Chase's Theater.

Phroso will no doubt be the target next
week for as many inquisltive eyes and
minds as can be crowded into Chase's Thea
ter. Despite the fact that the attaches of
the theater are required to be kept as COM
pletely in ignorance Of the facts as the pub
lie Is, every purchaser Of a seat this week
has been unable to refrain from the usual
inquiry, What is Phroso? Is it a man?
Is it doll? Is it aiive?' and so on ad in
finitum until Treasurer Herbert has become
almost comatose. The appeal to curiosity
by vaudeville attraction now. as always,
ts one that is bound to be successful even
as 1t was in the days of Barnum's wooly
horse Phroso- is one of the most ingenious
creations for amusement purposes produced
in the past decade and press reports from
the cities where the exhibition has been
made justifies the statement that the at
traction is worth all the attention drawn to
1t. Whether it be man or mechanism. 1t Is
a remarkable performance to go through.
Phroso's manager claims that the figure IS
an automaton and the examination OF
Phroso by the audience as he Is passed
through the aisles of the theater is part of
the performance. The second feature OF
the forthcoming program is Tom Eck's mo-
tor cycle sensation. 1t Is nothing more nor
less than a motor-paced cycle race inside
one Of those 20 degrees steep and thirty feet
in diameter upright tracks. The act Is
given by the famous rider and manager Tom

Miss Lottie Brandon. actually the champion
lady bicyclist Of the world, noted as having
executed the Loop the Loop" upon a BIZ
cycle. If any one has ever seen motor
paced race with It's attendant excitement
and danger on a Coliseum track he will find
that the forthcoming exhibition is far more
hazardous and exciting from the cyclists
point Of view. The third feature will be
contributed by Joseph Maxwell and his
company Of four actors and singers in

The official report of the part tax

battle of Buena Vista and Monterey
during the Mexican war, in the
handwriting of Col. Jefferson Da-
Wis, who commanded the First Mis-
sissippi regiment on both those
memorable occasions, as well as the
reports of Col. Davis officers, were
found a few days ago by the di-
rector among the States archives.
Few more interesting historical doc
uments have been unearthed.
Col. Davis thus describes the v
shaped formation which contribut-
ed so largely to the fate of that
day:
''The Mississippi regiment was
filed to the right and fronted in
line across the plain. The Indiana
regiment was formed on the bank
of the ravine, in advance of our
right flank, by which a re-entering
angle was presented to the enemy.
Whilst this preparation was being
made, Sergeant-Major Miller of our
regiment was sent to Captain Sher-
man for one or more pieces of artil-
lery from his battery.
