covered 1t was under control.
Later the two-Story dwelling OF

The chicago stock Company.

The Chicago Stock company
opened a weeks engagement last
night at the Auditorium, with a
Naturalization of Hal Game
famous novel, "The Bondman.''
A crowded house literally applaud
ed the work on the Stage, and II
was evident that the Chicago Stock
company found its way to the
hearts to the theater-goers of the
city at Its initial performance. The
company Is above the average of
repertoire companies. While the
heavier parts were excellent, the
entire company was good, matter
not so often encountered In com.
panies of that character. The work
of Mr.. Brown and the Dorentes
was especially clever, and they
were well supported through all the
difficult and trying scenes of this
stirring play. The specialties were
fine, especially the last one, the
troupe of trained dogs. So well
had they been trained that they
seemed possessed of an intelligence
above the brute creation. They
were the best ever seen In the city.
The company will play each
night and Christmas matinee, and
should receive a liberal patronage
through the entire week.

/ Constable Ed Sutton, of Salem,
yesterday placed John Heavener, a
a middle-aged resident of that town
In jail at Clarksburg. He Is accused
Of harboring goods stolen during
the FIRE there. On a search war
rant found about $500 worth of
clothing In his residence. His ar :
rest and incarceration followed. J.
A. Shapiro, a clothier at Salem,
alter a careful examination of the
clothing, identified 1t as a part of
his stock. Many other thefts
were committed, and there will be
a diligent effort to run all the
thieves down. Efforts to ascertain
the origin of the fire have failed
thus far. Many stories are afoat,
but they seem wild. One is that a
big hole was discovered next NOR
ming under the vault of the
Salem Bank, and that an attempt
was planned to rob 1t during the
FIRE. A noticeable fact was that
there were more strange people In
Salem the evening before the fire
than was ever known before.

An Honest Ton of Coal.
From the Boston Advertiser.

A bill has been introduced into the legis-
lature to insure that hereafter when a man
pays for ton Of coal he shall get 1t. The
bill was defeated in the last session. but It
was supported by some pretty strong tes-
timony. showing the shortcomings OF coal
dealers in various cities. The bill provides
that hereafter, when a customer is sus-
picious regarding his coal dealer, he may
have any load weighed on request by the
sealer Of weights and measures. With every
load of coal sold ticket must be sent out
by the coal dealer. and If the sealer finds
that the ticket and the actual weight do not
agree the dealer Is to be subject to legal
penalty. II the government Is to go into
the business Of protecting consumers against
short weight and short measure, as 1t seems
to have done, such bill il reasonable, pro-
vided the public is not put to too much ex-
pense.
