JacQueS
VAUDEVILLE.

Where, it may be pertinent to ask, can person get better value for the money expended, in the show line at least, than at the Jacques? And this week offers no exception to this rule. Never is a show given at this house, or anywhere in fact on the Poli cir cult, that there is not single act on the bill that is worth more than it costs to see the entire show. And mo- where on any vaudeville circuit, take it week in and week out, is so good q show given for the prices that are charged. Indeed, the Poli prices are smaller than they are almost anywhere else, while the shows as whole run uniformly better. One can go into a Keith or Proctor or Williams house and see no better show even though the prices run quite little higher. One should always bear in mind in visiting the Jacques and measuring show that prices are 10. 20 and 80 cents; af- ternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10.

From Oeseret News, Feb. 23rd.
 Kansas City, Mo-, Feb. 22- The remains of Lorenzo Crosby, the Mormon missionary who shot himself on a train approaching this city, were last night sent to his home at Greer, Arizona, ac- companied by c. A. Workman, local Elder.
 Ben E. Rich, president of the Southern States mission, arrived here last night. Elder Rich says that Crosby shot himself while suffering from dementia. His work in the field was good, Elder Rich says, and there was abso- lutely no cause for the deed un- less mental strain.

to his career. 1 can't help think ing that he must have been the victim of foul play"
 MRS. OLIVE CRUMP.
 Mrs. Olive Crump, nee Austin. who is the woman who lives at 353 west Fifth South street, speaks in similar strain concern ing the dead man. Said she: "I first met him in Virginia, where our family used to reside. He made his headquarters at our house for a long time and was we'll liked by all the members of my family, He always spoke in the highest terms of his wife and 1 am positive that he had no domestic troubles unless recen- tly. 1 can hardly believe that he would commit suicide, as he always expressed himself as be- ing strongly opposed to any ac- tion of that kind"
 Other Elders who were inti- mately acquainted with Elder Crosby and who speak in the highest terms of the unfortunate missionary, are H. B. Elder and Willard H. Farnes, both of whom were closely associated with him in the missionary field.
