Diven has lived in the city less than two years, but he was already highly esteemed for his active Christianity, admired for his scholar ship and eloquence.

Three attorneys are engaged in the prosecution, State At torney Williams, Assistant State At torney Wheeler and Assistant City At torney Webb These gentlemen took turns at reading articles which they claimed sustained the charge as to the character of the paper.

A rousing big audience went wild over the show at Polls last night, es- pecially when McAvoy and May in their Crazy Conglomerations" were driving the people into stitches of laughter. This ludicrously funny sketch is roar ing hit. The audience was just as highly amused by the quieter comedy of Why Walker Reformed" as played by Milton and Dollie Nobles.

The Grand.


 At the performance of Hello Bill'' at the Grand last night the arrange ment of the specialties was slightly diff ferent from that of the initial produc- tion and the change added greatly to an already pleasing performance. Noth- ing daintier or more prettily costumed Pthan the trio song and dance of John Hyams, Madeline Lack and Ada Der nard has been seen here in long time. New songs were also introduced by Louise Royce, Ada Deaves and the male quartette. The performances this afternoon and evening will close the engagement of Hello Bill'' at the Grand.
 Hypnotism is employed in the new melodrama, "A Man of Mystery" which is to be presented at the Grand Opera house the last three days this week, with matinee Saturday. A burglar is trying to open a safe at midnight. The owner comes in and catches the thief, who straightway places the owner in this hypnotic state of somnambulism and compels him to open the safe for the convenience of the burglar. The situation is an extraordinary one, and the dramatic power of the incident can be conceived at once. This is only one of the happenings in "A Man of Mys- tery" that has held the audience spell bound wherever 1t has been presented. The play is full of novel and powerful dramatic incidents and is given by a strong company. Seats now on sale. Regular prices.
 Grand Annex-Joseph and Louis Coons, better known as the Midget Coon Brothers, do three styles of dane ing, clog, Irish reel and the old genuine negro buck and wing, for which they receive loud and prolonged applause at every performance. A fine specimen of Indian bead work in the shape of a shoulder bag used by Indians to car ry their provisions in when on the hunt. has been added to George E. Bartlett's collection. Matinee to-day at 1:30; evening performance at 7:30. Doors open fifteen minutes earlier.
