A." at Poh's tonight, does some lively stunts in the third act, and is happy man when the curtain falls and he can in dulge in tub and a rub down after his exertions.

It occurs in one of the rooms of Sancho Miguels gambling house, in Cheyenne, a once famous place of resort for the soldiers and hangers-on about Fort Russell, Wyoming. Dick arrives on the scene in search of his sweetheart, Macita, who has been abducted by Miguel, and being denied admission to the place breaks the window with his sword and demands to know where the girl has been concealed.

aTUE pROpIGAL sON. .

The production that was presented at Polls theater on Saturday evening had a splendid cast Of characters. per haps as clever a lot of people as were ever cOngregatesi together in pro luction of the kind. While there are portions of the play that will appeal to you and call for enthusiasm. as a whole the play Is not what might be termed a genuine success. Edward Morgan creates an entirely new char aeter in the role assigned him and the conception is novel and convincing. All the other characters were well en- acted but there is something about the play that holds you of. The ah- rupt ending also does not add 10 it's beauty or arfractiveneSs.

BOUGHT A CHE FLA TICKET.

noon in che ia case. He was Roger
James the famous negro highwayman
who told such remarkable story Of
his escapades in the Philippines while
a deserter from the American Army.
James who is now serving a twelve

witness against Wong Chuck a Chinese
charged with assisting and maintain
ing lottery. James work at the Jail

ed performances by overrated eastern
companies look like thirty cents.
The play itself is a very interesting
story. 1t has a number of strong scenes
and stirring climaxes. The company
was well cast, and the performance de-
lighted an audience that packed the
house to the doors.
All the members of the company had,
apparently, cangenial roles in the play
and played them for all they were
worth, Mr.. Gum was excellent as
"Carawe" and he was well supported
by Messrs. Hernandez, Whipple and
Edwards-the latter giving his best
characterization during the week, as

Another Good role was THE Imp" by
William Daul. 1t was very good, and

satisfactorily, and the Messrs. Howe
were very capable in their. respective
roles.

The following account Of the Barry
Burns fight is from a San Francisco
paper.
With only forty-two seconds left Of
the twentieth round last night at
Woodward's Pavilion, Tommy Burns
swung his right to Dave Barry's jaw
and brought a tame battle to a timely
end. Barry fell backward and his
head hit the canvas with a bump. Be-
fore Timekeeper George Harting could
count him out, however, Alex Greggins
was in the ring from the Irishman's
corner carrying a towel and acknowl-
eding the defeat of his boy
This Virtual knockout was preceded
by fighting of very slow order. Burns
proved to be fairly clever and at foot
work he was the dancing kid" but he
had little in his armament that was
effective, while Barry on the other
hand, failed to arouse the slightest
degree of enthusiasm. Up to the fif-
teenth round there wasn't a thing ex-
citing and after the fifteenth until the
