has held up the election. Last even

Michael Deyine received s; George

voted for Willis, as that vote, if
given to Devine would have elected
him. After the meeting was over,
the ballot could not be found. Mr..

understand Cannon has nothing

PoIiteness in Mexico.

Gentlemen in Mexico do some things
which would look queer here. For
instance, they tip hats when they see
each other; they shake hands whenev
er they meet and par they do not
consider it bad form to stand in line
on the sidewalk and stare at the la
lies; they wear their hats in the theat-
er until the Curain rises and more
over, put them on lctwcen acts and
stend up to look at the audience, and
ifter a separation thy embrace and
pat each other on the back, if they hap
Zen to be intimate cnds. They new
CT chew tobacco. but smoke every
vi ere. even in some theaters. They
Iever carry bundles ou tho street, but
each is attended by Il srvant, who car
ries even the smallest :.ckage. They
are wonderfully courteous to eachother
and two friends will spend great
deal of time in deciding which shall
enter a room or carriage first. Finally
everW Mexican gentleman, when stroll
ing down the street. insists on giving
the inside of the walk to his compan-
ion as mark of politeness. This point
is quickly decided if there is a differ
ence in station or age. but if there is
not, and the two. friends go down a
street and cross often, so that the .rela-.
tive positions are changed, new dis
cussions as to which shall occupy the
inside becomes necessary at every cor

The coming of Hoyt's "a Texas
Steer" to the Barre Opera House,
Saturday night, is unquestionably one
of the most interesting events Of the
theatrical season. Hoyt stands at the
head Of the humorous satirists of the
day, and "a Texas Steer" is his reco-
gnized masterpiece. His caustic pen
has in this effort been couched against
the morality, or the lack of it, as
found In that hot bed OF intrigue and
shattered pledges, the national capt. |
at Washington. MI. Hoyt fairly re-
veals In the splendid opportunities
satire and character portrayal thus
presented, and the result is a comedy
full Of personal interest from start to
finish. While the humor is spontan-
eous, it never descends to vulgar
horse play. and not for an instant
detracts from the possession, a strong
heart interest.
