BOSTON PRODUCE MARKET.
From Wednesdays Boston Journal


There is no improvement in the butter sit
uation. Supplies are liberal, trade continues
light and receivers are anxious to sell in
order to prevent accumulatons. The West
ern markets have all declined, and although
the make there Is not apparently increasing
as fast as in New England, sellers see the
necessity of putting prices where the butter
can be distributed rather than hold 1t above
the parity of Eastern points. The cold.
damp weather has depressing influence on
trade and the general feeling is that a bet.

OF few sales at over 90 cents in a wholesale

No change can be reported in the egg mar
ket, except that the demand IS not quite

GRAND OPERA HOUSE

Charles III. Hoyt's success as a
humorous writer was due to his abil-
ity to see the ludicrous side of com
monplace things with which every
body is familiar and present it effect
lively in skit or farce. All his stage
efforts have had a familiar subject,
which with its humorous side turned
out has formed the basis for his
story. A skit on popular supersti-
tons is the foundation on which he
created the funny story of his best
farce, "a Brass Monkey" The re-
vival made this season, with scenery,
mechanical effects and costumes con-
structed after the models of the orig
inal production, will be the attrac-
ton at the Grand Opera House ali

ADJUSTMENTS

1t is seldom that so dainty and
exquisite a picture of home life is
presented as in ''The County Fair, y
which with Neil Burgess himself as
Abilgain Prue, will open an engage
ment of three nights at the Seattle
Theater Sunday evening. Having
seen it, one ceases to wonder at the
extraordinary success it has met with
everywhere for the last ten years. 1t
is a most delightful and pleasing
drama, containing a story with alter
nate chapters Of pathos and humor,
and the gem is set in a manner
worthy of its value. So evenly is the
story told from beginning to end
that at the fall of the last curtain
one is at a loss to decide which of
the many characters is the most
pleasing. Neil Burgess, as Abigail
Prue, is typical down East spinster,
a good housewife and an inveterate
chatterbox, but a true and faithful
friend, with the kindest heart in the
world. To be unfortunate enough
to miss seeing this play is like de-
priving oue's self Of most educat-
ing evenings pleasure.
