"A Runaway. Girl" the famous Eng
lish musical comedy success, with
some so people in the cast headed by
the clever little comedian. Arthur Dunn,
in the leading comedy role, will be seen
for the first time in this city next Mon
day evening in the Opera House. This
play has been the most successful Of
the many musical productions that
were brought over from England by
the late Augustin DAILY. Certainly
nothing but good reports have reached
us Of this production. It's music is
credited with being remarkably
catchy and its comedy bright and
clean. When first produced in Eng
land at the Gaiety it enjoyed a pros
porous career Of seven hundred nights.
When presented at Daly's Theatre in
New York City. it ran for over three
hundred nights without a break.

Writing n Book.

The following confession of novel;
list as to the method in which he wrote
one of his books is not without inter-
est. He had had the story outlined in
his notebook for long time and ought
to have been able to write it, but did
pened to think Of it again and saw, al
most as if it had been a stage scene,
the little tableau with which the book
was to close-one of those ends which
are also a beginning. So he began to
work and in a short time had complet-
ed the first three chapters. Then, for
no reason that he can give, there was a
jump, and he wrote the chapters which
are now numbered XXI and XXI, the
last in the book. Then he went back
and wrote straight on from " to XVII.
The story had been with him so long
that it was the easiest thing in the
world to write it, and so he got through
this part of the work with remarkable
celebrity. In the eighteenth chapter
nothing happens. Every day for a
fortnight he rose, breakfasted and tried
to write that chapter; every night he
tore up a big pile of manuscript which
he knew to H. hopelessly bad. Then
he got desperate. The chapter should
be written and should stand, whether
good or bad. He wrote it and left the
house because it was bad and he had
resolved not to tear it up. Next day
he wrote chapter NIX, and on the NOR
row he rewrote chapter XVIII and
somehow or other contrived to get into
it all that he had failed to get before.
Then he wrote chapter XX, and the
book was mpleted.-London Post.

Twenty-fflh Anniversary.

The reception given at the home of Mr..
and Mrs. !. A. Nolan to celebrate their
25th anniversary was a very enjoya-
BILE occasion. Pleasant greetings were
passed and CHEEKY conversation filled the
rooms. Several gifts OF friendship were
presented, all elegant and useful, besides
a purse Of $3.50. The bride and groom
OF 25 years had with them on this occa-
sion the officiating clergyman Of 25years
ago, Rev. d. c. Ferris of Barnet, who
spoke pleasant words BETTING the occa-
sion. Rev. F. A. Collins, pastor of the
happy couple, wove the story of the low
ers in rhyme and presented the gifts,
Mr.. McLam responding in his usual
happy manner. Some very fine solos
were sung by Mrs. Lillian Thompson.
Great credit is due to Mr.. and Mrs. c. F.
Smith for the evenings entertainment
Coffee and cake were served, and, with
wishes of many years added to the
already 25 of welded life, the guests
departed.

Bathing In Salt Lake.

"Salt lake is a remarkable sheet Of
water in many ways, and bathing in it
possesses features which are unique"
says Utah man. ut is very invigor-
ating and refreshing, to be sure, but it
takes some time to become accustomed
to the extraordinary buoyancy of the
water. 1t is quite impossible to sink
or to drown in the lake, but many peo-
pie have been killed by the water
When there is a breeze and spray is
dashed upon bathers, the water is so
densely impregnated with salt that the
liquid portion evaporates very quickly
and leaves a deposit Of salt on the skin.
"On several occasions people have
drifted out while bathing or been
wrecked and thrown overheard and aft
erward found dead on top of the water,
choked to death by the accumulation of
salt in their mouths and nostrils."

"UncIe Toms Cabin" and the South.
Possibly the most general conception
Of the old life at the south held by the
rest of the country is that drawn from
"Uncle Toms Cabin" a work which,
whatever it's truth in detail-and there
was doubtless much truth-yet by rea-
son of its omissions and it's grouping
contained even more untruth as a cor
rect picture of a civilization, says
Thomas Nelson Page in The Atlantic.
AS an argument against the evils in
herent in slavery it was unanswsrable;
as a presentation Of the life it under
took to mirror it was rather a piece of
emotional fiction, infused with the spir-
1t of an able and sincere but only par
TALLY informed partisan, than correct
reflection. 1t served a purpose far be-
yOnd the dream and possibly even the
intention of its author. 1t did much to
hasten the overthrow of slavery. 1t
did no less to stain the reputation Of
the south and obscure what was
worthy and fine in its life. From that
time the people of the south were re-
garded, outside it's own border, much
as, shall we say, China is regarded to-
day-as one of the effete peoples as an
obstacle in the path Of advance and
possibly among many as an object CT
righteous spoil.

Obeyed Orders.

An old Yorkshire farmer was walk
ing out one day looking very glum and
miserable. He was a typical York
shireman, and he dearly loved joke.
But jokes seemed a long way off just
then, and the old man was thinking
deeply when he was accosted by a
tramp, who made the usual request for
a nights lodgings and something to
eat, as he explained he had had moth
ing for two whole days The effect
upon the farmer when he said this was
magical.
"Why, man." he said, give been look
ing for you all day"
And then without more ado he
knocked him down and walked on him
from one end to the other. The tramp
got up, looking very staggered, and
asked him why he had done that.

dered me to walk on an empty stomach,
and now that l have fulfilled his in

and you can come with me."-Londor
