BEST OF THE SEASON.
The "Burgomaster Draws a Large
Audience at Sutton's Theater.

Better attractions than 1.-The Burgo-
MASTER may have been brought to Butte

more royal welcome than the play pre-
scented at Sutton's new theater last even
ing.
The company is an excellent one, and
contains no end of pretty girls and grace
fu men. The music. too. is tasty and
catchy. especially such airs as 1.-THE Tale
OF a Kangaroo" Keep Cool" Dear Old
College Days" etc The performance
was a revelation to the audience, and
applause was hearty and frequent
Herbert CawthOrne as the burgo-
master. was excruciatingly funny. and
kept the audience in continual laughter
He was ably assisted by Edward J. Sand
ford, George II. Broderick. Harry De
Lorme. Andrew ]. Lyman, Misses Edith
Warrington. Ida Hawley, Lillian Austin,
Sadie Stockton, Madeline Winthrope and
others.
! All in all "rhe Burgomaster' is a
pleasing entertainment full of good
things of all kinds, and deserves crowded
houses during it's entire engagement.

MEETING GOES OVER
BUSINESS MEN ADJOURN UNTIL
AFTER THE HOLIDAYS.
RAILROAD MATTER POSTPONED
Discussion About Consolidation to
Come Up Later-Mining Congress
Subscriptions Are to Be
Continued.

- There will be no meeting of the Bust
ness Mems association this evening, and
no more meetings of the organization will
be held until after the holidays.
- The discussion of the move against
allowing the railroads to consolidate was
to have been a special order for the
meeting tonight and further reports
were expected on the Mining congress
fund, but Saturday it was decided to
postpone the meeting until after the holi-
days.
The men Who are interested in the
matters which are coming up before the
association are going to be very busy
now until after the holidays" said Il
member of the association this morning.
Going to Be Busy.
ION that account it was thought best
to postpone the meeting. The stores will
be open later from this time on, and be-
cause of that it would be difficult to get
a very large attendance at any meeting
OF the association that might he held"
The business men have at least ac-
complished one important thing" said
another member of the association.
'They made the coming of the mining
congress an assured thing before they
adjourned for the holidays
Will Be Kept UP.
''There is no doubt but that the work
of taking subscriptions for the congress
will be kept up, and that all the money
needed for the meeting of the body here
next year will be forthcoming soon after
! the meetings of the association are re-
summed after the holidays.
The main thing was to get the money
that would allow the business men to
keep their pledge that was made when
the congress was asked to meet here
next year. That amount of money has
been pledged, and we can adjourn for
the holidays with good grace"

back into the earth"
This hole had been enlarged by some
animal and now formed, as l afterwards
found out, the winter retreat of bear.
Boylike, began to investigate the place,
thinking that perhaps a rabbit had run
In there, and that by little work I
might get him out. l had never killed
rabbit and was, of course, all the more
eager on this account.

Pleasing Play at the Family.

''The Jefferson Farm" as presented at

rious characters were well sustained, and
nearly every actor and actress made a
decided hit. The company will be here
all the week.

BLOOD

We live by our blood, anc
on it. We thrive or starve, as
our blood is rich or poor.
There is nothing else to live
on or by,
When strength is full and
spirits high, we are being re.
freshed, bone muscle and brain,
in body and mind, with con.
tinual flow of rich blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
is not rest and sleep is not
sleep, we are starved our blood
is poor; there is little nutri-
ment in it.
Back Of the blood, is food,
to keep the blood rich. When
it fails, take SCOTS emulsion
Of cod-liver oil. 1t sets the
whole body going again-mar
woman and child.
Wen send you a little to Try, II you Ike.
