PETER F. DALEY.

The story of "A Good Thing" which that jolly jester Peter F. Daley and his merry band of fun providers will pre- sent here Feb. 5. presents abundant op- portunity for novelty, action, surprise, and fun. The play, like all good farces, is a burlesque, and it hits upon board ing school for girls and the auction busl- ness. The first scene introduces the ln- terior of a very gay boarding school, where bloomers and kniekers abound in reckless profusion. An endless array of love-making mixes things up gaily. Even the austere school teacher unbends and becomes engaged to three men at once. One of these is Billy BddalL the auetioneer.' Ghe part assumed by MT. Dailey) who, in turn becomes engaged successively to the entire company of pretty misses. The climax of this maze is reached when Biddall through an er- -ror, sells the seminary in place of an adjacent fapm, and the entire school IS forced to move to New York to reclaim their effects. The second scene shows an auction room, presided over by the gay young auctiOneer, and provokes the most sidesplitting laughter of anything seen on the stage today. The trunks of the young ladies have become mixed with those of a theatrical organization, and when the school mistress commands the girls to change their clothes and to put on those in the trunks. not knowing of the change, there is a startling trans formation scene shortly afterwards which the dignified school marm little antici- pates. h the third and last act, of course, all ends happily MT. Daley has never had piece which fitted him quite so well as "A Good Thing" and it may be said to afford him greater opportuni- ties for the display of that spontaneous wit for which he is noted, than anything he has ever before done. During the action Of the play he assumes six differ ent disguises, each of which is perfect in it's way. and in each of which there are abundant opportunities for unlimited fun making.
 In MT. Dailey's company are Miss Flora Irwin, Della Stace, Wm. Barry, Jr., James T. Kelly. Charles J. Stine, Ollie Evans, the Americus comedy quartette and many others.

Four Masked Men Hold Up a Bank and Securing the Doodle Flee on Horse
 back-One Captured.

Omaha, June 2S-A special to the Bee from Deadwood, s. D., says: Four masked men last night attempted to hold up the Belle Fauche bank. With revolvers drawn they ordered the customers present and bank officials to hold up their hands. A little hesitation on the part of Cashier Marble drew a shot from the gun of one of the robbers which clipped a large DOT tion off the cashiers right ear and com pelled compliance with the requests. The drawers and safe were relieved of their contents and placed in sacks when the robbers mounting their horses, which had been placed at convenient distance, rode away.
 Iu few minutes the alarm was given and an armed posse was in pursuit of the robbers. A few miles out of town the posse came up with the robbers and running fire ensued which resulted in one of the robbers throwing up his arms and sur rendering. The others being better mount ed continued their flight, but are being closely pursued and have very few chances for esclpe.
 The day was favorable for raid on the bank for the weather was such that 1t kept the townspeople off the streets. The robbers had little opposition and had quite a start before the alarm could be given.
 As the party st | ed away after the robbery an unusual discharge of fire works on their part aroused William Giles, merchant, to the fact that some thing was wrong, and he gave the alarm. This made Giles the target for the rob- bers' weapons, but he escaped unhurt.
 The pursuit was prompt and the rob bers were soon come up with. In the fight that followed Walter Gay. of Gay & Sons, was shot through the cheek, re- ceiving a painful wound The outlaws fired right and left while riding out of town, but no one else was wounded. Thomas Day. the captured robber, was overhauled a mile and a half from town, and is now in jail at Deadwood. He is a. stranger in the vicinity. The rest of the gang is now al bay at the Three V ranch, a short distance from Belle Fourche, where they will probably be captured or killed, It transpires that less than $75 was taken from the bank, the cashier, Marble, having slammed shut and locked the doors of the vault at the entrance of the robbers. He was fired at three times only one shot taking effect He tried to return the fire, but his pistol failed him.

DUTY ON COAL.
Discussed by Republican Members of the Finance Committee-Looks Like 671s
 Cents Per Ton-O-her Rates.

Washington, June 2S.-There was meeting of republican members of the finance committee al the Arling ton hotel tonight. Most of the time was spent in discussing the rates to be imposed on coal and the proposition to fix them so that reciprocal arrangement may be arrived al with the Dominion of Canada. No formal conclusion was reached, the committee deferring final action until tomorrow morning. Strong arguments were ad vanced by some of those present in favor of rate of 40 cents per ton on coal the comment being made that the western coal fields should find market in Canada for an additional million tons per year, this statement being based on reports that the new liberal ministry of the do- minion would reduce the duty on imports of American coal to a small fem and en- ter into reciprocal arrangs ments with the United States. After the mee.ing one of the members of he committee advanced the opinion that the rate eventually fixed would be 671s cents per ton, but there would be no provisions for reciprocal treaty.
 The rate on pineapples was increased in packages 50 to 70 cen-s per cubic foot, in bulk to cents per pound.

URGENT APPEALS.
For Aid For Sufferers From the Recent Storm In Florida Will
 Be Made.

Jacksonville. Fla, June 2S.-Urgent ap- peals are coming in afresh from that part of Alachua county which was devastated by the great hurricane of June 19. The Struction appears to be greater than a t a nrevieus time since the catastrophe. Ala "a county is situated in the center sf the peninsula. midway between Jack sonville and Cedar Keys. A request for help has been received from citizens of Trenton in which the following state ments are made:
 While we most gratefully acknowledge the generous assistance received directly after our prosperous county was almost devastated. still the pitiful condition of our people inspires this earnest appeal for help at this season.
 Many families within our borders are upon the very verge of starvation-are now subsisting upon dry bread without even the hope of getting this kind of food when the present scanty supply is ex- hausted.
 "The distressing cry for food is heard in almost every quarter and unless some speedy relief is secured great suffering will be the terrible result.
 While other aid is greatly needed, still we shall only solicit the means upon which life can subsist."
 The relief committee at Gainesville state that they are receiving great ma ny earnest appeals for help and are pow erless to give much assistance. The funds in, the hands of the committee have been exhausted.
 From another source it is learned that tn necessity for immediate relief is very pressing. Corn and bacon are what is most needed.
 In view of these revelations the Jack sonville storm relief committee have de- cided to ask for additional help and to importune the governor to aid by making appeal to the cities and towns through out Florida.
 -, An appeal is also to be made through the mayors, boards of trade, or other To- cal organizations, asking that the people come together and contribute what they can. The Jacksonville association has dsbursed sS,026. leaving in the treasury a little more than $7O0 which has been voted for. the purchase of bacon, flour, meal, grits and corn, upon requisition from the local committee asking for help.
