AT CITY MISSION HALL.

On Sunday at the City Mission hall Mrs Dr. Vishno sang by request for the children of the Sunday school the solo, "Is Thy Way So Rough, Oh Pilgrim?" Miss Holt played the accompaniment. At the suggestion of Judge Cleaveland, the superintendent, the children voted to send Mrs. Ballington Booth $5 of their Sunday school offerings for her work among the prisoners. In the eve ming the peoples service was in charge of the Christian Endeavor society of the United church. MT. Waters of Yale seminary was leader for the society, as- sisted by Messrs. Christy. Hartshorn, Mansfield and Pratt and Mrs. Walter Downs, Miss Richardson and Miss Bright Francis Potter led the singing and there were several selections by a double quartet, Miss Law accompany ing. The subject of the meeting was Spiritual Power Through Prayer" During the after-meeting, led by the missionary pastor, there were a num- Der of testimonies and requests for prayer from the large audience pres ent and many remained for conversa- tion with members of the Endeavor society.

Polls Wonderland Theater.

This house was taxed to it's very. ut most capacity both afternoon and eve ming yesterday. Instead of the Barri- son sisters whom Manager Poli would not for moment think of playing on his stage Mile. Fleurette and her four Fleurs deLis were the feature. Their act is highly sensational one, quite as racy in legitimate way as is that Of the Barrisons in the other directicn, and they made a signal hit with the audiences. Where they used fish pole to angle among the spectators the mer- riment was intense and eXolosive. An excellent accompanying vaudeville bill is presented. Among those who con- tribute to 1t are MT. Carr and Miss Jordan, the Burke brothers with their donkey, Irish Mike" Alburtus and Bartram, Lorenze and Allen, Francis J. Bryant, the World Trio. and MT
 Stanley and Miss Scanlan. It is an ex- cellent show throughout and ought to draw very large houses all the week.

Nab" Henry Budworth as "Algernon Church." the author, opet, actor and stage manager is very clever In each of the three acts are distributed several up to- date songs, which are well rem dered. Miss Irene Hernandez at once became a favorite in her song, "The Girl with the Naughty Wink" in which she is quite chic. Miss Jennie Key holds possesses a mezzo soprano voice which is used to advantage in her Irish songs and Maurice Haynes and Harry Budworth are good in their specialties. The entire company sings well and Is worth or liberal patronage. This and tomorrow evening, with the usual Wednesday matinee, concludes the engagement
 The Cotton King" one of William A. Bradys most beautiful productions will be here on Thursday, Friday and Sat urday at the Grand Opera house. It is seldom that any manager eXpends money so lavishly as Manager Brady has done on the Cotton King" It is equipped this season with entil ely new scenery and effects. The cast is an exceptional one, being specially se- lected for this piece, It requires a force of twelve carpenters to place the scenery in position and four special men to run the calcium effects. Thus it can be seen that this is not an ordi- nary attraction. It combines all the ele- ments of success, a beautiful story, beautifully told and embellshed by all the effects necessary to make it a great production. Matinee Saturday.

Grand Opera House.

'O'Dowd's Neighbors,' which for a long time has enjoyed the reputation of being one of the funniest comedies on the road vas presented by Murray and Murphy's comedians headed by Mark Murphy at the Grand opera house last evening" The story of the farce all hinges on the adoration of O'Dowd and McNab for the young and wealthy Widow Riley. Mark Murphy Is at times so very funny that even the sup porting company are compelled to join with the audience in it's round after round of laughter. We are always in- debted to those who really make us laugh, and in this respect Murphy and his associates have achieved marked success. His contemporary Patrick Miles makes very good Marcus Me

ENTERTAINMENT.
Hyperion.

Mr. Albert Chevalier, the famous English singer of coster-songs, appear ed at the Hyperion theater last evening and lavished himself his personality and his art on a small audience, The audience made up in interest and en- thusiasm what it lacked In numbers, One heard as much of Chevalier in one protraeted evening as would be possi- ble in several visits to the 'alls." And the company which assisted Mir Chev- alier in his entertainment were all es- pecially clever in their specialties, and the entire program contained nothing to which the most prudish could object, wherein 1t did not at all remind one of the 'alls."
 Chevalier and Yvette Guilbert are the most famous vaudeville artists" be- fore the public, and they are justly called great The talents are different, and Guilbert is undoubtedly the great CT of the two. Guilbert, however, is recitist, whereas Chevaler is a come dian. Guilbert takes types of the peo- pie and presents them with unblushing truth to nature. Chevalier takes unat- tractive types from the same class of people and humanizes and romances with them until they come to us in an idealized form. Both are dependent on unique and striking personalities. MT Chevalier gave of his best last night, and it was a delightful and pleasura- ble performance
 Evans & Hoey, with beautiful Anna Held, are the magnets which promise to pack the Hyperion tonight. These two splendid entertainers and old time partners, Charles F. Evans and Will liam Hoey, after three years of separa- tion, have once again joined hands and conspire in making the best of all the Hoyt farce comedies a bigger success than ever. Sale of seats now open. THE GAY PARISIANS. "The Gay Parisians," which made such a great hit in New York, Boston, Chicago and Philadelphia, will be seen at the Hyperion tomorrow evening, This funny play, which is one of Man ager Charles Frohman's latest comedy importations, was designed to make one i laugh, and 1t fills the bill to perfection. W. J. Ferguson is alone a great at traction, Miss Sadie Martinot is always clever, and dear old Mrs. Phillips is more charming than many younger actress. Sale of seats now open.
 BRIAN BORU.
 The grand opening of Stange & Ed
 wards famous Irish opera, Brian Boru," will take place at the Hyperion on Friday night. The success of Brian Boru" at the Boston theater has been just as great as in New York. It is an interesting work, includes many brilliant artists and is superb produc- | ton. The music can almost be termed l grand opera. It abounds in stately | choruses and stirring concerted pieces, while throughout a distinctively na- tional flavor is preserved. But in all : instances, the melodies are introduced with discretion and taste. The libretto 1 is admirable, and the comic element is cleverly intermixed throughout. The plot is also one that touches the popu- lar vein being of Ireland in her time | of greatness when the famous Brian Boru was the hero of the nation. Sale of seats now open.

government in the Edgington case, on trial
in the federal court for the last week. and
the prospects are that another day will be
consumed in taking testimony. The addi-
tional witnesses are brought in by the gov
ernment in rebuttal. The majority of them
come from Scott county, in the vicinity Of
Dubuque, and they are called for the pur-
pose OF disproving Edgington's statement
that he did not learn that his real name
the name OF his father was Perkins and not
Edgington until after he had applied for a
pension for his mother in the name of F.
M. Edgington At the previous trial Edg-
ington testified that this knowledge first
came to him from his grandmother while
