Lady Audley's Secret.

This society drama, Lady Audley's
Secret, was played to small audi
euce last night. Miss Emma War
rem as Lady Audley, did fairly well
was sustained by other members of
the cast in like manner. The
costuming of her ladyship was true
to promise elaborate and was very
becoming to the lady indeed The
other lady members we're cOstumed
ia becoming gowns. The gentle
men actors came up to the stand
ard of their former acting. The
play lackeK the snap, that should be
infused into a play of this kind
when a snap is due and We recog-
nize in the play several climaxes
aud periods where some giu ger
could have been used which would
have given some zest to the play.
The orchestra treated the audi
ence to some fine selections during
the evening. This evening the
company will play, TOO Many
Tompkins', or "The Three Hats.
This piece is comedy, and We hope
the house will be crowded as oul
theatre goers like comedy and are
ever ready to have a good laugh
over ridiculous situations or witty
sayings.
On Saturday night the COMPANY
will close their engagement here
giving away six rocking chairs OF
this occasion.
We haye examined these chair
and find that they are well wortl
winning-anY one of them.
Saturday afternoon there will b
a matinee for the ladies an,

Gov. Jones had quite hard case
in hand in Nevada county to deal
With, and he has been extricated ii
an agreeable manner to himself and
perhaps all of Nevada county.
Judge John B, Moore, the county
Judge elected at the last election,
has been removed by death from his
Office and Immediately afterwards
a half dozen gentlemen (all personal
friends of the governor) made ap
plication for the vacancy. While
the governor was pondering over
which one to appoint, a delegation
visited him from Nevada county and
said that it was the sense of the
people that they hold a primary
election to determine who should be
appointed to fill the vacancy, ano
they came to ask the governor if ht
would give the appointment to the
one so selected. The governor said
be would gladly do so.

POLITICAL IMMUNITY.

The facts have become scattered
abroad concerning proposal re-
Gently made to the editors OF the
two most influential California pa
pers, in which they we're offered
the privilege of naming the caudi-
date for United States senator from
that state provided that they were
friendly to the railroad interests
This proposal was made by rail
ro;.d attorney to two editors uu-
known until later to each other,
and guaranteed the election Of
such candidate named, under the
provisions. The editors indivldu-
ally refused to be parties to any
such deal, and later conferred to-
gether and decided to expose the
whole deal, which they have done
by making affidavit to statements
contained above.
The next case came from West
Virginia, which in the recent elec-
tion, elected a democratic majority
of three by Joint ballot in the legis'
lature. The state officials are al
republicans, and the ballots are il
the hands of the secretary of state
1t is proposed by the republican
bosses for some of the defeated re
publican candidates to contest the
election and try to get places OF
the roster. The secretary vii
place the names of these contest
ing candidates on the list to sta.
until their cases are decided, b
which time the legislature wi
have been organized, and the tru
majority of these will avail tn
democrats nothing. This plan
said to have disconnected the dem
ocrats greatly and they are at los
as to how to proceed.
These two cases have no excus
for existing. If our country come
to the pass that all its legislator
can be elected by the magnateS
and by gross Misrepresentation G
power, the Star Spangled Banne
will have lost its significance an
we had better change the rhym

Among those VINO are reported as
having expressed opinions concern
ing the presidents message we note
that Senator Jones of Arkansas oc-
cupies a prominent position. Ac-
cording to a Washington CORE
spondent, he found in the message
a number of points which did not
accord with his views. One of these
was the proposition to continue the
volunteer army in existence until
the standing army can be increased,
"Some of us do not favor the in
crease of the standing army" he
said, "and the president has no
right to assume that a majority
stand with him on that PROPOSE
tion." The Arkansas senator also
questions the presidents right to
hold the volunteers in service be-
yond the time of signing the peace
treaty, saying on this point: There
is no war in existence aud none is
imminent. The law requires one or
the other condition, and the threat
of the president to hold the volun-
teers in the service until the stand
ing army is increased, beyond what
the conscieDces of senators dictate,
looks to me like menace and an
effort to dictate, which | consieer
an outrage and unpardonable. -

erty which its equivalent in cash
will buy. Land is a thing which is
always worth what it costs. In-
stead of ever depreciating in value,
It increases as the population in

creased. The day is not far distant
when this country, like England,
will be cut up into little farms from
ten to fifty acres each. Then in

The berries of the yew have killed
many persons, and it is pretty well
known nowadays that it is not safe
to eat many peach pits or cherry
kernels at once. Among the gar
den plants commonly in vogue
which possess poisonous nature
botanists mention the jonquil, white
hyacinth, and snowdrop, the mar
cissus being also particularly dead
ly-so much so, indeed, that to
chew a small scrap of one of the
bulbs may result fatally, while the
leaves are an emetic. There is
enough opium in red peoples to do
mischief, and the autumn crOcus,
if the blossoms are chewed, causes
illness. The lobelias are all danger

Lilies of the valley are also poison

oleander are deadly, and the bark

not in flower, resembles celery, and
