The Peruchl-BeIdini Company.

The Peruchi- Beldini Com pany
an organization which has rep
utation all over the South for it's
excellence and which has never
visited this city before, opened a
weeks engagement at the opera
house Monday night. The COM
pany sustains it's reputation. 1t
is one of the strongest and best
repertoire organizations which
has ever played here. The play
on Monday night was Love and
Loyalty, a drama founded on
Cuba's struggle for freedom and
it afforded splendid opportuni-
ties for strong situations and
climaxes and telling lines and the
company handled all well. The
scenery was feature giving the
play an tmOsphere of reality
while the costuming was appro-
pirate and correct. The local
orchestra augmented by mem
bers of Drego's band from Mo
bile furnished music.
To individ ualize each member
of the com pany would reward,
where reward is due It's true,
but this would extend beyond
the scope of this article. Miss
West as "Carlotta, and Will j.
Erwin as Mort" carried off the
honors of the evening, especially
the latter whose work caused
the audience to long to see him
in a better role. Miss West is
good actress, equal to the strong
role she essayed on Monday
night. A really strong and eff
fective bit of character work was
contributed by Miss Helen War
rem as "Perditta," who captured
the house with her acting. The
specialties were good and the
house was more than pleased.
The company duplicated its sue
cess>Of Monday night last night
in The New World" and will
continue it's engagement through
out the week giving a matinee on

roy" for the benefit of the chill

Chancery Court Proceedings.

There has been little Of i'm
portance transacted in Chancery
Court this week. The case OF
Crump VS.. Moore was taken up
Monday ana continued through
yesterday. The work has been
slow up-to- date and it will take
some time to get through with
the docket as it now stands.
Chancellor McCool has render
ed no decision in the Bank case
as yet This case involves tech
nicalities that require delibera-
ton. Another case that has at
tracted some interest is that OF
Whitfield vs. the present holders
of the Whitfield estate. This
will probably be taken up in a
few days.

A Serious Collision.

There was a collision between
passenger trains Al and ~ near
Hyannis last Saturday morning,
that caused delay of the east
bound train of several hours.
Both - and A arrived here to-
gether about 3 o'clock in the af-
ternoon. One man, said to be
bum, was quite badly hurt. He
was brought here and placed in
the Broken Bow hospital in
charge of DR.. Mullins. The
man is III a critical condition and
it is question whether he will
be able to get over it. One of
his limbs was crushed below the
knee, which made anputation
necessary.

severely criticising the secretary
of state because of the purchase
of Legislative supplies without
authority, and the including of
carpets, furniture, and number
of other items not ordered or used
by the Legislature. The bills in
the hands of the committee show
many overcharges and other dis

A number of new bills have
been introduced calling for
amendments to the constitution,
and it is possible that some of
them may pass, and give the
people another chance to vote
upon them, Heretofore the
trouble in elections has been that
more than one-half of the voters
neglected to vote on the amend
ments, and they have always
failed to carry. A move will nc
doubt be made to have the pro-
positions placed at the head OF
the ballots instead of at the
bottom, as an experiment to see
if the voters will not take more
interest.

The revenue bill has been re-
ported to the House by the stand
ing committee with a number OF
amendments, the most important
of which is the change in the
time of the assessment from the
1st of February back to the pre-
sent date. There is some dis
position, however, to compromise
on March 1st. The bill has been
printed and placed in general
circulation, and an agreement
has been reached to hold night
sessions in the House until it is
disposed of. In the meantime
the same bill has been introduced
in the senate, and will be held in
allegiance pending action in the
House.

Lincoln, Neb., March o, 1902.
The appropriation bills have at
last come into the House, aud
will be the subject of discussion
in committee of the whole inn
mediately after the disposal of
the revenue bill. AS usual the
amounts asked for in the APP
preparation bill are very large,
and will be trimmed down some
what by the House. The dis
position towards liberality will
be more pronounced if adequate
provision is made for raising the
money to pay the bills.

the bills, and full investigation
is to be made. In taking hold of
the matter in a fearless manner
the Legislature is showing a
strong contrast to the fusionists
when they were i'll power and
when they condoned rather than
criticised the illegal or dishonest
acts of their officials. 1t is quite
probable that this session will
pass a law which will prevent eX-
travagancc and population OF
public funds in this manner in
the near future.
