The list Of candidates for the common
council i'm Ward continues to grow
Some folks seem TO have forgotten that
there can only be four men elected
Among the new candidates for the coun-
ell is named John W. Flanagan Of
Douglas avenue. There is an idea I'm the
ward that IL a transfer club was formed
in the ward the list of candidates would
be well primed In fact that new list
of nominees might be presented to the
people. The aldermanic fight grows
more interesting every day.

new EMPIRE THEATRE.

That very popular three-act plentitude
of fun "why Smith Left Home" is the
attraction at the Empire Theatre the
present week. Last evening large audi
ence was delighted with the production.
"why Smith Left Home" was told at
another theatre last season and II proved
an interesting story. The company that
is producing the piece at the Empire is
one worthy of generous patronage.A more
pleasant way to spend an evening could
not be imagined.
The fun is constant and OF a kind that
strikes every one quickly. 1t is clear, crisp
and interesting.
Douglas Flint gives almost an ideal
impersonation OF the John Smith, who
loves his wife and lives I'm New York. He
Is cool and constant and most cleverly
does he turn from embarrassing situa-
tions. The part Is one that calls for clever
work and MIR. Flint does the work in a
way that brings out all the fun and
cleverness possible. Eugene Redding
makes a very amusing General Billedoux,
one OF the old guard, who is very much
afraid OF his wife
Gus Mortimer is first class as German
count. He has the language mixup habit
well learned. His work last night called
for lots OF applause. Frederick Roberts
and Frank Craven were very acceptable
in the parts of Major Duncombe and
Robert Walton.
Miss Rose Hubbard was charming In
appearance and action. Her acting OF the
part of Mrs. Smith left nothing 10 be de-
sired. Nellie Markell takes the part OF the
aunt who causes trouble.
Lizzie May Timer is the Lavina Daily,
the secretary OF the Cooks union. Miss
Timer makes this very amusing charac-
ter constantly funny. Elenor La Sale
is fully equal TO the emergencies OF a
touchingly clever maid.
why Smith Left Home" will be given
for the rest OF the week at this theatre.

entitled, Mr.. Flotz, the Floorwalker -
IL afforded Rowe an opportunity for one
or two songs of recent birth, and some
high kicking and acrobatic stunts on the
part of Ferguson were worthy of the
recognition they received.
Louise Darcy sang three ballads that
were OF verdant freshness. She did not
attempt TO pierce the roof with her voice
and sang very sweetly. The finale of the
last song, i'm which she is driven from
the stage after making a rush for a fell
low In one of the boxes, who sang Just
One Girl" was extremely fetching.
Hosmer and Olivette. with illustra ted
songs, caught the house handlly. The
Herbert Brothers performed acrobatic
feats that place them I'm the front rank.

A Remarkable Discovery.

4 remarkable discovery hag beer made by pr. Peters, who has recently been exeavating at Nippur, an ancient city of Babylonia. While the Workmer. were clearing away the debris from the walls Of the temple Bel they dis covered in a hole which had been clos. ed up with sundried bricks a large goose egg on a mat of reeds. Why the egg was placed there is mystery, as it has no connection with any known BabyIonian custom. Dr. Pet CTS thinks that it may be looked upon as a joke on the part of one or more of the ahcient Workmen, the object of which will probably never be known. The temple was built at a very re- mote time. probably in the reign of Akus-gal (B. c 22o0), or even earlier. SO that the egg is over 4,000 years old.
