very well last night considering the
heavy counter attraction, the gather
ing being much better than that usu-
ally seen on Monday nights. Master
and Man" undoubtedly scored hit.
and the innovation of an exciting, SEN
sational play seemed greatly to please
the patrons of the house. Mr.. Kyle
received such an ovation on his en-
trance that he could hardly proceed
with his part, and ne sustained the role
OF the hero throughout with manliness
and earnest fidelity. A decided hit was
made by Mr.. Edwards in the character
role, and all the others, especially Ross
and Blakemore in comedy parts and
Tiny Burton as the child, were speci-
ally good. More extended mention will
be made OF the production later in the
week; 1t is evident, however. from the
number of curtain calls last evening
that the piece caught on in emphatic
style.
VICTORY BATEMAN COMING
The San Francisco papers at hand yes
terday announced that Victory Bate
man had resigned her place with Mo-
rosco's company and the management
OF the Grand last night stated that she
would open with them two weeks from
last evening. The news will be re-
ceived with genuine pleasure, for the
engagement is the most important of
any the house has made for d long
time past. 1t is probable that Ca
price will be the play in which Miss
Bateman viii make her temperance.
t is understood that Miss Valleau's en-
5agement will end in two weeks and
hat she will return to the east.
The San Francisco papeIs sprung
of a sensation the other
lay by announcing that Mr.. Kyle and
MISS Bateman were engaged to be
married, and some of them said the
marriage had taken place. Mr.. Kyle
asst evening said both reports were
entirely unfounded.

LIQUOR LICENSES.

County Attorney Van Colt, by deputy
Attorney Putnam, sent in an opinion
to the board stating that the county
commissioners in their discretion can
fix the price of liquor licenses to 81, 200
annually, but no higher. The time may
be for any period of time not less than
three months nor more than one year.

81, 900.

draft of a resolution to be used in case
the board decided to raise the price of
the license.
No action was taken in the matter
and the resolution was laid over to
come up at the next meeting of the
board. This was done to give parties
affected by the contemplated change

information that might aid the board

would be the reasonable figure for
liquor licenses in the outside districts.
