Magnolia avenue, which has been the
pTide Of Riverside from Its founding,
and which hes wen 4 national TepGta-
tion as a boulevard, has had two de-
fecss. The streets leading to it wers
usually dusty aud disagreeab!e, while
the darkness Of the avenue, owing to the
dense foliage of the overbaBging pepper
trees, made il rather dismal evening
drive All that Is at All end. Ii is now
possible to drive from the heart OF town
over macadamized streets, perfectly free
from dust and mud, direct to the peer
less Magnolia avenue, and if the driye
be taken in the evening arc ligh.5 are
encountered every 500 feet, giving
splendid illumination. When the ave-
nue. is reached, there is presented such
sight as few, if any, towns possess.
The electric poles are but l24 feet apart.
and from these brackets project about
three feet From each bracket hangs a
cluster of three incandescent lights COW
cred with a reflector, which throws the
light On TO the driveway.
AS one stands at one end Of this row
Of lights bat four or five Of them can be
distinguished as individual lights, the
remainder forming a continuous chain
of fire which seemingly stretches away
for untold miles beneath the verdaut
canopy Of the arching pepper trees.
Modem as is the scene, it impresses the
beholder as an oriental fantasy worthy
Of tie Spanish MOors. The imagined
extent Of the wondrous chain Of fire,
however, is in degree an optical illu-
sion. Instead Of being miles in length,
it is but a little over mile. Instead Of
there being untold thousands of lights,
one is amazed 10 learn that there are
but 100, suspended from but 80 poles.

Found Guilty.

The case of the village of Wellington
VS.. Earnest Lemmel took place Tues
day morning, with Skiles, of Shelby
as defendants attorney, and Blinn and
Perkins Ms prosecuting attorneys
Krehs and Raynor, two theological
students. of Oberlin, testified that on
September 23, they had purchased al
the cafe of Ernest Lemmel, a glass OF
beer and bottle of whiskey This
bottle was produced in court and this
was not sufficient evidence to prove
that this was sold to them on the day
and month in question. Several times
during the cross. examination the wit.
nesses made conflicting statements
contradctor to each other, thus plac
ing what evidence they did give in q
rather doubtful manner as to the
truthfulness Of their statements
No evidence could be found
that would justify the court in
convicting him of selling whisky. But
the court did find him guilty of selling
beer as a beverage, and fined him
$50 and costs for selling intoxicating
liquors contrary to the existing ordi
nance prohibiting the same. The case
was appealed to a higher court.

terms and returned without securing
the mill. There is still some prospect
that an agreement may yet be reached
whereby we get the mill.

GRAND HOLIDAY CONCERT,
To be given in the Opera House by the
Ollie Torbett and Swedish Male Quin-
Club Assisted by Thomas Petrini.-The
Famous COrnetist of Pittsburg.


The Ollie Torbett and the Swedish
Male Quartett Club, assisted by Thom-
AS Petrim. the famous cornetist Of
Pittsburg. This is company worthy
of Wellington patronage in such num-
bers as to fill the opera house. Ollie
Torbett is second to no lady violinist in
America She is justly spoken of in
connection with such an artist as
Maud Powell and Camilla Urso. She
has shared the honors in many con-
certs with Emma Thursby and Clara
Louise Kellogg.
The Lutteman Quintet from Stock
holm, Sweden have been together for
number of years, and have been well
coined in almost every city in Europe
and America. Probably no combina-
tion of male voices have hBd such q
chance for perfection in training as
that Of the Lutteman quartette.
Thomos Petrini is promising young
artist on the cornet, and has already
given evidence of talent which makes
him the worthy successor Of Walter
Emerson.
Putting all these features together
in one concert it cannot fail to, make
an evenings program such as Yelling
ton has not often enjoyed.
Let all lovers of good music and
wholesome entertainments encourage
this first concert, and it may result in
creating such interest as that an after
holiday course will be arranged.
The prices are popular, 25, 35 and 30.
Children ID cents.

Grand Opera House.

The grand legendary romance, THE
Black Crook" has been presented over
1000 times, but still 1t keeps it's hold
on theatergoers. There was large
audience at the Grand opera house last
night to see the great production. The
scenic pictures of the ballets, the weird
effects and dazzling display of arInor
costumes and electrical effects have
been, as yet, unparalleled. Three bal
let's are introduced, one of which, the
ballet of gems" is a fine illustration of
terpSichorean and costumers art. The
genius of Edison has been employed,
and the electrical display will be found
marvel. Words fail to describe the
dazzling effect of the armored Amaze
MAN march beneath the variegated
lights of hundreds of incandescent
bulbs, shedding their brilliancy on the
intricate gyrations of countless pretti-
ly costumed coryphees.
Mile Camille Gantier is the premier
dancer, assisted by Sicondi Alvenzimo
and Roggeri.
The specialties introduced are very
good, especially Imro Fox, the comic
conjurer from Hammerstein's Olympia.
There will be matinee to-day, and
the evening performance closes the
engagement
'sJIM THE PENMAN."
At the Grand opera house on Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday comes the
immensely popular play, Jim, the
Penman." The company is headed by
such sterling artists as Frank G. Bangs
and Marie Edith Rice, not to mention
dozen others of unquestioned ability,
which will insure the remarkable imper-
sonation of each character and this is
only small praise when the general ex-
cellence which characterizes the en-
semble work Of this organization is
considered Matinee Saturday.

SOWING THE WIND"
In the characters OF Rosamond in
Sowing the Wind we get a hint of
what the women of the twentieth CEN
fury will be, strong In self-reliance,
proud because the harness of her soul
has been lifted, armored not with in
nocence but in the knowledge of evil.
A woman OF singular character and
beauty; a woman Of impulse and sen
timent; of strong emotion and deep
sympathy; woman of passion, re-
bellious when the affection of her heart
is threatened, and writing under the
injustice that would take from her a
lover OF whom she feels she is more
than worthy; a living, glowing woman
Of the highest intellectually, yet vir-
tue incarnate and the embodiment of
every womanly dignity. Sowing the
Wind" with strong cast will be the
attraction at the Hyperion on Satur-
day evening. Sale of seats opens to-
morrow,

Annabelle, the young woman who
has thrown a firebrand into New
York's Four Hundred by her revela-
lions concerning the Seeley dinner at
Sherry's, is making a tremendous SEN
sation at Polls Wonderland theater.
The whole New Haven population
seems anxious to see her, and the
crowds are very large at every per-
Torrance. Her dancing is of very
high order, and the beautiful electrical
effects she introduces are most char
ming to the spectators. 1t is very
pretty spectacle, the figures she exc
cutes being most enchantingly pictur-
esque. A very fine vaudeville bill is
presented likewise Among those who
contribute to it are the Cosmopolitan

"The Mandarin" DeKoven and
Smiths newest work, which is almost
an ideal comic opera, comes to the Fly
perion Friday night The libretto, by
Harry B. Smith, is excessively funny,
and to none of his other works has
Reginald Dekoven given some many
bright and ripping melodies as are
found In "The Mandarin AS its title
suggests, the story and the atmosphere
of the production are thoroughly Chi
nese. The ladies in the company are
probably the most attractive of any
ever seen on the stage in this city.
Miss Helen Redmond has rare beauty
in face and presence, in addition to her
lovely voice, and doubtless has great
future.
