kept in an uproad of laguhter until the
fall OF the final curtain in the last act.
Clever specialties and novelty acts are
introduced throughout the perform
ance. The singing is of a high grade,
the choruses are catchy and bright and
everything goes with dash and vim
that is highly entertaining. An eff
Gent cast has been engaged and repre-
sent quite an unusual degree of talent.
Special scenery is carried by the man
agement for the entire production.
The theatre going people of Wheel
ing have in store for them a treat
which will be very shortly realized,
for Tim Murphy, one of the most gem
uine and delightful of Americas legit-
innate comedians. will appear at the
Opera House on next Saturday night
and matinee in his American success
The Carpetbagger," a play, ~ the
merit of which the American treatre-
eoOiuS puDliS Ndll luAly lSSlliy, LII ~
has been seen and approved in every
large city in the United States and
Canada. Murphy stands in a conspic-
uous position in the galaxy of Amer
lean stars, and has won a reputation
which any of them might justly envy.
His characterization of Maverick
Brander, in Hoyt's "A Texas Steer"
stamped him then as one of the com
ing ones" Now he has come, or, as
the French put, he has arrived, and
using "Old Innocence" as a stepping
stone two years ago, he has brought
forth one of the most striking comedy
conceptions of the day and has created
the part of Melville GRANGE, in THE
Carpetbagger, the product Of the bril-
liant minds of Opie Read and Frank S.
Pixley.

A SMALL POx FAKE.
A Scare which Was Caused By Improper
DIAGNOSIS

A Scare Which Was Caused By Improper
Diagnosis
A telegram was received in GOOdland
Tuesday from Roswell, Col, stating
that J. r. Morris, a Rock Island en-
gineer, was on board passenger train
No. 10, which arrives here at eight p.
m, and was coming down with the
small pOx. Acting Health Officer Shell
ley was notified and q carriage was
sent to the depot to take the supposed
infected man to his home. In the mean
time his family had been notified and
instructed to vaCate their home as il
would be used as a pest house They
we're considerably alarmed and went to
the home of a friend. Somehow the
reception committee at the train missed
their patient" and thinking he was
trying to Outwit them, drove at once to
his home to receive the afflicted man
there. When Mr.. Morris arrived at
home be found his family absent and
the health officer there ready to quar-
antine him. 1t was then found that
the small pOX was all a fake, original
ing from the fact that Mr.. Morris had
been suffering from a bad cold and Is
sometimes troubled with eczema, some
of his railroad friends taking advan-
tage Of these facts to perpetrate a
practical joke at his expense. Mr..
Morris says that y. p. MatlOck dag
nOsed his case while r. F. COOts is
probably responsible for the telegram.
