Happy Hooligau Coming

Il II K E az sse -
I The announcement at the Aud
itorium on Tuesday evening, Feb.
9th. is the ever popular production
OF the musical farce comedy Happy
Hooligan, - which comes to us this
season as an entirely new produc-
ton, embellished with new and
tasteful scenery, and costumes of
richness and value that are en-
terely beyond anything ever before
seen i'll farce comedy. AS the cos
tunes and scenery are new, so are
also the specialties, music, dances
and ensembles. The entire pro-
duction has been made by the man
agement glittering and gorgeous
spectacle, and no expense has been
spared to have everything of the
very highest class. There is a
cheerfullness and gaity about Mr..
Opper's genial hobo which, when
put into dramatic form, makes his
influence we'll nigh irresistible.
When the curtain goes up the most
chronic case of detection gives way
to good feeling, and the misan-
thrope becomes at once creature
who views life with the rays of the
sun shining in his mind. There
are no dumps, blue devils, vapours.
megrins or hypochondriasis in
Happy Hooligan." Instead there
is life, alacrity of spirit and pure hi
larity, which never fails to smooth
the ruffied brow of care and palliate
melancholy. "Happy Hooligan'
should be taken at frequent inter
vals, as the price is within reach of
all. Billy A. Ward will be seen
this season as the hobo, and Eva
Davenport as Rose Morriarity.
Others of prominence in the COM
pany are Otis Fl. Wood, Matthews
& Law, the Novelty Trio and Chas.
Saunders.

to take the lighting plant and that he should be the president of the concern This revelation was submitted to the gen. eral conference at Brigham City and was there rejected. Many of the Mormons who opposed the transaction were disfel- lowshpped.
 Do you believe a revelation was ever received on the question of light plant?' asked Senator Beveridge.
 The witness said that it was not im- probable that the report that a revela- ton was received, was submitted for the purpose of furthering the scheme of the mayor and the president of the stake.
 Concerning Shoots Power.
 The witness when asked concerning Mir Shoots power to prevent the violations of the law in regard to polygamous cohab- itation, said:
 By one word Smoot could either stop what is going on or cease to be an aposte''
 He had gotten up the protest against Senator Shoot at the suggestion of Dr. w. M. Padden. the first signer of the protest, witness having prepared the pro test against Brigham Roberts. and being familiar with the proceedings.
 Mir Critchlow said that he had ob- tained most of the signatures to the pro- test. Senator Beveridge asked If any one had signed the protest without reading 1t. "One I believe, was the answer, Ezra Thompson, mayor"
 MT. Critchlow was questioned in regard to a former statement that MT. Shoot was reputed not to be polygamist, and asked If he could not state positively that MT. Shoot is not polygamist.
 Never Been Raised.

 Mir Critchlow said he believed MT. Smith would not permit a person to be- come an apostle who is not a polygamist, or expected to become one, and MT. Shoot became an apostle before MT. Smith be- came president. and witness says he does not believe Shoot to be polygamist.
 The names of John R. Winder, President Hatch and President Clough were to show there were persons who were not poly gamsts, but have attained high positions during MT. Smiths reign as president. MT. Critchlow responded that they were ex- captions because of their great popularity, and the fact that it was well known their wives had greater influence over them than the church. Each of the men men, tioned, he said, is said to have an excep- tional wife.
 Shows General Feeling.
 To show the general feeling of Gentiles toward the Mormons. MT. Vancott brought out in the cross-examina- -t.r1 t,o1 tol f1 Ia polygamists as members of the constitu- tional convention, and that he had been on the stump with John Henry Smith, who is a polygamist.
