The pruning knife is badly need
ed in great many yards in the

the shrubbery grows through the
fence and extends out over the
sidewalks. No longer than yester-
day we heard a man actually
swear because his hat was in the
way of some of this overhanging
shrubbery.
A report was circulated today
in Brownsville that Mexican wo-
man, and possibly man, had been

phoned County Attorney E. K.
Goodrich, regarding a case where
a man had whipped his wife with a
rope. The man had an examining
trial before Judge Lockhart today,

A Light Hearted and Fantastic Comic

 Opera.
 'The Princess Beggar," which ap- peared at the Hyperion last evening, was pretty, and rather mirth-provok- ing. Miss Edwardes pleased more by her singing than by her comedy. A cap- ital comic character is Eddie Garvfe, as the plump rolly-polly king. His way of cooking his head on one side is irre- sistible. There is a lack of the usual formalities about the court of the king dom of Vagaria which is charming. When a baron has succeeded in mort gazing the palace and all the royal equipments, and is about to foreclose unless the prince marries his daughter, there is trouble galore, situation from which the victims are merrily extri- cated.
 The scene In the hermitage on the Island of Ferns contrasted agreeably with the greater splendor of the court scene. The costumes were elaborate, the chorus fairly pretty, and possessed of good voices,
 One was disappointed by the music, since it was not up to the standard of Robyn, composer of the songs of "The Yankee Consul"

On Mountain Climbing and Reminis-
 cences.
 It was royal welcome accorded to Rev. Dr. Harry P Nichols, formerly curate of Trinity Episcopal church last night in the parish house. The doctor was happy and so were his many friends to be able to see and talk with one another. He told "reminiscences of his life here and while on his mountain climbing in the White mountains, and in Switzerland. After the doctor had concluded refreshments were served to over 200 people.
 Dr. Nichols was connected with Trim ity for several years, and during this period he was, as he is now, hard worker and also very popular.
 His presence last night at the wom- ans guild was very fitting irasmuch as he founded 1t just fifteen years ago.

Youthful Prudence Affords Many Ad-
 vantages and Much Comfort in Old
 Age.
 In days gone by when I was young, Had his treatment once begun For my poor feet, to cure all their ills, l could have walked with perfect ease; But now am limping, limping still. Many times I've regretted this neglect. And that 1 did, oh faith, reject; But now am old and must reflect That l cannot walk easy and erect. To Dr. Welch now I will go. The pain is so severe, you know: His method right, soft and sure. My aching feet he'll quickly cure. Now list to me while I sing, Relief from pain of corns that ring; While you buy nostrums I'll be cured From pain of years I have endured: All patients treated surely find A cure for sore feet of every kind. When the feet become inflamed and
 sore,
 You cannot enjoy pleasure any more; For love of good, and avarice free, Be wise in time and list to me. If corns or bunions your feet assail. To cure them all he'll never fail; Ingrowing toe nails, strange to tell, By his treatment, 10! they are well. Long years of constant practice tell The secret of his matchless skill; His method, right and truth combined. A benediction to all mankind.
