Manager Guck bad number of good
shows booked for last season. Several
of them were shows that play only the
better towns. His bookings as a whole
we're commendable. From some cause
every one Of the good shows Cancelled
their dates and the ones that dropped
along and filled in the dates were almost
without exception of a very poor grade.
There is a chance for big improvement
this year and it is to be hoped that the
owner and manager of the opera house
here will make a radical change. 1t
would certainly be to his interest. Good
shows will pay better in Dodge City than
poor ones, Rotten performances will
never make a good show town of any
place. II the people understand once
when show is billed here that it Is a
good show the house will be filled. Mr..
Gluck claims that bis policy is to get the
best shows possible and 1t is to be hoped
that be will succeed better the coming
season than he did the past. Dodge City
Is tired of rotten shows.

@. The.ast night Of the wirter opening avSha gymnasium clubcwas held last fght and proved 3 grand success from cgeIy viewpoint. The ente; tainment afforded those who attended was of ne highest order. and every number was received with much applause.
 .Dr. Frederick acted as master oi cei emonies. and in a few we'll chosen words begged the toleration of the audience for any shortcomings that might result from the short time that he classes have been under the direc- tc;ship of MT. Hurst.
 The juvenile class. in delsarte rovenecls and more strenuous feats, made q decided hit with the audience, and the evident glee with which the ycungste entered into their work was pleasing to all The work of the O. Hu:sts methods of physical cul. irre are thorough and beyond criti- z: -n;, ana the ease with which he com- mands the boys must have been most assuring 10 their parents, many O. %hom were assembled.
 The me1's class showed up remark ably well in acrobatic fea;s on the par lllel ba.s. horizontal bar and horse.
 The basket ball game was most ex- citing. the eds winning the first hall by the score or to 3.
 Immediately following the first half of the game Mir. Hurst and William Grenfell engaged in a, wrestling bout which capitlvated the audieEce. The bout was replete with scientific work It ended in a oraw, neither man St cur ing fall. Grenfell starled out on the aggressive, and for a moment 1t looked as if his superior strength must %il for him the coveted fall. but the agility Of Hurst pulled him ou. of the only close call Of tho bouth. and he soon took the aggressive al the first opportunity. G enfe,l seemed the stronger of the two. but the lighter man "cleverly pulled through several crises by his trickyness Catch-as. catch-can was the style at which The pair w estlei. and at --e close of the exhibition they were greeted with a round of applause that was deafening.
 After the second half of the basket ball game, the floor was cleared away for dancing, in which the greater part Of those who attended took part. The music was excellent. and il was not until midnight that the gathering dis reIsed, each voting his strongest ap probation of the quality of the enter tainment. N-"-- '

malicious way as he delivered it Hay ing finished with him. we mounted our cayuse and galloped into Lone Jack. we hoped to find and surprise Broth CT Watkins and his boil. and we were not disappointed. He sat in his sane tum with look of complacency on nis face as he thought of us waiting at Johnson's Ford for him. We entered his presence nuannounced. and ;iS we stood before him that look of compla- cency faded away into one of terror. He turned white as flour. and his jaw dropped and his eyes rolled. The man he had so often characterized As vii lain. liar. cheat, swindler. robber. bun ko steerer and hundred other thln2s stood before him. He couldn't make it out, but sat and stared and stared. and the Adams apple in his throat moved up and down as if trying to find way out.
 We remarked that we presumed we had the honor or addressing Jim Wat kins. coworker in the field of litera- ture. but he only gurgled in reply
 We observed that. we had hoped to have the honor of meeting him a. Johnson's Ford two hours earlier and had been considerably disappointed at his nonappearance. and he closed his eyes and groaned.
 We made inquiry as to how hc was getting along in a financial way and whether the circulation of the Record CT had yet included the south sea is lands. but he didn't encourage us 10 pursue that particular vein of humor
 It being a hot day. we expressed suspicion that Brother Watkins had been working his brain too much nnd was on the point of d collapse. and something like a faint smile chased it. self across his face. : The foreman of the office, who ap- peared to be Q very intelligent and fair minded man. entered the sanctum<aftc- awhile and expressed the hope that ws wouldn't do any more shooting before he had received the x14 back saiary due him. We ascertained from him that Brother Watkins was a good husband and fond father and that his favorite drink was lemonade with a blackberry floating around iu # r1cre.ftp- '-'i formed us that Brother w.ehssltset ou: to becomp a new hunorist in the west srn field and that all he had said about - in the last two years was, the way ,ss . joke.

 After an hour of rather solid enjoy. ment ne took Brother W. by the nose and lifted him up. and then we took hil by the ear and led him outdoors.
 tiis wife and two childsen had ap- peared upon the scene, but they took our word for 1t that we didn't intend to deprive them of husband and father. We. .promenaded Brother W. the length of Kyote avenue and return. and we must do him the justice to say that he tried to keep step with us and that he never once sought to release his eur from our grasp. He had little or notb- ing to say during the promenade. but seemed to do u great deal of thinking
 His fellow townsmen naturally ex- pressed considerable curiosity and in tercst in the affair, and we gratified them by giving them the particulars of the duel which didn't come of. Re- marks of a redhot nature were address ed to Brother w. on all sides. but it wasn't his day for talking The prome- made was concluded and his ear re- leased after three-quarters of an hOur and we left him at the office and in the bosom of his family as we rode away. He made no response to our goodby, but at tbe same time seemed to be highly relieved to see us cnnter away.
 We have nothing against Brother Watkins. and we wish him success in the editorial field. In a fatherly way, however, we would suggest that he cease to monkey with the buzz saw. In case he fails to do so we might re peat the performance of the other day and go no further, but on the other hand we might think it best to make a vacancy at the head of his editorial staff and convince his widow and or phans that we had only done our duty fin the case.

 Two weeks ago. determined to make us take notice of him. he devoted one full page to rs and we must admit that it was rather raey reading. The picture he published over our name was that of an Ohio murderer. and in the so called history he gave of us we counted up 240 lies. 1S4 islanders and 21S libe!s + we had had business at Lone Jack l::-: week we should have visited the Recorder office and taken Brother Wat ,:ins by the nose and led him slowly Ip and down the main street of his own, but we had matters to see to at ,one and paid no attention to his at lick. This probably encouraged him to believe that we were afraid to move in the case and that his chance had come to make strike.
 Notwithstanding that we were the insulted party. he sent us a challenge to fight d duel. and we understand that he made a bet of S10 that we would refuse to accept the honor. He had our answer within ten minutes after his challenge had been received. The day was set for "Wednesday last. and the place was at Johnson's Ford. We were on the spot with our second ten min utes before the hour named. and after We had been kept waiting a full-hour a messenger brought word from Brother Watkins that as he had q boil On his leg the affair must be postponed for TWO weeks
