much to the wonderment of the Amer
ican-born citizens who lined the route of

that America was ever discovered prior
to the day Of Pierpont Morgan :.--.
Some $50 members of the society were
in the parade, which disbanded at the

followed by a program of speeches by
Francesca Gannelli and Martina Melmo,
and by another speech on "Columbus''
in English by 13-year-old Lilly Bindo. At
the close of the afternoon a banquet was
served in the lodge rooms s-.
The officers of the society are; Fran

turnout the country. When they have
thoroly embraced Christian life and are
fit to go into Christian homes, places are
provided for them. Altho the work of
saving these unfortunates is going on at
a gratifying rate, we are not able to meet

WATSON'S BURLESQUERS
They Present Fairly Strong OIio and
Rather Dull BurIesque

Watson's American Burlesquers, at the
Dewey theater this week: present a fairly
strong olio and two rather dull burlesque
sketches. The opening burlesque, Gen
eral Levy's Social is enlivened only by
some clever comedy work by Billy B.
Watson. The costumes are not above the
average, and the music is mediocre, with
the exception of two or three numbers.
The olio opens with a clever musical
novelty turn by Paul and Arthur Bell.
Henrietta Washburn and Rena Washburn,
in a song and dance turn, were we'll re-
ceived, altho they win favor rather by
their pleasing personalities than by any
musical or terpsichorean ability. George
Meeker George Baker and Johnny Bell
do some very good knockabout acrobatic
work. Johnny Bells cross tunbling and
twisting somersaults are as good as any
thing in that line ever seen here. The
Batcheler sisters sing some clever songs.
accompanying themselves upon violins
and mandolins. Mcfarland and Murray
do well in an Irish comedy skit. IS
The closing burlesque. "a Pleasant
Evening" has little to recommend it.

DRANK DEADLY POISON.

house several times. But late last
night Nelson found Backstrum at
home and read the warrant. When
the warrant had been read, Backstrum
walked to corner of the room and
before the officer could divine his in
tentions, he had swallowed the poison.
