"a POOR RELATION" At
OPERA HOUSE TONIGHT.

"a Poor Relation" was first brought
into prominence by the greatest OF
all legitimate comedians, Sol Smith
Russell, and since produced by him 1t
has been counted one Of the most
staple of the American plays. AS a
literary composition, it Is 80 unstudied
and so faultlessly arranged that Its
success is not dependent upon dra-
matte situation. The continued sue
cess of "A Poor Relation" shows that
popular taste appreciates something
more than vaudeville, or the growing
WEAKNESS Of plays which rely upon a
dazzling array of chorus girls or spec
tacular scenic display. The play may
be aptly described as an exquisite lit
tie love romance, dealing In char
acters Of everyday hfe.- 1t is the
type Of play that Is perhaps the very
best seen on the road. 1t is comedy
pure and sweet, and at the same time
amusing and interesting. It teaches
q wholesome lesson; It leaves no bad
Impressions. but rather an abiding
pleasure that benefits and inspires and
rests those who see and hear It. Few
better things will be seen here the
coming season. At the Opera House
tonight, Thursday, April II.

District Foreman Sullivan and l.. s
Allen of Denver, representative of the
Wade-Nicholson Hollow Brick Arch
company, returned last night from the
west with engine No. 1881. in which
a hollow-brick arch was placed some
time ago, the gentlemen spending some
time watching the results. 1t vas
found that the arch assisted greatly in
the consumption Of the cinders Of the
coal used and it is believed the ap-
pliance is a good one Mr.. Allen has
gone to Cheyenne to install n of the
arches in a switch engine in the yards
there. J. H. Grove, the engineer Of
tests, who was here watching pro-
gress for several days. has returned to
his headquarters at Omaha.

Studying New STAFF System.

Yesterday Assistant Superintendent
W. c. McKeown, Chief Dispatcher T.
J. Foley and a number of Union Pa
cifc dispatchers from the office here,
went to Buford in McKeown's private
car where some time was spent in
studying the Few staff system of NOV
ing trains which has been established
between Buford and Hermosa and will
go into service in a few days, says the
Cheyenne Tribune. BY this system
train orders are done away with and
each train carried a steel STAFF which
gives them the right Of way over the
track on which the train is travelling.
Machines are located at each end Of
these sections Of track and right OF
way over the track is held by a train
crew until the train reaches the sta
ton and the stan is placed in the ma
chine. The operation Of the system on
Sherman hill will be watched with
great interest.

Train Stopped for Procession.

Those who have been quarreling
about the railroad crossing being block
ed so much will be glad to read Of n
incident that came to the attention OF
a reporter for The Republican. While
a funeral procession was passing from
the West Side to the cemetery a freight
train was in the act Of starting east
ward. The Waterman in the tower had
his bars down, but noting the near ap-
proach to the crossing of the funeral
procession, he called a brakeman's at
tention and the latter promptly stopped
the train and permitted the funeral par
ty to proceed. The train was In mo-
ton when the signalman called the
trainman's attention to the hearse.

BUILDING Loadlno Platforms.


The Topeka Copper company. own
ing some valuable claims in the
Holmes mining district, is having load.
ing platforms erected at Centennial.

Of copper ore from the Maiden and
other claims owned by the company
and which will be shipped to a smelter.
The railroad will reach Centennial by
the time the Copper company is ready
to begin hauling the ore from the mine.
and a carload will be sent to Denver

bier company is loading at a point this
side of Centennial, but with the compile
ton of the line to that point the load
ing place will be changed to Centeu-
NAL to ave a considerable wagon haul.
The ore prospect promises to be q
bright one for the railroad company
from the very first.

A few days ago The Republican not
ed that r. D. Stewart, the superintend-
ent, and /. w. Emmons, the general au-
ditor, had entered into a wager about
the time Of the completion Of the Lara
mic Plains line to Centennial. Some
how the Greek steel gangs got hold OF
the matter, increasing the amount Mr..
Stewart is likely to win to $3.50, and If
he wins, as seems quite probable now,
he will be forced to send a few kegs

this case than to win," he said this
morning, "for Emmons will be dead

COMPLIMENTS ON STAND
AGAINST RUBBISH FIRES

The Republican has received many
compliments on the stand taken against
the burning Of rubbish in the city lin
its, but there are no compliments due
the city authorities for their stand In
the matter. They simply stand around
and permit some close-fisted individual
to stink up the whole town in order to
save a few cents. 1t is difficult to see
where there is much more danger from
flying brands from a burning Ice house
than there is from a burning garbage
or manure pile.
