The Bijou Theater Stock company made It's first appearance last night, in "The Charity Ball." comedy drama in four acts by David Belasco and Henry De Mile. Mrs. Pauline H. Boyle has secured for this popular little theater a company of artists who have already established splendid regulations for themselves and not one member of the cast but has played in the company of the best known members of the profess sion. The company is larger than has ever been played at the Bijou, and it's excellence will place this theater with the best stock houses anywhere. "The Charity Ball' was very happy medi- un through which to introduce to the audience the new company of enter tainment producers. 'Tis a human, clean little play with a lot of amusing lines among the rest and not one metn- Der of the cast failed to get the best out of every line.
 Mrs. Boyle, the new manager, in- tends to keep the best plays before the public and put them on in the best way possible,
 The stage was very attractive for each act of the play last night, and the gowns were very attractive. There was an unusually large audience pres ent to welcome the new company, and they were most cordial. There will be matinees to-day, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and 8 performance every ev- ening.
 J. Gordon Edwards will direct the productions.

Must Shorten Divisions.

Chiekasha, I. T., Feb. 20.-"The bill
which has been introduced in congress
and which at present seems most like
ly to pass, will mean that we will have
to shorten all our divisions"
This statement was made to the
Chickasha Commercial club by H. U.
Nudge, second vice president and gem
eral manager of the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific railroad. Mr.. Nudge
was discussing with the club the de-
cision of the Rock Island to move the
division headquarters from this city
to Ell Reno. He said that the law in
PRODUCED in congress making 1t penal
offense to keep a railroad crew on the
road longer than sixteen hours made
necessary the shortening of the di-
visions. hTe run from here to Fort
Worth is 17S miles. The plan of the
Rock Island is to move the division
from here to Ell Reno and establish
another division between this city and
Fort Worth.

Make a Chick to Postmaster

Think Any Old Receptacle

-Leavenworth. Kan, Feb. 2o-The mail
box which the postoffice department
approved for use on all rural routes
out of Leavenworth, is not meeting
with the approval of the residents on
the various routes. Postmaster Willard
sent the names of all the residents to
the department at Washington some
months ago, and the authorities there
sent letters to the persons stating that
if they did not possess the approved
box by April Is, their mail would not
be delivered to them, and would be left
at the postoffices in Leavenworth or
other postoffiees.
The approved box costs from 81 to
81, and this is the objection the farm
ers are finding. Instead of purchasing
an approved mail box, which is govern
ed by the postal laws. they prefer to
have an old cigar box or any other
kind of receptacle. But the common,
handmade mail boxes will be no good
after April Is. The postoffice authors
ties DO not expect that many of the
farmers will hold out long, for the
trouble of calling for their mail Will
soon compel them to secure the APP
proved box. After that time the rural
carriers are requested not to deliver
letters or other mail matter until the
residents conform to the requirements
of the department.
