SO if you wear a No. 10

Well open when you knock,
And welcome you with open arms,
But don't forget your sock

APRoPos THE FIRE ALARM.
The Insurance Men Agitated Over
the Situation.

The matter Of raising the insurance
rates in this city Is the main topic of
conversation since Mr.. j. +. Hughes,
of Scranton. has made several visits
to the city recently and has interviewed
several prominent insurance agents.
This city is represented on the fire
maps used by the various insurance
companies as being equipped with an
up-to-dato fire alarm.
The mistake occurred through an
agent giving the map CngraVer tu un-

most a year ago. matters assumed the
appearance OF an immediate action he
ing taken by the counCilmen, but that
action has not as yet been effected. On
Jan. |. if the gravity shuts down, the
city will have no alarm whatever. The
insurance agents express themselves as
satisfied that an increase of over twen-
ty-five per cent will be made in the
rates. which are rather high at pres
ent. The action of the mayor i'm Veto
ing the roCe.it resolution in councils
for the providing of II fire alarm Ordin-
ance has been the cause of the stir.
The mayor says that he did not veto
a fire alarm ordinance. as is generally
supposed. but that lie disapproved of

A SOCIETY EVENT.
The Coming of the Geisha Causes
Quite a Flutter.

1t is safe to say that the banner event
of the year in this city 50 far as comic
opera il concerned viii be the produce
tion at the Grand opera house ON Tues
day evening next of the Japanese musi-
cal play. The Gcisha" from Days
theatre. New York. Mr.. DAILY himself
is authority for the statement that
The Gcisha' was one of his success
full productions and that its success at
his London house was only duplicated
by its success at his Broadway theatre.
The lihretta is by owen Hail. lyrics by
Henry Greenbank and the music 10y
Sidney Jones.
The production Is complete in every
way and the organization carries its
own orchestra. hence the unpleasant
features of an orchestra unfamiliar
with the music is entirely done away
with and both singers and orchestra
will be in perfect harmony. The young
ladies in the cast are delightfully."- young
with very pleasing voices.
