leaf thouhn never delicate green?
Nay he were wise who could say what these

And tell the secret of May.

Too Deep for the Jury.

There was trial before a jury in
the police court this morning that
resulted.out Of tongue flashing al
legged to have been administered
by Mexican woman named An
drea G. Andrada to another Next
can woman named Avarista p.
Orosco. The evidence for the pros
ecution showed that the defendant
had used profanity of most ma
lignant type toward the rrosecut-
ing witness. 1t was family row
among a number Of Mexican fami-
lies, and the defense tried to prove
that an element Of malicious pros
ecution entered into the case. The
jury after being out some time,
was discharged without being able
to agree on verdict.

Emmett at the Grand Tanight.

j. X. Emmett undoubtedly owes
much of his remarkable success,
both artistic and financial, to his
keen desire and earnest effort to
please the public, as well as to his
-undoubted dramatic gifts, attain
ments and magnetic personalities.
Unlike many "star" actors he has
never attempted to give the public
an impression of his own superior
ity by contrast with the efforts of
supporting company of mediocre
actors. He has always surrounded
himself with actors of splendid
ability and reputation and has
won his success through his own
positive personal merits and the
general excellence of his produc-
tions. He shows his appreciation
of the generous patronage of the
public by engaging a stronger COM
pany than ever, this year, to sup
port him in his charming play,
"Fritz in a Mad House."

Darkest Russia Thursday.

A finely staged, cleverly acted
romantic drama with the striking
title of Darkest Russia" will be
seen the Opera house Thursday
evening next. The play is written
by Mr.. H. Grattan Donnelly, who
has shown wonderful ingenuity in
portraying scenes characteristic of
the Russian. The theme is a
most interesting one, and the
story is told with such vividness
that absorbed attention is held
from the opening to the closing
scene. The dialogue is bright,
crisp and cheerful, and a vein OF
genuine mirth provoking comedy
runs throughout the play. In the
mounting the play is faultless and
every attention has been given to
the smallest detail. The produc-
ton in every way is most elaborate
and abounds in effective tableauX
and groupings. The costumes are
marvels Of beauty, the artistic in,
termingling Of color in the dress Of
the various characters presenting
not only pleasing, but striking
effect.

QUITE A DIFFERENCE.

Collector Brand and City Collector
Umscheid's Work Compared.
From November l, 1898 to June
l, 1894, time Of seven months, the
city collector took in back taxes to
the amount OF $46,516.79. For his
services during this time, he re-
ceived as salary, l,575.
For period of seven months,
from November l, 1894, to June l.,
1895, l.. G. Brand collected back
taxes to the amount of $25, 597 40,
and received as commission the
sum of ST, 297.37 and an additional
$4,000 bonus to quit, making in all
$3,297.37.
Thus it will be seen that Mr..
Brand received $l,324.37 more than
the city collector for collecting
$20,9l9.39 less back taxes than the
city collector brought in during an
equal length Of time.
