"The Man from Mexico"

''The Man from Mexico" which Walter E. Per.
kins and his comedy company will present at the
Lyceum tomorrow night, promises to be one Of
the most enjoyable evenings OF fun and laughter
ever provoked by stage performance. In fact,
this comedy enjoys the reputation OF having made
more laugh within the past two seasons than any
other dozen comedies combined
1t has become, unfortunately, common for man
ayers to cheaper and cut down expenses when
productions transferred from the larger cities
to the general tour, but Mr. Perkins claims the
distinction of keeping "The Man from Mexico"
right up to the high standard of excellence fixed
in its original production in New York city. 1t
will he presented here by high class company
OF comedians and will have the aid of special
scenery and appointments.

NEA RLY COMPLETED.
The Census Steets Must be Turned in
Today.

The recount of the city will be COM
pleted today. The First, Fourth.
and Sixth wards have been finished
and the enumerators are finishing up
their work in the other three. The
sheets for the Second ward were turn
ed in yesterday, but the enumeration
discovered a family of eight today
that had not been counted. They were,
located on Oak street, across the Great
Western track, and were supposed to,
be in the First ward. The recount is.
likely to bring the city's population
nearer 10, 600 than 10, 500, according to
the prediction of those who have been
watching it closely. 1t is believed
that when the facts become public it
will be shown that all the way from
60 to 140 new names in each ward have
been added to the rolls by the recount.
1t is thought that good many people
will still be overlooked.

when near the postoffice it became un-
manageable W. G. Bradley attempted
to hold the horses, but was able to do
so only long enough for the young
ladies to jump and even then the car
riage was crowded against the post
office. Miss Evans suffered bruise
on one of her arms, and several spokes

1t is fortunate that no other injury
was done.
