INDIGNANT" CITY OFFICIALS.

Somebody has said that some city

statement in the Registers Council re-
port that the Florence Crittenden
Home had been given free gas. The
error-if it was an error-is certainly
a pardonable one, since the present
Council has been giving free gas to
everybody who has asked for it, and
why not to the Crittenden Home along
with the rest? It is fully as deserving
as any other institution. Everybody
who has asked for free gas recently,
has gotten it-eXcept the Catholic St.
AlphOnsus Orphan Asylum-and others
will get it in the future, beyond a
doubt The fact. is. however, that the
resolution regarding gas for the Crit

1t is well known among medical men
that certain diseases are more readily
developed in certain occupations than
In others. That each occupation has
Its attendant physical weakness. Engi-

patlonS will suffer mostly from kidney
troubles and men who are often eX-
posed to the weather suffer from rheu-
matlsm. while clerks and professional
men, IN fact, the army of people whose
business keeps them indoors, are often
times great sufferers from piles and
constipation. In this connection the

Cote, All next week. Payton's Big
Comedy Company.
Nothing cheap but the prices"
is the motto of the PISTON Big
Comedy Company, which begins a
weeks engagement at the Grand
Opera House Monday evening.
One can hardly say too much in
praise of this excellent attraction, for
the name Of Corse Payton is
synonym for all that is excellent in a
theatrical sense. Payton's Big Comedy
Company will appear here all next
week in a brilliant repertoire OF com
edles and dramas, mounted and staged
by carload of magnificent scenery
and properties. In each play will be
exhibited refined specialties, gorgeous
costumes, fancy dances with calcium
effects, and an abundance of other nov
elites new to patrons Mr.. Pay
ton has spent $4,000 on these produc-
lions to make them the best ever
given at popular prices, and they are
recognized as such in all cities where
they have been produced.
The Gonzalez Opera Company sang
"Olivette" at the Grand last night to
an audience in which there were a
numbered of cultured musicians, and
their applause was the best evidence
of the excellence of the production.
The opera was splendidly cast, each
member doing artistic work. The
choruses were excellent, and the COM
edy work is deserving of special men
ton. The audience was enthusiastic
and generously applauded the meri-
tOrious features of the production.
"Oliyette" will be repeated at the mat
inee to-day, and tonight one of the
most popular of all comic operas, la
Mascotte," will be on the boards.

border drama, replete with stirring
incidents and strong Climaxes, ana
with 9 good vein Of comedy running
through the piece. The special seen
