Not the Managers Fault.

There seems TO be misunder-
standing IN regard to two COM
panies having the opera house en-
gagged for last night, but Managers
Simpler d. Cromley are not in the
least responsible for this occur
renee.
Yesterday morning the "a Trip
to Chinatown people wired Mr..
Simpler from Pueblo that, owing
to sickness, they would be unable
to perform here last night and
asked that the engagement be can
celled. Mr. Simpler then rented
the house to the Fame Farrell Stock
company. But the former compa-
ny had changed its mind and
came in on No. | and found the
conditions as above described. But
in the meantime Mr.. Simpler had
gone to Pueblo to demand an ex-
planation, and upon arriving there
it was disclosed to him that the
chinatown people had left for
Florence. These are the entangle-
ments that confronted the manag-
ers, and under the circumstances
they gave the "a Trip to China
town" company the right of way.

salt. On one of the vessels ut the har-
Dor there is young son of Erin who
acts as cook, etc. The crew is not
large, and evidently of frugal turn
of mind, and in consequence the cooks
duties never varied since his arrival
Il month ago from the work of clean
ing and cutting herring TAT least so
the story goes. The skipper when up
town decided ON change, and pur-
chased quantity of sausages. These
he handed over to the cook to pre-
pare, and the crew waited with inn
patience on the dinner. At last 1t was
ready, and the boy proud of his
efforts, served up the dainties. The
captain looked for the sausages, but
the pan contained only mass of
skins! The boys following his usual
custom, had treated them the same
as herrings,- Glasgow Evening Times.

ries as to the cause OF this remark

due to the tides. Another says the tur-
