We're several persons in the outer office

envelope and pressing a button, sum-
moned an office boy, to whom he gave
the letter with instructions to mail.
After he had done this he picked up
the three cards which his secretary had
left on his desk. Two of the names
were unknown to him, but the third
seemed to puzzle him. 1t was 4 neatly
engraved card on which was written:

He leaned back in his chair for
moment, apparently in deep thought.
Can it be the same?" he reasoned
with himself. . He put the card in his
pocket, and mentioned to his secretary
to show in the gentlemen in the order
in which they came.

business. and the door had hardly

A Nice Wedding.

Sunday afternoon, in the Carlton
House parlors, Douglas J. Nice and
Miss Linda Parker were united in
marriage by Rev. H. l.. Badger, a few
friends witnessing the ceremony. The
groom the same day assumed the
management of the Carlton, but this
was no new experience for him as he
has for several years past been active
ly engaged in experimenting the bust
ness of the hotel, under both Mr..
Gimblet and Mr.. Thompson. The
bride, too. is no stranger to the Carl
ton management, and an assumption
of the authority of landlady is but full
filling duties that have often been per.
formed by her for others. Mr.. and
Mrs. Nice may be congratulated upon
entering, at the threshold of their
welded life, business that has been
placed upon firm foundation by sew
eral of the best caterers on the coast.
All they will have to do will be to
maintain it at its past and present
high standing, and we feel quite sure
that this will be an easy task by the
couple who have been taught by ex-
ample and who enter upon the task
with the highest incentive for mutual
endeavor, the founding of home, and
cheered by the plaudits of host of
friends.

THE NATIONAL CONCERT co.
Is Drawing Crowded Houses Wherever Il Ha,

The National Concert Company, I'M
der the management Of Albert Meyer,
will appear at Olympia Theater, on
Monday evening, the 9th inst, and
our musical people will have an oppor.
tunity to hear one of the best selected
concert companies ever appearing in
this part OF the country.
The soprano of the company, Mrs.
Jennie Houghton-Edmunds, has a
splendid, powerful and pleasing voice :;
she is great favorite wherever she
has appeared. Mrs. w. II. Whittlc-
sey's contralto is fine melodious one,
and the lady has it under thorough
control, showing excellent training.
Mr.. George A. Edmunds is the posses.
sor OF a magnificent tenor, and he
knows how to use it; he reaches the
highest notes without an effort and
the number OF encores he receives at
every performance shows that his fine
voice Is thoroughly appreciated. The
bass, Mr.. Vernon Van Buskirk, has a
powerful voice, and never fails to
please his audience.

SOFTNESS OF SEALSKlN.
Is Rivaled by Human Hair Where Dandruff i.
Eradicated,

Sealskin is admired the world over
for its softness and glossiness and yet
the human hair is equally as soft and
glossy when healthy; and the radical
cause OF all hair trouble is dandruif,
which is caused by pestiferous para
site that saps the vitality OF the hair
at its root. Newbro's Herpicide is the
only preparation that is fatal to the
dandrutf germ. Without dandruff no
falling hair, but a luxuriant growth Of
glossy, soft hair is certain. Securing
the scalp won't cure dandruff. Kill
the dandruff germ. Thousands of
women owe their beautiful suits Of
hair TO Newbro's Herpicide.

OF an equally exorbitant character, all
OF which were allowed by a majority
vote of the board.
To show the transitory nature of
popular favor, however, we note the
fact that the board which was elected
to build the hall was just as unani.
mously defeated for having done SO, at
the next election! The board adopted
however, before it surrendered its pre-
negatives as lawmakers, by a unani-
nous vote, a resolution according in
perpetulty meeting rooms and quar-
tiers for their apparatus, to the fire
companies. 1t ought to be matter
OF record, and If it is not is simply ow-
ing to neglect of duty by the Clerk in
not placing the resolution on the min
utes or in the book of ordinances.
The name Columbia hall, originated
from the name on the hand fire. en-
CINE. which was bought from a COM
pany in New York town, which had
had their name elegantly emblazoned
in solid brass letters on the brake-arch
which spanned the ornamented air.
chamber OF the pump. AS the name
was appropriate, from local conditions,
the newly organized company assumed
it and by vote of the Council the new
hall was formally named "Columbia."
One result of the new building was
the impetus it gave to the project for
holding an agricultural and horticult-
ural lair the succeeding year. Nature
likewise favored, and the products that
year were so grand that a proposition

the entire exhibit was sent on its mis-

strings to money-bags. 1t made a
splendid display in the Office windows
OF the leading clearinghouse, and pro-
badly produced confidence in the sta

thing than had yet been done. So it
may be that the building of Column
bia hall was turning-point in finan-
clering the great enterprise which has
done so much to annihilate distance
between the East and the West.

This gifted young lady has just re-
turned from the Conservatory of Music
In Paris, where she studied. The
playing is revelation; it shows what

the keyboard OF a piano; her touch is
exquisite, her lingering marvellous,

SUPPORT, THE WAR POLICY.
London Meeting Great Success From

London Meeting Great Success From
The "Jingo" Point Of View.
London, July 11.--At the Guild hall
a meeting was held in support of the
governments war policy. It was a
great success from the lingo" paint
OF view. The idea originated on the
Stock Exchange and was introduced
as an offset to the recent pro-Boer
gathering at Queens hall. The lord
mayor, Frank Green, and the other
city magnates did their utmost to as
sure its success and the result was the
great hall of the Guild hall, having a
capacity of 1000 persons, did not suf-
tice to contain the crowd, which neces-
Stated an overflow meeting outside,
demonstration of even more pro-
nounced character than that of the
stock brokers. Patriotic songs broke
out at intervals, both within and with
out the building.
The British generals were cheered
and the names Of Henry Labouchere
and other Boer sympathizers were
Kissed and hooted. The Stock Ex-
change was practically deserted for
the meeting, the stock brokers march
ing in procession to the Guild hall,
waving flags and singing Soldiers of
the King"
The lord mayor presided, surround
ed by Conservative members of the
house of commons, bankers and 9TH
ers.
A resolution expressing complete
confidence in the South African pol
icy OF the government and protesting
against the attacks of the opposition,
which were characterized as unpatri-
otlc, was adopted in the midst of wild
scenes of enthusiasm.
