poli,s Wonderland Then.er.

No one but who was delighted by the players at the Wonderland this week and all visitors are frank to admit that Manager Poli has the knack of selecting features that are first-class and pleas ing, with no objectionable elements. The reception given Miss Lillian Burk- hart and Watson and Hutchins, not to say the hearty approval of the other acts outside these features, was posi- tive evidence of satisfaction. Again there will be a double-feature bill next week, with indication, on a perusal of the list, that some of the other acts will not be far behind in the race for first honors. One feature is a specially inn ported one, just released by Roster & Bial, and is presented by the three Sis ters Merkel. Another is the very funny skit, "A Telephone Boy,'' which is the newest success of the comedians Crim- mins and Gore. In the olio will be Wills and Loretto, "The Tramp and the Soubrette;" James w. Reagan, late principal tenor of Primorse and Vests minstrels; the marvellous Seymours, TilPs marionettes, the Marinellas, Wal ton and Doyle and others. Price 10 cents and 20 cents; ladies in the after noon 10 cents. Bikes checked free.

SOME DIALECT STORIES.

The Southern dialect continues to re- veal it's quaintness MT. Torrey has recorded this F1ordia dialogue:
 What time might 1t be-"
 'Six o'clock"
 "Lan' sakes! I didn't know it was so sune as that"
 Soon" in this case probably mean ing early. He has also put on record the answer of the North Carolinian who was asked if he had been at the worlds fair.
 No; I lowed for to went, but I didn't git to go."
 I have lately heard a bit of genuine negro English which may do to go with these examples. A young lady of my acquaintance was visiting at a house where a colored lad was kept as a sort of boy -all-work. After she had been there day she overheard a conversa- tion between the cook and this boy.
 How do you like the company" asked the cook.
 q like her right weH,' said the boy.
 Do you think she's pretty?"
 Well" said the lad, "she ain't 'zack- ly pretty, but she'll dew well 'nough whar dar ain't no better at!'-Boston Transcript.

DEMOCRATIC MEMBERS CAUCUS
Common Council Doubts Where Power

Common Council Doubts Where Power
 of Appointment Rests.
 The democratic members of the court of common council held a caucus last night in the aldermanio chamber in City hall for the purpose of considering the matter of the appointment of mill itary enrolment officer A question has arisen as to whether the power of appointing this officer rests with the court of common council or with the board of selectmen. After the matter had been discussed at some length it was decided to appoint a committee to look the matter up and report at an ad- iourned meeting. Alderman Hogan of the Seventh ward was chairman of the caucus adn he was authorized to ap- point the committee. He made the ap- pointments later in the evening and announced the makeup of the com- rnittee to be as follows: Alderman Hen ry E. Norris of the Sixth ward, Alder man D. P. Ryan of the Seventh ward, Alderman Thomas Brennan of the Fourth ward, Councilman Walter F. Walsh of the Twelfth ward, and Coun- ,ilman J, s. Sullivan of the Eleventh ward.
 The committee will not report the name of a nominee for the office of enrolment officer. but will simply re- mort back the result of investigation as to where the power of appointment rests. Corporation Counsel Ely in an opinion rendered bv him about year ago stated that the court Of common council had authority to appoint an enrolment officer.
