for the day from the little town out on the

Under the rules the despatch had to be
addressed and sent direct 10 the press cen
sOr, Capt. T. Green, who, after he had
passed upon il and struck out matter that
he regarded as Objectionable, sent il over
TO the cable station. There the -corre-

strike out anything from the message that

hurried out 10 another part OF the hit &

cable office that the messages which came
in from the first correspondent should be
sent just as they were 70 the paper IN
New York.
The first correspondent, thinking his
cOlaborer was 10 edit his message in the
cable oifice, had, after writing his mes
sage, put on che following postscript;
For heavens sake, send me new pair
of khaki trousers. Some soldier stole mine

Occasionally the public is invited to
attend performance in the nature Of
rare treat, and such may be said to
be the case on next Thursday and Fri
day, May 31st and June 1st, at the
Wheeling Park Casino, at the Elks'
benefit, when the popular comedian,
Willie Collier, is announced to appear
here. The engagement should attract
the attention of every theatre-goe in
this city, for of late years this come
dian has thoroughly established him
self as one of the foremost lights of the
histrionic armament Unctuous to a
remarkable degree and possessed Of
that rare magnetism that incites spon-
taneous laughter without effort, Mr..
Collier has again and again demonstra-
ted that as a comedian he ranks with
tne best, and his remarkable success
last season in The Man From Mex
ico' was the sensation of the year
This year he appears in a new light
as full-fiedged author The play in
which he will appear here is entitled
Mr.. Smooth" and was written by
himself. 1t is funnier than any of his
former presentations and has created
a sensation in Chicago, New York and
other cities where it has recently been
produced. The company is an excellent
one, and the production will be one
of the most elaborate that has ever
been seen in this city. Seats on sale
at ]. w Grubb's jewelry store.
Notwithstanding the big advance
sale of seats there is still number of
choice ones left. The reserved seats
include admission 10 the Park with
out extra charge. Special cars will be
run at the close of both performances
in connection with Elm Grove line to
all parts Of the city and surrounding
towns.

Again the solemn day has come,
When throbs the music of the drum
In memory of the brave
Again the wood and garden bowers
Yield up their lavish wealth of flowers
To deck each soldiers grave.

And hear the children softly come,
Bringing the summer bloom
The fairest tributes of the May,
All woven into garlands gay,
To make more fair the tomb.
