Mr. Thomas Hall Of that city has in
vented a new fishing bait 1t is min
now made of German silver, and is
quite a success. The very humane
who are accustomed to fish with hook
and line much Will be glad to learn Of
this little device, as it will relieve of the
necessity of impaling the suffering fish

enjoy hook-and-line fishing with the
squirming bait worms as much as We
imagine we would with the bait that

announced that Mr.. Hackett, a
young man from Oakland, would
give an imitation of Henry Irv-
ing, the world renowned actor.
A tall young man stepped
to the platform and, passing
his hand through his rather
long locks and adjusting his eye
glasses, announced that he would
endeavor to initiate few Of Mr.. r.
wings mannerisms in reciting Lord
Tennyson's last poem.
The pose, the voice, everything
was Irving, and, before he uttered
half dozen sentences, the audience
was in an uproar, and it was with
difficulty that he was heard. Per-
sons who had heard Irving, re-
marked that there was no differ
ence between the genuine and the
imitation others who had heard
Dixey pronounced Mr.. Hackett
superior. He responded to an en-
core, and then a gentleman with
brown whiskers and a red lei gave
an imitation of a German after
|'dinner speaker, who proposed to
say what he proposed, even if there
were objections"
Lieutenant Alderdice was called
upon to deliver an impromptu
speech but when he reached the
platform he found he had left his
manuscript on the Bennington.
Then the German dialect orator

told of pathetic incident in the

CIRCUS SATURDAY NIGH
Crowded to the Doors PreSenta-
ton of Address.

Wirth's circus gave its conclud
ing performance in the tent Satur-
day night, and according to expec-
tations, played to a crowded house.
The feature of the evening was
the presentation of an Illuminated
address to Mr.. and Mrs. With. In
his speech to Mr.. and Mrs Wirth
and all the members OF the circus as
sembled in the ring, together with
the audience, Mr.. Cameron said
that the address was a mark of the
esteem of the members of the COM
pany in which they held the owner
of the circus and his amiable vile.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wirth were very
much affected by this token Of re-
spect shown by the people in the
employ of the circus.
Burns, the strong man, received
an ovation for the beautiful ascent
made during the afternoon.
Professor Price, the balloonist,
made short speech on points re-
lating to the balloon ascent of Mr..
Burns. Since there had been doubt
expressed as to. the proba bility Of
the ascent of the balloon he had
determined to put the balloon out
of sight, if possible. The fact that
he came very near doing this, peo-
pie who saw the ascent can testify
to. The altitude of 5000 feet was
made before Mr.. Burns pulled the
string, and then began one of the
finest descents that has ever been
made in the world. The aeronaut
landed back of the powder maya
zine on the slope of Punchbowl.
The balloon landed in II. Hack
fields yard and gave more than one
chicken the impression that some
dread monster was near.
At the close of these remarks the
CIRCUS program started up again
and everything went off merrily to
the end. Mr. Wirth wishes to
thank the public most cordially for
their kindness to him and his COM

THE PROPER TIME

When the most benefit is to be derived
from a good medicine, is early in the
year. This is the season when the
tired body, weakened organs and nerV-
Gus system yearn for building-up
medicine like Hoods Sarsaparilla.
Many wait for the open spring weather
and, in fact, delay giving attention to
their physical condition so long that
long siege of sickness is inevitable.
To rid the system of the impurities &C
cumulated during the winter season,
to purify the blood and to invigorate
the whole system, there is nothing
equal to Hoods Sarsaparilla. Don't
put it off, but take Hoods Sarsaparilla
now. It will do you good. Read the
testimonials published in behalf of
Hoods Sarsaparilla, all form reliable,
grateful people. They tell the story.

EVANGELIST ROMIG.
The Christian Church Packed to
the DoOrs-The Old Paths.

The Christian church was crowd
ed again last night to hear Evan
gelist Romig. The speaker took
his text from the sixth chapter OF
Jeremiah sixteenth verse, his sub
iect being "The Old Paths"
He referred briefly to the van
dering of the Israelites away from
the law Of God and to the prophets
Ezra and Nehemiah whom he call
ed guide boards" directing the
people to a return to the worship
of the true God whom they had
gradually forsaken, and he empha-
sized the fact that when the people
did return to their original wor-
ship that they were not Ezraltes or
Nehemiahites because those pro
phets had been instrumental in Sc
curing their return to their orig
inal worship, but were Israelites
just as they had been in the first
place. He then brought his text
to apply to the condition in Chris
tendon today; the church with her
indefensible, infdel making divi-
sions, her following after human
leaders, human creeds, and con-
fessions of faith, her wearing of
human names, and all her apos-
tasus and defections from 1.-The
faith once delivered to the saints"
which the Apostle Paul so strenu-
ously rebuked in his letter to the
Corinthian church. The people
from this standpoint made a mas
terful plea for the restoration OF
the primative Apostolic church for
her doctrines and ordinances as
left by her founder and taught and
practiced by the apostles. He ex-
allied the Christ as the one and
only creed for all people, for all
time. He said if all the Christians
in Amerita would just take the
Bible alone and stand on that one
platform, there would be but one
church in Amerisa. If Christians
everywhere would do that Christ's
prayer that his followers might be
lone" would be answered.

grow weary in his selection of per
sons to contribute toward the even
ing's entertainment.
The arrangements committee
Messrs. Frank, Auerbach, Mackin-
tosh, w. L. Stanley and w. Thomp-
son-were assiduous in their efforts
to make everyone feel at home.
Among.th numbers on the pro-
gram it cannot be said that there
was a single break. DIR. Herbert,
who was down for a song, was not
present owing to illness.
Mr.. Brasch, the president of the
club, gave a very interesting talk,
and Mr.. Towse was called upon for
a few remarks.
A. St. NJ. Macintosh who has
earned a reputation as the define
ator of "coster songs" rendered
"The Coster's Serenade" so accept
ably that the audience yelled itself
hoarse in its demand for more. He
responded very graciously with
1.-The nawsty way he says it.'
Chester A. Doyle the popular
baritone singer was in his usual
good voice and upon special re-
quest set the hearts of the Trilby-
ties humping with Don't you
remember sweet Alice
There were piano solos by George
Ashley, and quartettes by Messrs.
Wilder, Coney, Norton and Dill
bingham. Then Mr.. Marsden
showed the audience how easy it
was to take cards from the pocket
of young man who doesn't know
the difference between the jack of
diamonds and the tray Of hearts.
Then he brought enough blue and
white ribbon from the young man 5
pocket to convince the public that
he was m the notion business.
After this Messrs. Taylor, Marx
and George Smithies rendered a
trio on the cello, violin and piano.
Dan Logan recited the " Eve of
Waterloo" There were so many
things done and done so well that
it was impossible to keep track OF
them. If any have been overlook
ed it has not been intentionall y
done. In the free-for-all, after the
programme had been exhausted,
Chester Doyle was called upon for
more songs, and he was not allow
ed to leave until the end OF the
repertoire was reached, and it was
so long that George Ashley, the
accompanies, had tented from
exhaustion and his place was taken
by Professor Berger, and when
Doyle finally gave out the pro-
fessor sang the melody to Doyle's
gestures
Mr.. Marx was called upon for a
violin solo, but was not permitted
to sit down until he had played
three. Mr.. Macintosh sang My
Old Dutch" and for a hearty en-
core the ever popular Tommy
Atkins"
