uneasiness and serious loss to the lum-

this winter and the cut will be reduc
beside the danger of slack water spring
drives unless heavy snow and freezing

is the more serious because of the en-

lumber on hand at mills and yards II
is certain to be a considerable advance
in price of all better grades of lumber
for this reason.

Modiesxa in eLady Macbeth.

In most revivals of the tragedy of
Macbeth" in which Madame Mod
jeska will make her farewell appear
ance here at the Opera House on Fri
day night, a persistent effort has been
made to give it the significance of a
profound or mysterious study. More
has been written about the possible
purposes of Shakespeare in writing
this play than about any other of his
works with the single exception of
Hamlet" with its problem Of sanity
versus insanity The Wagenhals &
Kemper company, which has been en-
gagged to support the great Polish act
ress this season, is one of the strongest
that has ever accompanied a Shakes
pearean star. 1t Is headed by the well
known stars, R. D. MacLean and Miss
Odette Tyler, who have had wide ex
perience and won large following in
both the classic and modern drama.
Mr.. MacLean has been assigned to the
part of Macbeth, and his impersonatiun
is said to be most excellent one. The
production given the play is said to
be most adequate one. So far as pos
sible all the features Of the original
version are retained, both in the stag
ing and in the acting, and much of the
traditional music has been restored.

Cases Into This City.

By the Local Board of Health Against
the Introduction of Small Pox
Cases Into This City.
Smallpox, as already noted in the
papers, prevails extensively both in
Ohio and in parts of this State not
many miles from this city. Our hos
pitfalls are liable any day, unless they
exercise extreme care, to receive in
cipient cases of this disease. and If
smallpox develops after arrival in the
city, the city is expected to care for
them, which entails an average ex-
pense of about $3.50.
In view OF this state Of affairs the
Board of Health, of the city. has pass
ed the following resolution OF instruc-
ton to the Health Officer:
Resolved, That the Health Officer is
hereby instructed not to remove to the
municipal smallpox hospital from
any other hospital in the city, any
smallpox patient until he shall have
received from the responsible head Of
such institution bond in the sum OF
two hundred dollars, 10 secure the pay
ment to the city of all expenses in
CURED in the board. nursing. medical
treatment and in case of death. the
burial of such patient.
mis- is a notice to other communi-
ties that they will be expected to care
for their own smallpox cases: and to
our hospitals that if they are careless
in taking in cases Of contagious dis
ease. they will be expected to pay the
bills or keep the patients.

John w. Isham's 0ctoroons will be

appear in the most novel and interest
ing entertainment ever before at
tempted. Originality will predominant
from beginning to end. Mr.. Isham
has been lavish in expenditure On
scenery and costumes, everything be-
ing new, rich and striking. The
company embraces the very spice of
high class colored artists, each Sc
lected for special excellence in their
own particular line. The scenic por-
ton of the enterprise is elaborate. and
the costuming and ensembles all that
could be desired. The programme Is
a varied one, opening with an original
sketch which is bound to please the
most caustic critic. The olio is an ex-
ceedingly strong one, and the remain
der of the entertainment concludes in
thirty minutes around the opera, with
a chorus of forty voices. One IS
amazed at the work these singers do,
even in comparison with white vocal
lists To many it is a revelation.
Don't miss the Octoroons' perform
ance. 1t represents an epoch in the
advancement of an already musically
famous race.
