"A Texas Steer"

One of the best things that has been
seen in the Opera house for the winter
WAS Hoyt's "A Texas Steer" which
was presented, Saturday afternoon and
evening. The play Was alive with
good natured satire. sparkling with
wit. and full of fun, and there was not
Il slow character in it. A feature of
the production was the male quartet,
and the fact that they received five re-
calls tells pretty plainly what the au-
dience thought of them.

The Observationist,

once upon a time the judge of a GER
tam court had brought before him a sus-
plcious character who had no visible
means of support. What is your bust
ness?' said his bonor II am an obserya
ZIONIST. The judge looked at him in sur
prise. What is an obscrvationist? ., The
prisoner looked indignant to think that
the legal gentleman did not know what
the term meant. AN observationist your
honor Is one who takes observations
during the day. to see what he can steal
during the night" So the ohservationist
of the Journal will look around the city

kind OF an address they heard an able
scholarly discourse filed with good
points, showing that the fools of one
generation were the wise men of another.

Book of Nahum: The chariots shall

We always welcome the friends Of our
childhood, and while sitting in the Opera
house Wednesday afternoon we in fancy
welcomed the friends of childhood as the
various characters OF Uncle Tom came
upon the boards. Plays may come and

Uncle Tom hasn't grown a bit older iii
the last 40 years, and Topsy hasn't

the old friends are all just the same.

If one dies after 4 lingering illness it
does not shock us to learn of it; but
when we so out and learn that our neigh

ways asks; himself if such one had been
thoughtful enough while enjoying health
to prepare for the futurc-not for himself,
but for the loved ones left behind Did
he exercise prudence ana have bank

Many Of the plants which early in
