isle of Spice"

The ever popular musical mixture,
Isle of Spice" was presented for the
third time In this city, at the Opera
house, last evening, and was greeted
most cordially, although the audience
was not as large as it should have been,
in accordance with the merits of the at
| traction.
But little need be said regarding the
play itself, for everybody is familiar
with it. 1t was the same galaxy of fem
mime beauty and shapeliness, set off by
| richness of costume and gorgeous cleo
| trical effects, and seasoned with wit
and song in way that made it most
| acceptable. To many who saw the pro-
duction. last evening, it was, as a
whole, the best that has been given in
the three times it has been seen in the
city.
Many of the old faces were seen in
the cast, and some new ones, who add
ed materially to the general improve
ment of the production, among them
being Sam Mylie. who appeared in the
role of Bompopka, 9th king of Nico-
bar. Mr.. Mylie appeared in the city,
last season, as the comedian in the
"Show Girl" and in his part, last night,
was one of the best.
Herbert Cawthorne, as Micky
OGrady. was another new one, and in
addition to being very funny, was one
| of the best comedians that has an
peared in the city. AS Asbena, the ex-
empress. Susie Forester was a decided
improvement over previous impersona-
| tions of the character.
These, with the other members of the
cast We're most pleasing, and each
song was IN success sion repeatedly en-

a mystery exists at the City build
ing, in the way of case of breaking
and entering, which occurred, Wednes-
day night. When Janitor Fisher ar
rived at the building. yesterday morn
ing. he noticed that the door leading to
the room used by the board of registra-
tion in the basement of the building,
was ajar, and upon investigation found
that it had been broken open and not
only that, but that the latch plate and
a portion of the door itself had been
torn off when the break was made. The
bolt in the lock showed that the door
had been forced. 1t is not known who
broke in the door, but it is understood
that an inquiry will be made.

The Williams family trace their an

of Ribour, whc lived about the year
400. Richard Williams, the earliest of
TIE New England progenitors, came TO
Taurton, Mass, in 1857; he was one OF
the frst purchasers from the Indians
of the territory embraced in that town
and was the principal inhabitant for
many years. The family was closely
connected by marriag. with that of
the doughty warrior Sir Oliver Crom-
well. that strict Puritan who ruled
England with an iron hand for five
years. a king in all but name. Seth
Williams whose name is on this tablet
was born in Easton, Mass, in 1856. AL
the age Of 10 ne responded to his coun-
try's call, serving faithfully through
the years of danger. He was a Min
ute man, private in various organiza-
tions and later was promoted to the
rank OF lieutenant. In lIl9, when The
country was again at peace, he came
with his two brothers to the Fort
Western settlement. Only two leading
roads were laid out at that time. one
on each side of the river. The county
road was then an unopened way, now
Winthrop street. He was man Oh
character and consequence among MS
fellowmen and filed many offices OF
trust being associated with George
Crosby in representing the town at the
General Court. He died in 1917, ana
was buried in the Riverside cemetery.

of Augusta. TO one of his sons we are

to a circus The cage was too high to
enter the mouth of the tunnel and as It
struck the roof OF the tunnel II was torn

developed yesterday that Carroll had dug
his way to freedom with, a piece OF gal
Vaulzed wire left in the jail by plumbers
who were making some repairs a few days
ago The mortar around the bricks was
soft sand @Carrolf experienced no difhculty
in looscning the bricks.
The habcas corpus proceedings begun by
Carroll and In which a hearing was to
have been held yesterday by Judge Wheeler

Richmond appeared IN court and Informed
the fudge that owing TO Carroll having
taken an unt eremonious departure from
the city Jail without leaving his address,
he was unable to produce him in court
as directed.
Attorney Emil Schurz yesterday brought
repleyin proceedings to secure possession
of the watch and chain which Carroll was
charged with stealing from S. L. Rhoades
In an Omaha saloon. Schurz produced an
order for the watch and chain signed by
Carroll. The hearing on the replevin ac-

being made defendant, Omaha officers
were on hand yesterday with requisition
papers to take Carroll back to Omaha in
the event OF the court denying the writ OF
