Untoward Results of Substituting Bull
for a Horse in " Mazepp2."
Jim Larkin was noted character of
Cheyenne in the '70s, says the Ana
conda Standard. Larkin was one of
those harmless, officious fellows and
had his nose into everything. There
was never dog fight but in some way
he got bitten; never a fire but he got
burned, and never an accident but he
was there in time to get hurt, Larkin
was something of a Snowman. During
his residence in Cheyenne a colored
tragedian filed an engagement in that
city, playing Hamlet" and "Othello."
Larkin saw in the colored man a great
opportunity to make money and in
duced him to play "Mazeppa," using a
wild bull instead of a wild horse. The
tragedian fell into the idea and re-
hearsals for the great event were had
The performance was given in large
hall, which was crowded to the DOORS
The play went off lovely until it was
time for the wild bull of Tartary to be
brought on and then there was a slight
hitch. The bull had suddenly become
reluctant about going on the stage
Manager Larlzin got behind him and
gave the animals tail twist. 1t had
the desired effect. The bull rushed up
on the stage and tore Out every foot Of
scenery and then jumped off into the
orchestra, landing on top of the slide
trombone player. The audience
stampeded and jumped through the
windows and doors, and in very few
minutes the bull had everything to
himself The ''Mazeppa" engagement
closed that night

possession of them. In addition, l had a
strange weakness in my back and around my
waist, together with an indescribable gone
feeling in my stomach. Physicians said it
was creeping paralysis, from which, accord
ing to their universal conclusion, there is no
relief Once it faStenS upon q person, they
say, it continues its insidiOus progress until
it reaches q vital point and the sufferer dies

a year and a half steadily, but with no par
ticular benefit. when [ saw an advertisement
of DR. Miles Restorative Neryine, procured a
bottle and began using it. Marvellous as it
may seem, but few days had passed before

indication of its return. [ now feel as

The latest wrinkle in the way of 8 theater coupon is duplicate ticket that will enable the visitor to any theater to be found and called away from the au- dience at any time during the perform ance without attracting any undue amount of notice or disturbing his neighbors to any material extent. A duplicate of the coupon that the theater goer holds is left with the ticket taker at the entrance. A messenger seeking the theater goer gets this duplicate and hands 1t to an usher, who quietly noti- fies the man that somebody wants to see him. A supply of these special coupon tickets is given to the ticket taker be- fore each performance, and he gives them to those who ask for them free of charge. The plan is now on trial at the Casino, New York, and is likely to be adopted by all the theaters. The idea has been patented by a theater goer who has made long study of men in the au- dience, and who says he is going to make money out of it. it.-NewYork Sun.

BARRETT'S NOVEL PLAN.
Chicago Will Soon Have an Electrica
 Water Supply.


 Water Supply.
 Chicago is to have an electrical water supply system.
 The city electrician, the commission CT of public works and the city engineer held a conference yesterday which will result in a complete revolution in the waterworks system of Chicago. At the conclusion of the conference Mir. Bar rett was authorized to proceed at once with the preparation of plans and speci- feations, and it may be positively stat ed that no time will be lost in proceed ing with work which will quickly furnish every section of the city with an adequate supply of water and give Chicago the finest system of waterworks in the world.
 John P Barrett is the inventor, or more properly the digeoverer, of the new system. Years ago Mir. Barrett in vented and put into operation the won derful electrical appliances which have since been copied by the police and fire departments of every progressive city on earth In the opinion of competent mechanical experts who have had an opportunity to examine the electrical water supply system the latter will rank even higher i'll the scale of municipal utility.
