GRAND OPERA HOUSE-To-night.
The DeacOns Daughter; last half OF
week, Gus HIS Novelties.
The favorable impression which was
created by Lillian Kennedy in The
Deacon's Daughter" at the Grand
Opera House Monday night, served to
give the production a viva voce ad-
vertisement, which resulted in a large
and appreciative audience last night.
Miss Kennedy may be fairly said to
have equalled Annie Pixley in the
comedy part, and she sings with an eX-
preston that is very pleasing. Her vo-
cal numbers, and those of other mem
bers of the company, were repeatedly
encored. There will be no matinee to-
day, this being Ash Wednesday, but
the engagement will close with to-
nights performance. Seats at the box
office.
Chas. A. Gardner, in Karl, the Ped
die" will be the next attraction at the
Opera House. The engagement is for
one night only, Thursday, March 4th.
Gardner is a popular favorite every
where and the name of his friends IN
Wheeling is legion. He is regarded as
the foremost German dialect comedian
upon the stage, while his rendition OF
tuneful melodies has given him prest-
ige attained by few artists. Karl, the
Peddler" is a drama written especially
for Mr.. Gardner, and it gives him
abundant opportunities for the display
of those qualities which have endeared
him to the theatre-going public.
For three nights and Saturday mat
inee at the Grand Opera House, COM
mencing Thursday, March 4th, Gus Hill
and his celebrated world of novelties
will he the attraction. The company
is exceptionally strong and is composed
of such well known artists as the Speck
Bros. dwarf comedians, surnamed
Kings of Laugh-makers; Gilbert and
Goldie. in farcial tips; Rice and Ell
mer. wonderful bar performers; mont
gomery and Stone, Annie whitney
FraSk Latona Leonard and Bernard,
the great Bingham: Lidall and AlVers;

Among this seasons most popular
attractions is Eddie Foy, in the new
edition of his successful spectacular
comedy. "Of the Earth, which, with
company of forty people, he will pre-
sent at the Opera House next Monday

Lived on What They Took.

There is one thing which is not gen.

Mosby and his men never received one
cent from the Confederate government.
Each man provided himself with his
own uniform, horse and arms. and
boarded himself. The United States
government furnished rs with captured
horses, arms and ammunition, and the
extra horses captured paid our board.
So, instead of receiving pay from the
Confederate government. we turned
over to them horses, mules and arms.

Speaking of Lincoln's birthday"
said Senator Palmer, reminds me that
the very last case Lincoln ever tried was
one in which /, too, was engaged. 1t
was in Springfield, in June, 1860, after
Mr.. Lincoln had received the presiden-
tial nomination. Old David Baker, who
had been a senator in the early days, had
sued the trustees Of Shurtleft college,
my alma mater, for expelling his grand
son, q lad named Will Gilbert. Mr..
Lincoln appeared for the prosecution. l
was the college attorney. Mr.. Lincoln
came into court, and the judge said to
him: Mr.. Lincoln, I'll argue this case
for you. You have too much on your
hands already. You haven't any case. >
And he explained the law and applica-
ton.
"'Well, said Mr.. Lincoln. with a
smile, don't you want to hear speech
from me?'
"'No,' said the judge, and the last
case Mr.. Lincoln tried newell, he
didn't try it at all. Washington Post.

Passion of Washing tons Life.

Writing of Washington great pas
sion, Sally Cary, in The Ladies' Home
Journal, Mrs. Burton Harrison says I:
Apparently so riddled by the shafts
of the little god of love had been
the heart of Washington, the boy, that
it is hard to know how, after his signs
for the 'Lowland Beauty (Sally Cary,
and his repeated addresses to Miss Bet
sew Fauntelroy, and his later sensibility
to the charms Of the very agreeable
young lady, afterward Mrs. Amber,
the passion for q woman who never
might be his could have dominated him
as it did for so many years. But from
the evidence of his own letters the love
he had felt for the others was as water
unto wine beside the hopeless attach
ment for his beautiful neighbor, Sally
Cary, that during this period threatened
to assume sovereign controur OF his
ardent nature. Fortunately, thanks to
time, to the lady's subsequent absence
in England with her husband, and,
above all, because it was made subject
to his own indomitable will, the feel
ing was subdued, and his marriage with
Mrs GUSTS ended the episode happily.
"The proofs are the enduring init
macy and confidence that existed between
Washington, his wife and every mem
Der of the Belvoir family during theil
respective lives. They may be read by
any student of the writings of Washing
ton and will carry conviction III eacf

HONEY AS A FOOD.
II IL Easy Of Digestion--Benefcia In Soma
Cases OF Disease.

Probably most people consider honey
rs the equal In value for food of any
1weet sauce-no better, no worse. All
should know that ii possesses one great
superiority-ease Of digestion. The nee
tar OF flowers is almost wholly cane
sugar. The secretions added by the bees
change this to grape sugar and so pre-
pare ii that ii is almost ready for as.
sanitation without any effort on the
part of the stomach. In fact, Professor
A. j. Cook once styled honey "digested
nectar" 1t will be readily seen that
honey is very desirable food for those
with weakened digestive powers If
person is very tired. "too exhausted to
eat, it is astonishing how few tastes
of honey will act almost like magic.
Almost no effort is required to make it
ready for assimilation. Persons suffer-
ing from some forms of kidney trouble
will find that honey is much more
beneficial food for them than is cane
sugar.
In eating comb honey many strive to
eject every particle of wax, fearing that,
as wax is indigestible, nightmare and
other troublesome consequences will fol-
low an indulgence in warm biscuit and
honey. 1t is true that bread is more
easily digested than warm biscuit. as
the latter is inclined to pack" in chew
ing, but it may surprise some to know
that comb honey is really an aid to the
digestion of hot bread or biscuit. The
philosophy of the matter is that the
flakes of wax prevent the packing, "
while the honey readily dissolves out,
leaving passages for the gastric juice to
enter the mass Of food. The flakes of
wax are indigestible, that is true, but
when warmed are perfectly smooth and
soft and will not injure the most deli.
cate membrane. In fact, they act as q
gentle stimulant and are beneficial in
some forms of alimentary difficulties.
The unpleasant symptoms from which
some suffer after eating honey may of
ten be removed by drinking little
milk. Albany Cultivator.

A Pointed Question.

The great question whether the use
of forks is understood in Chicago hav-
ing been happily settled in Paris, 1t
may be asked in seriousness whether
forks are not too much used in Chicago
and everywhere else. Not that anybody
wants to use the knife for conveying
food to the mouth, but might not the
teaspoon as a part of the dinner equip
ment be little more prominent?
People of breeding train their chill
dren to eat peas, for instance. with a
fork, tabooipg the spoon for no apparent
reason other than that its use would
simplify and facilitate the operation.
On the same principle they ought to eat
their peas with chopsticks. as China
man could easily do. So with certain
kinds of pie and pastry. The relish is
marred by the loss Of juices too thin Tor
the fork to carry. Yet the man who
values his social reputation must not
ask for spoon. :,
The proper use of the silver FORK
might be better understood II it were
regarded as modified shovel with linn
itations imposed by its Sits. For solids
IL is an excellent shovel. For liquids 1t
is naturally failure The countryman
who ON his first visit to city hotel
asked the water for a spoon with nc
Sits in it was no legitimate subject OF
ridicule. He was an impartial critic
being without the prejudice OF habit OF
tradition. Hotel Mail.
