A Very Large

and appreciative audience composed
of some of the most prominent cit
liens of Caro-. witnessed the per-
formance of Jacks jolly Jokers in
"a Night Out with Us"
AT the Opera House last evening, Mon
day, Feb. 9TH, and by permission the
manager has authority to refer the cit
liens of Vassar to the editors of the
Caro- papers and the following named
citizens who can testify to the superb
GRITTY of the acting of the players.
This performance surpassed their eX-
pectations, and patrons of a theatre are
safe in taking any members of their
family, The audience were convulsed
with laughter in every act and the
specialties were first class in every par
ticular. Jacks jolly Jokers is the best
Comedy and Vaudeville show we ever
had in Caro-, and is well worth the
price of admission.

A contemporary says: "When Speak

a critic OF the Millionaire congress, by
saving that this is a Millionaire coun-
try, he stated fact that has been
growing in size ever since. The re-
mark might well be made now that this
is a two billion dollar country. The

1899 was S2074, $40, 242, while the total
money circulation on February ] was

religionists throughout Ireland. For some
considerable time after the outbreak was
discovered the lives of seven or eight per-
sons were in imminent danger, but the
splendid heroism of the fire brigade and

course of the sorrowing priests and peo-
pie of the ancient diocese over which he
reigned so worthily and we'll for upwards
of thirteen years. The deceased prelate
was held in high esteem and reverence,
not merely by his own flock but by all
the other religious denominations, as was
abundantly testified by the manifestations
of mourning observable on every side.
Bishop Owens, of Clogher, was the cele-
brant of the solemn requiem mass, as
sisted by Bishops Hoare of Ardagh, Henry
of Down aud Conner, Gsffney of Meath,
and about 100 clergymen, During the
progress of the funeral cortege through
the streets the shops and business estab-
lishments we're suffered and the blinds
drawn in private houses.
The return of the Most Rev. DIR. Kelly,
Bishop of Ross, after the pilgrimage to
Rome, was signalized by a great and
popular demonstration of the people of
the diocese in Skibbereen. His lordship
arrived by the evening train from Cork
and was met at the station by represent
alive body of the clergymen of the do
cese and townspeople. On alighting his
lordship was conducted to a brougham,
presented as gift by the parishioners,
and accompanied by an immense con-
course headed by the local brass band
and torch-bearers. move was made to
the Cathedral, where an address of
welcome was presented on behalf of the
clergy Of the diocese, which was accom-
panied by check for 6l5O. and also an
address from the parishioners. His lord
ship suitably replied to both addresses.
and announced his intention Of devoting
the sum mentioned toward the erection
in the Cathedral Of three stained glass
windows in memory of the late Bishop
Fitzgerald.
