ORPHEUM.-The audiences show no
diminution in size and the varied pro-
gram is of kind that satisfies the most
exacting. Operatic selections, darkey
turns and acrobatic feats make up a
capital bill Of fare. The only number
that was Objectionable, namely the pan
tomime act, has been pruned down SO
that the worst portions Of 1t have been
eliminated; the management wisely
concluding after one exhibition that it
was not entirely suitable for a first class
vaudeville house. The trapeze perform
ance by Mademoiselle Ami, which winds
up the bill, is one of the most interest
ing and clever pieces Of work Of the kind
ever shown on this stage. The dainty,
graceful little woman is loudly applaud
ed for her daring feats every night.

When court took a recess in December
there was not much business remaining
on tie docket, the grand jury was dis
charged for the term, and the adjourned
session promised to be short AMI un.
important one. But this has been
changed, the grand jury has been order
ed to convene again, and next weeks ses-
sion of court promises to be one of the

Owing to the vigilance and good de-
tective work of Sheriff Christie, one of
the most alert and best officers who ever
tracked cri ninal, there are now in Jail
five men charged with three murders
who were not behind the bars when
court was last in session. These are
General Hayes, who 50 brutally whipped
and burned his little child to death and
left for parts unknown, Ed Stevens, who
killed Jack Gresham Christmas week
and fed, and Harris Floyd, OSs Kelly and
Turner Solomon, who must answer for
killing Owen Cross, whose murder was
shrouded in mystery for several DAYS.
All of these have been gathered in by
Sheriff Christie, and it is to investigate
the charges of murder against those
connected with the killing of Gresham
and Cross that the grand jury is ordered
to meet again. Hayes is already under
indictment.

The LICENSE ORDINANCE.
CITY COUNCIL FIXES SPECIAL
TAXES FOR 1897.
A Reduction Of $50 in the Retail
Whiskey License. Cigarettes
Taxed.

The city council met Thursday night
to hear the report of the finance com
mittee, to whom the special license or
dinance for 1897 had been referred by
Mayor Cheatham. The committee, COM
posed of Aldermen Davis, Melton and
Dean, had given the preparation of tn e
ordinance much time and attention, and
it was adopted as reported by them with
the exception of two or three minor
ch anges
The retail whiskey license was reduced
from $500 to $3.50, but on many bust
nesses the license was Increased. The
fireworks tax was raised to 5000, and will
very likely be prohfbitive in its effect
A license of SIS was put upon cigarettes,
and many businesses and avocations, in
clu6ing private boarding houses, that
have heretofore been free are now on the
taxable list.
In fixing the ordinance the committee
and the council had in view the distr-
button upon all the people who do bust
ness in the city the burden of sustaining
the city government, which has hereto
fore been borne by a comparative few,
an the making of the general tax bur
den lighter.
THE NEWS, which again has been
selected as the city's official medium,
publishes the ordinance in full else
where. To the business men and people
generally of Dawson the ordinance will
prove interesting reading, as it reveals
the sources from which large part of
the city's revenue will be derived, and
also informs one of the amount he will
be required to pay INFO the city treasury
if he engages in certain lines of business.
An important feature of the ordinance
is that it requires every one to register
his business and Location with the city
clerk.

The First Lighthouses.

Lieutenant John Nj. Ellicott, o. s.
N, writes for st. Nicholas, a paper on
lighthouses, entitled: "Ihe Lights
That Guide in the Night" Lieutenant
Ellicott says:
When ships are sailing upon the
ocean the lights of heaven are their
guides. Even in the dark ages, when
the compass and sextant were un-
known instruments, the seemingly mo-
tionless pole star hung like a beacon
light in the northern heavens, and the
rising and setting OF the sun and stars
distinguished the east from the west.
When, however, ships come near the
land the lights of heaven ore not sufi-
cient safely to guide them. Rocks lie
in their paths unseen in the night
reefs and shoals spread under the
water; while unsupported currents
sweep the frail craft all blindly upon
these dangers.
Nevertheless, ships were sailed along
dangerous coasts for centuries before
PLAIN system of marking dangerous
places was invented. The early ma
riners were bold and reckless rovers,
more than half pirates, who seldom
owned a rood OF the coasts along which
they sailed, and could not have estab-
lished lights and landmarks on them
had they cared to do so. The rude be-
ginning, then, of a system of light
houses was when the merchants with
whom the reckless mariners traded in
those dark ages built beacons near the
harbor mouths to guide the ships into
port by day, and lighted fires for their
guidance at night. AS such harbor-
guide had to be sure landmark in the
daytime and light by night, it soon
took on a settled shape-a tower on
which could be built a fire; and such
tower was usually built of stone.
This method of guiding ships into
the ports which they sought was
scarcely established before human
wickedness used it rs a means for their
destruction. Bands of robbers, or, os
they came to be called, "wreckers,
would hide themselves somewhere neal
|, the haven sought by a richly lader
] vessel, and after overpowering the fire
keepers would extinguish the beacon
, fire on the night on which the ship
, was expected. Then they would ligh'
another fire near some treacherou
3 reef The mariner, sailing boldly to
| wards the false light, would dash hi
? vessel to destruction on the reef
8 whereupon the robber band woul,
