THE ,JAPS.

The San Antonio Edison street car
company took out a large number of
persons to Scheuermeyer's park last
night to witness the performance by
the excellent troupe of Japanese jug
glers and acrobats.
The performance, as on the previous
night, was an excellent one; and was
heartily appreciated by the large au.-
dience. The acts were many, novel
and varied and showed the wonderful
skill of the little performers to per-
lection.
The street car service was excellent
and everyone was highly pleased with
the evenings entertainment. 1t will
continue every night this week.

will go along with the party.
A Kotenai company intends building
road this winter. The proposed trail
lies right through the heart of the
gold belt and prospectors say the
country is as rich as Klondike; that
gold can be found five or six hundred
miles south of the Yukon river. As
matter of fact the Klondike finds are
not as rich as the strikes made in the
Cariboo 81 years ago.
