The Latest Novelty.

What is perhaps the latest and really only
genuine novelty OF the season is offered by the
management Of the Academy next week in .hc
Little Irene Myers company. Little Irene the
youthful aspirant for stellar honors although
hardly past ten years of age, is pronounced to
be, beyond doubt, the most talented child either
upon the American or European stage Her pro.
fessional career began at the age Of three and a
half years. when she made her debut at Keth's
theater, Philadelphia, appearing in conjunction
with her father in Characterization of Charles
X. Harris famous song, "There'l Come a Time"
quite unlike the average stage child her work
does not appear automatic, but is natural and
unaffected betraying a talent far in excess Of
her years
Versatility is another admirable Characteristic
of her work. she is able TO sing with equal
effect the most pathetic ballad the most rol.
licking negro ditty Her supporting company
this season is much larger and better than ever,
both in the dramatic and speciality line Special
scenery and light effects are supplied for every
play, and particular attention is given to the
detail of all productions. "The Silver King"
will be given Monday matinee and night.

NEW STOCK YARDS.
Moore's Wharf Go. Adding Another
 Great Improvement.

Work was begun yesterday on fine system of stock wards at Moore's wharf for the accommodation of live stock con ' signed to interior points, The site of the yards is immediately to the south of the fine new corrugated iron warehouse for bonded goods just erected.
 While the stock yards will be largely an accommodation to the railroad company, the wharf company is erecting the new building.
 The new stock yards will be oox4o feet, and so arranged that cattle can be driven direct into them from ships, and then driven out the other side direct into cars, thus simplifying the transfer
 A feature of the new yards will be drinking troughs supplied with city water. Men were at work yesterday arranging pipes to run out to the wards.
 The old stock wards at the north end of the wharf, will be retained for the accom- modstion of stock for local consignees.

KNIGHTS OF THE KEY
Smart Telegraph Operators Connect
 cd With the Railroad.

The White Pass railroad has notable number of telegraphers among its various emploves of rank in Skagwav. It might be termed a telegraphie administration. Beside the men engaged to do exclusive telegraphie work there are eight or nine other competent operators who have held positions at the key in various parts of the world
 Superintendent Rogers is man able to read what is passing over the wires when he Is near the sounder, and if necessary he can take a trick himself. He can also lean back and begin narrative something like this: "When was chief dispatcher on the Montana division of the Great North ern-"
 Al Wallack, who holds the reins over the destinies of the trains of the most northerlv road In the western hemisphere, or in other words Is chief dispatcher of the White Pass road, draws hls "reminiscences chiefly from the Columbia & Puget Sound road running out of Seattle, where he pres viously presided. and can spin countless J r ilroad stories of other roads. When he cannot do all the entertaining in thIs way he can turn the matter over to Night Dispatcher C. K, Kunsch, Opera tor Swading, on the Skagwav end of the Dawson wire, is also on the list, of course.
 Others of the local men who can make themselves handy at the "key" are Freight Agent Wurzbacher, Assistant Freight Agent Sower1y, Assistant Auditor King; Agent Barker, at the shop; James Wallace, bill clerk at the wharf; Jean Murphy, chief clerk in the office of the superintend- ent, and Travelling Auditor Frank Morti- mer.

LONG, LOVELY DAYS.
Changing Characteristics of Skag-
 ways Famous Peaks.

IL is broad daylight in Skagway now until late after 9 o'clock in the evening, and day breaks at o'clock or earlier in the morning. A noticeable phenomenon last evening was that while there was vet almost as much light as in the middle of the day, star that stood above the face of the ever attractive Skagway Sphinx shone as brightly as though it were peer ing on an earth wrapped in the folds of deepest darkness.
 Another pretty sight of the day was the glistening of the kindly rays of the efful- gent sun on the melting snows of Garter mountain and it's magnificent neighbor, Mt. Fairbanks, just to the north, opposite Moore's wharf
 Mount Foster and Dewey looked serene ly grand and ohaste as they reared their rugged heads in shadoWed area.
 Dewey peak has habit of taking on a crimson blush each morning just as the sun rises, and Mt. Shoup occasionally is to be seen arraved in fleecy clouds of purple and gold sWathed about its head.
