The old homestead of General Grant at Old Orchard and the views of the Fair Grounds are faithful to life. land the stable scene in the second act is one of the most graphic pictures ever put on stage. The horses are all well known, and ono of them, Free land, was king of the turf nine years ago. The company is composed Of talented people, and in some respects is superior to the organization of last season. Viola Arthur still fills the role as Nell Williams, who rides the winner. Eddy Giguere as Tommy Bell, is an ideal Tommy Bell, and gets good deal of fun out of the >part. Eunice Ramsay. a St. Louis girl, is the Alice Noble of the piece. She was pupil of John Nor Ugh and would have made her debut last season but for his death. Her friends are much gratified at the manner Tn Which she is fulfilling the promise of her prenticeship, and are confident that she will win fame and fortune in her nrnfession.

The Police Judge has no legal right to discriminate between men guilty of the same offenses, when they are brought before his court. The ordinance making it a misdc- meanor to associate with immoral characters has been held to be un- constitutional, yet, knowing this fact, the Judge allows one man ar rested for the offense to go free be- cause he is represented by an at torney, and finds another, who had not the means to employ lawyer for n like offense. Let justice be, done to all alike.

what might have been very serious

sleigh when near the place OF Fin
Thomas one Of tile brides came off and
the team became unmanageable and
ran off," upsetting the sleigh, spilling
the occupants. Miss Marker escaped
with slight injuries, while Johnnie hold
ing to the lines was dragged some dis
tance, his face being badly bruised. At
last he let go and the team disappeared
IN the darkness, but the young folks
were not to be discouraged by snch
trifles; they borrowed another team and
went on. After going three or four
miles they found the first team, tied it
To the fence and proceeded on to the
dance had a good time, then came back
10 where the team was tied; each drove
team until the borrowed team vas
returned. Some evil-disposed persons
seem to think Johnnie was holding the
lines with his teeth and, being some
thing Of a novice in this style of driving,
the above results were brought about.
We cannot tell how this NAV be, but
suggest he get an old crippled team and
hang the lines over the dash board on
future occasions Of this kind.

at the door he asked one Of them to
pinch his ear so he could tell whether
he was alive or not; but they didn't al
low his anazement to stop the fun.

tired; spread feast OF delicacies brought
from home Gas they seemed to know
something uf the scanty nature OF bach |

a short time and returned to their homes
all seeming to have greatly enjoyed the
party. BOYER seemed 10 think he had 1
done a bright thing by locking young
couple (who had Jagged behind) in the
cellar, expecting to hear frenzied calls
for deiverance, bnt hearing none he
thought it best to let them out, as they
might make sad inroads on his grub. !

due Difference TO those who follow the
custom, we would suggest that il is not
good taste. The thanks are uncalled
for and unnecessary. In Christian
community, the care OF the sick and
the burial Of the dead with proper and
becoming respect and decency, are not
things TO return thanks for, for they are
the simple duties Of the friends and
neighbors, acts performed for others
that others will repay by performing
similar services for them, Let the card
