Coming Attractions.

The Graham Earle Dramatic COM
pany is to commence knights en-
gagement at Harper's theatre Sun

mas of metropolitan recognition and
true literary merit. They entertain
their audiences with portraying
character as il truly exists, and
unitedly telling story that may In
terest, instruct and amuse without
stopping to monkey faces, vulgarity
or horse play, sometimes accepted
IS comedy. In the repertoire 20 be
produced next week the dramas are
all of refined order and should
receive the patronage of our best
people. The opening play Sunday
evening will be the beautiful roman
tic comedy. "Tbe Evil Genius"

Judge Waterman viii not remove
his residence from this city merely
because he has been elected to the
position OF Judge OF the supreme
court. He will retain his pleasant
home at GIG Kirkwood boulevard,
and he will be az home as much Of
the time as he is now, beside which
Oes Moines is not much more Of q
journey hence than Muscatine, Clin-
ton or Maquoketa. The main reason
OF the removal to Des Moines by the
men who arc elected to his Office is
that they may have ACCESS to the
splendid law library there. 1t will
not be necessary for Judge Water
man to remove on this account. The
Grant law library of this city is all
that can be desired in this line, and
ample for his needs.-Davenport
