One of the most fattering favors
ever bestowed on an American ar
fist was shown to Marie Stewart,
the fascinating chantreuse, by the
Prince of Wales. Miss Stewart APP
peared at one of London's leading
music halls and introduced her
specialties; which have since made
her famous not only in America
but in London, Paris and Berlin as
we'll; when the press throughout
Europe spoke of her as the Ameri-
lean "Fougere," who at that time
was the reigning sensation of Par
is. After Miss Stewart had finished
her act, the Prince of Wales sent
her an invitation to sing at his pri-
vate club, where only few leading
artists ever appear. She played for
sixteen consecutive weeks in Lon
don, eleven in Paris and~fcr three
months in South Africa. This sea-
son she is playing the French maid
in A Railroad Ticket" which will
be at the Lyceum on the dates Civ

Sugar from Beets.

The sugar beet is enjoying
increased importance because
of the ease with which it is
raised and the demand for
American sugar. The best
land in the Northwest for the
growing of this valuable vege-
table is along the line of the
Saint Paul & Duluth Railroad,
and it is likely that the indust-
~ will be a great one later on.

its thousands of patrons. It's

TOPEKA BRINGS SUIT
Against a Local Building Firm to Re
cover $496.

The city of Topeka is in court again,
but unlike the majority of cases in
which the city is involved, it is this
time the plaintiff in the suit. The
suit is to recover 1896 from the firm of
White & SchelOscke, and is a result of
the Improvement of fire station No.
on Jefferson street about a year ago.
White & SchelOscke is the firm which
made the improvements at the fire sta
ton, and for which they received $1,000.
The petition of the city states that it
was part of the contract that the firm
should furnish all material and labor,
but this they neglected to do, and dur
ing the last year Jonathan Thomas
brought suit against the city for some
thing over $3.50 for material furnished,
and recovered a judgment of 1896. This
amount was paid Mr. Thomas by the
city, and it is now sought to recover it
from the contractors.
The bondsmen of White & Sche1oscke
are made parties to the suit They are
