Grand Opera House, Pittsburg.

The Grand Opera House, Pittsburg, is
this week running one of the biggest
productions ever attempted in the
country. The play is David Balascos g
'Men and Women" and it is having the
best production that was ever given it.
The stock company is playing the piece
splendidly, and the large houses that
greet it are evidence that the production
is highly appreciated.
Next week the versatile stock company
will change from heavy society drama
to farce comedy, presenting that most
laughable of farces, ''All the Comforts
of Home" This is Gillette play, the
funniest that William Gillette ever
wrote. 1t is funny from start to finish
perfect rush of laughter.

FELINE STRATEGY,
A Cat That Had the Spirit of a Ma

pOleOn.
From the Grand Rapids Herald
1t was not his size or his beauty which
made him remarkable, though his possess
sion of these attributes of feline superiority
easily made him prominent among the cats
of the neighborhood with whom he waged
unrelenting warfare. but the fact is that he
possessed controlling mind and strategic
ability that would have made him great
commander had he been born in more
exalted sphere Of life. For this cat, with
true diplomacy, made friends with the dogs
of his particular domain and went forth to
battle attended by a bodyguard whose ap-
pearance inspired respect and assisted him
in his combats. An English mastiff, a bird
dog and small cocker spaniel shared his
meals, and later enabled him to gain VIC
tories over his hated rival, the gray cat
across the street.
This cat had many contest with that
gray cat, but the combat always resulted
in draw because of the guerrilla tactics of
his wary opponent, who preferred short
fight and a rapid dash to safety to a pro-
longed conflict where the superior weight
and fighting ability of the cat with the con-
trolling mind would have decided advan-
tage.
The thought that victory. undisputed. had
never yet perched upon his banners Vexed
the soul of the diplomatic feline and embit-
tered his milk and beefsteak with the
NORWOOD of vengeance long delayed. But
at last diplomacy triumphed and retribu-
ton overlook the gray prowler and dis
turber Of midnight slumber.
One day in a fatal hour the gray cat in
vaded the precincts of the feline Bismarck
when the allies of the latter were at hand.
When he struck a sudden blow and ran, a
smile of joy parted the whiskers of the cat
with the controlling mind, and with him
the three dogs Joined the chase.
Because of their superior numbers the
dogs easily caught and brought to bay the
gray cat and then formed a ring about him
while the avenger entered the arena and
began the battle. Continually driven back
into the ring by the three dogs, the gray
cat was unable to pursue his favorite tao
tics, and the result, after one of the pref
test "cat scraps that that ward had ever
seen, was complete victory for the cat with
the diplomatic inclinations. Only when the
gray cat, by a flying leap over the heads
Of the dogs. escaped did he let up in the
work of righteous retribution. Then, in the
consciousness of victory. the conqueror re-
turned, accompanied by his allies, to his re-
past of milk and beefsteak, lord of his own
domain. And the surrounding neighborhood
as far as three blocks owned his undisputed
sway.

Naming the Prince of waies.

About eco years ago there was king of England-Edward I.-who subdued the people of Wales. After conquer ing the Welsh. he was anxious to get their good will, and so. when 1t hap pened that his first baby prince was born in Carnarvon. in Wales, he had
 bright idea. He announced that his boy was a native of Wholesome who could speak Welsh just as we'll as any other tongue (this was true, as the baby was but few weeks old). and he should therefore be the peoples own prince. Edward. prince of Wales. says Forward. Twenty-three years after this baby became king of England. and about 90 years later his grandson had assigned to him. as the third prince of Wales. the crest and motto which has been borne by all the English kings sons who have since that day had the title. The crest is three ostrich feath- CTS. and the motto is the sentence. "Ich dien"-"I serve" It was given to the Back Prince, a boy of great promise. who fought bravely at the battle of Crecy -- 4r s

The Royal Duke 1t ch.r.h.

The most original character we meet in the Memoir of Princess Mary" is her father, Duke AdoIphus Of Cam bridge. He was 8 strong churchman. but "his religion sometimes took rath+ CT an unconventional form" On one occasion, after the officiating clergy man had repeated the usual exhorta- tion, "Let us pray" the duke was heard to reply: By all means" During a very dry summer the vicar read the prayer for rain; at the close the duke joined fervently in the "amen." adding, in exactly the same tone of voice: But we shan't get it until the wind changes" On Sunday, when the words: Behold, the half of my goods give to the poor" were read, he astonished his fellow worshipers by rejoining: No. no, can't do that; half is too much for any man, but I have no objection to a tenth" Again, on hearing the text: For we brought nothing into this world, neither may we carry anything out" he ejaculated: "True, true-too many calls upon us for that."-London News.
