TRAPPING A PROFESSOR.

4 MUSEMENTS.

Manager Mulvey has made a wise
and profitable move in bringing the
Wilbur-kirwin company in from the
suburbs to the stage Of the New Grand
theater. While the coo1ness of the
weather and the damp atmosphere that
surrounds the salt palace late in the
season would have warranted it, there
are many other advantages in the
change No longer must the singers
scream, no longer is there the cOmmo-
ton OF shutting feet and portable rows
OF chairs being showed along a plank
floor and no longer is the audience
under the painful necessity of craninS
TO get view Of the stage. The Grani
affords more seating accommodations
greater cOnveniences for the mechan-
ism of the shOw-resulting in better
performance and you get it for the
same price.
The organization quite outdid itself
last evening. 1t must have been the
verdict OF its patrons, who shifted with
the company from the palace that the
programme far surpassed any previous
vaudeville bill. The enthusiasm was
genuine and unrestrained. In the min
strel first part there are solos by Mr..
Abbott and Mr.. Huff MY Rainbow

fine light effects, and another negro
spasm. Amt Dat a Shame" by the ir-

some funny gags. which, taken with

The most noticeable feature of the

and chorus. Why it has been held
back so long is a mystery. Huff makes
handsome tOreadOr and he sings the
number with dash and vim. Miss Kir-

tremely clever Carmen. It is to be

The richest girl in Texas, Miss Clara

Among her friends it is an open secret
that her chief motive Is an ambition TO

The IneligibIe's Revenge.
(Smart Set.)


Once there were some very wager
people in an ultra village not far from
the metropolis who decided that no So
ciety yet punched together was exclusive
enough for them. Even the Colonial
Danes failed to meet the requirements.
So they determined to start a new ag
gregatfon that should be the real thing.
After considerable thought they con-
Cluded that IL they limited membership
to direct descendants of Fernando de
Soto it would be sufficiently exclusive for
their fastidious tastes. "A Society OF the
Sons and Daughters of De Soto was the
outcome All the best people in the vii
lage proved that they were eligible and
We're enrolled as charter members.
However. there was one man on the
outer fringe whose proof of descent was
not accepted; in short, he was black
balIed. This made him angry. and he
started to investigate the subject.
One day he published his findings in the
local newspaper The principal fact was
this: Fl. de Soto died a bachelor"
The Sons and Daughters of De Soto are
now known as the Elite Euchre club.
Moral-There's a whole lot in a name.
