The cold wave that set in Saturday
has continued ever since. Yesterday
was a cheerless day, with a cold,
damp northwest wind blowing, that
sent the shivers through person. and
made fires necessity. The mercury
failed to rise any to speak of. Last
night the sky cleared and very heavy
frost, the first of the season, fell upon
the land.
The mercury descended to thirty de-
grees, and froze hard, killing tender
vegetables and plants. The corn crop
was fortunately out of danger, and the
greater part of it cut.
There is liable to be another frost
tonight if it stays clear. The flowers
in Sibley park were all nipppd. Flies
and mosquitoes got hard jolt, and
ducks were started flying south.

The oldtime clap-trap and slap-stlck
horse-play style of burlesque is now a
thing of the past. and managers find that
in order to succeed they must offer the
public entertainment along legitimate
lines, and among the managers who were
among the first to recognize this fact is
SAID to be Charles H. Waldron. man.
ager of the Palace Theater. Boston. who
this season will be sole owner and direct
the fortunes OF the Trocadero BurlesquerS.
This company for eight years has ranked
with the best on the road. and Judging
from the equipment which Manager Wal
dror has given II this season, ii will equal.
II II does not surpass. all other organi-
cations on the road in the buresque field.
Manager Waldron presents this season
two new and uproariousy funny bur
lesaues. entitled college Boys and
Down on the Panama. Both pieces
will he produced under the personal di-
rection OF Mr.. Frank Pinney. the author.
who Is recognized as one of the cleverest
Irish comedians in the country. and who
has already made a reputation for him
self as writer and producer of musical
farces and burlesques. and he insures pa
irons of burlesque that the comedy ele-
men. will not be neglected. Both bur-
lesques will be beautifully staged and
costumed. The olio will include num-
Der of high-class vaudeville acts.
This bill should delight all who visit
the Gayety Theater this week, and IL
should keep the house filled at every per-
formance There will be the usual mat

notice:

OF course. this is by no means the first
attempt that has been made to force the
ladies TO doff their hats for the benefit Of
those behind. But all previous attempts
have failed and it remains to be seen
whether this one will fare any better.
There is an attempt on record. however.
which proved temporarily effective.
