December that nearly 900 lives were

The calamity excited expressions of

Chicago. When the people there re

there was talk Of building a great hos

Some money was subscribed for the

The English actress loves American

them is that they do not boo" Boo

Regarding critics, Mrs. Langtry

The use of the word troupe" in con-

another thing which the Jersey Lily
would have abolished. In England. she
says, only trained dogs are members

The New York World (Dem.) says:
"The British governments grim refusal

The Philadelphia Record (Dem.) says:
