A Little Outcast.

Although a larger crowd than was
expected attended the play. A Little
Outcast. at the Park Opera house last
night. the play did not cDme up to
the expectations of the audience.
The company was not nearly so
strong as the one that handled the
piece in this city last season.
There were only two acts of the
company that could be called good.
At times their acting was excellent
and at others it was very poor. They
were Paul Weston. "who suffered for
the sins by Others and the Little
Outcast. - The part of Paul Weston
was played by Stanley Johns and that
of The Little Outcast. bv May Stock
ton. The only other parts worth men
tioning were those of Madeline Har-
court. afterward Weston's wife. and
played by Millicent Evans and Little
Harvv. weston's child, by Master Bob
Young.
The only actually good piece of act
ing was done by Weston, in his de-
spair when he wished to commit sui
eide at the Dock at the Battery and
was saved by the Little Outcast.
There was hardly enough of the
''Bowcry" in the talk and actions of
the ''tough" characters and newsbovs
who took part in the play.
A very good piece of acting was
done bv the Outcast in the second act
at the Chinese restaurant, when he
begged Weston not to drink and also
when he saved his life when the ruff
ans attempted to rob Harcourt's house
and lay the blame ON Weston. The
little child Harry, did exceptionally
we'll. the house always being breath
lessly quiet when he spoke his lines,
Too MANY of the company simply re-
cited their lines without expression or
good acting.

Do You Know 1t.

and that is, there is quite number of
grades of tinware? The cheapest
tinware that is made is where they
throw it out by machinery like grain
out Of the hopper, sometimes it may
be soldered and sometimes it may
not, sometime it may last a little
while and sometime it may not, some
time you can milk bucket of milk in
them and it is liable to collapse be-
fore you get to the house with it, but
you get your moneys worth even
though it is not good. Now we have
this cheap tinware and then we have
a better grade of tinware that we
make by hand in our shop that we
warrant to wear just as long as the
granite iron ware. Talking of granite
ware, do you know that it is made in
a number of different grades, but
some of it is so thin and cheap that
it don't amount to more than the tin.
The medium grade is perhaps the
best that sells now. We sell the best
to. We keep all three grades and
can satisfy you in any of them as we
keep great variety OF every KIND.

easily located by strangers. They have a large stable of the very best stock. their horses being selected and trained to the travel necessary in a mountainous district. These are especially adapted to long distances and to sure footing under the saddle, and capable of much endurance.
 In addition to their complement of saddle horses, there is no kind of 8 vehicle you may desire but what you may obtain in the Palace stables, from a single-seated buggy for two to a vehicle that will accommodate twelve persons. They also have wagons suited to mining parties with their out fits. Competent pilots. who are fla miIiar with every district and road, are furnished when desired. It is a special pleasure to speak of the reli- ability of Bowen & Henderson. What ever they say to their customers may be absolutely depended upon. When you need a saddle horse or team of any kind, just try the Palace.

THE PALACE STABLES.

Although Bisbee has a railroad. and
 a good one, too, there nevertheless is a constant demand for horses and ve- hicles in this neck of the woods. So widely scattered a district, all teeming with claims, mines and development of these renders it necessary for the miner, the seeker for investments and the mine owner himself to travel to and forth between Bisbee and these places of investment and interest. It is well to know just where to go to obtain the very best accommodations. None can be more conscientiously recommended that the Palace livery stables, of which Messrs. Bowen & Henderson are the proprietors. Their stables are To- cated in Tombstone canyon, just a step of two above the food gate a landmark well known to all here and

His friends say that he never turns a deaf ear to an appeal in a worthy cause and cite in particular his benefactions to the Salvation Ar my and the Sisters of Charity. In support of the contention that he is exceptionally big hearted they point to his efforts, in his capacity as chair man of the national civic federation to promote harmony between labor and capital But even concerning this there is a great diversity of opin- ion, his political enemies asserting that the senator is playing for the labor vote" that he cannot possibly be sincere, since it was only few years ago. they declare, that he was the Ohio miners bitterest and most active enemy and that in the eyes of
 the trades unionists he was long typical Tabor crusher-" To this his
 friends make reply that the charges
 are gross congregations and that. even
 if they were true. there is no reason
 why he should not have experienced a
 change of heart. It is certain, they add. that the senator is resolved to spend a great part of the declining years of his life in ameliorating the condition of the working man.

 "The finest gambling house there was that of Gentry & Crittenden. Many a day I have seen Ham. Baker handle $S0,00o in gold there between early evening and early morning.

There were two cashiers at the back of the dealer, and I have seen half bushel of twenty-dollar gold pieces on the cashiers desk lots of times.

oA Short Range Study of - .I-
 Senator eNarcus oA. Hanna.

Some one has not inaptiy described i Senator Marcus Alonzo Hanna as a ! political comet whose appearance is CO., i incident with a presidential campaign. 1 The senator is always in the public l eye to large extent, but it Is un- 'doubtedly true that he is chiefly the | observed Of all observers" at the l time when the nation goes president making. Just at present Senator Hanna is more than ever under dis cussion, owing to the fact that in cer- tain quarters he is being seriously dis cussed as a presidential possibility. The senator himself seems to be in- clined to ridicule the idea, but his friends say that his occupancy of the chair of the chief executive would be but the logical outcome of unique and remarkable career having its be- ginning in an humble clerkship in Cleveland grocery store.
 Hard work has been the keynote of Senator Hanna's success in life. Even while boy in his native town of Lis bon. Ohio. he was noted as a worker sturdy. earnest and indefatigable. When he grew to manhood and found himself behind the counter in Cleve- land the habits he had acquired as boy stood him in good stead and 1t has been said of him that he learned the coal and iron business while weigh ing out sugar and butter. It has also been said that he was one of the first sa irfnTD of bringing coal and iron ore together, and with this in mind it is easy to un- ders.and why he became interested h lake shipping Here was perhaps the first striking instance of the business foresight-it might almost be called in stinct-which has marked the sena- tors whole career as merchant king and which did not fail him when he embarked in politics.
 He comes of race noted for both hard work and foresight-the Scotch Irish. The blend is visible in every line of his face: his square jaw, de termined mouth, broad forehead, low bri1ged nose with large nostrils- themselves an indication of strengtf of character-aDd eyes that light ul on the slightest provocation. Hi head is firmly poised on his thicl neck and muscular shoulders; hi' frame is sturdily built. Every ste he takes betokens self reliance an
 consciousness of power. He is thol oughgoing in hatreds and friendships When he frowns he frowns thorougf
 N. and when he smiles his smile likewise thorough.
 Such a man could not go throug
 life without making many enemies
 and many friends. He has been d'
