THEATRICAL NOTES.

The Frank Daniels Comic Opera COM
pany is coming to town to present for the
first time here, Victor Herbert's great
comic opera success The Ameer" which
was last season pronounced the greatest
or MS many successes. The company with
FRANK Daniels at the head. will be here
tomorrow night, and the engagement will
afford the only opportunity for the ad-
mlrers of Frank Daniels to see him in
this city this season. The Ameer" is
by odds the'best comic opera Daniels has
ever had. This term applies not to any
one part or the opera alone. but to every
part Victor Herbert says that the music
he composed for 'The Ameer" surpassas
anything else he has ever done. THE
score faily sparkles with melodies and
the choral numbers are ringing" is the
way one critic describes it.

A marriage license was issued late
Saturday evening by the clerk of the
district court and thereby hangs a tale.
The principals We're James NJ. Savage
and Marie Heath both of Billings. Be-
tween the hours of II and II o'clock
Sunday night justice of the peace Kelly
was aroused by a loud rapping on the
door to his room and voice asking,
Say udge, can you perform a wedding
ceremony The judge answered that
he could but the parties must present
themselves at his office inside of half
an hour. The time rolled around and
brought to the judges office a man and
woman, accompanied by about half a
dozen gentlemen friends When the
couple stood up before justice Kelly to
have the knot tied the woman said, Il
refuse to marry this man." The judge
asked her if she was likely to marry the
man at any future time, to which she
replied that she did not think so. This
ended it and the party left the judges
office.

Some person performed a loWliVed act
the other night which meant a loss of
about 800 to l. l.. Whitney. Last sum-
mer Mr.. Whitney had a pair of fine
Belgian hares sent to him by an uncle
in California. AS these animals multi
ply rapidly, it was but a few months
until he had thirteen fine hares. He
had pleasant home made for them and
they We're thriving. Saturday night
about II o'clock Mr.. Whitney was
aroused by neighbor who said that
something was wrong with the animals,
as they had been very noisy for an hour
or so. Mr.. Whitney Immediately arose
and went out to investigate finding that
two dogs We're in the cage and had al
ready killed twelve of the hares. The
dogs We're killed at once The next
morning on going out to the cage it was
found that one of the dogs had been
carried away. The home of the hares
was q strong one of woven Wire, covered
over the top in a like manner, With a
door which was securely fastened each
night. When Mr.. Whitney went out to
investigate and found the dogs therein.
he also discovered that the door was
fastened, which clearly showed that the
dogs did not get into the cage of their
own accord, but We're placed there.
Then the removal of one of the dead
dogs during the night, so as not raise
suspicion all the more goes to prove
that some person was the instgator OF
the diabolical act. One of the dogs was
Il yellow eur and the other black. There
is a proba biiity that the owners of the
dogs will be discovered when Mr.. Whit
ney hopes to make some one pay dearly.

to recognize the fact of sin, and leading
them to a better life. He was for some
time connected with the famous Arson
