For Which Mr.. Murray Paid $3.50
New Opera Chairs-Re-
decorations.

In the remodeling of the Philips
opera house the people of Richmond
will have a modern, up-to-date play
house in every particular. Manager
Murray intends to make it one of
the leading houses in the state, and,
with this object in view. Mr.. Edward
E. Kockrill, representing the Daniel s
scenic studios of Chicago, is in the
city. He sold Mr.. Murray a beauti-
full asbestos curtain for $3.50. He
also has the contract for putting in
new opera chairs Of the very latest
pattern, taking into consideration
comfort and design. Arrangements
have also been made for redecorating
the house and putting in a full set
of scenery.
In fact, when the work is complet-
ed, there will be no semblance to the
old Phillips. The new curtain is of
handsome design, and will be 81 per
per cent pure asbestos. Mr.. Kock-
rill is now seeing the merchants for
space on the curtain. and has found
little trouble in filing all the spaces.
Mr. Murray has a fine list of
shows booked for next season for the
new Phillips and will spare no effort
to bring all the leading attractions to
| the new Philips.
The Gennett.
This theater, under the manage
ment of Mr.. Ira Swisher, will also be
added to wherever improvement is
necessary. Mr.. Kockrill called on Mr.
Gennett in regard to new scenery, but

fore he leaves the city.
Mr.. Swisher has booked all the
leading shows and will give the pa.
irons of the house the very best OF

IN COMMON PLACE. GARB

Eighteen Kaffrs, representing seven
tribes of South Africa, passed
through the Union station yesterday
on their way to st. Louis to swell the
little army composed of all kinds and
classes that will be seen on "The
Pike"
They were in no way different from
the American negro, and in the or
dinary clothes in which they were
dressed would be hard to distinguish.
When they arrive at the exposition
they will doff their commonplace raj
ment and don their native costumes of
gay feathers and finely wrought
leather.
1t has taken nearly three years for
Mr.. Douglas, of Bulwayo, South
Africa, to collect these men, and
even then he was unable to secure
their wives, as they were afraid to
accompany their husbands. Most of
the men are farmers, but although en-
gagged in this peaceful pursuit are of
a war-like nature and are constantly
fighting among themselves. Mr..
Douglas is responsible to the British
government for them, and they will
form part of the Boer exhibit. The
tribes represented are the Betchuan-
ana, Barostsi, Zambeezia, Matabele,
Mashore, Majaiokoa and Blantyre.
Many interesting and valuable
curiosities were brought over, includ-
ing lion and tiger skins. One cane
made from a piece Of rhinoceros skin
is valued at $500. beautiful robe
made from the tails of 600 wild cats
was exhibited.

will be either Keller or Rettig In all
probability. Both of these boys have
been trying hard at the hurdles and
runs and vaults and one or the other
will make the team. 50,
If Richmond should mske a good
showing in the meet of the state high
schools, it will be one of the best
things that could happen for the
school. Nearly all of the high schools
of the state, large or small, will be
represented and besides the honor of
being the victor in the meet the win
ming team will become the object of
great interest and other schools will
seek to meet this school on the ath-
letic field.
The boys who will compose the
Richmond team will be the best ath-
letes who could be picked from the
high school boys and will enter the
meet full Of hope that at least some
of the first prizes will fall to the
Quaker City's team. - -.
